Obs. I do Observe, indeed, that they Shelter themselves under the Dark Prophets, and the Revelation. The Number of the Beast, they have all at their Fingers Ends; the Geneva-Bibles are Thumm'd over and over, at the Same Texts: As upon the Subject of the Groves, & the High Places, Christian Liberty, Will-Worship, Humane Inventions, Idolatry, Superstition, &c. There's not a Verse in the whole Bible, against Persecution, but makes them Shake their Heads at the Government. Popery by Interpretation, is Episcopacy: The Liberty of the Subject, has an Aking Tooth at the Prerogative of the Prince: But finally; such and such Terms, and Forms of Speaking, are, by Common Consent, to pass for Current, under such or such a Sense, and Meaning, how Contrary soever, to their Proper, and Genuine Signification, or Import. But this speaks only to the Propagating of Jelousies, not to the Rise of them.
Trim. If you Ask me the [Rise] of Jelousies, I must Answer ye, that they are Begotten betwixt Ambition, Avarice, Hypocrisy, Craft, Malice, and Disloyalty, on the One side; and Ignorance, Obstinacy, Blind Zeal, and an Impetuous Temerity, on the Other.
