A78965What Noblemans, what Aldermans, what Merchants family is more reformed since the Covenant, then before?
A78965What had he to doe with gluttony, drunkennesse, pride, wantonnesse, incontinencie; and the rest of my ware?
A78965What meaneth the heat of this great anger?
A78965What sin hast thou left, or in what one thing hast thou bin reformed since thou tookest this Covenant?
A78965What though the Church- worship be pure, yet if the worshippers be impure, God will not accept of the worship?
A78965Who can abide in the fiercenesse of his anger?
A78965Who can stand before his indignation?
A78965Who can stand?
A78965and can we think that God will be easily intreated to sheath up his bloody sword, and to cease shedding our blood?
A78965and is it not fit and equall that God should un- church us, and un- people us?
A78965how are the people of God divided one from another, railing upon( in stead of loving) one another?
A78965how beautifull were the feet of them that brought the Gospell of peace unto you?
A78965how comes it to passe that thou art so much sleighted and contemned?
A78965how is it that truth faileth, and he that departeth from evill maketh himself a prey?
A78965that take it meerly to serve their own turns, to save their credits, or to save their estates, or to hide their malignancy?
A78965where is the man that hath made restitution of his ill gotten goods since he took this Covenant?
A78965will they fortifie themselves?
A78965will they make an end in a day?
A78965will they revive the stones out of the heaps of the rubbish which are burnt?
A78965woe is me, who can dwell with everlasting burnings?
A51052And how far it is by us admissible?
A51052And what abatement is there condescended unto of the exorbitant powers of Prelacy, which is not here either formally or virtually repaired?
A51052And what complyance we may have ● or it?
A51052And why is this accusation pretended to be in general of all such Covenants, when yet it is expressely intended against the League and Covenant?
A51052And, am not I grieved, O Lord, with them that rise up against thee?
A51052But he goeth on, However, are we Christians?
A51052But is he therefore bound to know them all, or to contend for them?
A51052But it may be said, if we be reponed to the same Estate wherein our Predecessours were, how can we prove disconforme in our practice?
A51052But where there hath appeared no conscience in keeping; why do we expect much sense in interpreting?
A51052But wherefore should I urge such deceitful generals?
A51052But why trifle I with such a person?
A51052Can not these thing lye easily enough together in an Oath, which yet are all comprehended in the Law of God?
A51052How then can these two consist?
A51052How will he excuse this inconsequence and inequality?
A51052Is it because the Author would have us to reckon it amongst the worst of combinations?
A51052Is not this an odde medly to be hudled up in a sacred oath?
A51052It is true, our Presbyterie did not retain union as it was desired; but what then?
A51052Must we believe the Covenant to eb worse then can be expressed, because the Accuser can prove nothing?
A51052Nay, who is man in that case of whom we should be afraid?
A51052Neither is it the present question, whether we may simply joyne in these meetings or not?
A51052No?
A51052Or because we are violently expressed, must we therefore be repute wil ● ul deserters?
A51052Or by what salvo may my sitting and acting be justified in a meeting, in the power whereof I hold it unlawful to partake?
A51052Thus I have heard that the Bishop of Glasgow, in answer to a person expressing his fears of the return of Popery, told him, what then?
A51052Very right; why should not their origen and warrant, and the measure and rule of their power go together?
A51052Was not this grave and judicious reasoning?
A51052Well, admit this to be a truth, what then?
A51052What Logick can knit together such inferences?
A51052What shall become of Patronages pertaining to Bishops, and of other Churches which are of their patrimony?
A51052What then?
A51052What?
A51052Whether a constant Moderator, or fixed Proeslos, for terme of life, in Church- meetings, be a thing in it self lawful?
A51052Who can deny it?
A51052Who would not pity such dissolute folly?
A51052Who would not pity such folly?
A51052are the present Presbyteries and Synods no Presbyteries and Synods?
A51052or in what manner can they be reconciled?
A51052then are the present Ministers no Presbyters?

A85184And have not the like, or as bad in secular?
A85184And is it fit crudely, without any glosse, to forswear all holy Government?
A85184And what can they alleadg to difference this from such a one?
A85184And who more fit to be entrusted with Conscience, Mercy, and Bounty, then a person Religious, Gentle, and Noble?

A85184Did it produce any of those saving effects, which the grave Dictators assured us it would?
A85184For what is meant in the first clause by common enemies?
A85184Hath he not once again sent us a King in mercy, and fitted an incomparable head to the shoulders of our Kingdoms?

A85184How can a man take away his Revenues, Houses, Parks,& c. and not diminish his greatness?
A85184How can a man take away the Kings Munition, and Castles; and yet not weaken his power?
A85184I need not therefore enquire, Who composed our Covenant?
