and_o so_o many_o learned_a man_n have_v already_o write_v upon_o it_o may_v be_v suppose_v to_o have_v aid_n all_o of_o moment_n that_o be_v to_o be_v say_v upon_o it_o but_o my_o answer_n be_v that_o notwithstanding_o all_o that_o have_v be_v write_v a_o great_a many_o do_v yet_o remain_v unsatisfied_a and_o it_o grieve_v i_o to_o think_v that_o their_o majesty_n who_o have_v run_v such_o mighty_a hazard_n and_o do_v so_o much_o for_o we_o shall_v still_o have_v so_o many_o secret_a enemy_n in_o the_o nation_n or_o if_o that_o be_v too_o hard_a a_o character_n for_o some_o that_o have_v refuse_v the_o oath_n so_o many_o that_o be_v not_o yet_o such_o hearty_a friend_n as_o they_o ought_v to_o be_v that_o protestant_n be_v so_o backward_o at_o make_v use_n of_o the_o fair_a opportunity_n of_o secure_v themselves_o and_o fence_v against_o popery_n that_o they_o have_v have_v these_o many_o year_n which_o the_o papist_n have_v give_v they_o by_o a_o over-active_a zeal_n for_o their_o destruction_n while_o papist_n do_v ready_o embrace_v and_o make_v use_n of_o all_o advantage_n against_o they_o though_o never_o so_o foul_a that_o some_o who_o be_v seem_o zealous_a son_n of_o the_o church_n of_o england_n shall_v take_v such_o measure_n as_o tend_v to_o her_o destruction_n that_o such_o as_o have_v most_o bitter_o declaim_v against_o separation_n from_o our_o

who_o mean_v honest_o shall_v be_v do_v the_o french_a king_n and_o the_o papist_n business_n at_o a_o time_n when_o the_o protestant_a cause_n and_o the_o fate_n of_o europe_n lie_v at_o stake_n and_o last_o that_o any_o conscientious_a and_o learned_a man_n shall_v lose_v preferment_n and_o that_o the_o church_n shall_v be_v deprive_v of_o the_o benefit_n of_o their_o labour_n these_o be_v the_o reason_n that_o have_v at_o length_n overcome_v my_o great_a aversion_n to_o writing_n the_o argument_n i_o make_v use_n of_o have_v indeed_o be_v light_o touch_v upon_o by_o some_o other_o and_o it_o can_v not_o well_o fall_v out_o otherwise_o within_o the_o compass_n of_o so_o much_o time_n as_o this_o dispute_n have_v be_v on_o foot_n in_o but_o let_v not_o this_o acknowledgement_n at_o the_o entrance_n at_o all_o prejudice_n any_o man_n against_o read_v what_o i_o have_v write_v upon_o a_o belief_n that_o i_o offer_v nothing_o new_a nothing_o but_o what_o he_o have_v already_o

be_v reject_v do_v prevail_v when_o urge_v in_o a_o different_a way_n although_o with_o a_o great_a deal_n less_o skill_n but_o whether_o i_o have_v write_v better_a or_o worse_o upon_o this_o subject_n than_o other_o man_n be_v not_o at_o all_o the_o question_n but_o whether_o or_o no_o i_o have_v make_v good_a my_o undertake_n i_o confess_v when_o i_o consider_v how_o subject_a all_o
