overshoot_v myself_o as_o report_n be_v give_v out_o a_o revocation_n in_o word_n only_o will_v be_v too_o little_a to_o make_v amends_o for_o i_o will_v acknowledge_v myself_o to_o be_v worthy_a of_o

may_v induce_v wiseman_n to_o believe_v that_o he_o that_o will_v undertake_v to_o inveigh_v against_o popery_n either_o by_o word_n or_o writing_n shall_v want_v no_o enemy_n in_o ireland_n that_o

to_o crack_v his_o credit_n among_o the_o rest_n of_o those_o untruth_n that_o be_v object_v against_o i_o one_o be_v how_o i_o shall_v affirm_v in_o my_o book_n that_o there_o be_v neither_o

this_o but_o to_o turn_v they_o to_o my_o book_n that_o they_o have_v so_o slander_v and_o belie_v yet_o for_o better_a satisfaction_n i_o say_v it_o be_v truth_n that_o i_o have_v speak_v of_o the_o manner_n and_o custom_n that_o be_v use_v among_o the_o irish_a in_o some_o part_n of_o the_o country_n that_o be_v not_o yet_o so_o conform_v from_o there_o uncivil_a demeaner_n nor_o so_o perfect_v in_o the_o compliment_n of_o humanity_n but_o that_o they_o retain_v still_o their_o accustom_a uncleanelines_n now_o if_o i_o shall_v say_v that_o in_o some_o part_n of_o england_n itself_o there_o be_v many_o people_n that_o be_v both_o rude_a ignorant_a and_o very_o clownish_a as_o it_o be_v well_o enough_o know_v there_o be_v so_o indeed_o can_v this_o be_v a_o disparagement_n to_o the_o whole_a realm_n but_o they_o will_v say_v i_o have_v make_v no_o exception_n among_o the_o irish_a but_o have_v number_v they_o all_o to_o be_v in_o one_o predicament_n let_v i_o entreat_v they_o but_o to_o overlook_v my_o epistle_n to_o the_o reader_n in_o that_o book_n where_o they_o shall_v find_v these_o word_n do_v not_o think_v i_o to_o be_v so_o general_a but_o that_o i_o do_v make_v a_o great_a differnce_n between_o those_o that_o be_v rude_a uncivile_a unreverent_a uncleanely_a and_o untaught_a and_o those_o other_o again_o that_o be_v mild_a modest_a kind_a courteous_a and_o that_o be_v every_o way_n endue_v with_o wit_n reason_n and_o understanding_n and_o i_o do_v make_v the_o like_a exception_n between_o those_o that_o be_v irreligious_a superstitious_a idolatrous_a seditious_a rebellious_a that_o do_v retain_v jesuit_n seminary_n and_o other_o traitorous_a priest_n then_o of_o those_o that_o contrariwise_o be_v professor_n of_o the_o gospel_n that_o do_v embrace_v the_o holy_a scripture_n and_o do_v indevoure_v themselves_o in_o the_o service_n of_o god_n and_o in_o obedience_n to_o their_o prince_n i_o hope_v i_o may_v revoke_v this_o without_o any_o disgrace_n i_o have_v be_v charge_v with_o a_o lie_n and_o i_o renounce_v it_o a_o second_o objection_n be_v that_o i_o have_v tax_v the_o irish_a in_o general_a to_o be_v more_o savage_a and_o

