and_o impartial_a reader_n to_o examine_v this_o affair_n of_o the_o mannerly_a and_o this_o time_n i_o will_v not_o judge_v neither_o for_o myself_o nor_o he_o but_o however_o notwithstanding_o this_o little_a displeasure_n of_o my_o answerer_n 24._o it_o clear_v up_o again_o with_o he_o he_o pardon_v all_o frank_o and_o we_o be_v content_v say_v he_o they_o shall_v ridicule_n our_o church_n if_o they_o will_v permit_v we_o true_o to_o represent_v they_o here_o now_o we_o have_v a_o liberty_n grant_v of_o ridicul_v which_o i_o resolve_v never_o to_o make_v use_n of_o unless_o it_o be_v to_o show_v how_o they_o ridicule_n the_o church_n of_o rome_n but_o instead_o of_o return_v my_o thanks_o for_o this_o favour_n i_o be_o even_o resolve_v to_o beg_v another_o and_o it_o be_v that_o the_o answerer_n will_v be_v please_v not_o to_o take_v that_o for_o ridicul_v in_o we_o which_o in_o they_o he_o call_v true_o represent_v this_o will_v be_v a_o very_a signal_n favour_v indeed_o if_o it_o can_v be_v obtain_v but_o i_o almost_o despair_v for_o by_o all_o that_o i_o can_v discover_v in_o their_o true_o represent_v it_o be_v so_o unlike_o what_o he_o call_v it_o that_o nothing_o can_v be_v more_o underserving_a that_o name_n for_o let_v but_o a_o exact_a copy_n be_v take_v of_o what_o they_o do_v to_o the_o papist_n when_o they_o true_o represent_v they_o as_o they_o call_v it_o with_o all_o its_o method_n and_o circumstance_n let_v the_o same_o measure_n they_o use_v to_o they_o be_v apply_v to_o any_o other_o body_n or_o society_n even_o to_o their_o own_o church_n of_o england_n and_o if_o it_o do_v not_o appear_v to_o be_v down_o right_o misrepresent_v and_o ridicul_v instead_o of_o true_o represent_v i_o will_v even_o throw_v up_o the_o cause_n and_o grant_v the_o papist_n to_o be_v as_o black_a as_o they_o make_v they_o this_o appear_v something_o already_o in_o the_o character_n now_o examine_v which_o he_o own_v to_o be_v ridicul_v though_o it_o be_v nothing_o but_o what_o they_o do_v to_o the_o church_n of_o rome_n and_o there_o call_v it_o true_o represent_v but_o this_o i_o shall_v more_o clear_o evince_v afterward_o when_o i_o have_v examine_v some_o other_o part_n of_o the_o answer_n where_o i_o shall_v have_v occasion_n of_o play_v he_o the_o same_o tune_n over_o again_o a_o little_a more_o distinct_o without_o any_o ridicul_v but_o in_o very_o good_a earnest_n but_o first_o i_o must_v consider_v how_o he_o receive_v the_o courtesy_n i_o do_v he_o in_o my_o last_o reply_n i_o must_v confess_v i_o can_v not_o but_o be_v concern_v to_o see_v my_o answerer_n turn_v and_o wind_v it_o first_o through_o tedious_a ten_o sheet_n and_o soon_o after_o through_o other_o nine_o and_o all_o to_o prove_v that_o the_o word_n misrepresent_v in_o the_o title_n of_o my_o book_n be_v not_o to_o be_v take_v in_o its_o proper_a sense_n this_o to_o i_o be_v a_o object_n of_o compassion_n and_o therefore_o to_o save_v he_o any_o far_a sweat_n i_o think_v fit_a to_o yield_v to_o his_o pretension_n and_o give_v into_o his_o hand_n the_o full_a grasp_n of_o all_o that_o he_o have_v just_a before_o so_o earnest_o contend_v for_o and_o see_v now_o how_o ill_o use_v he_o make_v of_o this_o favour_n for_o have_v so_o far_o comply_v with_o he_o that_o the_o word_n misrepresent_v in_o the_o title_n of_o my_o