A85184If it be forced and compulsory, how is it a Covenant?
A85184If it be no limitation, what doth it there?
A85184If not, why is it not circumscribed with that limitation in the first Protestation, By all good and lawful means?
A85184If they are not resolved, will they take a contrary Oath, and so run the hazard of Perjury?
A85184In the fourth clause, what is meant by Malignants or evill instruments?
A85184In the second clause what is meant by Church government by Archbishops, Bishops,& c?
A85184In the third clause, what is meant by defending the Kings person in the defence of the true Religion, and Liberties of the Kingdoms?
A85184Is it a limitation, or not?
A85184Is it not an expresse Canon of the Apostle, Obey them that have oversight of you in the Lord?
A85184Is this their Divinity, to be thus unthankful?
A85184May the Reformation of Religion be brought in by Armes?
A85184Must our Musick stop upon a fret, and our Harmonie be disturbed by such harsh and unwelcome discords?
A85184Shall we then have no Consistories, or Courts at all?
A85184Shall we then have no more Judges upon the Bench?
A85184Suppose they were( which yet can not be yielded) how must they be suppressed?
A85184The Bishops( as it is objected but not proved) have corrupted the Gospell: and have not some Judges the Laws?

A6714623. and Why forgettest Thou Our misery?
A6714634. and who dare now go contrary?
A671467. and what was that?
A67146A lie there?
A67146A word very unadvisedly( by their good leaves) here used; Else, why was it then at the Reformation, turn''d out of Latin?
A67146Alas, how easily is this put by?
A67146And he has another Question about it also, that would be a little thought on, Is there not a Lie in my Right Hand?
A67146And how say you then?
A67146And how then?
A67146And how think you of this now?
A67146And must it go for His Covenant, that is so flatly against Him?
A67146And now what of them?
A67146And shall not then a consent of all the People be Sacred?
A67146And t is well we are, That we have a sufficient warrant by that; Otherwise perhaps we might be to seek, How to bring both ends together ▪ What?
A67146And what can be more?
A67146And what would we more?
A67146And why?
A67146And why?
A67146And yet for the while then, who but He?
A67146Arrant Assirians of a sudden to become so very holy?
A67146As the times long have gone, to be in a Covenant, and yet not to behave our selves perversly?
A67146BUt how then?
A67146Baal Berith a God?
A67146Because they never would think with themselves, Is there not a lie in my Right Hand?
A67146But how can that be the Case now among us?
A67146But how though did they it?
A67146But how was that?
A67146But is not this strange?
A67146But that, they so well knew to be His, Given by Him alone, and not taken up by men( no new Humane, Forgery shall I call it?
A67146But then among them of Judah also, those few that were no such Changelings, What became of them?
A67146But what shall we need to go further then the Text for it?
A67146But what talk we of promise?
A67146But who can help that?
A67146But yet, How shall we find it, Who they are?
A67146By the way then upon this, shall we not desire, that our godly Brethren would shew us, whether he be the same God, still?
A67146Damnation to them, that joyned not in such a Duty, How should other Men be able to Judge it?
A67146Did they so?
A67146Do you not see, how the Holy Spirit used it, even when the Name of God is joyned to it?
A67146Does it not shoulder His Covenant?
A67146Does this suit right?
A67146Find they any such medlies in Scripture, but of their good Brethren, the Samaritans?
A67146Find you any Lying at all, either in the Device, or in the Carriage of it?
A67146Gods Covenant point blank against Gods Anointed?
A67146How must this be unriddled?
A67146How so?
A67146How then?
A67146How?
A67146I should but trouble your memories, and tire you out, if I should draw you here to the several parcels of Moses Law?
A67146In the Name of God then, Who are these?
A67146Is any thing said there, in that Covenant, that you see is not, never was, intended?
A67146Is it not set up against God?
A67146Is it not?
A67146Is not, I pray, the same term of Covenanting given in Scripture to the vilest of all Gods Enemies?
A67146Is one thing said, and quite another thing done?
A67146Now God forbid: Why not?
A67146Now a''Gods name, what''s that?
A67146Now the Reason of all this, what is it, but thus?
A67146Oh, is that it?
A67146Or rather, clean contrary, very much of it, such as God abhorrs, so flat against Godliness, Loyalty, Justice, and Truth?
A67146Pactum Iuum, therefore they were still able to say to God, and not Pactum Nostrum?
A67146Perceive you nothing then?
A67146Say then, Find you false pretending in it?
A67146Shall we need any more?
A67146Such a one( not to name him now; though who knows not many thousand such Ones?)
A67146The Resolution of whole Nations much more be counted so, and without any Question be set upon Gods score?
A67146This was very well, was it not?
A67146To have any Engagement upon us, and yet not to deal falsly?
