5. In opposition to this misshapen Argument of the Def. taken from Non-conformists confession, the Rep. propounded one, from the Conformists confession: You say these Ceremonies are Divine, and yet dare not deny, but the rejecting of them in other Churches, is Divine.

You retain these Ceremonies as Divine, and yet reject other Ceremonies, of like nature, as divine as these. What divinity (or agreement) is in such courses? To this, the Rejoinder answereth, that this argueth an ill conscience: because the Def. doeth not say that these our Ceremonies are Divine, but that in respect of permissive appointment, and in these, they are divine, in particular, and hypothesi, humane. And this may be said of the different Ceremonies of several Churches. For ill Conscience, I will not be so liberal in charging the Rejoinder as he is prodigal of it toward the Repl. But ill science I can easily prove. For 1. He denieth the Def. to call our Ceremonies Divine: because (forsooth) he calleth them so in the general, and not in their special: for so the Def. doeth interpret his own terms.
