circulate_v at_o home_n in_o such_o englishman_n hand_n who_o may_v buy_v the_o land_n that_o be_v to_o be_v sell_v without_o naturalise_v stranger_n to_o our_o author_n question_n what_o it_o be_v that_o have_v bring_v we_o to_o this_o condition_n that_o land_a man_n be_v necessitate_v to_o sell_v and_o that_o none_o be_v leave_v able_a to_o buy_v except_o foreigner_n be_v naturalize_v it_o may_v be_v answer_v in_o short_a that_o the_o base_a surrender_n or_o rather_o betray_v of_o our_o civil_a and_o religious_a liberty_n in_o the_o late_a reign_n by_o those_o of_o his_o party_n bring_v we_o to_o a_o necessity_n of_o invite_v over_o our_o present_a sovereign_n and_o join_v he_o with_o our_o arm_n to_o recover_v what_o we_o have_v so_o lose_v and_o the_o treachery_n of_o those_o of_o his_o party_n who_o his_o majesty_n have_v be_v force_v to_o employ_v or_o the_o curse_n of_o heaven_n upon_o such_o instrument_n have_v many_o time_n break_v his_o measure_n prolong_v the_o war_n increase_v our_o tax_n and_o ruine_v our_o trade_n but_o that_o none_o be_v leave_v able_a to_o buy_v except_o foreigner_n be_v naturalize_v be_v i_o suppose_v what_o no_o body_n ever_o say_v there_o may_v be_v and_o be_v many_o who_o be_v able_a to_o buy_v that_o be_v not_o willing_a so_o long_o as_o they_o see_v the_o government_n liable_a to_o the_o treachery_n of_o such_o man_n as_o himself_o who_o will_v enhance_v the_o whole_a administration_n of_o affair_n into_o their_o own_o hand_n and_o not_o only_o exclude_v foreigner_n but_o their_o own_o native_a brethren_n and_o a_o hundred_o time_n better_a englishman_n than_o themselves_o because_o their_o conscience_n will_v not_o suffer_v they_o to_o take_v the_o sacrament_n for_o the_o obtain_n of_o a_o place_n or_o commission_n which_o they_o think_v contrary_a to_o our_o saviour_n design_n and_o institution_n or_o be_v not_o so_o superlative_o proud_a as_o to_o pretend_v to_o a_o posture_n of_o great_a humility_n in_o receive_v the_o same_o than_o be_v practise_v by_o the_o holy_a apostle_n and_o not_o only_o for_o this_o reason_n but_o also_o because_o the_o faction_n represent_v the_o honest_a and_o moderate_a churchman_n as_o not_o fit_a to_o be_v employ_v put_v they_o almost_o in_o the_o same_o category_n with_o dissenter_n and_o therefore_o i_o will_v very_o fain_o know_v of_o our_o author_n what_o encouragement_n either_o of_o those_o sort_n of_o man_n have_v to_o lay_v out_o their_o money_n in_o buy_v land_n when_o they_o must_v bear_v equal_a burden_n with_o other_o to_o support_v the_o government_n while_o their_o enemy_n enjoy_v all_o the_o profitable_a employment_n under_o it_o and_o only_o watch_v for_o a_o opportunity_n not_o only_o to_o deprive_v they_o of_o their_o estate_n as_o in_o the_o day_n of_o yore_o but_o of_o their_o life_n and_o all_o the_o comfort_n of_o they_o for_o we_o see_v so_o little_a of_o the_o effect_n of_o the_o faction_n repentance_n for_o their_o have_v former_o persecute_v their_o brethren_n that_o on_o the_o contrary_a in_o be_v evident_a that_o they_o be_v ready_a to_o burst_v with_o their_o venom_n which_o be_v now_o keep_v in_o by_o the_o restraint_n of_o law_n and_o as_o to_o the_o naturalise_v of_o foreigner_n though_o we_o do_v say_v that_o none_o be_v leave_v able_a to_o buy_v except_o that_o be_v grant_v yet_o such_o a_o law_n will_v very_o much_o conduce_v to_o procure_v chapman_n for_o there_o be_v not_o only_o some_o french_a protestant_n who_o be_v able_a to_o purchase_v but_o many_o rich_a merchant_n and_o other_o in_o

their_o religion_n under_o a_o government_n which_o they_o love_v and_o in_o a_o country_n where_o they_o may_v live_v without_o any_o fear_n either_o from_o the_o french_a king_n or_o any_o other_o oppressor_n and_o if_o this_o shall_v be_v the_o case_n as_o it_o probable_o will_v consider_v the_o horrible_a devastation_n of_o the_o palatinat_a the_o continual_a danger_n of_o other_o protestant_n upon_o the_o rhine_n and_o elsewhere_o and_o the_o little_a ground_n that_o there_o be_v to_o be_v purchase_v in_o holland_n where_o i_o pray_v will_v be_v england_n disadvantage_n by_o a_o act_n of_o naturalisation_n and_o will_v it_o not_o rather_o be_v infinite_o to_o her_o advantage_n to_o have_v their_o estate_n spend_v here_o upon_o she_o own_o product_n and_o her_o strength_n increase_v by_o such_o a_o considerable_a accession_n of_o zealous_a protestant_n who_o know_v the_o principle_n and_o practice_n of_o the_o papist_n so_o well_o that_o they_o will_v be_v in_o no_o hazard_n according_a to_o the_o practice_n of_o too_o too_o many_o of_o our_o english_a protestant_n either_o of_o espouse_v the_o interest_n of_o lewis_n fourteen_o the_o late_a king_n and_o his_o pretend_a son_n or_o of_o undermine_v the_o government_n of_o their_o present_a majesty_n but_o this_o our_o author_n and_o his_o party_n know_v too_o well_o and_o that_o make_v they_o redouble_v their_o clamour_n against_o the_o act_n of_o naturalisation_n though_o under_o the_o specious_a pretence_n of_o a_o exuberant_a zeal_n for_o our_o english_a liberty_n in_o the_o next_o part_n of_o the_o paragraph_n the_o gentleman_n charge_v the_o house_n with_o ruine_v themselves_o and_o their_o posterity_n by_o tax_n as_o if_o no_o other_o of_o the_o member_n have_v either_o estate_n to_o

oblige_v to_o this_o gentleman_n for_o his_o compliment_n then_o he_o tell_v we_o that_o our_o forefather_n will_v not_o expend_v the_o money_n of_o the_o kingdom_n upon_o such_o ally_n as_o we_o who_o be_v not_o in_o our_o interest_n and_o will_v spare_v we_o none_o of_o their_o man_n for_o our_o pay_n without_o great_a pension_n likewise_o for_o themselves_o here_o our_o author_n run_v

a_o very_a strange_a kind_n of_o ally_n indeed_o i_o think_v by_o the_o gentleman_n leave_n that_o in_o such_o a_o cafe_z as_o this_o he_o that_o be_v not_o against_o we_o be_v for_o we_o and_o it_o

that_o be_v that_o those_o roman_n who_o he_o propose_v to_o we_o as_o a_o pattern_n do_v not_o only_o allow_v stranger_n such_o as_o st._n paul_n who_o be_v a_o jew_n to_o have_v a_o share_n of_o

out_o of_o his_o own_o mouth_n and_o give_v a_o very_a good_a argument_n for_o naturalise_v of_o foreign_a protestant_n and_o hence_o we_o perceive_v the_o kindness_n of_o honest_a dame_n nature_n
