As
that

a
Ringleader

a
Keeper
up
of
Meetings
of
dangerous
Consequence
,
and
destructive
to

There
was
a
Sort
of

who
under

,
who
seemed
to
build
upon
the
King's
Declarations
from
and
under
Colour
of
this
hatched
Treasons
and
Rebellions
,
The
Face
of
things
was
much
altered
since
the

Assizes
,
That
all
Sects
under

did
violate

hatched

not
that

have
any

you

seeing

was

the

and
you
refused
to
take
it
;
it
was

I
will
not
trouble
you
now
to

to

I
must
do
that

I

I

is

how

you

he

only
excepts
against
it
because
of

you

I
see
you
will
not

,
nor
conform
,
nor
be
subject
,
and
you
think
we
deal
severely
with
you
,
but
if
you
would
be

we
should
not

Oh

I
can

you
many
up

F.
H.
Well
,
you
will
meet
in
great
Numbers
,
and
do
increase
,
but
there
is
a
new
Statute
which
will
make
you
fewer
.
F.

You
are
put
out
of
the

Protection
and
the
Benefit
of

your

are
confiscate
to

your
Goods

forever

you
to

if

Friends
,
as
to
matter
of
Words
,
you
must
not
expect
much
more
from
me
,
neither
is
there
any
great
Need
of
it
,
as
to
speak
of
Matters
of
Faith
to
you
,
who
are
satisfied
only
that
you
remember
my
dear
Love
to
all
Friends
who
enquire
of
me
▪
for
I
ever
loved
Friends
well
,
or
any
in
whom
Truth
appeared
;
and
truly
God
will
own
his
People
,
as
he
hath
everhither
to
done
&
as
we
have
daily
witnessed
,
for
no
sooner
had
they
made
that
Act
against
us
for
Banishment
(
to
the
great
Suffering
of
many
good
Friends
)
but
the
Lord
stirred
up
Enemies
against
them
,
even
three
great
Nations
,
whereby
the
Violence
of
their
Hands
was
taken
of
;
I
say
again
,
God
will
own
his
People
,
even
all
those
that
are
faithful
;
and
as
for
me
,
I
am
well
,
and
content
to
dye
,
I
am
not
at
all
afraid
of
Death
;
and
truly
one
Thing
was
of
late
in
my
Heart
,
and
that
I
intended
to
have
writ
to
and
others
,
even
that
which
I
have
observed
,
which
Thing
is
,
that
this
Generation
passeth
fast
away
;
we
see
many
good
and
precious
Friends
within
these
few
Years
have
been
taken
from
us
,
and
therefore
Friends
had
need
to
watch
,
and
be
very
f●i●hful
,
so
that
we
may
leave
a
good
and
not
a
bad
Savour
to
the
next
succeeding
Gene●ation
;
for
you
see
that
it
is
but
a
little
time
that
any
of
u●
have
to
stay
here
.
He
was
content
to
dye
,
and
that
he
was
ready
,
and
praised
God
for
those
many
sweet
Enjoyments
and
Refreshments
he
had
received
on
that
his
Prison-house-Bed
,
whereon
he
lay
freely
forgiving
all
who
had
a
Hand
in
his
Restraint
.
This
was
the
Place
of
my
first
Imprisonment
for
the
Truth
here
at
this
Town
,
and
if
it
be
the
Place
of
my
laying
down
the
Body
,
I
am
content
.
He
hath
done
it
That
the
Lord
by
his
mighty
Power
might
preserve
them
out
of
all
such
Things
as
would
spot
and
defile
.
I
have
sought
the
Way
of
the
Lord
from
a
Child
,
and
lived
innocently
as
among
Men
;
and
if
any
enquire
concerning
my
latter
End
,
let
them
know
,
that
I
dye
in
the
Faith
in
which
I
lived
,
and
suffered
for

they

them

that
steal
my

thus
saith
the

the

hath
never

he
that

let
him
tell

Magistrates
,
That
if
any
Hypocrite
shall
presume
to
speak
a
Word
in
the
Name
of
the
Lord
,
which
he
hath
not

That

may
be
preserved
for
the
breeding
of
able
Ministers
,
to
preach
the
Word
,
and
hold
out
the
Sacraments

Hold
not
that
up
which
the
Lord
hath
cursed
;
for
that
which
is
Natural
cannot
lead
up
to
God
That
you
turn
not
back
to
build
again
that
which
God
is
destroying
,
who
threw
out

Power
after
another
,

they
would

limit
the

Way
to
walk
in
all
,
and
till
you
give
him
all
Power
and
Honour
,
to
rule
over
his
Church
and
People
,
that
they
may
serve
the
Lord
in
Freedom
of
Spirit
,
and
not
in
the
Flesh
They
ought
to
have
a
Care
of
their
peoples
Souls
,
in
keeping
them
from
Infection
of
Idolatry
and
Blasphemy
you
are
to
inform
them
of
the
Dangerousness
of
great
Meetings
in
whose
Opinions
are
Blasphemous
,
Paganish
,
Anti-scriptural
and
Anti-Christian
,
even
as
the
former
:
the
greatest
thing
that
troubles
you
,
is
Printing
and
Publishing
Books
,
many
thousands
concerning
Blasphemous
,
and
Heretical
,
and
Anti-magistratical
Opinions
,
tending
to
unchristian
People
,
and
disorder
the
People
of
the
Nations
,
and
to
bring
in
and
this
you
present
unto
them
to
provoke
their
zeal
against
them
.
And
the
Sacraments
which
is
appointed
in
the
Scripture
,
and
in
Answer
to
a
Petition
did
deny
them
.
Another
thing
you
call
Heresie
and
Blasphemy
,
is
,
that
we
say
,
that
Christ
hath
enlightened
all
men
;
but
The
Light
of
God
that
is
in
all
men
;
that
is
,
to
wit
,
natural
Conscience
,
that
it
is
sufficient
,
if
we
give
heed
unto
it
,
to
discover
Sin
and
turn
our
Minds
towards
God
,
and
that
this
Light
within
is
the
Grace
of
God
,
and
that
it
is
Christ
in
us
.
Another
thing
you
present
to
be
Blasphemy
and
Heresie
,
is
,
that
the
Worship
that
is
performed
in
with
those
Ministers
that
sing
Psalms
,
baptize
Infants
,
wear
double
Cuffes
,
Boot
Hose
toops
,
take
Tythes
,
say
men
shall
never
be
perfect
in
this
World
,
and
that
say
,
the
Letter
is
the
Light
,
and
the
Letter
is
the
Word
;
and
that
Salvation
is
in
the
Scripture
,
and
that
call
the
Gospel
,
are
Seducers
,
and
no
Ministers
of
the
Word
,
but
shew
forth
the
Spirit
of
Error
.

