 2 20|          God-fearing and anxious consciences find by experience that
 3 20|    greatest consolation, because consciences cannot be set at rest through
 4 20|        righteousness.~Heretofore consciences were plagued with the doctrine
 5 20|          to the end that anxious consciences should not be without consolation
 6 22|  compelled with offense to their consciences to do otherwise. And because
 7 24|    consolation it brings anxious consciences, that they may learn to
 8 25| consolation it brings to anxious consciences, also, that God requires
 9 25|          not necessary, and that consciences be not burdened with anxiety
10 25|        those that are recounted, consciences could never find peace;
11 26|        did greatly terrify men's consciences, if they should omit any
12 26|         greatly tormented devout consciences, which grieved that they
13 26|          brought great danger to consciences; for it was impossible to
14 26|      mitigations whereby to ease consciences, and yet they do not sufficiently
15 26|          but sometimes entangle, consciences even more. And with the
