in_o his_o first_o edition_n of_o this_o pamphlet_n and_o all_o this_o upon_o your_o credit_n as_o he_o tell_v you_o but_o if_o this_o author_n shall_v fall_v under_o this_o misfortune_n that_o neither_o you_o doctor_n nor_o any_o sober_a wise_a man_n shall_v approve_v of_o his_o abortive_a birth_n from_o his_o false_a conception_n how_o can_v he_o make_v the_o nation_n a_o compensation_n for_o these_o abuse_n as_o without_o all_o peradventure_o the_o case_n will_v appear_v to_o every_o one_o that_o consider_v impartial_o the_o plot_n itself_o that_o it_o be_v not_o a_o inextricable_a labyrinth_n but_o in_o truth_n be_v pure_a and_o easy_a matter_n of_o fact_n and_o the_o essence_n thereof_o lie_v not_o at_o all_o in_o any_o of_o those_o by-circumstantials_a mr._n roger_n have_v make_v use_n of_o and_o as_o he_o say_v for_o his_o own_o end_n which_o be_v certain_o true_a for_o they_o be_v not_o in_o the_o least_o to_o the_o advantage_n of_o the_o nation_n the_o governor_n or_o government_n the_o protestant_a religion_n nor_o the_o king_n witness_n but_o in_o apparent_a and_o great_a dishonour_n to_o all_o in_o his_o next_o paragraph_n he_o cry_v out_o what_o innocence_n can_v warrant_n against_o envy_n or_o authority_n protect_v when_o le_fw-fr strange_n come_v to_o be_v arraign_v as_o a_o papist_n for_o show_v the_o likely_a be_v to_o extirpate_v popery_n and_o yourname_n can_v protect_v he_o in_o it_o nay_o he_o tell_v you_o it_o be_v well_o if_o you_o can_v uphold_v yourself_o if_o this_o go_v on_o and_o conclude_v that_o none_o can_v fall_v foul_a upon_o that_o discovery_n without_o wound_v your_o evidence_n now_o certain_o have_v this_o author_n as_o well_o believe_v the_o truth_n of_o this_o reason_n as_o he_o can_v but_o imagine_v other_o do_v he_o will_v never_o under_o this_o disguise_n of_o friendship_n to_o you_o doctor_n have_v undertake_v thus_o public_o to_o vilify_v you_o alas_o he_o talk_v of_o innocence_n that_o be_v beg_v the_o question_n i_o know_v not_o of_o any_o that_o can_v be_v allow_v he_o by_o any_o one_o in_o his_o right_a wit_n nor_o do_v i_o know_v nor_o never_o hear_v but_o from_o himself_o that_o ever_o he_o do_v or_o can_v show_v any_o way_n that_o be_v likely_a to_o extirpate_v popery_n i_o admire_v at_o his_o confidence_n to_o adventure_v upon_o such_o a_o subject_n to_o the_o people_n which_o only_o and_o single_o appertain_v to_o the_o magistracy_n and_o i_o think_v he_o have_v cause_n to_o rejoice_v that_o he_o be_v not_o question_v for_o a_o seditious_a pamphletteer_n for_o that_o his_o work_n in_o such_o a_o time_n as_o this_o be_v which_o call_v for_o our_o union_n not_o division_n he_o say_v some_o call_v his_o book_n jesuitical_a for_o my_o part_n i_o think_v there_o be_v no_o man_n in_o his_o right_a wit_n that_o can_v judge_v less_o of_o his_o book_n than_o call_v the_o scope_n and_o drift_n of_o it_o of_o a_o jesuitical_a stamp_n but_o what_o be_v that_o to_o you_o doctor_n do_v it_o therefore_o follow_v that_o because_o he_o have_v write_v a_o book_n deserve_v that_o censure_n you_o must_v be_v account_v a_o papist_n that_o be_v no_o way_n privy_a to_o it_o but_o this_o consequence_n be_v like_o the_o rest_n but_o upon_o hard_o pump_v he_o have_v endeavour_v to_o bring_v you_o in_o by_o head_n and_o shoulder_n for_o he_o say_v he_o have_v your_o word_n and_o oath_n for_o it_o for_o you_o swear_v the_o priest_n and_o jesuit_n herd_n themselves_o among_o the_o nonconformist_n they_o deny_v it_o and_o yet_o prove_v themselves_o in_o the_o plot_n and_o discredit_v the_o king_n evidence_n what_o hocus_n pocus_fw-la be_v here_o i_o be_o sure_a in_o no_o part_n of_o your_o evidence_n be_v it_o swear_v they_o herd_n with_o nonconformist_n nor_o

if_o they_o shelter_n not_o themselves_o in_o conventicle_n and_o field-meeting_n to_o stir_v up_o broil_n in_o the_o government_n what_o become_v of_o your_o testimony_n and_o none_o but_o papist_n will_v oppose_v the_o ferret_v they_o out_o what_o he_o mean_v or_o what_o he_o will_v be_v at_o if_o you_o know_v doctor_n it_o be_v well_o but_o for_o my_o part_n i_o understand_v not_o the_o

if_o they_o can_v therefore_o all_o the_o dessenter_n from_o the_o church_n of_o england_n in_o england_n be_v guilty_a of_o the_o plot_n i_o be_o very_o confident_a the_o mean_a of_o grammarian_n
