but_o it_o be_v thus_o in_o every_o error_n fifteen_o bishop_n of_o jerusalem_n in_o immediate_a succession_n be_v circumcise_v believe_v it_o to_o be_v necessary_a so_o to_o be_v with_o these_o other_o christian_a church_n who_o be_v of_o the_o uncircumcision_n do_v communicate_v suppose_v now_o that_o these_o bishop_n have_v not_o only_o think_v it_o necessary_a for_o themselves_o but_o for_o other_o too_o this_o argument_n you_o see_v be_v ready_a you_o of_o the_o uncircumcision_n who_o do_v communicate_v with_o we_o think_v that_o we_o may_v be_v save_v though_o we_o be_v circumcise_v but_o we_o do_v not_o think_v that_o you_o who_o be_v not_o circumcise_v can_v be_v save_v therefore_o it_o be_v the_o safe_a way_n to_o be_v circumcise_v i_o suppose_v you_o will_v not_o have_v think_v their_o argument_n good_a neither_o will_v you_o have_v have_v your_o child_n circumcise_v but_o this_o argument_n may_v serve_v the_o presbyterian_o as_o well_v as_o the_o papist_n we_o be_v indeed_o very_a kind_n to_o they_o in_o our_o sentence_n concern_v their_o salvation_n and_o they_o be_v many_o of_o they_o as_o unkind_a to_o we_o if_o they_o shall_v argue_v so_o as_o you_o do_v and_o say_v you_o episcopal_a man_n think_v we_o presbyterian_o though_v in_o error_n can_v be_v save_v and_o we_o say_v so_o too_o but_o we_o think_v you_o episcopal_a man_n be_v enemy_n of_o the_o kingdom_n of_o jesus_n christ_n and_o therefore_o we_o think_v you_o in_o a_o damnable_a condition_n therefore_o it_o be_v safe_a to_o be_v a_o presbyterian_a i_o know_v not_o what_o your_o man_n will_v think_v of_o the_o argument_n in_o their_o hand_n i_o be_o sure_a we_o have_v reason_n to_o complain_v that_o we_o be_v use_v very_o ill_o on_o both_o hand_n for_o no_o other_o cause_n but_o because_o we_o be_v charitable_a but_o it_o be_v not_o our_o case_n alone_o but_o the_o old_a catholic_n be_v use_v just_a so_o by_o the_o donatist_n in_o this_o very_a argument_n as_o we_o be_v use_v hy_z your_o man_n the_o donatist_n be_v so_o fierce_a against_o the_o catholic_n that_o they_o will_v rebaptise_a all_o they_o who_o come_v to_o their_o church_n from_o the_o other_o but_o the_o catholic_n as_o know_v the_o donatist_n do_v give_v right_a baptism_n admit_v their_o convert_v to_o repentance_n but_o do_v not_o rebaptise_a they_o upon_o this_o score_n the_o donatist_n triumph_v say_v you_o catholic_n confess_v our_o baptism_n to_o be_v good_a and_o so_o say_v we_o but_o we_o donatist_n deny_v your_o baptism_n to_o be_v good_a therefore_o it_o be_v safe_a to_o be_v of_o our_o side_n then_o you_o now_o what_o shall_v the_o catholic_n say_n or_o do_v shall_v they_o lie_v for_o god_n and_o for_o religion_n and_o to_o serve_v the_o end_n of_o truth_n say_v the_o donatists_n baptism_n be_v not_o good_a that_o they_o ought_v not_o shall_v they_o damn_v all_o the_o donatist_n and_o make_v the_o rent_n wide_o it_o be_v too_o great_a already_o what_o then_o they_o be_v quiet_a and_o know_v that_o the_o donatist_n seek_v advantage_n by_o their_o own_o fierceness_n and_o trample_v upon_o the_o other_o charity_n but_o so_o they_o harden_v themselves_o in_o error_n and_o become_v evil_a because_o the_o other_o be_v good_a i_o shall_v trouble_v you_o no_o further_o now_o but_o desire_v you_o to_o consider_v of_o these_o thing_n with_o as_o much_o caution_n as_o they_o be_v write_v with_o charity_n till_o i_o hear_v from_o you_o i_o shall_v pray_v to_o god_n to_o open_v your_o heart_n and_o your_o understanding_n that_o you_o may_v return_v from_o whence_o you_o be_v fall_v and_o repent_v and_o do_v your_o first_o work_n which_o that_o you_o may_v do_v be_v the_o hearty_a desire_n of_o your_o very_a affectionate_a friend_n and_o servant_n jer_n taylor_n the_o second_o letter_n write_v to_o a_o person_n new_o convert_v to_o the_o church_n of_o england_n madam_n i_o bless_v god_n i_o be_o safe_o arrive_v where_o i_o desire_v to_o be_v after_o my_o unwilling_a departure_n from_o the_o place_n of_o your_o abode_n and_o danger_n and_o now_o because_o i_o can_v have_v no_o other_o expression_n of_o my_o tenderness_n i_o account_v that_o i_o have_v a_o treble_a obligation_n to_o signify_v it_o by_o my_o care_n of_o your_o big_a and_o eternal_a interest_n and_o because_o it_o have_v please_v god_n to_o