A52875	The sentiments of N.N. (a loyal subject of the Roman Catholick communion) touching the Roman consistorie's designs and practices, by and with their correspondents here, (viz. the Jesuits, monks and friers) to the prejudice of this nation, and the future involving it in misery and trouble, under the (feigned) pretence of advancing Catholick religion : together with some general remedies or expedients for preventing thereof, expresses in certain propositions, and humbly submitted to the censure of those whose prudence, or authority inables them better to judge of things.

of_o religion_n proposition_n xlviii_o i_o mean_v only_o to_o insist_v upon_o such_o matter_n as_o relate_v to_o the_o church_n and_o state_n of_o england_n otherwise_o i_o can_v willing_o enough_o
