notwithstanding_o all_o which_o impudent_a disgrace_n there_o remain_v this_o one_o comfort_n to_o the_o church_n of_o england_n that_o the_o same_o man_n who_o now_o vilify_v she_o so_o base_o have_v once_o as_o mean_a thought_n of_o the_o godhead_n of_o her_o bless_a founder_n himself_o but_o it_o be_v easy_a to_o conjecture_v at_o the_o cause_n of_o this_o his_o harsh_a usage_n of_o our_o church_n he_o have_v but_o late_o apostatise_v from_o the_o reform_a religion_n in_o france_n he_o be_v but_o just_a enter_v into_o the_o romish_a communion_n and_o he_o suspect_v that_o there_o may_v be_v some_o doubt_n still_o remain_v on_o man_n mind_n of_o the_o reality_n of_o his_o conversion_n which_o may_v turn_v to_o the_o prejudice_n not_o only_o of_o his_o spiritual_a but_o of_o his_o temporal_a estate_n he_o have_v give_v himself_o out_o for_o a_o great_a philosopher_n and_o he_o understand_v well_o enough_o that_o few_o philosopher_n be_v think_v to_o alter_v their_o mind_n that_o have_v once_o be_v protestant_n he_o be_v therefore_o resolve_v to_o give_v a_o unquestionable_a proof_n of_o his_o establishment_n in_o the_o faith_n by_o revile_v the_o church_n of_o england_n and_o in_o perform_v this_o i_o confess_v sir_n he_o have_v counterfeit_v the_o zealot_n very_o well_o he_o have_v prosecute_v we_o with_o all_o the_o violence_n and_o bigotry_n which_o common_o accompany_v new_a convert_v but_o yet_o i_o believe_v this_o will_n hardly_o do_v his_o business_n even_o in_o this_o very_a book_n he_o give_v evidence_n enough_o that_o calvinism_n and_o heresy_n be_v not_o whole_o root_v out_o of_o his_o heart_n he_o gross_o abuse_v the_o most_o devote_a child_n of_o the_o church_n of_o rome_n the_o english_a roman_a catholic_n he_o complain_v of_o they_o 64._o that_o they_o have_v no_o mind_n to_o disturb_v the_o peace_n of_o their_o country_n tomard_v the_o restoration_n of_o their_o religion_n which_o be_v indeed_o speak_v to_o their_o honour_n though_o he_o intend_v it_o to_o their_o shame_n he_o say_v 64._o that_o they_o be_v not_o so_o zealous_a in_o their_o way_n as_o foreign_a papist_n the_o quite_o contrary_a to_o which_o be_v true_a he_o make_v 64._o as_o if_o they_o never_o see_v the_o true_a mass_n perform_v he_o affirm_v 64._o that_o they_o be_v all_o bear_v in_o servitude_n and_o debase_v so_o many_o ancient_n rich_a and_o honourable_a family_n to_o the_o condition_n and_o the_o mind_n of_o slave_n in_o all_o these_o speech_n he_o do_v not_o express_v any_o certain_a mark_n of_o a_o true_a proselyte_n but_o above_o all_o he_o have_v set_v down_o such_o a_o determination_n of_o his_o faith_n that_o if_o he_o have_v make_v it_o in_o italy_n or_o spain_n he_o have_v undoubted_o fall_v into_o the_o inquisition_n he_o bold_o pronounce_v that_o transubstantiation_n purgatory_n the_o merit_n of_o work_n 48._o invocation_n of_o saint_n the_o supremacy_n of_o the_o bishop_n of_o rome_n the_o authority_n of_o council_n and_o the_o infallibility_n of_o the_o pope_n be_v none_o of_o they_o fundamental_a doctrine_n what_o great_a apology_n can_v be_v make_v for_o the_o church_n of_o england_n which_o he_o have_v so_o much_o defame_v see_v these_o be_v the_o only_a shameful_a cause_n for_o which_o we_o dissent_v from_o rome_n but_o i_o leave_v he_o to_o be_v correct_v by_o the_o pope_n sentence_n for_o these_o heresy_n which_o perhaps_o the_o holy_a father_n have_v reason_n to_o think_v do_v more_o shake_v the_o holy_a chair_n than_o the_o five_o point_n of_o jansenius_n that_o he_o

and_o here_o sir_n i_o be_v at_o first_o a_o little_a at_o a_o stand_v how_o to_o deal_v with_o he_o but_o i_o have_v hear_v of_o the_o magnanimous_a resolution_n of_o the_o late_a duke_n of_o

for_o a_o more_o elaborate_a volume_n than_o a_o single_a letter_n and_o for_o a_o far_o more_o elegant_a pen_n then_o i_o i_o will_v only_o here_o show_v the_o vanity_n of_o our_o historiographer_n groundless_a suggestion_n and_o as_o a_o introduction_n to_o what_o he_o say_v concern_v the_o political_a condition_n of_o this_o nation_n i_o will_v first_o observe_v how_o he_o deal_v with_o some_o other_o of_o the_o chief_n crown_v head_n in_o europe_n you_o will_v perhaps_o sir_n be_v very_o hardly_o induce_v to_o believe_v that_o he_o can_v be_v guilty_a of_o disrespect_n to_o monarchy_n or_o

a_o race_n of_o king_n to_o commend_v for_o he_o here_o speak_v very_o zealous_o in_o praise_n of_o the_o most_o virtuous_a 118._o and_o most_o religious_a king_n of_o china_n this_o sir_n i_o can_v but_o applaud_v in_o he_o and_o to_o show_v how_o much_o this_o one_o testimony_n of_o his_o good_a manner_n have_v wrought_v with_o i_o i_o will_v not_o be_v harsh_a upon_o he_o in_o this_o place_n i_o will_v not_o call_v in_o question_n the_o credit_n of_o his_o intelligence_n from_o the_o far_a east_n which_o you_o see_v be_v so_o false_a about_o a_o country_n that_o lie_v only_o seven_o

118._o i_o will_v grant_v that_o the_o king_n of_o china_n have_v be_v great_a mender_n of_o bridge_n and_o planter_n of_o orchard_n but_o i_o will_v only_o now_o soft_o put_v he_o in_o mind_n that_o

what_o passion_n may_v here_o be_v raise_v in_o appeal_n to_o all_o mankind_n and_o in_o aggravate_v the_o common_a misery_n of_o all_o great_a commander_n of_o army_n if_o it_o shall_v be_v permit_v
