A47149	Gross error and hypocrisie detected in George Whitehead and some of his brethern as doth appear from the disingenuous and hypocritical answer he and some others have given to some queries sent to the last Yearly Meeting of the people call'd Quakers, in the third month, 1695, by comparing the said answer with the printed books of the said George Whitehead, William Pemn, and John Whitehead, leading men in the said Meeting, wherein the great inconistency and contradiction of their present late answer to the express words and sentiments of their printed books is discovered : with a further account of their vile and pernicious errours / by George Keith.

to_o what_o they_o former_o print_v yet_o they_o be_v not_o so_o sincere_a as_o to_o own_v it_o and_o to_o retract_v in_o public_a their_o error_n expose_v in_o public_a even_o lest_o such_o

retract_v or_o correct_v what_o they_o have_v former_o print_v and_o be_v on_o public_a record_n will_v seem_v so_o great_o to_o reflect_v on_o they_o and_o their_o high_a pretence_n that_o they_o will_v rather_o seek_v to_o uphold_v their_o honour_n and_o repute_v among_o their_o follower_n than_o honour_n god_n or_o rescue_v soul_n out_o of_o the_o snare_n they_o have_v bring_v they_o into_o by_o a_o free_a acknowledgement_n and_o retraction_n but_o until_o they_o so_o do_v they_o can_v never_o have_v any_o true_a character_n among_o sincere_a intelligent_a person_n who_o be_v acquaint_v