page_n i_o say_v that_o those_o of_o the_o irish_a that_o have_v reduce_v themselves_o to_o civility_n be_v it_o not_o for_o their_o religion_n be_v otherwise_o of_o very_o good_a conversation_n and_o aswell_o in_o their_o manner_n as_o in_o the_o decency_n of_o their_o apparel_n they_o be_v very_o modest_a and_o comely_a and_o in_o the_o 17._o page_n although_o the_o vulgar_a sort_n through_o their_o dull_a wit_n &_o their_o brutish_a education_n can_v not_o conceive_v what_o be_v profitable_a for_o themselves_o and_o good_a for_o their_o country_n yet_o there_o be_v some_o other_o who_o thought_n and_o mind_n be_v enrich_v with_o knowledge_n and_o understanding_n that_o have_v do_v good_a in_o the_o country_n and_o who_o example_n hereafter_o may_v give_v light_n to_o many_o other_o for_o i_o think_v that_o if_o these_o people_n do_v once_o understand_v the_o preciousnes_n of_o virtue_n they_o will_v far_o exceed_v we_o notwithstanding_o our_o long_a experience_n in_o the_o sovereignty_n of_o virtue_n you_o may_v see_v now_o i_o have_v no_o such_o conceit_n against_o the_o irish_a in_o general_a as_o they_o have_v fable_v but_o that_o i_o think_v there_o be_v good_a among_o the_o bad_a and_o bad_a among_o the_o good_a i_o may_v therefore_o have_v revoke_v this_o accusation_n as_o he_o that_o revoke_v a_o long_o rely_v letter_n but_o with_o one_o word_n ment●ris_n yet_o i_o will_v not_o do_v so_o but_o i_o will_v

that_o can_v be_v detect_v nor_o their_o fidelity_n and_o trust_n to_o their_o prince_n by_o any_o mean_v impeach_v and_o in_o the_o 111._o page_n i_o know_v among_o the_o nobility_n of_o ireland_n there_o have_v be_v and_o there_o be_v still_o many_o honourable_a personage_n and_o so_o there_o be_v of_o many_o other_o gentleman_n that_o without_o all_o doubt_n be_v as_o forward_o as_o ready_a and_o as_o willing_a to_o serve_v their_o prince_n as_o any_o other_o whosoever_o and_o yet_o again_o in_o the_o 54._o page_n of_o my_o book_n i_o have_v often_o say_v that_o there_o be_v many_o good_a people_n in_o dubline_n and_o so_o through_o all_o the_o part_n of_o ireland_n beside_o man_n of_o all_o sort_n of_o all_o profession_n and_o of_o all_o degree_n that_o be_v not_o to_o be_v detect_v what_o have_v i_o omit_v to_o commend_v in_o the_o irish_a i_o mean_v of_o those_o that_o be_v worthy_a of_o any_o commendation_n indeed_o but_o i_o have_v do_v they_o right_n i_o have_v give_v they_o their_o due_n i_o have_v not_o forget_v those_o that_o be_v few_o in_o number_n that_o be_v godly_a affect_v to_o religion_n as_o in_o the_o page_n 91._o god_n be_v thank_v ireland_n be_v never_o so_o destitute_a but_o there_o have_v be_v a_o number_n of_o good_a people_n native_n of_o that_o country_n that_o have_v zealous_o and_o religious_o profess_v the_o gospel_n and_o therefore_o those_o that_o can_v spy_v out_o the_o discommendation_n i_o have_v give_v of_o those_o that_o be_v bad_a and_o can_v not_o see_v the_o praise_n i_o have_v give_v to_o those_o that_o be_v good_a it_o shall_v seem_v they_o be_v not_o perfect_v sight_v but_o i_o will_v i_o can_v entreat_v they_o yet_o to_o put_v on_o their_o spectacle_n and_o to_o look_v into_o diverse_a part_n of_o my_o book_n that_o do_v plead_v my_o excuse_n they_o shall_v find_v in_o the_o 14._o page_n this_o honest_a protestation_n i_o do_v know_v never_o a_o man_n in_o ireland_n that_o i_o do_v hate_n or_o that_o i_o do_v wish_v any_o harm_n unto_o and_o therefore_o if_o i_o happen_v to_o glance_v at_o the_o abuse_n of_o those_o that_o be_v all_o let_v not_o those_o that_o be_v good_a think_v themselves_o thereby_o to_o be_v detect_v or_o so_o much_o as_o touch_v they_o shall_v find_v again_o in_o my_o epistle_n to_o the_o reader_n i_o will_v not_o have_v it_o think_v that_o i_o make_v any_o difference_n between_o the_o english_a &_o the_o irish_a in_o respect_n of_o their_o birth_n for_o i_o know_v there_o be_v as_o worthy_a man_n in_o ireland_n as_o in_o england_n and_o in_o the_o last_o leaf_n of_o the_o book_n again_o for_o a_o farewell_n i_o hope_v there_o be_v no_o man_n that_o will_v accuse_v i_o of_o partiality_n to_o say_v i_o have_v more_o forbear_v to_o speak_v against_o the_o folly_n of_o the_o english_a then_o against_o the_o manner_n and_o custom_n of_o the_o irish_a or_o that_o i_o do_v otherwise_o distinguish_v between_o they_o but_o value_v they_o both_o a_o like_a the_o good_a to_o the_o good_a and_o the_o bad_a to_o the_o bad_a i_o know_v not_o yet_o therefore_o what_o revocation_n i_o shall_v make_v but_o to_o say_v that_o either_o i_o have_v be_v wonderful_o mistake_v or_o shameful_o belie_v i_o may_v yet_o speak_v of_o other_o accusation_n that_o have_v be_v greivous_o enforce_v against_o i_o how_o i_o have_v mock_v at_o their_o irish_a custom_n scoff_v at_o their_o holy_a well_n deride_v their_o irish_a saint_n and_o one_o in_o sober_a sadness_n take_v it_o very_o greivous_o that_o i_o have_v term_v their_o friar_n their_o jesuit_n &_o their_o priest_n to_o be_v the_o pope_n vermin_n i_o warrant_v you_o they_o that_o can_v spy_v i_o out_o these_o fault_n they_o be_v not_o blind_a they_o be_v none_o of_o these_o heretic_n that_o will_v say_v the_o pater_fw-la noster_fw-la in_o english_a but_o they_o say_v open_a confession_n must_v have_v open_a shame_n peccavi_fw-la i_o have_v sin_v and_o here_o i_o do_v make_v open_a revocation_n for_o i_o revoke_v well_n saint_n friar_n jesuit_n priest_n pope_n devil_n and_o all_o and_o i_o will_v all_o that_o know_v i_o in_o ireland_n will_v take_v example_n by_o i_o and_o do_v the_o like_a thus_o much_o for_o ireland_n in_o general_a that_o they_o say_v i_o have_v so_o detect_v in_o my_o book_n &_o now_o for_o dubline_n in_o particular_a that_o i_o hope_v i_o shall_v aswell_o satisfy_v and_o give_v content_a i_o have_v write_v 3_o several_a chapter_n the_o 15._o the_o 16._o and_o the_o 17._o that_o do_v particular_o concern_v the_o cytty_n of_o dubline_n the_o head_n of_o the_o 15._o chap_n a_o true_a description_n both_o of_o the_o cytty_n and_o cittyzen_n of_o dubline_n the_o head_n of_o the_o 16._o of_o some_o defect_n in_o the_o government_n of_o

