A30022	A brief history of the rise, growth, and progress of Quakerism setting forth that the principles and practices of the Quakers are antichristian, antiscriptural, antimagistratical, blasphemous, and idolatrous from plain matter of fact, out of their most approved authors, &c. ... / by Francis Bugg, Senior.

this_o height_n it_o be_v now_o arrive_v at_o but_o when_o i_o come_v to_o view_v it_o and_o serious_o to_o consider_v the_o content_n of_o it_o as_o i_o find_v it_o in_o many_o thing_n very_o well_o

many_o well_o meaning_n and_o worthy_a gentleman_n to_o have_v a_o better_a esteem_n of_o they_o and_o their_o tenet_n than_o they_o deserve_v i_o find_v it_o very_o deficient_a viz._n in_o show_v

how_o they_o have_v unchurch_v all_o but_o themselves_o and_o thereupon_o it_o seem_v to_o i_o that_o the_o say_a history_n rather_o tend_v to_o strengthen_v they_o in_o their_o error_n then_o to_o