A67146Tryal by the Country, in this?
A67146Was God also at the making of it?
A67146What Covenant?
A67146What Logick call they This?
A67146What a notable Precedent for this have ye in the Prophet Jeremy?
A67146What means He by that?
A67146What shall we need more?
A67146What to do?
A67146What was His Name, that had power to call them to it, and to require it of them?
A67146Where are we now?
A67146Which of them sate at the Tables head for Him: Who was Gods Deputy in it?
A67146Which way should one of a Thousand among the People be able to tell himself, Whether it were the Covenant of God or no?
A67146Will any plead Ignorance in it?
A67146Will they be able to shew you, they have put nothing in their Covenant, but what was there of old, to be readily found in the Word and Will of God?
A67146Will you any more?
A67146[ Up Lord, why sleepest Thou?
A67146or rather idolatry, made, as Idols use ever to be, after some resemblance of Gods Covenant, and coloured very like it?)
A67146sits cheek by joll with it?
A67146who are They that speak this?
A67467And is not a double scandal against charity and duty both( for duty implieth charity) greater than a single scandal against charity alone?
A67467And who can help it, if a man will needs cherish an errour, and persist in it?
A67467Are we in the case of them, who as yet do any ask and have not received?
A67467As, Who are the Common Enemies?
A67467Else, what shall we say of the Indies and other barbarous Nations, to whom God never vouchsafed the lively Oracles of his written word?
A67467First, besides that all parties pretend to godliness, Papists, Anabaptists, and what not?
A67467For every Case of Conscience being only this — Is this action good or bad?
A67467For why?
A67467He liked better of him which enquired, Lord, what shall I do that I may be saved?
A67467How far knowledge and ignorance may aggravate or excuse, increase or diminish the goodness or evil of our Actions?
A67467How far that phrase of hindring Reformation may be extended?
A67467How the variety of Circumstances varies the goodness or evil of humane Actions?
A67467How then come they to be guilty of transgression?
A67467If these things be so, how comes it to pass that so many godly men should incline so much to this way?
A67467In what comprehension man is to be considered as the Object of Predestination?
A67467Is it for us to be made acquainted with the way he hath to bring his counsel& purposes about?
A67467Is this the Paradise, in description whereof so much glosing and deceiving eloquence hath been spent?
A67467Is this the milk and honey that hath been so spoken of?
A67467It is but attendance a small time, we shall rejoyce then; but how?
A67467May I do it, or may I not?
A67467Must we think that they were left a lawless people, without any Rule at all whereby to order their actions?
A67467Quis damnaverit eum, qui duabus potentissimis rebus defenditur, jure& mente?
A67467Say it be not well done of them to command it, Sed enim quid hoc refert tuâ?
A67467Shall a servant in a Family, rather than offend his fellow- servant, disobey his Master?
A67467There remaineth but one other Question, and that of far smaller difficulty; What is to be done when the Conscience is scrupulous?
A67467To all which demands I must Answer, Use the words of our Saviour Christ, quid hoc ad te, what are these things unto us?
A67467To which his reply was, A quarter of an hour?
A67467To whom is the beginning, and to whom the continuance of a quarrel rather imputable?
A67467What are the dreadful consequences of scrupling some indifferent things?
A67467What booteth it to others that we wish them well, and do nothing for them?
A67467What is meant by the supreme Iudicatory of both the Kingdoms?
A67467What measure of assurance we have concerning the salvation of such Infants, so baptized, if they die before they come to the use of Reason?
A67467Whether Christ was ordained a Mediator in the intention of God for mankind indefinitely, or universally for all mankind, or only for the Elect?
A67467Whether a person so justified and sanctified, can at the last fall away finally, and be damned?
A67467Whether all mankind have title to the second Covenant, and to the Promises and Conditions therein proposed, or the Elect only?
A67467Whether justification and sanctification be proper to the Elect only?
A67467Whether or no in electing men unto salvation God had respect unto Christ?
A67467Whether the King and Parliament ought to impose any more upon us in matters of Religion, than is imposed in the Scripture?
A67467Whether the efficacy of the grace of conversion depend upon the determination of man''s Free- will, so as by resisting to make it ineffectual?
A67467Whether the right use of naturals be any cause to induce God to confer upon any man sufficient Grace for his Conversion?
A67467Whether they that have taken the Covenant may Renounce it?
A67467Whether we English men may think our selves bound by the Solemn League and Covenant?
A67467Whether what the King and Parliament have determined may be altered to satisfie private men?
A67467Which Rule, what other could it be than the Law of Nature, and of right reason, imprinted in their hearts?

A67467and which be the best Reformed Churches?
A67467but where is the fault?
A67467have we after four hundred and thirty years left Egypt to come to this?