was
a
Natural
Conscience

kept
from
Sin

did
restrain

he
that
had

restraining
Grace
(
as
they
called
it

he
was
but
a
tame
Devil

the
Saints
did
believe
in
Christ
,
and
so
Sin
was
not
imputed
,
but
his
Righteousness
was
accounted
to
them
,
and
so
I
must
seek
him
in
the
Means
,
as
Prayer
and
receiving
the

,
I
must
believe
he
suffered
for

I
was
a

was

that
the

still

Sure
this
is
not
the

of

it

look

spoken
now

only
the
Letter

was
legal
to
obey
out

Fear

that
was

there
was
an

Obedience

was
Son-like
Obedience

Christ
had
done
all
.
out
of
the
Fellowship

I
saw
the
Ground
was
the

,
The
Letter
was
the
Word

Rule
,
and
Christ
,
at
a
Distance
without
,
had
done
all

I
heard

Sorrow

Pain

in
the
Morning
I
wished

Evening

wished

I
had
no
Rest
,

Trouble
on

Side
;

all
that
ever
I
had
done

judged

was
accursed
;
and
then
the
Lyon
suffered
Hunger
,
and
the
Seals
were
opened
,
and
seven
Thunders
uttered
their
Voices
;
mine
Eyes
were
dim
with
crying
,
my
Flesh
did
fail
of
Fatness
,
my
Bones
were
dryed
,
and
my
Sinnews
shrunk
;
I
became
a
Proverb
to
all
,
yea
,
to
them
who
had
been
mine
Acquaintance
,
they
stood
afar
off
me
;
the
Pillars
of
Heaven
were
shaken
,
and
the
Earth
reeled
as
a
Cottage
,
one
Wo
poured
out
after
another
;
and
I
sought
Death
in
that
Day
,
and
could
not
find
it
,
it
fled
from
me
;
and
I
sought
to
cover
my self
any
Way
,
or
with
any
Thing
,
but
nothing
could
;
for
the
Indignation
of
the
Lord
was
upon
the
Beast
and
the
false
Prophet
,
and
came
into
Remembrance
in
that
Day
,
the
Mother
of
Harlots
,
and
the
Sea
dryed
up
,
and
all
the
Merchants
that
traded
with
her
stood
afar
off
,
for
the
Cup
of
Fury
was
poured
forth
,
and
was
seen
,
and
that
had
betrayed
the
Lord
of
Life
;
and
I
would
have
run
any
Way
to
have
hid
my self
,
but
nothing
but
weeping
,
and
gnashing
of
Teeth
,
and
Sorrow
,
and
Terrour
;
and
I
roared
out
for
the
Disquietness
of
my
Heart
and
the
Kingdom
was
full
of
Darkness
,
I
knew
not
the
right
Hand
from
the
left
,
I
became
a
perfect
Fool
,
and
knew
nothing
,
and
as
a
Man
distracted
;
all
was
overturned
,
and
I
suffered
Loss
of
all
,
in
all
that
ever
I
did
,
I
saw
it
was
in
the
accursed
Nature
;
and
then
something
in
me
cryed
:
my
Mouth
was
stopped
,
I
durst
not
make
mention
of
his
Name
,
I
knew
not
God
Just
art
thou
,
oh
Lord
,
in
all
thy
Judgments
Depart
into
the
Lake
Glory
unto
him
in
the
highest
Ho
,
every
one
that
thirsteth
,
without
Money
or
Price
for
the
pure
in
Heart
see
God
,
that
is
the
Blessing
is
nothing
to
him
,
nor
that
which
the
Covenant
of
God
is
with
,
the
Election
he
hates
,
and
to
him
it
is
of
no
Price
nor
Value
,
that
's
the
prophane
Person
,
and
that
betrayes
him
,
selleth
him
for
a
Thing
of
naught
,
nor
the
Pearl
is
nothing
to
the
Swine
:
and
so
you
run
away
from
the
drawing
of
the
Father
,
and
from
his
dwelling
▪
where
the
least
in
his
House
hath
Bread
enough
;
but
to
the
carnal
Mind
,
which
is
at
Enmity
with
God
,
who
seeks
him
in
the
fallen
Wisdom
,
he
is
of
no
value
,
and
that
which
was
the
Saints
Rule
is
too
low
for
you
,
the
Sons
of
God
are
led
by
his
Spirit
.
Where
doth
the
Spirit
speak
?
doth
in
not
bear
Witness
,
either
with
or
against
our
Spirits
,
and
so
all
Mens
Spirits
while
you
stand
not
in
the
Counsel
of
God
within
,
and
wait
to
hear
his
Word
,
you
know
not
the
Word
of
Reconciliation
;
for
he
takes
none
into
Union
with
himself
,
but
they
that
follow
him
,
and
do
what
he
commands
,
and
are
his
Fruit
and
Off-spring
:
For
none
knows
the
Things
of
God
,
but
by
the
Spirit
of
God
his
Spirit
bear
Witness
alwayes
unto
their
Spirits
presents
you
perfect
in
himself
to
the
Father
,
even
the
Lamb
who
hath
been
slain
since
the
Foundation
of
the
World
,
and
your
Hearts
will
be
broken
,
and
Water
will
gush
out
of
the
Rock
,
and
so
Love
will
encrease
in
you
,
who
abide
faithful
in
your
Measure
,
and
the
good
and
perfect
Gift
of
God
will
be
made
manifest
in
you
,
and
the
Hope
upon
which
the
Soul
comes
to
be
anchored
,
will
come
to
be
witnessed
,
which
Hope
purifies
the
Heart
that
the
pure
Law
of
Righteousness
,
which
is
Life
to
the
Righteous
,
and
the
Seed
,
may
be
set
up
,
and
you
will
see
all
chained
under
,
and
this
binds
and
fetters
the
unclean
Spirits
,
and
shuts
them
up
into
utter
Darkness
forever
.

