expedient_a for_o all_o catholic_n if_o the_o effect_n be_v correspondent_a to_o the_o word_n but_o in_o stead_n of_o make_v a_o union_n of_o catholic_n they_o have_v use_v this_o holy_a pretext_n to_o have_v a_o cast_v only_o at_o the_o king_n &_o to_o divide_v the_o catholic_n by_o this_o mean_n into_o side_n bring_v in_o by_o this_o division_n all_o the_o disorder_n and_o riot_n that_o you_o

catholic_n be_v now_o divide_v and_o at_o variance_n among_o themselves_o &_o that_o the_o honest_a sort_n call_v this_o league_n a_o union_n of_o rebel_n and_o a_o faction_n of_o conspirator_n &_o the_o reason_n why_o they_o call_v it_o so_o be_v because_o they_o have_v join_v their_o drift_n to_o reform_v the_o estate_n with_o the_o pretext_n of_o the_o holy_a league_n whereby_o they_o have_v plain_o meddle_v with_o the_o king_n and_o call_v his_o authority_n in_o question_n that_o which_o the_o more_o virtuous_a and_o honest_a sort_n can_v allow_v for_o that_o as_o i_o have_v say_v before_o in_o the_o second_o chapter_n of_o the_o book_n that_o i_o have_v already_o setforth_o and_o as_o i_o will_v show_v you_o hereafter_o more_o at_o large_a be_v not_o permit_v of_o god_n &_o see_v for_o certain_a that_o which_o have_v cause_v all_o true_a catholic_n to_o hate_n &_o contemn_v this_o league_n &_o alliance_n although_o they_o never_o find_v one_o word_n of_o truth_n in_o all_o that_o the_o lorraine_n prince_n promise_v be_v the_o first_o author_n of_o this_o conspiracy_n they_o have_v swear_v and_o protest_v to_o you_o to_o encourage_v you_o &_o to_o make_v you_o think_v well_o of_o their_o factious_a fetch_n &_o proceed_n that_o they_o wish_v the_o ruin_n of_o heretic_n and_o under_o this_o false_a pretence_n they_o have_v attempt_v against_o their_o king_n they_o let_v their_o army_n take_v up_o the_o best_a place_n of_o this_o realm_n and_o lodge_v themselves_o and_o their_o soldier_n where_o never_o any_o soldier_n come_v before_o and_o the_o profit_n that_o you_o reap_v thereby_o be_v their_o troop_n of_o soldier_n be_v round_o about_o your_o city_n who_o use_n and_o entreat_v you_o as_o turk_n and_o not_o as_o their_o catholic_a brethren_n they_o promise_v to_o cause_v the_o king_n soldier_n to_o keep_v good_a rule_n &_o yet_o you_o never_o see_v more_o detestable_a thief_n than_o these_o that_o go_v to_o the_o war_n now_o for_o they_o these_o be_v say_v they_o catholic_n of_o the_o holy_a league_n &_o yet_o they_o force_v woman_n they_o ravish_v the_o daughter_n of_o catholic_n they_o beat_v priest_n they_o prison_n they_o &_o hang_v

country_n of_o they_o but_o if_o any_o one_o show_v a_o countenance_n as_o though_o he_o will_v defend_v himself_o they_o let_v he_o alone_o and_o seek_v but_o those_o that_o be_v without_o all_o defence_n and_o can_v resist_v and_o special_o above_o all_o those_o that_o be_v full_a of_o money_n who_o have_v reconcile_v themselves_o within_o the_o compass_n of_o the_o church_n and_o be_v
