a_o speech_n but_o why_o must_v the_o dissenter_n trading_n together_o and_o take_v one_o another_o part_n be_v a_o design_n against_o the_o government_n more_o than_o of_o those_o that_o call_v

and_o divers_a other_o place_n both_o sunday_n and_o working-day_n to_o manage_v the_o cause_n which_o the_o justice_n aim_v at_o and_o the_o churchman_n in_o reality_n as_o they_o will_v be_v

be_v a_o great_a trader_n in_o the_o city_n i_o be_o confident_a the_o justice_n can_v show_v we_o any_o such_o voluntary_a oath_n of_o man_n of_o their_o quality_n that_o ever_o do_v so_o far_o take_v one_o another_o part_n among_o the_o dissenter_n as_o to_o swear_v in_o club_n so_o after_o the_o justice_n have_v show_v the_o dissenter_n deal_n of_o lay_v their_o head_n together_o in_o disturb_v the_o peace_n in_o the_o next_o place_n pag._n 5._o he_o tell_v we_o in_o praise_n of_o the_o church_n pary_n and_o in_o opposition_n to_o the_o dissenter_n that_o they_o the_o church_n

neither_o see_v their_o danger_n or_o interest_n most_o of_o they_o endeavour_n to_o build_v upon_o their_o own_o ground_n and_o raise_v to_o themselves_o pyramid_n of_o honour_n and_o riches_n and_o have_v not_o mind_v they_o of_o the_o same_o party_n who_o be_v force_v to_o shift_v for_o themselves_o as_o well_o as_o they_o can_v now_o i_o will_v have_v the_o ingenuous_a churchman_n consider_v what_o a_o great_a deal_n of_o honour_n this_o gentleman_n have_v do_v they_o he_o have_v to_o vindicate_v they_o call_v they_o blind_a fool_n nay_o such_o fool_n that_o no_o brute_n beast_n can_v be_v worse_o what_o be_v it_o i_o pray_v you_o to_o they_o to_o put_v out_o their_o own_o eye_n and_o not_o see_v for_o themselves_o and_o when_o that_o be_v do_v he_o tell_v we_o it_o be_v the_o

that_o i_o may_v be_v in_o darkness_n still_o and_o that_o this_o child_n of_o light_n though_o a_o churchman_n may_v get_v honour_n and_o in_o his_o own_o way_n for_o my_o part_n i_o will_v neither_o

this_o notice_n take_v yes_o sure_o he_o may_v be_v allow_v many_o when_o he_o mean_v well_o for_o in_o this_o whole_a speech_n if_o you_o observe_v it_o and_o if_o you_o believe_v himself_o he_o do_v