book_n be_v not_o to_o be_v take_v in_o its_o strict_a and_o proper_a sense_n he_o will_v now_o willing_o impose_v upon_o his_o reader_n and_o i_o and_o persuade_v the_o world_n as_o if_o i_o own_o the_o protestant_n not_o to_o charge_v false_o any_o doctrine_n or_o practice_n on_o the_o church_n of_o rome_n which_o she_o disow_v and_o that_o they_o do_v not_o teach_v their_o flock_n that_o the_o church_n of_o rome_n believe_v or_o practice_n otherwise_o than_o she_o do_v this_o 6._o say_v he_o at_o last_o if_o i_o understand_v he_o he_o confess_v be_v not_o this_o stretch_v a_o courtesy_n with_o a_o witness_n and_o misrepresent_v the_o representer_n i_o yield_v to_o he_o indeed_o for_o peace_n sake_n that_o the_o title_n of_o a_o papist_n misrepresent_v be_v not_o to_o be_v take_v in_o its_o strict_a and_o proper_a sense_n as_o misrepresent_v signify_v only_a downright_o lie_v or_o false_o charge_v matter_n of_o fact_n the_o whole_a character_n be_v not_o of_o that_o nature_n and_o this_o with_o our_o answerer_n be_v the_o same_o as_o to_o confess_v that_o protestant_n do_v not_o charge_v the_o church_n of_o rome_n with_o any_o doctrine_n or_o practice_n which_o she_o do_v not_o own_o so_o that_o it_o seem_v because_o the_o character_n of_o a_o papist_n misrepresent_v be_v not_o whole_o make_v up_o of_o matter_n of_o doctrine_n and_o practice_n false_o charge_v upon_o the_o papist_n therefore_o as_o our_o answerer_n will_v have_v it_o it_o contain_v nothing_o at_o all_o wrongful_o charge_v upon_o they_o and_o protestant_n do_v not_o in_o any_o thing_n misrepresent_v the_o church_n of_o rome_n 5._o and_o this_o he_o will_v have_v i_o plain_o confess_v but_o i_o must_v beg_v his_o pardon_n for_o this_o i_o do_v not_o see_v he_o have_v make_v so_o good_a use_n of_o the_o last_o favour_n i_o do_v he_o as_o to_o accommodate_v away_o my_o sense_n and_o reason_n to_o do_v he_o another_o no_o transubstantiation_n be_v not_o half_a so_o disagreeable_a to_o protestant-sense_n as_o this_o be_v to_o i_o i_o can_v as_o easy_o confess_v that_o protestant_n do_v not_o at_o all_o write_n or_o preach_v against_o papist_n as_o that_o they_o do_v not_o misrepresent_v they_o and_o for_o the_o truth_n of_o this_o cause_n i_o dare_v stand_v to_o the_o verdict_n even_o of_o a_o protestant_a jury_n i_o will_v give_v the_o answerer_n choice-room_n enough_o let_v he_o pick_v out_o of_o all_o england_n twelve_o such_o man_n who_o understand_v the_o belief_n and_o doctrine_n of_o papist_n all_o good_a man_n and_o true_a and_o if_o they_o shall_v upon_o examination_n give_v in_o that_o they_o know_v all_o to_o be_v true_a which_o they_o have_v hear_v from_o protestant_a pulpit_n and_o book_n concern_v the_o papist_n i_o will_v then_o yield_v up_o the_o cause_n and_o sit_v down_o content_v with_o the_o brand_n of_o a_o misrepresenter_n nay_o i_o dare_v put_v it_o to_o a_o far_a issue_n if_o they_o do_v not_o own_o they_o have_v hear_v and_o read_v several_a thing_n charge_v upon_o the_o papist_n which_o they_o know_v to_o be_v false_a i_o will_v submit_v to_o the_o answerer_n and_o be_v oblige_v never_o more_o to_o disturb_v he_o with_o the_o talk_n of_o misrepresent_v but_o before_o we_o advance_v too_o far_o in_o this_o matter_n let_v we_o see_v first_o how_o it_o stand_v with_o the_o character_n of_o a_o papist_n
