such_o and_o whatever_o be_v of_o such_o a_o consequence_n as_o these_o thing_n be_v use_v still_o to_o be_v no_o less_o public_a in_o their_o respective_a place_n than_o be_v the_o church_n and_o

much_o when_o i_o be_v at_o rome_n though_o nothing_o else_o have_v do_v it_o wherefore_o though_o the_o credit_n of_o traveller_n be_v sometime_o wont_a not_o to_o be_v too_o much_o lean_v upon_o yet_o it_o must_v have_v sink_v to_o a_o very_a low_a character_n if_o what_o they_o say_v shall_v be_v disbelieved_a mere_o because_o they_o say_v it_o and_o my_o assertion_n neither_o need_v to_o

plot_v forget_v not_o to_o speak_v of_o so_o many_o horrid_a massacy_n as_o the_o pope_n finger_n be_v not_o clean_o of_o and_o we_o be_v not_o ignorant_a how_o the_o present_a pope_n have_v resent_v

up_o upon_o such_o a_o downright_a brazen_a face_n as_o the_o denial_n of_o the_o matter_n of_o fact_n will_v amount_v to_o i_o shall_v now_o only_o as_o humble_o as_o earnest_o recommend_v to_o all_o of_o the_o church_n of_o rome_n that_o be_v especial_o person_n of_o any_o quality_n for_o perhaps_o their_o clergy_n will_v think_v themselves_o oblige_v by_o what_o i_o have_v advance_v to_o prove_v the_o pope_n infallible_a according_a to_o the_o principle_n of_o the_o popish_a religion_n serious_o to_o consider_v upon_o what_o bottom_n they_o have_v settle_v themselves_o i_o be_o very_o much_o persuade_v that_o many_o of_o they_o have_v natural_o so_o much_o honour_n and_o such_o a_o generous_a sense_n of_o thing_n that_o they_o will_v not_o like_v their_o religion_n the_o better_a that_o it_o oblige_v they_o to_o such_o rebellious_a such_o destructive_a principle_n and_o unless_o they_o be_v atheist_n which_o god_n forbid_v i_o shall_v think_v any_o of_o they_o be_v to_o practice_n too_o consonant_a unto_o these_o if_o they_o will_v but_o impartial_o lay_v to_o heart_n what_o i_o have_v say_v i_o doubt_v not_o but_o they_o will_v find_v that_o their_o pope_n be_v as_o absolute_a and_o illimited_a a_o monarch_n in_o religion_n as_o ever_o be_v any_o grand_a signior_n in_o turkey_n and_o i_o have_v much_o better_a thought_n of_o they_o than_o to_o imagine_v that_o they_o look_v upon_o themselves_o as_o mere_a arbitrary_a slave_n to_o the_o pope_n as_o to_o their_o religion_n but_o the_o great_a mischief_n of_o most_o man_n error_n proceed_v from_o their_o not_o ponder_v sufficient_o what_o consequence_n the_o general_a and_o confuse_a principle_n they_o entertain_v be_v original_o the_o source_n of_o but_o whatever_o papist_n have_v do_v or_o may_v do_v will_v to_o god_n that_o many_o who_o have_v call_v themselves_o protestant_n have_v not_o write_v too_o much_o and_o too_o frequent_o after_o their_o copy_n and_o will_v to_o god_n that_o none_o of_o these_o for_o the_o like_a principle_n can_v be_v charge_v for_o be_v the_o executioner_n of_o the_o martyrdom_n of_o this_o day_n and_o so_o have_v full_o discuss_v all_o that_o chief_o concern_v this_o famous_a text_n i_o think_v most_o suitable_a to_o be_v pitch_v upon_o on_o such_o a_o occasion_n my_o next_o work_n be_v to_o speak_v to_o the_o text_n of_o the_o day_n but_o first_o i_o must_v tell_v you_o that_o i_o doubt_v not_o but_o my_o discourse_n hitherto_o will_v by_o some_o be_v