Even
as
the
Light
shineth
from
the
East
unto
the
West
,
so
is
the
coming
of
the
day
of
the
Lord
hid
from
vulturous
Eyes
,
and
from
their
Eyes
which
are
fall
of
Adultery
,
and
cannot
cease
from
Sin
None
know
the
Things
of
God
,
but
by
the
Spirit
of
God
The
Eye-lids
of
the
morning
are
unto
him
as
the
shadow
of
Death
every
one
is
not
enlightned
,
neither
that
the
Spirit
of
God
hath
appeared
to
all
for
he
had
not
left
himself
without
a
Witness
slow
a
man
,
or
blessed
an
Idol
,
or
killed
Baal
,
because
they
had
Pleasure
in
Unrighteousness
,
and
have
sold
themselves
to
do
wickedly
,
Now
he
that
is
born
of
God
sins
not

for
the
Seed
of
God
remains
in
him
,
For
there
are
three
that
bear
Record
in
the
Earth
,
the
Water
,
the
Blood
and
the
Spirit
there
are
three
that
bear
Record
in
Heaven
,
the
Father
,
the
Word
and
the

,
and
these
three
are
one
And
so
when
the
Adversary
comes
to
tempt
and
to
assault
,
and
would
raise
up
Doubts
in
the
Mind
,
the
Evidence
is
near
,
which
puts
him
out
of
all
Doubt
that
he
is
in
the
Love
of
God
;
and
blessed
forever
,
and
happy
are
all
they
who
have
waited
for
these
Things

have
felt
these
Things
,
and
are
Witnesses
of
these
Things
;
for
Flesh
and
Blood
hath
not
revealed
these
Things
:
Now
let
every
Man
that
reads
this
prove
himself
,
and
try
himself
,
whether
he
be
in
the
Faith
or
no
,
and
whether
he
have
the
Evidence
of
the
Spirit
or
no
,
that
he
is
born
of
it

and
knows
a
Birth
that

because
the

remaineth

All

a

unto

unto
all
in

there
was
any
Ear

Hearts

the
Lord

neither
did
we
seek
to
exercise
Dominion
over
you

rejoyced

any
had
Dominion
in
the
Lord
over
Deceit

when
they
reigned
we
reigned
also
;
but
they
who
reigned
without
us
,

not

would
have
entred
through

Craft

Way
into
the
Vineyard
of
the
Lord
,

have
spoiled

We

thee
hearty

that
it
hath
pleased
thee
to
regenerate
this

,
and
to
receive
it
for
thy
own
Child
by
Adoption

and
to
incorporate
this
Child
into

By
Grace
you
are
saved
to
confess
your
actual
Sins
,
the
Sins
of
your
Magistrates

Ministers

whole
Nation
,
and
how
that
you
have
broken
all

doing
that
which
is
forbidden
,
and
leaving
undone

ignorantly
,
but
presumptuously
,
against
the
Light
of
our
Minds
,

of

also
desp●sing

Forbearance

of

Text
out
of
the
Psalms
,
or
any
other
Scripture
,
as
the
Minister
shall
think
fit
,
will
serve
to
treat
upon
not
to
rest
in
general
Doctrine
,
but
come
to
particular
Application
,
which
is
a
Work
of
great
difficulty
to
himself
,
requiring
Prudence
and
Moderation
,
and
to
the
natural
corrupt
man
it
will
be
very
unpleasant
.
He
that
preaches
,
is
to
be
perswaded
in
his
own
Heart
,
that
all
that
he
teaches
is
the
Truth
,
and
that
he
is
to
walk
before
his
Flock
as
an
Example
.
The
Ministers
are
to
give
thanks
for
the
blessing
received
,
as
Ele●●ion
,
Vocation
,
Adoption
,
Justification
,
and
Hope
of

likewise
to
turn
the

after
to
pray
for
the

to
entreat

to
forgive
the
Iniquity

your
holy
things

The
Minister
is
to
use
some
Words
touching
the
Institution
,
how
that
it
was
instituted
by
our
Lord
Jesus
Christ
,
that
Infants
should
be

that
it
is
a
Seal
of
the
Covenant

of
our
grafting
into

of
our
Union

of

Regeneration

from

And
moreover
,
the
Minister
that
baptized
the
Infant
however
he
is
to
press
it
upon
People
as
such
an
one
,
and
to
exhort
them
to
look
back
to
their
Baptism
,
and
to
repent
of
their
Sins
against
God

to

The
Minister
is
to
joyn
Prayer
with
the
Word
of
Institution
,
for
sanctifying
the
Water
to
this
spiritual
Use.
We
judge
it
convenient
to
be
done
after

