to_o meddle_v with_o the_o question_n otherwise_o that_o the_o jesuit_n never_o do_v at_o any_o time_n teach_v in_o this_o matter_n otherwise_o then_o what_o be_v the_o common_a doctrine_n of_o

i_o prove_v by_o the_o authority_n of_o henry_n the_o great_a our_o dear_a sovereign_n grandfather_n who_o when_o this_o doctrine_n of_o the_o pope_n depose_v king_n be_v object_v against_o the_o

in_o the_o speech_n itself_o which_o i_o have_v insert_v in_o the_o next_o chapter_n this_o the_o action_n of_o the_o same_o king_n if_o his_o word_n be_v not_o exstant_fw-la will_v make_v plain_a to_o all_o the_o world_n for_o how_o can_v it_o be_v imagine_v that_o he_o who_o be_v in_o the_o account_n of_o all_o a_o very_a wise_a man_n shall_v admit_v into_o his_o kingdom_n man_n that_o hold_v

the_o orator_n for_o his_o own_o ruin_n he_o will_v never_o have_v make_v it_o his_o business_n to_o plead_v for_o the_o jesuit_n and_o command_v their_o admission_n nay_o further_o to_o take_v they_o

their_o doctrine_n contain_v nothing_o singular_a to_o the_o prejudice_n of_o sovereignty_n i_o easy_o believe_v that_o those_o who_o have_v already_o calumny_v the_o society_n in_o this_o matter_n

which_o you_o turn_v to_o their_o dispraise_n any_o just_a umpire_n will_v attribute_v to_o their_o virtue_n but_o that_o which_o i_o most_o wonder_n at_o your_o judgement_n for_o be_v that_o so_o preposterous_o you_o condemn_v the_o society_n of_o ambition_n whereas_o the_o father_n of_o the_o society_n with_o a_o constant_a submission_n have_v ever_o refuse_v all_o honour_n &_o preferment_n

when_o they_o be_v free_o offer_v unto_o they_o consider_v their_o whole_a course_n of_o life_n and_o you_o shall_v find_v that_o all_o their_o ambition_n be_v to_o labour_v for_o to_o help_v all_o and_o that_o without_o any_o pretence_n of_o interest_n or_o gain_n they_o value_v not_o the_o expense_n of_o their_o own_o pain_n so_o they_o may_v profit_v many_o 5._o but_o you_o call_v into_o question_n the_o very_a name_n of_o the_o society_n of_o jesus_n and_o for_o that_o you_o tax_v they_o but_o see_v with_o what_o reason_n for_o if_o they_o must_v be_v blame_v for_o that_o holy_a name_n what_o shall_v we_o say_v for_o those_o religious_a person_n who_o take_v their_o name_n from_o the_o most_o bless_a trinity_n and_o your_o daughter_n here_o at_o paris_n what_o will_v you_o

they_o condemn_v they_o be_v innocent_a unknown_a and_o unheard_a for_o this_o i_o call_v to_o witness_v those_o very_a divine_v themselves_o who_o now_o admit_v they_o who_o their_o predecessor_n

be_v the_o cause_n of_o this_o opposition_n all_o be_v that_o the_o father_n do_v not_o only_o equal_v other_o in_o learning_n and_o industry_n but_o also_o go_v far_o beyond_o they_o a_o clear_a testimony_n of_o this_o be_v the_o great_a number_n of_o youth_n that_o frequent_v the_o father_n school_n where_o together_o with_o learning_n they_o learn_v virtue_n but_o to_o stop_v this_o