A67467it shall be opened, but with what hand?
A67467or interpret that power to the prejudice of Christian liberty?
A67467or to him that withholdeth it from him?
A67467or what need to* desire his Royal assent to that which may be done as well without it?
A67467or whether every one ought not to be left to serve God according to his best apprehensions out of the Scripture?
A67467saith he, What is that to thee?
A67467to him that demandeth his right?
A67467we shall find, but where?
A67467what languishings in the duties of his calling?
A57691And first, why is not this effectually a Parliament, seeing it is the Supream present power of the whole Nation, no part excluded?
A57691And how then should they expect to bestill necessary to them, and to their securities, who had put them into such apparent extremity and necessities?
A57691But I can not say the same may be done for the Covenant, for quo jure can it be done?
A57691But I pray you what doe people get when warres for recoveries of dubious rights are long and calamitous?
A57691But doth it follow however, that there can not be now any supream power at Westminster?
A57691But what hinders him from exercising any Kingly right in Scotland as yet?
A57691But what is this to the purpose?
A57691But whether should they be brought to punishment?
A57691But yet who can say they are not subject to the infirmities of ambition, avarice, and severe passions as well as other men?
A57691Can he think the Notion of our Church government would be a charme to such swords and consciences?
A57691First, how a Title may be recovered?
A57691For if he aske me, what it is that forms in- organizd people into a Government, of what sort soever?
A57691For the Commissioners of the Kirk said, they us''d their utmost endeavours to save the Kings life according to Covenant; but how?
A57691From all which what did he conclude, but that he would not allow of a Covenant- argument for his life?
A57691Here he at first begs the question, whether the Covenant can now engage us or no?
A57691How can such a supposed guilt in them, be in any part continued upon, and ascribed to us of the low ranke of the people?
A57691How is it then, that some of our Presbyterians say, that the same Covenant indispensably opens the doore to him here?
A57691If he had been kill''d in an action of Warre before, should the Souldier, or he who gave the Souldier commission have answered for his life?
A57691If he hath a quarrell to us for our peaceablenesse, yet why should he quarrell with St. Paul?
A57691If they sinned who did this, is that any thing to any but themselves?
A57691If you will aske how he came to be out of his Orbe or Country,?
A57691If you will say we should have been still obliged to act upon it, then I aske you againe under whom?
A57691If, what makes or takes away a Law in a Government established?
A57691If, what takes away a Government it selfe?
A57691Must we all that while cease to be men for the absence of that which we can not help?
A57691Or how shall we justifie the house of Commons for sitting, when the five Members durst not appear?
A57691Or rather can he assure us of his prophecy here, that if we begin new troubles, we shall certainly have victory?
A57691Or what was the world better for Alexanders Conquering it?
A57691Secondly, where was this Prince ever Crowned by which this Author meanes solemnly married to this state?
A57691The peoples question thereof is not how the change was made, but an sit whether it be so changed or noe?
A57691To this I answer; First, How knowes he certainely that the other power is onely in an ecclipse or suspended?
A57691What are the people of France or the people of Spaine better for the long and hereditary anger of their two Kings?
A57691What the nature of the things are to which we obliged our selves at first?
A57691Whether obedience be lawfull to Titles visibly unlawfull?
A57691Whether we be actually in the unsettlement& deepes which he supposes?
A57691Whither it be a Parliament?
A57691Whither the present power be the suprem?
A57691Whither the transactions of the legall number of the house be invaled, when any members are forct away?
A57691Who can call this Regall Language?
A57691Why did they Commissionate so many thousand Men, who by accidents of Warre had the power, though not the chance to kill him?
A57691Why then should these men thinke the world so dull as not to understand plainly enough, that the Covenant provided for his Death more wayes then one?
A57691a thing, why now so horrid for the other party to think on, seeing they gave first intimation of it?
A57691and secondly, How we of the people may rescue our selves from the slavery of any Titles?
A57691and seeing that of the State receives from this, not only its form and being, but what ever else you alone please to attribute to your security in it?
A57691and under whom, if not under our English supreame iudicatory?
A57691especially if in the mean time no more of that former marke can be had?
A57691or diminish any thing in themselves, to alter for the better?
A57691or now especially that we come into it after it is done, and after we are under the full possession of a present Power?
A57691the 6. interpret the words of utmost endeavour, as morally as we doe here?
A57691under what formall supream Magistracy can we now cooperate or receive publique orders, but from them?
A57691where was the benedictio sacra, the anointing or the Oath of Contract taken by him?
A57691will it be enough for us to rest in having attempted the utmost of our private endeavours with him?
A67901And I pray what are these but contradictions?
A67901And amongst the Covenanteers who shall Iudge as the Church?