Morning
Sermon

that

are
not

The
Minister
is
to
warn
all
that
are
ignorant
,
and
scandalous
,
and
prophane
,
that
live
in
any
Sin
or
Offence
against
their
Conscience
,
that
they
come
not
to
this
holy
Table
;
and
on
the
other
hand
,
to
encourage
and
assure
them
of
Refreshment
and
Strength
by
coming
to
this
Table
,
if
they
desire
a
further
Progress
in
Grace
.
For
this
Cause
many
are
weak
,
and
many
are
sick
,
and
many
are
fallen
asleep
The
Minister
is
to
begin
the
Action
with
blessing
the
Bread
and
Wine
,
setting
them
aside
for
this
holy
Use.
Unto
you
that
believe
are
all
Things
clean
Then
after
the
Sacrament
is
taken
,
the
Minister
is
to
put
them
in
Mind
of
the
Grace
of
God
held
forth
in
the
Sacrament
,
and
to
entreat
for
Pardon
for
the
Defects
of
the
whole
Service
.
The
whole
Day
is
to
be
celebrated
,
as
being
the
Marriage
is
no
Sacrament
,
nor
peculiar
to
the
Chur●h
of
G●d
we
judge
it
expedient
that
it
be
done
by
a
lawful
Minist●r
,
and
to
be
published
there
Times
,
before
it
be
solemnized
,
by
the
said
Minister
.
It
may
be
done
any
time
of
the
Year
,
but
on
a
Fasting-day
,
or
on
the
Lord's
Day
.
The
party
sick
is
to
send
for
the
Minister
timely
and
seasonably
before
their
understanding
fail
them
;
and
if
the
Minister
suspect
the
party
of
Ignorance
,
he
shall
not
examine
them
in
the
principles
of
Religion
,
especially
touching
Repentance
and
Faith
,
and
to
make
known
unto
him
the
danger
of
deferring
Repentance
.
Confessing
and
bewailing
Original
and
actual
Sin
,
and
the
miserable
condition
of
man
by
Nature
,
and
that
God
would
give
him
an
evidence
of
an
interest
in
Christ
,
and
the
Seal
of
Eternal
Life
by
Christ
.
That
when
some
great
and
notable
Judgment
is
inflicted
upon
some
People
,
or
apparently
evident
,
or
when
some
special
Blessing
is
to
be
sought
or
obtained
,
then
solemn
Fasting
is
a
Duty
that
God
expects
from
a
Nation
and
People
,
and
they
are
to
abstain
from
all
Food
,
and
from
worldly
Labour
,
and
Discourses
,
and
bodily
Delights
,
and
rich
Apparel
,
and
Ornaments
,
and
such
like
(
although
lawful
at
other
Times
)
and
gorgeous
Attire
,
and
lascivious
Habits
,
and
if
any
such
Thing
be
,
the
Minister
may
reprove
them
at
a
Fast.

Gold

nor
costly
Array
▪
nor
broidered
Hair
which
is
reading
,
preaching
,
with
singing
of
Psalms
,
fit
to
quicken
the
Affections
,
and
especially
Prayer
,
wherein
Sin
is
to
be
confest
,
with
several
Aggravations
,
and
with
greater
Inlargement
then
at
other
Times
.
You
roar
for
the
Disquietness
of
your
Hearts
,
and
as
Men
distracted
,
that
howled
for
their
Corn
,
Wine
and
Oyl
,
and
mocked
God
,
and
drew
near
with
their
Lips
,
but
their
Hearts
were
far
from
him
.
Such
Texts
ought
to
be
used
for
preaching
,
that
may
best
work
the
Hearts
of
the
Hearers
into
Humiliation
and
Repentance
,
and
the
Minister
is
to
exhort
before
they
depart
,
that
their
Assembly
may
improve
their
whole
Life
to
the
Glory
of
God
,
by
re-inforcing
themselves
and
their
Families
in
all
private
Resolutions
towards
God
,
which
they
professed
in
publick
.
The
Minister
is
to
make
some
pithy
Narration
of
God's
Deliverance
,
and
sing
some
pertinent
Psalms
,
and
choose
a
pertinent
Text
to
the
Occasion
.
that
singing
of
Psalms
publickly
in
a
Congregation
,
with
a
tunable
Voice
,
is
a
Christian's
Duty
.
It
is
not
unlawful

unconvenient
for
to
meet
together
in
the
place
which
was
dedicated
to
Idolatry
,
or
consecrated
to
an
idolatrous
Use
,
yet
we
hold
it
requisite
,
that
the
Places
of

Worship
should
be
imployed
,
and

to
that
use

quite
out

Quality

,
and

in

he
was

now
afraid
of
the
Power
that
made
him
,
which
before
he
had
Union
with
,
and
was
his
Life
,
and
gave
him
Dominion
;
and
this
fulfilled
upon
Man
,
he
was
planted
a
Noble
Vine
,
a
holy
right
Seed
,
now
become
a
degenerate
Plant
of
a
strange
Vine
;
now
when
the
Lord
appeared
and
examined
him
,
and
Man
knew
his
Fault
that
he
had
acted
against
the
Power
,
yet
that
which
acted
in
Transgression
would
excuse
;
here
is
the
Fruit
of
the
Devil's
Work
,
transgress
,
and
then
hide
and
excuse
it
,
and
so
the
Woman
put
it
off
to
the
Serpent
,
he
was
the
Beginner
of
it
;
but
if
she
had
stood
in
the
Power
,
he
would
have
had
no
Place
,
nor
his
Counsel
;
but
they
all
went
out
of
the
Light
and
Life
into
the
Knowledge
,
without
the
Power
and
Life
,
and
so
the
Curse
came
upon
all
;
now
the
Man
cursed
,
and
the
Ground
for
his
sake
,
and
the
Woman
cursed
,
in
Sorrow
to
bring
forth
,
and
the
Serpent
cursed
,
the
Beginner
of
In●quity
,
cursed
above
all
the
Beasts
of
the
Field
,
to
go
upon
his
Belly
,
and
Dust
to
be
his
Meat
forever
,
and
an
Enmity
put
between
the
Seed
of
the
Woman
and
his
Seed
forever
,
and
an
Eternal
Decree
passed
against
him
forever
,
and
he
made
War
against
the
Seed
of
the
Woman
,
which
the
Lord
promised
to
bruise
his

