a_o answer_n to_o the_o ten_o counter_v demand_n propound_v by_o t._n drake_n preacher_n of_o the_o word_n at_o h._n and_o d._n in_o the_o county_n of_o essex_n by_o wil._n euring_n prov_n 9.12_o if_o

manner_n of_o some_o quarrelsome_a person_n that_o be_v beat_v by_o one_o adversary_n too_o strong_a for_o they_o they_o be_v not_o quiet_a in_o their_o mind_n till_o they_o have_v get_v another_o with_o who_o they_o hope_v to_o deal_v well_o enough_o and_o to_o beat_v the_o former_a upon_o his_o back_n wreck_v upon_o he_o all_o that_o anger_n which_o they_o have_v harbour_v in_o their_o heart_n against_o the_o other_o but_o can_v not_o utter_v as_o they_o desire_v so_o it_o seem_v to_o be_v with_o this_o man_n who_o have_v have_v of_o late_o as_o it_o be_v report_v much_o combat_v with_o the_o morris-dauncing-papists_a and_o atheist_n in_o his_o parish_n whereof_o late_o he_o be_v minister_n and_o find_v they_o too_o hard_o for_o he_o and_o that_o instead_o of_o be_v sheep_n to_o follow_v he_o they_o come_v with_o open_a mouth_n like_o wolf_n both_o against_o the_o sheep_n and_o shepherd_n he_o have_v think_v it_o best_o see_v these_o wolf_n thus_o come_v to_o save_v himself_o by_o fly_v to_o a_o other_o place_n leave_v the_o poor_a sheep_n in_o the_o same_o foul_v with_o the_o wolf_n to_o shift_v for_o themselves_o as_o they_o can_v but_o not_o rest_v so_o he_o have_v bethink_v he_o of_o a_o other_o sort_n of_o adversary_n with_o who_o he_o hope_v more_o easy_o to_o deal_v and_o these_o be_v the_o poor_a separatist_n against_o who_o he_o have_v also_o those_o morris-dancer_n and_o many_o great_a than_o they_o to_o take_v his_o part_n they_o he_o encounter_v stout_o with_o ten_o counterdemand_n as_o he_o call_v they_o with_o which_o as_o with_o so_o

not_o because_o he_o have_v answer_v but_o only_o see_v as_o i_o hear_v 7_o demand_n of_o they_o some_o good_a space_n since_o propound_v by_o they_o these_o he_o shall_v rather_o have_v answer_v in_o my_o judgement_n if_o he_o can_v for_o the_o defence_n of_o his_o church_n communion_n government_n ministry_n and_o worship_n but_o it_o seem_v he_o have_v rather_o ask_v then_o answer_v question_n as_o what_o bungler_n can_v better_v strike_v then_o fence_n and_o so_o his_o meaning_n be_v to_o set_v these_o his_o ten_o counterdemand_n against_o their_o seven_o demand_n that_o so_o they_o may_v knock_v head_n together_o to_o see_v who_o be_v hard_a since_o than_o it_o must_v be_v so_o i_o will_v first_o set_v down_o those_o seven_o and_o after_o answer_v his_o ten_o simple_o without_o all_o
