Thirdly, Take heed of those Doctrines that come under the notion of New-light; those doctrines you ought to suspect, whether true, which the broachers of them say are New; for truth is as old as the Bible: A remarkable passage I would suggest unto you, in the 32 of Deuteronomy and the 17. it is said there, they chose them New Gods that were Newly come up, and what were these New Gods? the next words tell you, they were old devils; for they sacrificed to devils and not to God; now their sacrificing to old devils, it is called a sacrificing (to deceive the people) to new Gods, that were newly come up; yet their new Gods were but old devils; Why, so I say, though many things go under the notion of New-light, yet they are but old darkness, old Heresies raked out of the dunghill, and which were buried in former ages of the Church, with contempt and reproach many hundred years ago.

Fourthly, Bewail your great loss which you have in the taking away of so many Ministers out ⟨p. 6⟩of your City; there are ten Ministers (if I mistake not) that have been taken away and removed at one blow, who were burning and shining lights in their several Candlesticks, and bright Stars in their several Orbs; Though I am not worthy of the world, and therefore am taken out of it, yet as for my suffering Brethren, who are now in bonds and banishment, the world is not worthy of them.