;
now
came
the
miserable
Estate
in
,
that
which
led
him
into
Transgression
grew
,
and
he
in
it
,
and
to
be
at

with
it
,
then
came
Hardness
of
Heart
,
and
then
came
the
World
to
be
founded
in
his
Heart
,
and
he
grew
in
the
Heart
,
and
he
grew
in
the
devouring
beastly
Nature
,
to
follow
the
earthly
Imaginations
of
his
Heart
,
and
became
earthly
,
and
fed
upon
that
which
the
Beasts
of
the
Field
fed
upon
;
and
now
the
Lamb
came
to
be
slain
since
the
Foundation
of
the
World
;
now
was
Man
driven
out
from
the
Tree
of
Life
,
and
out
of
the
Garden
,
and
could
no
way
come
there
again
,
he
had
no
right
to
it

the

being
slain
,
and
was
cut
off
,
to

,
Man
,
from
him
which
before
gave
him
Peace
,
and
from
the
Power
in
which
he
was
made
,
he
was
driven
out
from

and
the
Sword
set
,
that
go
what
way
he
could
,
he
could
not
come
into

again
;
the
Image
of
God
lost
,
then
the
joyful
Day
was
lost
,
and
Rejoycing
in
the
Lord
at
an
End
;
then
the
Day
of

was
finished

perpetual
Misery

came
in

then
Unity
with
the
Lord
of

gone

now
Shame

Contempt
came

woful

He

was

left

himself

to

himself

whether
he
would
stand

He
had
a

was
not

good
?
how
dost
thou
say

that
lasted

a

now
the

The
Cup
of
Blessing
,
which
we
bless
,
is
it
not
the
Communion
of
the
Blood
of
Christ
?
the
Bread
which
we
break
,
is
it
not
the
Communion
of
the
Body
of
Christ
?
For
we
being
many
,
are
one
Bread
and
one
Body
,
for
we
are
all
Partakers
of
that
one
Bread
I
am
the
Bread
of
Life
.
I
am
the
living
Bread
that
came
down
from
Heaven
,
if
any
Man
eat
of
this
Bread
,
he
shall
live
forever
,
and
the
Bread
that
I
will
give
is
my
Flesh
,
which
I
will
give
for
the

they
were

the

,
Covetous
and
Greedy

filthy
Lucre

made
Merchandize
of

for

denyed
the
Power
of

,
and
were
Enemies

,
and
gloried
in
the
Flesh
,
and
spake
Swelling
words
of
Vanity
,
and
did
all
live
in
the
Lust
of
the
Flesh
,
and
were
proud
Boasters
,
and
denyed
the
Lord
that
bought
them
they
held
the
Form
of
Godliness
but
denyed
the
Power
they
subverted
whole
Houses
from

led
them
back

of
grievous
Wolves
,
which

spring

which

not
spare
to
make
Havock

were
ravened

were
gone

He
that
Preacheth

,
Voice
was
heard
in
Heaven
of
much
People
,
that
sang
Halelujah
,
Salvation
,
and
Glory
,
and
Honour
,
and
Power
,
And
a
Voice
came
out
of
the
Throne
,
saying
,
praise
our
God
all
his
Servants
,
and
ye
that
fear
him
both
small
and
great
,
And
I
heard
as
it
were
the
Voice
of
many
Waters
,
and
as
a
great
Multitude
,
and
as
the
Voice
of

,

reigneth
And
I
saw
Heaven
opened
,
and
behold
a
white
Horse
,
and
he
that
sate
upon
him
was
called
faithful
and
true
,
and
he
doth
judge
and
make
War
in
Righteousness
,
his
Eyes
were
as
a
Flame
of
Fire
,
on
his
Head
were
many
Crowns
,
and
he
had
a
Name
written
that
none
knew
but
himself
,
and
he
was
clothed
with
a
Vesture
dipped
in
Blood
,
and
his
Name
is
called
,
the
Word
of
God
.
And
the
Armies
which
were
in
Heaven
followed
him
,
upon
white
Horses
,
clothed
in
fine
Linnen
white
and
clean
,
and
out
of
his
Mouth
goes
a
sharp
Sword
,
and
with
it
he
shall
smite
the
Nations
:
tread
the
Wine-press
of
the
Wrath
of
God
Almighty
;
and
he
hath
on
his
Vesture
and
on
his
Thigh
written
,
King
of
Kings
,
and
Lord
of
Lords
.
And
now
appears
an
An●el
standing
in
the
Sun
and
he
cryed
with
a
loud
Voice
,
saying
to
all
the
Fowls
that
fly
in
the
midst
of

,
come
,

gather

sate

taken

,
in

That
we
must
not
imagine
that
eternal
Life
lyeth
in
Words
or
Sentences
The
Scripture
is
the
Gospel
,
and
the
Scripture
is
the
Word
of
God
Thou
supposest
that
we
do
not
know
what
the
word
Scripture
meaneth
;
is
it
not
the
Gospel
,
that
was
preached
by
Christ
and
his
Apostles
?
and
what
they
preached
was
written
,
and
may
be
called
the
Word
of
God
,
for
it
is
full
of
Power
.
O
the
Height
,
and
the
Breadth
,
and
the
Length
,
and
the
Depth
thereof
was
to
speakable
,
which
was
unsearchable
,
and
past
finding
out
!
It
is
full
of
Power
It
is
the
Power
of
God
,
and
that
it
's
able
to
make
wise
unto
Salvation
through
Faith
in
Christ
Jesus
It
's
a
sad
Argument
against
the
Scripture
to
say
,
that
the
Gospel
was
preached
to
Matthew
,
Mark
,
Luke
Thou
wilt
remove
a
gross
Mistake
from
us
,
who
think
that
you
cry
up
the
Letter
of
the
Scripture
,
and
separate
the
Word
from
the
Spirit
;
for
we
own
the
Spirit
going
along
with
the
Word
,
for
the
Word
and
the
Spirit
are
united
as
the
instrumental
Cause
,
and
Christ
and
his
Spirit
in
the
Gospel
is
the
principal
Cause
.
The
Scriptures
are
the
Word
of
God
,
as
it
is
a
Declaration
of
what
God
would
have
us
do
,
and
therefore
God
hath
declared
his
mind
,
God
who
spoke
in
times
past
by
the
Prophets
,
hath
in
these
dayes
spoken
by
his
Son
:
The
Word
of
the
Lord
came
to
saying
&c.
The
words
of
the
son
of
unto
whom
the
Word
of
the
Lord
came
He
that
rejecteth
me
,
and
rejecteth
my
words
,
&c.
this
must
make
us
Tremble
Let
us
see
what
this
Light
is
it
will
discover
God
That
it
was
hard
for
them
to
find
out
the
true
God
by
it
,
when
they
knew
God
they
Glorified
him
not
as
God
,
but
became
Vain
in
their
Imaginations
,
&c.
The
Light
which
every
man
was
enlightned
withal
would
lead
to
know
God
,
and
teach
a
man
that
he
should
not
do
to
others
,
but
what
and
that
he
would
have
others
do
to
him
it
would
lead
from
Lying
and
Stealing
,
and
discover
the
Creator
,
and
God's
Omnipotency
and
Eternity
this
Light
was
to
be
understood
in
Opposition
to
the
Light
of
the
Spirit
,
and
contradistinct
to
the
Spirits
Light
:
it
was
Darkness
,
yea
,
worse
then
Gross
Darkness
:
We
should
never
have
known
or
believed
the
Covenant
of
Grace
,
or
that
we
should
be
born
again
,
had
not
God
revealed
them
to
us
by
the
Scriptures
Adam
,
The
Seed
of
the
Woman
should
bruise
the
Serpent's
head
?
To
say
,
that
every
one
that
comes
into
the
World
,
is
lighted
with
the
Light
of
the
Spirit
that
the
Gentils
understandings
were
Darkned
,
being
Alienated
from
the
Life
of
God
through
the
Ignorance
that
was
in
them
,
surely
these
men
were
not
Born
without
a
Light
.
That
it
is
the
falsest
th●ng
that
can
be
,
that
every
one
is
lighted
with
the
Light
of
the
Spirit
He

