1. In this Reply, you take not off what I urged, viz. If there be only heart Reformation, then must you raze out the first Article of the Covenant, which binds to a Reformation in Worship, Discipline, and Government, which is a Reformation distinct from heart Reformation; but against this you speak not a word in this Reply, then I'll conclude that your silence gives consent.

The Covenant, according to the true intention of it, ties to the Preservation of the Reformed Religion in the Church of Scotland in Doctrine, Worship, Discipline, and Government; but you like not that: you had rather pull down then preserve the Discipline of the Church of Scotland, it being Presbyterial; yea▪ you call that the carnal Church that calls for the aide of the civil Magistrate for his civil sanction, which Scotland doth; and will you make me believe you would preserve that Church or Government?
