yet_o promise_v a_o answer_n m.s._n his_o first_o answer_n be_v that_o the_o five_o minister_n aim_v at_o no_o separation_n but_o as_o their_o brethren_n the_o scot_n do_v from_o prelatical_a coaction_n a.s._n if_o it_o be_v only_o from_o prelatical_a coaction_n wherefore_o separate_v they_o themselves_o from_o their_o brethren_n the_o scot_n their_o sacramental_a communion_n and_o the_o

manner_n as_o among_o you_o also_o or_o in_o the_o administration_n of_o discipline_n as_o may_v be_v among_o we_o all_o but_o as_o for_o any_o defect_n in_o the_o principal_a part_n of_o our_o ecclesiastical_a discipline_n we_o see_v none_o as_o yet_o that_o we_o travel_v not_o to_o reform_v but_o believe_v such_o as_o he_o object_n we_o in_o they_o to_o be_v rather_o pretend_v then_o

that_o i_o wish_v they_o to_o be_v out_o of_o the_o assembly_n only_o i_o propound_v a_o question_n whether_o in_o consequence_n of_o the_o publish_n of_o their_o apology_n they_o shall_v not_o

because_o it_o make_v it_o appear_v more_o probable_o to_o the_o world_n that_o it_o be_v not_o a_o libel_n 3._o and_o that_o it_o contain_v nothing_o against_o the_o law_n 4._o because_o the_o name_n

because_o it_o be_v conform_v to_o god_n word_n as_o we_o shall_v see_v hereafter_o 2._o because_o that_o answer_n be_v nothing_o else_o but_o a_o apology_n for_o the_o discipline_n of_o the_o

refuse_v not_o one_o another_o to_o the_o communion_n of_o the_o sacrament_n 5._o because_o that_o a_o bishop_n and_o the_o rest_n of_o the_o commissioner_n from_o england_n at_o the_o synod_n of_o
