these_o thing_n my_o thought_n do_v concur_v with_o you_o i_o present_v this_o paper_n to_o you_o desire_v you_o if_o you_o think_v fit_a to_o cause_v it_o to_o be_v print_v for_o my_o part_n i_o date_n not_o think_v it_o worth_a print_n nor_o if_o i_o do_v do_v i_o know_v how_o to_o get_v it_o do_v be_v a_o private_a gentleman_n in_o the_o country_n that_o never_o be_v in_o print_n nor_o now_o otherwise_o ambition_n of_o it_o then_o that_o i_o may_v tell_v the_o world_n how_o much_o i_o be_o sir_n your_o most_o humble_a servant_n n._n n._n octobe_a 19_o 1687._o sir_n among_o all_o the_o polemic_a discourse_n that_o be_v abroad_o betwixt_o the_o church_n of_o england_n and_o the_o church_n of_o rome_n i_o wonder_v that_o some_o thing_n be_v not_o object_v by_o the_o papist_n against_o the_o church_n of_o england_n which_o methinks_v she_o be_v very_o obnoxious_a to_o and_o which_o i_o will_v glad_o be_v able_a to_o answer_v if_o object_v and_o because_o i_o know_v you_o to_o be_v a_o zealous_a son_n of_o the_o church_n of_o england_n and_o as_o able_a as_o any_o body_n to_o defend_v she_o in_o her_o principle_n and_o practice_n i_o apply_v myself_o to_o you_o for_o satisfaction_n herein_o nor_o shall_v i_o have_v give_v you_o this_o trouble_n but_o that_o i_o find_v our_o vicar_n who_o be_v no_o very_o mean_a man_n neither_o his_o part_n be_v better_a in_o proportion_n then_o his_o preferment_n be_v hard_o put_v to_o it_o to_o give_v i_o a_o satisfactory_a answer_n we_o charge_v the_o papist_n with_o idolatry_n in_o worship_v image_n and_o picture_n of_o our_o saviour_n and_o his_o cross_n etc._n etc._n but_o in_o the_o mean_a time_n we_o do_v not_o consider_v that_o we_o may_v as_o well_o be_v blame_v ourselves_o for_o bow_v at_o the_o name_n of_o jesus_n bow_v to_o the_o altar_n kneel_v at_o the_o lord_n prayer_n at_o the_o end_n of_o other_o prayer_n and_o put_v off_o our_o hat_n at_o church_n when_o no_o divine_a service_n there_o etc._n etc._n the_o first_o of_o which_o viz._n bow_v at_o the_o name_n of_o jesus_n be_v establish_v by_o a_o cannon_n and_o the_o rest_n be_v so_o much_o the_o constant_a practice_n of_o the_o church_n of_o england_n that_o i_o never_o know_v either_o bishop_n or_o dignify_v clergyman_n or_o any_o other_o think_v worthy_a to_o be_v such_o but_o those_o that_o practise_v they_o i_o expect_v you_o will_v tell_v i_o that_o there_o can_v be_v no_o hurt_n in_o these_o thing_n for_o that_o when_o we_o hear_v the_o name_n of_o jesus_n it_o put_v we_o in_o mind_n of_o our_o bless_a saviour_n to_o who_o we_o do_v the_o reverence_n of_o bowing_n for_o bow_v to_o the_o altar_n or_o communion-table_n that_o be_v the_o place_n whereon_o the_o bread_n and_o wine_n be_v consecrate_a and_o where_o the_o sacrament_n of_o the_o lord_n supper_n be_v administer_v and_o thereby_o our_o saviour_n and_o his_o passion_n particular_o commemorate_a and_o therefore_o sure_o to_o pay_v a_o reference_n to_o that_o place_n can_v have_v no_o harm_n in_o it_o for_o kneel_v at_o the_o lord_n prayer_n too_o in_o conclusion_n of_o other_o prayer_n it_o be_v the_o form_n of_o prayer_n that_o christ_n himself_o teach_v we_o and_o sanctify_v with_o his_o own_o lip_n and_o to_o do_v a_o reverence_n to_o he_o when_o we_o pronounce_v those_o word_n can_v have_v no_o hurt_n in_o it_o one_o will_v think_v and_o for_o put_v off_o our_o hat_n in_o church_n when_o no_o divine_a service_n there_o sure_o that_o can_v be_v no_o harm_n neither_o to_o pay_v a_o reverence_n in_o that_o place_n that_o be_v consecrate_v and_o set_v apart_o for_o the_o worship_n of_o the_o deity_n these_o thing_n seem_v pausible_a and_o have_v along_o time_n pase_v for_o currant_n but_o for_o my_o part_n when_o i_o consider_v what_o difference_n there_o be_v betwixt_o our_o bow_v at_o the_o name_n of_o jesus_n and_o the_o papist_n bow_v to_o the_o image_n or_o picture_n of_o jesus_n i_o can_v find_v none_o but_o this_o viz._n the_o difference_n of_o the_o outward_a sense_n by_o which_o the_o thought_n of_o our_o saviour_n be_v convey_v to_o our_o understanding_n for_o as_o upon_o sight_n of_o his_o effigy_n the_o papist_n worship_n so_o upon_o hear_v of_o his_o name_n we_o worship_n also_o it_o be_v