make_v i_o a_o instrument_n of_o make_v you_o to_o understand_v in_o some_o fair_a measure_n the_o excellency_n of_o a_o true_a and_o holy_a religion_n and_o that_o i_o have_v point_v out_o such_o folly_n and_o error_n in_o the_o roman_a church_n at_o which_o your_o understanding_n be_v forward_o and_o pregnant_a do_v of_o itself_o start_v as_o at_o imperfect_a ill-looking_a proposition_n give_v i_o leave_v to_o do_v that_o now_o which_o be_v the_o purpose_n of_o my_o charity_n that_o be_v teach_v you_o to_o turn_v this_o to_o the_o advantage_n of_o a_o holy_a life_n that_o you_o may_v not_o only_o be_v change_v but_o convert_v for_o the_o church_n of_o england_n whither_o you_o be_v now_o come_v be_v not_o in_o condition_n to_o boast_v herself_o in_o the_o reputation_n of_o change_v the_o opinion_n of_o a_o single_a person_n though_o never_o so_o excellent_a she_o have_v no_o temporal_a end_n to_o serve_v which_o must_v stand_v upon_o fame_n and_o noise_n all_o that_o she_o can_v design_n be_v to_o

remember_v that_o as_o now_o you_o be_v teach_v to_o pray_v both_o public_o and_o private_o in_o a_o language_n understand_v so_o it_o be_v intend_v your_o affection_n shall_v be_v forward_o in_o proportion_n to_o the_o advantage_n which_o your_o prayer_n have_v in_o the_o understand_a part_n for_o though_o you_o have_v be_v often_o tell_v and_o have_v hear_v that_o ignorance_n be_v the_o mother_n of_o devotion_n you_o will_v find_v that_o the_o proposition_n be_v unnatural_a and_o against_o common_a sense_n and_o experience_n because_o it_o be_v impossible_a to_o desire_v that_o of_o which_o we_o know_v nothing_o unless_o the_o desire_n itself_o be_v fantastical_a and_o illusive_a it_o be_v necessary_a that_o in_o the_o same_o proportion_n in_o which_o we_o understand_v any_o good_a thing_n in_o the_o same_o we_o shall_v also_o desire_v it_o and_o the_o more_o particular_a and_o minute_n your_o notice_n be_v the_o more_o passionate_a and_o material_a also_o your_o affection_n will_v be_v towards_o it_o and_o if_o they_o be_v good_a thing_n for_o which_o we_o be_v teach_v to_o pray_v the_o more_o you_o know_v they_o the_o more_o reason_n you_o have_v to_o love_v they_o it_o be_v monstrous_a to_o think_v that_o devotion_n that_o be_v passionate_a desire_n of_o religious_a thing_n and_o the_o earnest_a prosecution_n of_o they_o shall_v be_v produce_v by_o any_o thing_n of_o ignorance_n or_o less_o perfect_a notice_n in_o any_o sense_n since_o therefore_o you_o be_v teach_v to_o pray_v so_o that_o your_o understanding_n be_v the_o preceptor_n or_o the_o master_n of_o the_o choir_n and_o you_o know_v what_o you_o say_v your_o desire_n be_v make_v humane_a religious_a express_a material_a for_o these_o be_v the_o advantage_n of_o prayer_n and_o liturgy_n well_o understand_v be_v please_v also_o to_o remember_v that_o now_o if_o you_o be_v not_o also_o passionate_a and_o devout_a for_o the_o thing_n you_o mention_v you_o will_v want_v the_o spirit_n of_o prayer_n and_o be_v more_o inexcusable_a than_o before_o in_o many_o of_o your_o prayer_n before_o especial_o the_o public_a you_o hear_v a_o voice_n but_o see_v and_o perceive_v nothing_o of_o the_o sense_n and_o what_o you_o understand_v of_o it_o be_v like_o the_o man_n in_o the_o gospel_n that_o be_v half_o blind_a he_o see_v man_n walk_v like_o tree_n and_o so_o you_o possible_o may_v perceive_v the_o meaning_n of_o it_o in_o general_a you_o know_v when_o they_o come_v to_o the_o epistle_n when_o to_o the_o gospel_n when_o the_o introit_n when_o the_o pax_n when_o any_o of_o the_o other_o more_o general_a period_n be_v but_o you_o can_v have_v nothing_o of_o the_o spirit_n of_o prayer_n that_o be_v nothing_o of_o the_o devotion_n and_o the_o holy_a affection_n to_o the_o particular_a excellency_n which_o can_v or_o ought_v there_o to_o have_v be_v represent_v but_o now_o you_o be_v teach_v how_o you_o may_v be_v real_o devout_a it_o be_v make_v facile_a and_o easy_a and_o there_o can_v want_v nothing_o but_o your_o consent_n and_o observation_n 2._o whereas_o now_o you_o be_v take_v off_o from_o all_o humane_a confidence_n from_o rely_v whole_o and_o almost_o ultimate_o upon_o the_o priest_n power_n and_o external_a act_n from_o reckon_a prayer_n by_o number_n from_o form_n and_o outside_n
