EXAMINER.

The A Policy of the Sermon of Re∣formation.

THE Scope of the Sermon is Reformation, but it so B moderates, so modificates, and conditionates the Persons, and Time, and Businesse, that Reforma∣tion can advance C little in this way, or Method. As our Astronomers who draw so many Lines and imagi∣nary Circles in the Heavens, that they put the Sunne into an heavenly Labyrinth and learned D perplexity; such is the Zodiack E you would make for the light of the Gospell, and the Sunne of Reformation to move in. It was one of the Policyes of the Jewas F Adversaries that when they heard of their Buildings, they would build with them. They said, let us build with you, for we seeke your God as you doe. But the People of God would have no such Helpers, there is no such G Jesuiticall way to hinder our worke as to work with us, and under such Insinnations set the Builders at vari∣ance when they should fall to labour. And how easie is it to reason Flesh and Blood back from a good way and good Resolutions? I remember the old H Prophet had soon per∣swaded even the man of God to returne when he told him I am a Prophet as thou art. * 1.1