true_a this_o worship_n of_o we_o can_v be_v call_v idolatry_n the_o signification_n of_o the_o word_n will_v bear_v it_o but_o i_o take_v the_o venom_n of_o idolatry_n to_o be_v a_o misplace_v worship_n and_o if_o the_o papist_n in_o bow_v to_o that_o which_o represent_v our_o saviour_n to_o his_o sense_n of_o see_v be_v guilty_a of_o it_o i_o doubt_v when_o by_o the_o sound_n of_o his_o name_n jesus_n he_o be_v represent_v to_o my_o sense_n of_o hear_v and_o i_o worship_n also_o i_o be_o hardly_o innocent_a in_o bow_v to_o the_o altar_n too_o because_o the_o sacrament_n of_o the_o lord_n supper_n be_v there_o administer_v and_o the_o passion_n of_o our_o saviour_n be_v there_o commemorate_a what_o do_v i_o less_o than_o the_o papist_n bow_v to_o the_o crucifix_n whereby_o the_o passion_n of_o our_o saviour_n be_v to_o he_o more_o sensible_o represent_v and_o if_o bow_v to_o the_o altar_n because_o that_o sacrament_n be_v there_o administer_v why_o not_o to_o the_o font_n also_o where_o the_o other_o sacrament_n of_o baptism_n be_v also_o administer_v some_o will_v excuse_v this_o bow_v to_o the_o altar_n by_o call_v it_o bow_v to_o the_o east_n and_o pretend_v to_o give_v some_o insignificant_a reason_n why_o we_o shall_v do_v so_o other_o will_v tell_v you_o of_o a_o relative_a holiness_n in_o place_n and_o thing_n and_o excuse_v it_o that_o way_n but_o i_o will_v ask_v if_o bow_v to_o the_o east_n be_v the_o reason_n why_o no_o such_o bow_v in_o church_n where_o the_o communion-table_n stand_v in_o the_o body_n of_o the_o church_n if_o because_o of_o the_o relative_a holiness_n why_o have_v not_o the_o font_n as_o good_a a_o title_n to_o this_o relative_a holiness_n and_o consequent_o to_o the_o same_o respect_n the_o altar_n have_v and_o what_o be_v this_o relative_a holiness_n mere_a in_o any_o thing_n than_o its_o be_v consecrate_a and_o set_v a_o part_n for_o sacred_a uses_n and_o must_v we_o worship_n anything_o for_o this_o upon_o the_o same_o reason_n the_o parson_n may_v by_o degree_n challenge_v some_o sort_n of_o extraordinary_a respect_n to_o themselves_o be_v by_o their_o ordination_n set_v apart_o for_o sacred_a service_n methinks_v be_v better_a for_o the_o church_n of_o england_n to_o speak_v plain_a english_a and_o confess_v she_o bow_n be_v to_o the_o altar_n for_o the_o same_o reason_n the_o papist_n do_v they_o do_v it_o because_o they_o hold_v that_o after_o consecration_n the_o wafer_n and_o wine_n be_v become_v the_o real_a body_n and_o blood_n of_o christ_n so_o that_o the_o real_a christ_n be_v present_a there_o and_o this_o without_o all_o doubt_n be_v the_o beginning_n of_o it_o in_o the_o church_n of_o england_n we_o have_v it_o from_o rome_n and_o in_o truth_n we_o keep_v it_o still_o upon_o the_o same_o reason_n they_o do_v though_o we_o conceal_v and_o will_v not_o own_v it_o the_o real_a presence_n that_o we_o hold_v in_o the_o sacrament_n what_o to_o make_v of_o it_o i_o can_v imagine_v but_o transubstantiation_n or_o somewhat_o yet_o more_o strange_a for_o what_o difference_n be_v there_o betwixt_o the_o real_a christ_n be_v present_a by_o the_o transubstantiate_a power_n of_o the_o popish-priest_n consecration_n &_o christ_n being_n real_o present_a by_o the_o as_o unintelligible_a power_n of_o out_o church_n of_o england_n priest_n consecration_n be_v it_o not_o as_o great_a a_o miracle_n for_o a_o church_n of_o england_n priest_n by_o his_o word_n of_o consecration_n to_o fetch_v down_o christ_n from_o heaven_n and_o to_o circumscribe_v his_o omni-present_a deity_n to_o the._n communion-table_n as_o for_o the_o popish-priest_n by_o his_o consecration_n to_o translate_v the_o bread_n and_o wine_n into_o christ_n real_a body_n and_o blood_n and_o when_o we_o have_v his_o real_a presence_n there_o how_o come_v it_o that_o in_o the_o sacrament_n we_o real_o receive_v his_o body_n and_o his_o blood_n it_o must_v be_v by_o transubstantiation_n sure_a or_o somewhat_o less_o intelligible_a even_o then_o that_o now_o that_o there_o be_v a_o real_a presence_n in_o the_o sacrament_n and_o that_o we_o receive_v the_o body_n and_o blood_n of_o christ_n very_o and_o indeed_o in_o the_o opinion_n of_o the_o church_n of_o england_n i_o
