A34950	A journey into the country being a dialogue between an English Protestant physitian and an English papist : wherein the proper state of the popish controversy is discoursed : with reference (only) to the government of England in church and state, in some answer to Peter Walsh, and pursuant to the directions of a person of honor.

that_o this_o notion_n of_o antiquity_n though_o of_o great_a veneration_n in_o itself_o yet_o have_v be_v often_o use_v to_o the_o disadvantage_n of_o truth_n and_o make_v a_o stale_a to_o
