A29129	A cordial-mediator for accordance of brethren that are of different judgments and wayes of administration in things that concerne the Kingdome of God for repairing of the breach and restoring of the paths for many generations : wherein is proposed the way and means (not to inforce or compell to an outward dissembling, hypocriticall uniformity, which is all that can be inforced unto by humane authority, but) to induce and ingage to a cordiall-uniformity even of soule and spirit amongst all that are truly and really Christians, and to bring them likewise into the same wayes and ministrations in the things of God / written by Ellis Bradshaw.

spirit_n be_v in_o some_o good_a measure_n find_v to_o be_v in_o we_o we_o be_v not_o fit_a to_o rule_v or_o have_v the_o least_o authority_n commit_v to_o we_o for_o we_o be_v somuch_o under_o age_n

to_o be_v near_o at_o hand_n and_o be_v in_o some_o measure_n already_o present_a and_o some_o will_v needs_o be_v so_o forward_o as_o to_o take_v it_o by_o violence_n and_o beat_v down_o all_o before_o they_o that_o stand_v in_o their_o way_n yea_o will_v not_o much_o care_n to_o destroy_v their_o brethren_n in_o who_o the_o king_n of_o heaven_n be_v already_o in_o some_o measure_n and_o so_o cut_v off_o they_o from_o live_v to_o see_v it_o and_o enjoy_v it_o in_o the_o power_n who_o desire_v it_o also_o as_o much_o as_o themselves_o but_o can_v accord_v to_o fetch_v it_o in_o by_o

that_o wise_a servant_n shall_v have_v the_o rule_n and_o government_n over_o such_o lewd_a son_n that_o can_v never_o agree_v but_o be_v ready_a to_o bite_v and_o devour_v one_o another_o at_o

a_o sharp_a razor_n and_o this_o kind_n of_o smite_v be_v too_o too_o frequent_a and_o common_a among_o we_o and_o show_v clear_o that_o if_o power_n and_o commission_n be_v in_o our_o hand_n the_o