A67901And does not their Covenant vow the punishment of all Delinquents, without any hope of pardon from his Majesty or themselves?
A67901And if any man will be a Reformer without a Commission, he must look to be checked with a Quis requisivit?
A67901And is not as absolute, as blinde an Obedience required by the framers of this Covenant?
A67901And may not the Covenanteers want the guilt of Constancy, as well as other men the guift of Continency?
A67901And when they are all met, at least by their Delegates, shall it be referred to most voyces to determine, which Church is best Reformed?
A67901Are we any whit the more secured in our persons or estates, so long as the root of all these evils is not truly taken away, but onely transplanted?
A67901Are we not hereby made sworne vassals and slaves to another Nation?
A67901But if it be the more peculiar function of the Clergy, then why doe other men intermedle in matters beside their calling?
A67901But if the Scots should prove as honest as they are wise, would there be any certainty of Peace among our English Covenanteers?
A67901But may I not adde from St Paul, r Thou that abhorrest Idols, Committest thou Sacriledge?
A67901But suppose the sins of Government did involve every one of our Nation in a common guilt; what is this to the Scots?
A67901But what is this to salve the Soloecisme?
A67901But will extirpation of Prelacy be sufficient to glut the malice of the Covenanteers?
A67901Certainly, then these destructive wayes of the Covenanteers do not lead immediately to it, but are they likely to end in Peace?

A69753And where ye aske of us, Why these tumults are not publickly by us condemned, and rebuked?
A69753And why doe they delay to give out some publicke Declaration, either in Print or writ, to this effect, being long since exhorted to doe so?

A28864Besides, doth not St. Paul justifie, that f none may preach, except they be sent?
A28864Boughen, Edward, 1587?-1660?
A28864Boughen, Edward, 1587?-1660?
A28864But can that be a just power, which deals unjustly?
A28864But e the Parliament is the supreme Court, by which all other Courts are to be regulated: what say we to that?
A28864But from whence comes this defect, or want of maintenance?
A28864But how can that be usurpata, which is data; both usurped, and given?
A28864But how comes it to passe, that if root and branch must up, yet by your Ordinance some branches of that root may be preserved?
A28864But how comes it to passe, that out of this Any of the Kingdome, you conclude against All the Rights of the Clergie?
A28864But how if they deceive the Kings trust, and abuse his confidence?
A28864But how long are these Laws in force?
A28864But how shall he protect us, that is not able to secure himself?
A28864But how shall it be proved, that Episcopacy is so bad, that it is a sin to defend it?
A28864But how shall they learn to govern, that know not how to obey?
A28864But how will you proove, that his Majestie hath sworne to uphold that, which is unjust or impious?
A28864But if these be good; that have indangered their lives to uphold Bishops, what are they, I beseech you, that have spent their blaod to root them out?
A28864But if they do, what then?
A28864But suppose, there were such a Law, as you- speak of, could it be just?
A28864But suppose, they shall make any such grant through ignorance, wilfulnesse, or evill counsell, shall it be of force?
A28864But they have no power to alter: that is in the King; or else, why do they Petition him so to this day, to make such changes good, as they contrive?
A28864But what Office was this, that Timothy and Titus did beare in the Church?
A28864But what are these Rights that you are so eagar to have abrogated?
A28864But what are these priviledges, and duties, whereof they are said to be despoiled?
A28864But what became of him?
A28864But what becomes of this consultation?
A28864But what follows upon this?
A28864But what if the Laws of the Land, what if Magna Charta do oblige all men to stand up for the due observation of these privileges?
A28864But what inconvenience will follow, if we confesse, that the intention of the Oath was changed, with the change of our condition?
A28864But what inconvenience, I pray you, ariseth to the people from the rights and priviledges of the Clergy?
A28864But what is this to prove, that by Christs warrant in Scripture a Presbyter is indued with power to rule in his eongregation?
A28864But what is this to the point in question?
A28864But what is this, that he calls power of Order?
A28864But what makes that So there?
A28864But what''s become of the regular way?
A28864But when was that time?
A28864But wherein is our condition changed?
A28864But wherein is the Kings Oath to the Clergie, inconsistent with his Oath to the people?
A28864But wherein n will the latter Oath be a present breach of the former and so unlawfull?
A28864But who are these Praepositi, these Rulers, here mentioned?
A28864But who did so?
A28864But who were these lands settled upon?
A28864But why am I so carefull to heap up instances?
A28864But why are you so suddenly fallen from an abolition, to an alteration?
A28864But why cheifly?
A28864But why do we o abhor Idols, and commit sacriledge?
A28864But why was this privilege abolisht, as incongruous to their calling?
A28864But why( I pray you) is the question proposed here, when you have determined it before?