all

that

in
the
Light

Cometh
this

,
or
upon
the
Uncircumcision
also
?

which
was
in
the
did
accuse
or
convict
them
Where
the
Spirit
is
,
there
are
the
Fruits
of
the
Spirit

If
Christ
be
in

then
all
must

that

then

for
the

is
not

there
is
a

which

the

by

I

The

forsaking

that
he
would
dispose
the

of

accordingly
in

so
they
relied
upon
their
Converts
for
their
necessary
Supplies
,
and
received
the
Benevolence
of
several
pious
men
and

ministred

what

hath
not

chosen
the
Poor
of
this

rich
in

Heirs
of

which
he
hath

Do
not

Men
oppress
you

and
draw
you
before

judgment
Seats
;
Do
not
they
Blaspheme
that
worthy
Name
,
by
the
which
you
are
called
;
If
you
fulfil
the
Royal
Law
of
God
according
to
the
Scriptures
,
thou
shalt
love
thy
Neighbour

thy self

ye

a
respect

,
ye
commit
sin
,

are
Convinced

Transgressors
.
To
respect

here
,
is
to
have
regard
unto
the
outward
Habit
,
garb

attire
,
and
accordingly
to
esteem
or
undervalue
him
,
love
or
dread
him
,
and
that
such
respect
of
Persons
is
repugnant
unto
true
Faith
,
and
is
inconsistent
wi●h
it
,
and
concludes
that
none
ought
to
be
Honoured
upon
the
account
of
Riches
Heed
not
your
Nobility

nor
do
ye
thereupon
take
place
of
any
;
repute
not
them
who
are
of
a
lower
extraction
to
be
your
inferiors
:
Our
Religion
admits
no
respect
of
Persons
,
nor
did
it
lead
us
to
value
the
outward
condition
of
Men
,
but
their
inward
frame
of
Spirit
;
it
is
hereby
that
we
pronounce

Noble

God

not
to
serve
Sin
is
to
be
free

to
Excell

Whatsoever
you
ask
in
my
Name
,
the
Father
shall
give
it
to
you
:
That
Christ
is
really
and
Personally
in
the
Mass
,
and
in
the
Eucharist
:
God
who
is
Almighty
,
is
able
to
change
Bread
into
his
Body
,
and
Wine
into
his
Blood
(
in
the
Mass
)
as
he
did
change
the
Water
into
Wine
,
and
make
the
World
of
nothing
;
Hence
also
by
the
way
you
may
learn
,
that
we
are
no
Idolaters
,
adoring
the
Eucharist
,
because
it
's
no
more
Bread
,
but
whole
Christ
,
our
God
and
Redeemer
,
who
placeth
himself
there
by
Miracle
after
the
Priest
hath
uttered
the
sacred
Words
of
Consecration
;
yet
the
external
accid●nt
of
Bread
and
Wine
remains
,
as
our
Eyes
represent
to
us
▪
but
Faith
tells
us
,
the
true
Body
of
Christ
is
hidden
under
it
,
and
the
substance
and
Nature
of
the
material
Bread
is
there
no
more
.
As
oft
as
they
eat
the
Bread
,
and
drunk
the
Cup
,
they
shewed
forth
the
Lord's
death
till
he
came
.

they

it

a●
certain
times
;
and
they
are
forbidden
not
as
they
are
Evil
,
and
the
Creatures
of
God
,
but
because
they
are
forbidden
by
the
Church
;
and
his
proof
is
,
the
Apple
which
eat
was
not
Evil
in
it self
,
but
being
prohibited
;
so
to
eat
that
which
is
good
of
it self
is
not
ill
,
but
to
eat
contrary
to
the
Superiors
mind
and
order
,
this
is
Evil.
The
Bible
and
Scriptures
ought
not
to
be
read
,
but
leave
is
to
be
asked
of
the
Superior
,
because
there
are
many
hard
Passages
,
which
they
which
have
little
or
no
learning
,
as
testifies
in
h●s
second
Epistle
some
●nderstands
it
one
way
,
and
some
another
;
and
therefore
it
is
the
fittest
for
Learned
men
to
judge
of
them
,
and
they
must
judge
whether
People
be
in
a
capacity

read
them

That
which

but
that
which
proceedeth
out
of
the
Heart
,
which
is
corrupted
:
What
is
sold
at

may
be
eaten
and
no
Question
made

;
for
to
the
clean
,
all
Things

clean
,
and
to
the
believing
all
Things
are
pure
whatsoever
is
not

they

groundlesly
forsaken
Christ

us

if
any

they
must
be

from
hence
this
is
the
Argument

That
that

to

heard
,
in

there
is
most
Assurance
to
be
had
that
one
i●
in

but
in
the

Assurance

therefore
the
Church
is
to
be
heard
As
first
,
That
Church
is
not
to
be
heard
whose
Authors
and
Doctors
are
Cozeners

