Together with an answer to a letter which was written and sent by one of them to a family of note and quality in the said county, which pleaded for perfection in this life, and for quaking. By Samuel Eaton, teacher of the Church of Christ heretofore meeting at Duckenfield, now in Stockport in Cheshire.

therefore_o these_o person_n have_v another_o intent_n and_o scope_n in_o their_o question_n it_o be_v our_o lord_n day-meeting_n and_o our_o christian_a fast_n and_o thanksgiving-day_n that_o we_o

at_o godliness_n for_o if_o they_o can_v but_o destroy_v all_o form_n the_o power_n will_v fall_v with_o it_o for_o though_o the_o form_n be_v but_o the_o shell_n yet_o it_o preserve_v the_o kernel_n the_o power_n be_v put_v forth_o in_o a_o form_n and_o if_o they_o can_v but_o acquit_v and_o discharge_v the_o body_n from_o service_n and_o religious_a exercise_n the_o spirit_n will_v not_o bear_v

day_n and_o hour_n no_o nor_o yet_o keep_v alive_a any_o long_a time_n in_o any_o but_o for_o the_o better_a justification_n of_o set_a time_n day_n and_o hour_n day_n concern_v the_o first_o day_n for_o god_n service_n let_v it_o be_v consider_v first_o that_o time_n be_v a_o perpetual_a adjunct_n of_o action_n there_o be_v no_o action_n can_v be_v do_v but_o it_o must_v be_v do_v in_o time_n it_o be_v therefore_o a_o necessary_a adjunct_n of_o divine_a and_o spiritual_a action_n so_o that_o if_o god_n will_v enjoin_v a_o worship_n and_o a_o service_n to_o be_v perform_v to_o he_o he_o must_v needs_o enjoin_v the_o time_n in_o which_o he_o will_v have_v it_o perform_v second_o let_v it_o be_v due_o weigh_v that_o both_o the_o apostle_n themselves_o be_v wont_a to_o meet_v upon_o