A28864But will any wise man take your word for a Law, or imagine it to be more authentick, then the resolutions of all our fore- fathers?
A28864But you must be giving Orders, as well as the Bishop?
A28864But you must be k offering incense, as well as the High Priest?
A28864But, I beseech you, what is the meaning of these words, this will turn pomp into use?
A28864But, I pray you, what Society in Rule, can you chalenge with the Bishops, when by Scripture ye are made subject to them?
A28864But, in sober sadnesse, do you beleeve that the Abrogation of Episcopacy is that, they yawn at?
A28864By a just power, we see, this can not be done; how then shall it be done in a regular way?
A28864By taking Orders?
A28864Can they endure, that their power should be onely derivative, and that from the people?
A28864Damne up the fountain, or divert his course, and what becomes of the river?
A28864Desire you to know, who is the true owner?
A28864Destroy the Father, and how shall the Children be provided for?
A28864Do not you go about to make the Word of God a lye, while you endeavour to dis- inherit the Clergie of these privileges and honors?
A28864Do the people use to make Laws in a Monarchie?
A28864Does not your own Mr. Edwards professe, that never was there such plenty of Sects and Heresies?
A28864Doth it truly and justly agree with the Word of God; at least, not contradict it?
A28864Fed with an Ordinance, with words; but where''s the fift part?
A28864For are not these your words, that the change of the Clergies condition must needs change the intention of the Oath?
A28864For do not the Houses at this day Petition His Majestie, to make that a Law which they have voted?
A28864For do not you say plainly, that t there''s a Supremacie in the King, and a Supremacy in the Parliament?
A28864For do not you say thus?
A28864For do not you say ▪ that your second Ant ● gonist plainly ● ffi ● ms, that the King can not desert Episcopacy without flat perjury?
A28864For do not you tell us, that b ther''s a Supremacie in the King, and a Supremacie in the Parliament?
A28864For doth not S. Paul command Timothy, to y withdraw himself from those, that teach unwholsome Doctrine?
A28864For doth not our Saviour say, b He that receiveth whomsoever I send, receiveth me?
A28864For doth not your Title page speak thus?
A28864For how many of you have been instituted into Benefices by lay Chancelours?
A28864For o who may say unto him, what doest thou?
A28864For what have the Clergie besides their Orders, priviledges, and immunities; besides their Jurisdiction and revenues?
A28864From abrogation to alteration?
A28864Hath he forfeited it?
A28864Hath he resigned it?
A28864Hath not Mr. Geree set you in the sleep way to ruine?
A28864Hath not all been done by tumults, and insurrections?
A28864Have not they done wrong?
A28864Have we forgot that?
A28864Have we some privileges, that the Laity have not?
A28864Have you a desire to know, what true justice is?
A28864Have you not alreadie dis- roabed them of their honors?
A28864Have you not made them house- lesse, harbourlesse, not able to keep a servant?
A28864Have you not plundred their houses, and seized their Lands?
A28864Here was wrong done; But to whom, think you?
A28864How came you to spie this foule mistake?
A28864How can he then disclaime this Oath?
A28864How comes this to passe?
A28864How if they break the Lawfull Circle, and transgresse the Customs of Parliament?
A28864How like you this, my rich Masters of London?
A28864How like you this?
A28864How many have been inforced to flye with all secrecy from Westminster, because they would not passe their Vo ● es against Law and conscience?
A28864How oft have the Kings of this Realm ingaged themselves to observe Magna Charta, and to maintain the rights and liberties of the Church?
A28864How prove you that?
A28864How then can I give away Gods inheritance to the Edomites& Ishmalites, lest perchance they enter forcibly upon it?
A28864How then can he desert them, or leave them out of his protection?
A28864How then can he infringe this Oath?
A28864How then did we forfeit g our birth- right?
A28864How then must he attain the Priesthood?
A28864How then shall he treat in Parliament with those, that have no being?
A28864How then?
A28864How?
A28864How?
A28864How?
A28864How?
A28864I beseech you, do you dream?
A28864I. G. p. 9. n I. G. p. 9. o If the King should be peremptory in deniall, what help would this be to them?
A28864If He be the onely Supreme, how shall we find another Supreme, or an equall to him within his own Dominions?
A28864If all ● ffi ● es must be discarded, because the officers have done a misse, what office will remain in this Kingdom?
A28864If he hath power, where is it?
A28864If his Majestie have endeavoured to do that, which is right, what are they, that have hindered him from doing it?
A28864If it be a sin, and an heinous sin, c how then can I commit this great wickednesse, and sin against God?
A28864If it be, why are you so zealous, to distinguish us and our privileges, from the people and their priviledges?
A28864If one be abolished, why may not the other be removed?