But
all
are
Cozeners
and

the

of

,
and
no
other

as
Antiquity

,
holiness
of

,
Universality
.
That
the
Church
of
takes
the
narrow
Way
that
leads
to
Life
.
Because
the
Church
of
keeps
Sunady
instead
of
Saturday
,
by
Tradition
;
therefore
she
is
the
Church
of

.
That

do
it
in
the
Matter
of
the

Presence
after

If
it
can
be

from

which

that
the
Sabbath-day
is
commanded
by

to

Whence
we
infer
,
That

are
of

among

now
on

,
which
pretend
themselves
to
be
this

that

cannot

an

we
shall
no

the

we
would
have
questioned
the
Articles

taught
by

the

himself

wherefore
if
this

this

shall
teach
us
that
Infants
ought
to
be
baptized
,
and
that
it
is
as
lawful
to
desire
the

to
pray
for

as
to
desire

how
that

would
not
pay
his
Tythes
Questioning
the
Lord
a●out
the
fault
in

he
stoutly
Answered
,
That
the
Tenth

doubtless
was
his
,
that
had
the
Interest
in
the
Nine
,
and
therefore
would
pay
none
:

him
Excommunicate

and
turning
to

to
say
Mass
publickly
,
forbad
that

should
be

there
;

went

living
or
dead
(
whether
you
will
)
and
charges
him
in
the
Name
of
God
to
declare
who
he
was
?
he
tells
him
,
That
in
the
time
of
the
and
although
he
was
often
urged
by
the
Doctrine
of
the
Priest
to
pay
his
Tythes
,
yet
he
never
could
be
brought
to
it
,
for
the
which
he
saith
,
after
he
was
dead
,
he
was
carried
to
Hell
:
desired
to
know
where
the
Priest
that
Excommunicated
him
was
buried
?
th●
dead
shewed
him
the
place
,
where
he
makes
an
Invocation
of
the
dead
Priest
,
and
bids
him
arise
,
because
they
wanted
his
help
;
the
Priest
arises
asks
him
if
he
knew
that
other
that
was
ri●en
?
he
tells
him
yes
,
but
wishes
he
had
never
known
him
;
for
saith
he
,
he
was
in
all
things
ever
averse
to
the
Church
,
and
a
detainer
of
h●
Tythes
,
a
great
Sinner
to
his
Death
,
and
therefore
I
Excommunicated
him
.
But
declares
that
it
was
fit
Mercy
should
●e
used
towards
him
,
and
that
he
had
suffered
long
in
Hell
for
his
Offence
wherefore
he
gives
him
Absolution
,
and
sends
him
to
his
Grave
,
wh●re
he
fell
again
to
Dust
and
Ashes
;
he
gone
,
the
Priest
new
risen
tells
that
his
Corps
had
lien
there
about
Years
,
and
would
gladly
have
h●d
him
to
have
●ontinued
on

,
for
instruction
of

could
not
thereto

That

in

is

Gal.
Lo
I
am
with
you
to
the
End
of
the
World
,
to
deny
them
is
not
to
deny
God's
Veracity
,
neither
to
make
God
a
Lyar
,
to
be
revealed
from
God
,
and
to
be
received
by
all
under
pain
of
Damnation
,
the
Lord
saith
,
and
hath
revealed
,
and
sufficiently
proposed
the
real
presence
of
Christ
in
your
Sacrament
of
the
Altar
as
a
divine
Revelation
,
Worshipping
of
Images
,
Prayer
to
the
dead
,
and
for
the
dead
,
divine
Revelations
,
and
the
Father
,
Son
,
and
Holy
Ghost
,
or
the

of

:
a
Virgin
should
bring
forth
a
Son
,
whose
Name
should
be
called
Emanuel
,
God
with
us
;
and
the
Government
should
be
upon
his
Shoulders
:
And
therefore
it
is
thy
,
and
your
great
Presumption
,
to
make
God
,
Christ
and
Apostles
the
Foundation
of
all
this
Rubbish
,
Straw
,
and
Stubble
,
which
thou
would'st
put
off
as
divine
Revelation
,
and
as
sufficiently
proposed
,
as
the
doctrine
of
Christ
and
his
Apostles
was
;
nay
,
blush
for
shame
;
they
brought
in
the
Prophets
for
the
Peoples
sake
,
to
prove
that
they
had
testified
of
the
same
before
,
and
had
declared
the
coming
of
the
Just
One
;
besides
they
commended
themselves
to
the
Witness
of
God
in
every
man's
Conscience
;
and
upon
waiting
upon
the
Lord
and
in
the
measure
of
his
Spirit
,
they
found
the
things
even
so
,
and
by
searching
the
Scriptures
as
the
Bereans
did
,
&
found
the
things
even
so
,
as
had
been
declared
of
:
but
upon
due
consideration
we
find
not
these
foresaid
doctrines
so
propounded
as
to
have
the
Testimony
of
the
Prophets
and
Apostles
,
neither
doth
your
Doctrine
and
Worship
answer
the
Witness
of
God
in
every
mans
Conscience
;
and
so
to
deny
you
is
not
to
make
God
a
Lyar
,
but
God
true
,
the
Prophets
and
Apostles
,
and
the
Witness
of
God
true
,
and
you
Ly●rs
,
who
contradict
them
and
their
Testimony
and
the
Power
of
God
,
and
would
assume
it
to
your selves
,
though
you
be
erred
from
the
Spirit
,
and
would
put
all
under
the
Name
of
Infallibility
,
and
by
such
Heavenly
Arguments
as
calls
them
,
to
wit
,
the
Miracles
aforesaid
,
by
which
you
have
deceived
the
Nations
,
and
blinded
the
Eyes
of
the
People
;
but
the
time
is
come
,
and
Light
and
Life
is
broken
forth
,
that
the
Skirts
of
the
Whore
must
be
discovered
,
and
her
nakedness
must
appear
,
and
her
Fornications
and
Adulteries
shall
be
manifest
unto
all
,
so
that
you
shall
not
proceed
much
further
:
And
I
hope
by
this
time
in
Words
,
it
will
appear
evident
to
all
,
whose
Eyes
God
in
any
measure
hath
opened
,
That
this
Catholick
Church
(
so
called
)
is
manifest
in
what
hath
been
said
to
not
to
be
the
Church
of

