insinuate_v as_o if_o the_o papist_n also_o promote_v the_o late_a persecution_n against_o dissenter_n and_o yet_o we_o remember_v well_o who_o preach_v up_o persecution_n before_o the_o lord_n major_a of_o this_o city_n and_o who_o also_o be_v make_v a_o dean_n but_o be_v it_o because_o he_o design_v popery_n moreover_o it_o be_v well_o know_v that_o a_o certain_a bishop_n in_o the_o world_n if_o one_o under_o a_o suspension_n still_o bear_v that_o name_n who_o procure_v at_o least_o 200_o l._n to_o encourage_v a_o church_n of_o england_n doctor_n to_o persecute_v the_o nonconformist_n and_o be_v this_o for_o the_o sake_n of_o popery_n in_o a_o word_n we_o give_v the_o challenge_n to_o any_o man_n to_o prove_v that_o the_o papist_n do_v at_o any_o time_n give_v one_o farthing_n to_o a_o dissent_v minister_n or_o that_o the_o dissenter_n do_v receive_v from_o the_o government_n the_o forty_o part_n that_o church_n of_o england_n minister_n have_v receive_v if_o any_o church_n of_o england_n man_n have_v be_v sensible_a of_o the_o misery_n they_o have_v by_o their_o severe_a law_n expose_v the_o dissenter_n unto_o and_o in_o compassion_n have_v give_v some_o relief_n the_o dissenter_n no_o doubt_n will_v thankful_o acknowledge_v it_o but_o then_o they_o must_v add_v that_o unless_o the_o church_n of_o england_n man_n must_v be_v esteem_v papist_n because_o of_o the_o alliance_n there_o be_v between_o their_o principle_n this_o be_v not_o a_o receive_a money_n from_o papist_n but_o let_v the_o truth_n be_v bring_v to_o light_n and_o let_v the_o church_n of_o england_n charity_n to_o dissent_v minister_n be_v discover_v and_o it_o will_v appear_v that_o it_o be_v not_o to_o be_v compare_v with_o what_o the_o church_n of_o england_n have_v take_v from_o from_o they_o moreover_o it_o be_v well_o know_v that_o when_o some_o gentleman_n on_o their_o die_a red_n to_o express_v their_o affection_n to_o dissent_v minister_n have_v give_v

the_o people_n who_o receive_v their_o address_n from_o a_o priest_n and_o to_o the_o priest_n that_o make_v make_v they_o if_o the_o gentleman_n can_v clear_v up_o these_o point_n as_o i_o presume_v he_o can_v how_o specious_a soever_o his_o pretence_n may_v be_v his_o untruth_n will_v much_o advantage_n the_o church_n of_o england_n nor_o will_v that_o church_n have_v much_o cause_n to_o glory_n in_o such_o a_o advocate_n who_o do_v not_o only_o charge_v she_o for_o persecute_v the_o dissenter_n but_o make_v no_o other_o plea_n but_o what_o lean_v on_o the_o ●eeblest_a foundation_n even_o