A28864If then all these and many more are peculiar to Soveraignty, what is left for the Parliament?
A28864If then it be Treason to slay the Prelate, what sin is it to murder Prelacy?
A28864If there be no Prelates, where''s the treatie?
A28864If this Governour now surrender this Towne upon composition, doth he violate his Oath?
A28864In at subjection, out at immunities?
A28864In at taxes, out at privileges?
A28864Inconsistent with the Kings Oath to the people?
A28864Indeed a if it were all one member, where were the body?
A28864Indeed i he makes a wonder, that any man should doubt of it; For how can the Office be maintained without means?
A28864Indeed you say that, which is equivalent; for are not these your words; g He can not now deny consent( to their abolition) without sin?
A28864Is Episcopacy bad, because Gregory VII ▪ of Rome, George of Cappadocia, or Paulus Samosatenus abused their place and function?
A28864Is it equall then, I beseech you, to ingage the lives of some, to destroy the honour and estate of others?
A28864Is it no sin?
A28864Is it not enough by this extirpation to barre your selves from heaven, unlesse ye sink your posteritie into the same damnation?
A28864Is it not enough to murder Priests, unlesse ye slay the Priestood also?
A28864Is it not fit, that we should all have share, and share like, as had the children of Israel in the land of promise?
A28864Is it to sit in the House of Peers?
A28864Is not the case put right?
A28864Is not this a flat contradiction?
A28864Is not this as Philo Judaeus hath it, to x make God a shelter for our wickednesse, and to cast our sin upon him?
A28864Is not this flatly against the Oath of Supremacy?
A28864Is not this that sacra fames, that sacred hunger, which is so greedy of all that is called sacred?
A28864Is not this the blessing they have gained by that hideous and senselesse out- cry?
A28864Is not this the crying sinne, the grand Monopolie of these times?
A28864Is not this the way to lead in Jeroboams Priests; to fill the Pulpits with the scum of the people, and to bring the Priesthood into utter contempt?
A28864Is not this to c blaspheme the footsteps of the Lords anointed?
A28864Is not this to cast aside not onely a fore- head, but all conscience, and the fear of God?
A28864Is not this to question the actions of those Saints d to whom the Faith was first delivered?
A28864Is perjurie a sin, or no sin?
A28864Is the Apostleship naught, because Judas abused himself and that?
A28864Is the Kings O ● ● h, or Episcopacy, or the abr ● ga ● i ● n of Episcopacy but a circumstance?
A28864Is the Ministery Lawfull, or no?
A28864Is there no danger of sacriledge in robbing father and mother?
A28864Is this Justice?
A28864Is this any thing to the Church?
A28864Is this equalitie?
A28864Is this gratitude?
A28864Is this possible?
A28864Is this the fashion, first to resolve, and then to argue the case?
A28864Is this the way to invite men of worth, to incorporate themselves into your Presbyteriall Hierarchie?
A28864Is this to be good?
A28864Is this to be just?
A28864King and subject, Preist, and people, composers, approvers, takers, all dimme- sighted?
A28864Mark that: are we not all, both spirituall and temporall, bound to maintain each others privileges, as much as in us lies?
A28864Nay who shall beget children of the Church, when she is void of an Husband?
A28864Nay, are we so well dealt with as the lowest members of this Nation?
A28864Next, when the Church is stripped of her means, what kinde of Clergie shall we have?
A28864No danger in the subversion of the Church?
A28864No danger?
A28864One body Politick?
A28864Or, if you will, for their personall worth?
A28864Others are content to Covenant, Vote, or do any thing to save their own stakes; For to what purpose were it for them to withstand?
A28864Otherwise what strange confusion must necessarily have overspread the face of the Church, if this distinction had not been religiously preserved?
A28864Quo quid ab surdius dici potest?
A28864Shall she not in their absence be layed open to the subtill foxes, and mercilesse bores to wast and distroy her?
A28864Sir, will you keep Peace and godly agreement entirely( according to your power) both to God and the Holy Church, the Clergie and the people?
A28864Sir, will you( to your power) cause Law, Justice, and Discretion in mercie, and truth to be executed in all your Judgments?
A28864Suppose, the Bishops were faulty, shall God be turned out of his possessions, because his servants are to blame?
A28864Take these away, and what becomes of the Sacraments?
A28864That abrogation is the repealing, the disanulling of a Law; and not the changing of it?
A28864The Bishop is the ministeriall Spouse of the Church: how then can the Church be protected, if her husband be taken from her, or stripped of his means?
A28864The Bishop your father, and the Church your mother?
A28864The Bishops wealth, honor, and miters were your aim; these you have preached for, these you have fought for; what would you more?
A28864The Law of God we confesse to be the Supreme Law?