,
neither
their
Doctrine

Practice
divinely
propounded
,
neither
she
taken
from
henceforth
as
the
only
infallible
Judge
,
Rule
and
Director
in
all
matters
of
Faith
,
which
all
are
to
receive
upon
pain
of
Damnation
,
as
saith
;
though
she
sit
as
Queen
,
and
hath
known
no
Sorrow
;
but
on
the
contrary
,
she
to
be
a
blind
Guide
that
hath
bewitched
the
Kings
of
the
Earth
,
and
the
Nations
(
which
are
Waters
,
which
is
the
Universal●ty
boasts
of

with
her
Inchantments
&
Sorceries
,
which
from
hence
forth
shall
not
be
taken
as
infallible
but
fallible
;
and
as
that
Church
that
hath
not
conveyed
the
true
Faith
which
was
once
delivered
to
the
Saints
,
but
rather
hath
spread
abroad
Error

false
Doctrine

the

come
forth

the

had
in

times

prevail

as
you
can

you

up

Were

observed

No
exposition
of

o●
any
other
is
to
be
admitted
,
that
puts
inconsistency
betwixt
the
Old
Testament
and
the
New
,
seeing
both
are
Inspired
by
the
same
God
,
who
is
incapable
of
falshood
or
alteration
;
whereupon
if
we
be
not
so
atheistical
as
to
deny
,
the
veracity
or
immutability
of
the
most
high
,
it
must
be
granted
that
his
word
is
of
eternal
Truth
,
his
Promises
yea
and
Amen
,
his
precepts
more
unalterable
then
the
Laws
of
the

did
our
Saviour
come
to
destroy

to
fulfill
the

thereupon
he

as
sitting
in

Chair
from
all
which
it
is
apparent
that
the
Old
Testament
is
so
far
from
being
contradicted
,
that
it
is
fully
confirmed
in
the
New
;
therefore
I
may
well
draw
this
conclusion
,
that
these
words
ought
not
to
be
interpreted
as
to
render
all
Swearing
unlawful
,
not
without
Promise
of
reward
and
it
was
Prophesied
before
by
that
Christians
under
the
Gospel
should
Swear
,
and
I
look
upon
it
as
a
piece
of
Manichisme
,
and
extremely
derogatory
both
to
the
Scripture
and
God
himself
,
therefore
what
moral
duty
one
Man
was
commanded
in
the
Law
,
another
should
be
condemned
in
the
new

notwithstanding

had
never

'T
is
true
,
some
of
the
Fathers
in

Homilies
,
and
to
the

inveighed
much
against
Swearing
,
as
though
it
had
been
altogether
unlawful

it
was
only
against
Customary
Oaths

so
much
against
Swearing
that
the

they
would
leave

against

If
any
still
urge
the
Universality
of
the

neither

It
's
plain
that
they
that
thus
argue
break
off
our
Saviour's
Sentence
in
the
middle
,
and
suffer
him
not
to
come
to
his
Period
;
for
he
saith
not
,
there
fixing
a
Point
,
but
and
for
that
of
must
of
Necessity
by
understood
with
Restriction
,
it
cannot
be
that
Swearing
is
worse
then
Forswearing
,
Theft
,
Adultery
,
Murder
,
these
are
hainous
Crimes
,
but
if
no
Sin
to
Swear
the
Truth
,
why
then
not
that
Swearing
is
so
great
an
Offence
as
many
others
but
lest
we
contract
a
Habit
thereof
,
then
probably
by
rash
Oaths
we
shall
offend
God
by
false
Swearing
,
which
is
no
more
then
in
an
especial
Manner
,
forbear
forswearing
,
and
must
be
restrained
in
a
limited
Sense
,
for
there
is
not
meant
any
Oaths
whatever
,
but
such
as
the
Apostle
speaks
of
,
neither
by
Heaven
,
by
Earth
,
nor
any
other
Oath

that
is

any
Oath
taken
by
other
Creatures

for
so
must
they
be
understood
,
unless
we
interpret
his
Words
to
make
them
contradict
God's

and

in
a
manifest
Opposition

Ye
have
heard
it

been
said
of

thou
shalt
not

self

the

thine
Oaths

I

unto
you

neither
shalt
thou
Swear

thou

not
that

falls
of
it self
,
which
is
,
(
But
I
say
unto
you
)
which
is
utterly
improbable
,
and
the
Reason
is
because
God
formerly
had
forbidden
all
false
and
vain
Oaths
,
and
all
Swearing
by
Creatures
,
all
which
I
grant
to
be
true
but
the
had
taught
the
People
otherwise
by
their
wicked
Glosses
,
that
made
the
Commandment
of
small
Effect
by
their
Tradition
,
and
the
Practice
of
that
Nation
was
widely
distant
from
the
Commandment
,
both
which
were
necessarily
to
be
reformed
,
which
our
Saviour
did
in
these
Words
,
and
made
the
Commandments
of
God
of
small
Effect
by
their
Traditions
,
That
either
all
kind
of
Swearing
is
forbidden
here
by
Christ
,
or
else
Christ
forbad
nothing
which
was
not
forbidden
before
,
which
is
utterly
improbable
,
I
grant
that
all
vain
Oaths

Perjury
,
and
all
Swearing
by

formerly
forbidden
