constant_o as_o they_o do_v their_o own_o heart_n carry_v they_o on_o thereunto_o and_o the_o devil_n second_v they_o with_o his_o temptation_n they_o be_v carry_v on_o vehement_o god_n also_o give_v they_o up_o to_o their_o own_o will_n they_o can_v do_v not_o otherwise_o if_o you_o look_v into_o the_o scrißture_n you_o may_v find_v wicked_a cain_n kill_v abel_n a_o wicked_a nimrod_n mighty_o

they_o do_v but_o what_o their_o own_o heart_n carry_v they_o unto_o god_n have_v give_v they_o up_o to_o their_o own_o will_n and_o affection_n therefore_o think_v it_o not_o strange_a see_v they_o

the_o three_o use_n may_v be_v to_o reach_v all_o wicked_a man_n that_o be_v carry_v on_o with_o such_o violence_n in_o wicked_a way_n to_o take_v notice_n by_o their_o action_n what_o they_o

to_o your_o face_n that_o you_o be_v wicked_a wretch_n but_o you_o will_v say_v what_o action_n i_o answer_v your_o swear_n blaspheme_a drunkenness_n with_o other_o outrage_n which_o your_o own_o

company_n of_o wicked_a wretch_n rise_v up_o against_o the_o lord_n and_o against_o his_o people_n even_o company_n of_o wicked_a doeg_n to_o who_o the_o prophet_n speak_v why_o do_v you_o boast_v

for_o aim_v at_o they_o above_o all_o other_o and_o be_v not_o this_o your_o practice_n do_v not_o you_o bend_v your_o force_n most_o against_o they_o that_o be_v most_o godly_a and_o yet_o o_o you_o wicked_a one_o you_o will_v not_o yield_v that_o your_o action_n be_v wicked_a but_o let_v your_o heart_n speak_v and_o they_o will_v tell_v you_o that_o your_o action_n be_v wicked_a and_o that_o cain-like_a you_o seek_v to_o kill_v the_o saint_n because_o their_o work_n be_v good_a and_o your_o own_o bad_a and_o god_n will_v one_o day_n tell_v you_o so_o to_o your_o endless_a woe_n if_o you_o

answer_v first_o that_o they_o refuse_v not_o to_o obey_v the_o king_n so_o far_o as_o his_o command_n agree_v with_o god_n and_o more_o ready_a they_o be_v to_o obey_v he_o in_o such_o thing_n than_o any_o of_o you_o which_o do_v hate_n and_o open_o oppose_v all_o such_o person_n and_o thing_n and_o command_n as_o have_v any_o stamp_n of_o god_n upon_o they_o second_o they_o do_v not_o disobey_v the_o king_n but_o stand_v up_o in_o a_o defensive_a way_n to_o defend_v themselves_o and_o their_o posterity_n from_o popery_n tyranny_n and_o slavery_n which_o you_o labour_v to_o bring_v we_o all_o unto_o do_v not_o some_o of_o you_o remember_v how_o you_o give_v the_o first_o onset_n against_o the_o parliament_n endeavour_v to_o destroy_v that_o honourable_a assembly_n before_o they_o ever_o take_v up_o arm_n or_o do_v any_o thing_n in_o a_o hostile_a way_n and_o therefore_o your_o first_o rise_n be_v not_o to_o suppress_v disobedient_a subject_n but_o to_o destroy_v such_o as_o be_v obedient_a and_o loyal_a and_o both_o the_o parliament_n and_o all_o that_o stand_v up_o with_o they_o do_v what_o they_o do_v in_o defence_n of_o the_o king_n and_o that_o religion_n and_o those_o law_n which_o the_o king_n himself_o be_v swear_v to_o maintain_v and_o therefore_o that_o cavil_n will_v no_o way_n free_v you_o be_v you_o be_v wicked_a person_n nor_o free_v your_o action_n from_o be_v wicked_a action_n but_o you_o may_v say_v have_v we_o shed_v more_o blood_n than_o the_o parliament_n or_o imprison_v more_o than_o they_o we_o may_v charge_v they_o with_o the_o same_o crime_n that_o we_o be_v charge_v withal_o i_o answer_v as_o before_o they_o be_v necessitate_v to_o what_o they_o do_v in_o defence_n of_o themselves_o of_o religion_n and_o liberty_n beside_o their_o aim_n be_v not_o to_o shed_v blood_n their_o endeavour_n have_v be_v and_o still_o be_v for_o peace_n but_o you_o be_v still_o for_o war_n and_o bloodshed_n beside_o all_o this_o there_o be_v a_o great_a difference_n betwixt_o your_o shed_n of_o blood_n and_o they_o for_o they_o be_v exceed_o tender_a and_o careful_a of_o the_o faithful_a minister_n of_o god_n and_o of_o his_o servant_n and_o will_v if_o it_o be_v possible_a preserve_v they_o above_o all_o other_o from_o prison_n and_o sword_n but_o your_o aim_n be_v altogether_o against_o such_o who_o you_o be_v please_v out_o of_o your_o devilish_a malice_n to_o call_v round_a head_n which_o term_n show_v what_o you_o be_v even_o such_o who_o tongue_n be_v set_v on_o fire_n of_o hell_n which_o do_v speak_v worst_a of_o those_o of_o who_o god_n speak_v best_a the_o holy_a god_n love_v holiness_n and_o command_v it_o but_o you_o hate_v it_o and_o condemn_v it_o you_o be_v contrary_a to_o god_n and_o all_o his_o way_n and_o yet_o in_o your_o opinion_n you_o be_v not_o a_o company_n of_o wicked_a wretch_n but_o if_o all_o this_o will_v not_o convince_v you_o of_o your_o wickedness_n what_o think_v you_o of_o all_o your_o blasphemy_n and_o curse_a oath_n which_o daily_o rabshakeh-like_a you_o belch_v out_o against_o god_n say_v with_o those_o psalm_n 42._o vbi_fw-la est_fw-la deus_fw-la tuus_fw-la in_o a_o wood_n do_v but_o look_v upon_o the_o curse_a practice_n of_o all_o the_o wicked_a wretch_n that_o ever_o you_o read_v or_o hear_v of_o and_o see_v what_o villainy_n be_v ever_o do_v by_o they_o to_o declare_v they_o to_o be_v wicked_a one_o that_o you_o be_v not_o guilty_a of_o and_o then_o you_o will_v without_o doubt_n be_v of_o my_o mind_n that_o you_o be_v a_o company_n of_o wicked_a one_o indeed_o and_o so_o i_o come_v to_o the_o four_o use_n which_o be_v a_o use_n of_o exhortation_n to_o all_o you_o that_o stand_v up_o thus_o wicked_o against_o god_n to_o cease_v from_o all_o your_o curse_a and_o wicked_a design_n which_o you_o have_v