think_v to_o be_v like_o a_o quarterstaff_n that_o strike_v at_o both_o end_n and_o by_o other_o to_o be_v exact_a trim_v all_o out_o to_o wit_n as_o they_o stand_v who_o look_v upon_o it_o but_o that_o have_v ever_o be_v and_o ever_o will_v be_v the_o fate_n of_o all_o those_o truth_n that_o happen_v to_o be_v own_v first_o after_o they_o be_v prevail_v over_o by_o those_o error_n that_o be_v of_o the_o utmost_a contrary_a extreme_n and_o i_o thank_v god_n i_o have_v endeavour_v as_o much_o as_o i_o can_v to_o exercise_v myself_o as_o to_o all_o i_o have_v say_v in_o a_o conscience_n void_a of_o offence_n both_o towards_o god_n and_o towards_o all_o man_n neither_o have_v i_o suffer_v myself_o to_o fall_v under_o any_o bias_n or_o prejudice_n from_o the_o write_n of_o other_o man_n have_v only_o make_v use_n of_o the_o great_a doctor_n sherlock_n book_n of_o the_o case_n of_o resistance_n to_o the_o compile_v this_o discourse_n and_o never_o have_v in_o all_o my_o life_n read_v any_o of_o those_o author_n that_o be_v common_o say_v to_o be_v of_o the_o republican_n stamp_n so_o that_o the_o only_a guide_n i_o have_v follow_v be_v the_o holy_a scripture_n together_o with_o those_o suggestion_n of_o my_o own_o reason_n that_o need_v little_a or_o no_o pain_n to_o force_v they_o out_o all_o the_o favour_n then_o that_o i_o crave_v be_v that_o none_o will_v make_v any_o application_n of_o the_o least_o syllable_n i_o have_v speak_v but_o in_o so_o far_o as_o i_o have_v do_v so_o myself_o for_o i_o have_v utter_v absolute_a verity_n absolute_o without_o design_v to_o touch_v any_o of_o those_o person_n that_o may_v be_v concern_v in_o they_o but_o in_o as_o much_o as_o the_o tenor_n of_o my_o discourse_n do_v oblige_v i_o to_o it_o and_o if_o intention_n come_v to_o be_v quarrel_v i_o can_v see_v how_o other_o can_v better_v judge_n of_o i_o than_o myself_o and_o have_v thus_o a_o little_a obviate_v those_o calumny_n that_o none_o can_v promise_v he_o shall_v be_v secure_a from_o i_o proceed_v in_o my_o design_n but_o now_o a_o subject_a offer_n itself_o to_o i_o that_o require_v such_o equal_a and_o suitable_a advantage_n as_o i_o dare_v not_o presume_v to_o think_v i_o be_o sufficient_a for_o handle_v it_o with_o now_o i_o shall_v lay_v forth_o the_o perfection_n of_o a_o man_n that_o heaven_n have_v resolve_v shall_v be_v more_o than_o a_o king_n a_o martyr_n both_o for_o his_o religion_n and_o his_o country_n too_o now_o it_o lie_v upon_o i_o to_o expose_v the_o great_a villainy_n and_o wickedness_n as_o well_o in_o its_o formality_n as_o in_o its_o substance_n that_o ever_o the_o sun_n behold_v for_o its_o creator_n suffering_n make_v it_o shrink_v in_o its_o head_n and_o here_o it_o have_v also_o do_v it_o but_o that_o there_o be_v such_o a_o distinction_n to_o be_v make_v by_o it_o when_o not_o the_o god_n of_o nature_n but_o the_o best_a king_n in_o the_o world_n be_v butcher_v by_o the_o bloody_a hand_n of_o impious_a man_n or_o rather_o incarnate_a fury_n and_o therefore_o now_o i_o must_v draw_v a_o curtain_n over_o that_o which_o i_o have_v not_o skill_n enough_o to_o adorn_v with_o the_o lively_a with_o the_o most_o deserve_a colour_n and_o it_o be_v only_o eikon_v bazilikh_n that_o be_v most_o proper_a to_o
