twenty_o other_o due_n all_o but_o one_o at_o the_o people_n charge_n and_o of_o the_o due_n that_o be_v so_o charge_v one_o be_v the_o flesh_n of_o the_o expiatory_a sacrifice_n and_o these_o sacrifice_n be_v require_v for_o above_o fifty_o kind_n of_o sin_n but_o that_o which_o i_o now_o insist_v upon_o be_v not_o the_o greatness_n of_o the_o expense_n which_o the_o law_n charge_v upon_o the_o jew_n but_o that_o all_o their_o office_n of_o love_n and_o charity_n be_v so_o circumstantiate_v by_o the_o law_n that_o they_o who_o have_v the_o best_a inclination_n to_o these_o duty_n in_o the_o general_n must_v of_o necessity_n be_v much_o encumber_v by_o the_o circumstance_n which_o the_o law_n require_v in_o the_o exact_a performance_n of_o they_o 5._o add_v hereunto_o the_o numerous_a rite_n prescribe_v to_o the_o jew_n in_o the_o very_a culture_n of_o their_o body_n and_o that_o in_o the_o very_o minute_a thing_n they_o can_v not_o so_o much_o as_o cut_v their_o hair_n or_o shave_v their_o beard_n but_o under_o the_o restraint_n and_o scruple_n of_o law_n levit._n 19.27_o they_o be_v not_o beget_v they_o be_v not_o bear_v without_o a_o ritual_a stain_n upon_o

to_o be_v redeem_v with_o a_o certain_a price_n if_o it_o be_v a_o son_n and_o her_o first-born_a and_o now_o that_o i_o have_v mention_v purification_n what_o shall_v i_o say_v of_o the_o numerous_a case_n wherein_o the_o jew_n be_v make_v unclean_a by_o the_o sentence_n and_o judgement_n of_o the_o law_n what_o shall_v i_o say_v of_o the_o several_a wash_n the_o several_a sacrifice_n sometime_o require_v to_o purge_v and_o make_v they_o clean_o again_o what_o shall_v i_o say_v of_o their_o confinement_n and_o separation_n from_o the_o congregation_n during_o the_o time_n they_o be_v unclean_a the_o jew_n observe_v that_o there_o be_v eleven_o general_a fountain_n so_o they_o style_v they_o of_o pollution_n and_o these_o general_n be_v almost_o infinite_a in_o their_o particular_a

he_o have_v touch_v in_o these_o and_o innumerable_a other_o case_n he_o be_v by_o the_o law_n pronounce_v unclean_a and_o be_v unclean_a upon_o pain_n of_o death_n to_o purge_v himself_o sometime_o by_o sacrifice_n sometime_o by_o the_o water_n of_o separation_n always_o by_o bathe_v himself_o in_o water_n time_n will_v fail_v i_o if_o i_o shall_v insist_v upon_o all_o the_o minute_n and_o

what_o i_o have_v say_v they_o can_v not_o legal_o worship_n god_n without_o abundance_n of_o nice_a observance_n whole_o indifferent_a in_o themselves_o but_o hard_a and_o troublesome_a in_o performance_n they_o can_v not_o discharge_v their_o moral_a office_n towards_o man_n without_o most_o scrupulous_a observation_n in_o point_n of_o circumstance_n of_o time_n and_o place_n and_o other_o minute_n consideration_n they_o can_v not_o manage_v the_o least_o affair_n they_o can_v not_o do_v the_o common_a thing_n without_o the_o scruple_n of_o law_n and_o conscience_n for_o they_o can_v not_o build_v or_o inhabit_v their_o house_n they_o can_v not_o so_o much_o as_o clothe_v themselves_o they_o can_v not_o plough_v nor_o sow_v nor_o plant_v they_o can_v not_o reap_v or_o gather_v in_o their_o fruit_n they_o can_v not_o eat_v or_o prepare_v their_o meat_n they_o can_v scarce_o discharge_v any_o one_o action_n religious_a moral_a civil_a or_o natural_a but_o under_o the_o check_n of_o a_o positive_a law_n and_o that_o which_o be_v further_o to_o be_v observe_v be_v that_o the_o most_o exact_a performance_n of_o the_o letter_n of_o all_o these_o positive_a law_n may_v leave_v they_o vicious_a and_o immoral_a full_a of_o hypocrisy_n pride_n and_o malice_n slave_n to_o the_o world_n and_o their_o own_o lust_n and_o that_o where_o it_o leave_v they_o in_o this_o condition_n it_o do_v neither_o improve_v they_o in_o themselves_o nor_o recommend_v they_o to_o god_n acceptance_n much_o less_o procure_v eternal_a life_n which_o plain_o appear_v from_o the_o scribe_n and_o pharisee_n who_o although_o the_o most_o exact_a observer_n of_o all_o these_o ritual_a institution_n be_v most_o impure_a and_o foul_a within_o and_o least_o acceptable_a unto_o god_n yet_o after_o all_o it_o be_v not_o needless_a and_o therefore_o no_o unreasonable_a thing_n that_o a_o people_n among_o who_o god_n himself_o in_o the_o first_o age_n of_o their_o polity_n hold_v the_o place_n of_o a_o civil_a magistrate_n a_o people_n prone_a unto_o idolatry_n and_o live_v among_o idolatrous_a nation_n shall_v be_v thus_o bind_v up_o by_o positive_a law_n in_o every_o