deal_n he_o paint_v it_o out_o more_o gorgeous_o then_o true_o but_o my_o description_n in_o these_o word_n follow_v to_o speak_v the_o truth_n of_o dublin_n as_o it_o deserve_v first_o the_o town_n itself_o be_v convenient_a enough_o pleasant_o seat_v aswell_o for_o the_o serenity_n of_o the_o air_n as_o for_o the_o please_a walk_n that_o be_v round_o about_o the_o city_n on_o every_o side_n and_o this_o commendation_n i_o think_v be_v more_o proper_o true_a than_o that_o sumptuous_a description_n that_o master_n stanihurst_n have_v make_v of_o it_o now_o how_o i_o be_o conceit_v towards_o the_o citizen_n themselves_o let_v i_o own_o line_n witness_v which_o do_v like_o wise_n follow_v in_o these_o word_n the_o citizen_n themselves_o be_v wonderful_o reform_v in_o manner_n in_o civility_n in_o courtesy_n both_o themselves_o and_o their_o wife_n modest_a and_o decent_a in_o their_o apparel_n and_o they_o be_v tractable_a enough_o in_o any_o thing_n religion_n only_o except_v and_o the_o very_a latter_a word_n in_o the_o self_n same_o chapter_n be_v these_o dubline_n be_v not_o yet_o so_o destitute_a but_o that_o there_o be_v some_o aswell_o learned_a divine_n as_o other_o grave_n and_o godly_a citizen_n and_o townsman_n that_o god_n have_v bless_v with_o the_o light_n of_o his_o word_n that_o do_v daily_o indevoure_v themselves_o to_o give_v good_a
