good_a wherefore_o as_o their_o interest_n why_o there_o shall_v be_v a_o plot_n be_v one_o argument_n to_o i_o there_o be_v one_o so_o the_o plot_n be_v likewise_o another_o argument_n to_o i_o that_o they_o have_v a_o design_n upon_o church-land_n for_o which_o reason_n i_o can_v almost_o wish_v that_o all_o the_o abbey_n in_o england_n have_v be_v demolish_v and_o level_v with_o the_o ground_n at_o the_o time_n of_o the_o reformation_n since_o the_o best_a way_n to_o destroy_v priest_n as_o well_o as_o crow_n be_v to_o pluck_v down_o both_o their_o nest_n now_o these_o thing_n consider_v do_v full_o satisfy_v i_o of_o the_o papist_n plot_n and_o design_n to_o introduce_v popery_n and_o with_o that_o arbitrary_a government_n whereby_o alone_o they_o inspect_v to_o be_v

now_o although_o i_o believe_v the_o popish_a plot_n in_o general_n yet_o can_v i_o not_o but_o suspend_v my_o credit_n of_o many_o particular_a circumstance_n give_v in_o evidence_n concern_v the_o

which_o very_a thing_n make_v many_o incredulous_a person_n raise_v this_o scruple_n whether_o some_o man_n perceive_v the_o design_n of_o the_o papist_n to_o introduce_v popery_n which_o part_n of_o the_o plot_n be_v undeniable_a even_o by_o their_o own_o party_n do_v not_o to_o represent_v it_o more_o formidable_a to_o the_o common_a people_n forge_v this_o aditional_a plot_n of_o murder_v the_o

whether_o this_o be_v the_o truth_n of_o it_o or_o no_o i_o do_v not_o positive_o affirm_v only_o this_o i_o know_v that_o since_o college_n trial_n neither_o i_o nor_o i_o presume_v any_o one_o else_o can_v have_v that_o esteem_n for_o the_o popish_a witness_n as_o before_o where_o if_o you_o believe_v dugdale_n turbervil_n and_o smith_n what_o must_v you_o think_v of_o oates_n evidence_n
