A53949	The apostate Protestant a letter to a friend, occasioned by the late reprinting of a Jesuites book about succession to the crown of England, pretended to have been written by R. Doleman.

julian_n say_v to_o it_o be_v that_o it_o be_v impossible_a to_o write_v a_o history_n of_o the_o succession_n without_o have_v a_o great_a many_o passage_n which_o doleman_n have_v get_v into_o his_o