A28864The first is this, e If any can not rule his own house, how shall he take care for the Church?
A28864The peoples Laws?
A28864The question is, d Whether the King, notwithstanding his oath, may consent with a safe conscience, to the abrogation of Episcopacy?
A28864Their Laws?
A28864Thou, that preachest, a man should not steal, doest thou steal?
A28864Thus far Mr. Gerees question: what think you of it?
A28864To his subjects?
A28864To what purpose then are those words; d The abrogation will be just, as well as legall, there will be no injury done?
A28864To whom?
A28864To whose hands then should I chiefly present it, but to Yours?
A28864To whose trust were these committed?
A28864Was it forgotten?
A28864Was it settled by Christ, or no?
A28864Was not that provided for this State?
A28864Was not this as fair a pretence as yours, or as any you can invent?
A28864Was not this to turn impediments into helps?
A28864Was the first sworn in truth, and judgement, and righteousnesse?
A28864We have the same right; and why not the same protection?
A28864Well, what kinde of Government was there in the primitive Church?
A28864Well, what then?
A28864Were they not removed, to make way for these civill broils?
A28864Were they not thrust out, lest the King should have too many faithfull Counsellors in the House?
A28864What Law is there to countenance, what of late yeares hath been done against us?
A28864What did it?
A28864What difference, I pray you, between lands, purchased by the society of Goldsmiths, and such as are freely given to that Company?
A28864What have ye fought for?
A28864What if I should tell you, that you have altered the state of the question?
A28864What if a man should say, that this assertion is not true?
A28864What if any shall make an unjust Law, a Law without equity?
A28864What is become of it?
A28864What is to be done in this case?
A28864What may we then think of an oath taken with such high Solemnity?
A28864What mean you by circumstance?
A28864What multitudes are there in this Kingdom, that mourn and grieve to see Religion so opprest, so trampled on, and almost breathing out her last?
A28864What reason can you give, why that should suffer, that can not erre; that never offended?
A28864What say you to that memorable convention at Auspurg, where met all, or most of the learned, that endeavoured the Reformation?
A28864What say you to that principle of reason, l Propter quod aliquid est tale, illud est magis tale?
A28864What shall now become of your Case of Conscience?
A28864What then becomes of that Church, where there is no Bishop?
A28864What then shall become of the people?
A28864What would you more?
A28864What, because Presbyters offer up the prayers and supplications of the Church?
A28864What, for this cause?
A28864What, two Supremacies, two superlatives, at the same time, in the same Kingdom?
A28864What?
A28864What?
A28864What?
A28864What?
A28864What?
A28864What?
A28864What?
A28864What?
A28864What?
A28864When did we ever desire, or perswade his Majestie, to do the least injurie to people, or Parliament?
A28864When was this Oath, I beseech you, framed?
A28864Whence is it then, that the Bishops are thrust out of the House of Peers; and that none of us may vote, or sit in the House of Commons?
A28864Where is the orderly alteration, you speak of?
A28864Where the Parliament?
A28864Where then are the two Supremacies, which we erect?
A28864Where then is the Parliaments Supremacy?
A28864Where then is the Writ?
A28864Where then is their Supreme power?
A28864Where under pretence of the Common good, they ingrosse all into their own clutches?
A28864Who dare then after this foundation?
A28864Who made them makers ▪ or Masters of the Laws?
A28864Who then dares say, they ought not, or shall not?
A28864Who then shall obey?
A28864Who told you, that His Majestie had condescended to this impious and Antichristian demand?
A28864Why doest thou call a Parliament at this time, and not at that?
A28864Why doest thou honour this man, and not that?
A28864Why doth Q. Elizabeth call them l a great State of this Kingdome, if they be no State at all?
A28864Why rob we God, as if he were an Idol, not sensible of these wrongs, nor able to revenge them?
A28864Why then are our Rights and Liberties so strook at, and exposed to contempt and sale?
A28864Why then are they called Peers; when they are not so much as Peers to the people, but their substitutes, if not servants?
A28864Why then do you perswade the King to break his oath?
A28864Why, what''s become of the Oath of Supremacy?
A28864Why?
A28864Will not our Church then come to a sweet passe?
A28864Will you hear the motives?
A28864With what face then can we fall back, and wilfully incurre perjury?
A28864With what face then can you say, that the Kings Oath to the Clergie can not be consistent with the priviledges of the Nation?
A28864Would you have all these, or onely some of these abolished?
A28864YOu Object, and we confesse, that a this oath to the Clergie, must not be intended in a sense, inconsistent with the Kings Oath to the people?
A28864You and your great contrivers, what have ye laboured for, all this while?
A28864again fallen from the question?
A28864and d slander the footsteps of those anointed of the Lord, that have so long slept in peace?
