the_o stop_v the_o exchequer_n the_o declaration_n for_o toleration_n and_o the_o writ_n for_o the_o member_n of_o the_o house_n be_v matter_n of_o hard_a digestion_n yet_o no_o soon_o do_v the_o

they_o to_o their_o country_n this_o new_a security_n for_o their_o religion_n which_o we_o be_v desire_v now_o to_o throw_v up_o and_o which_o the_o reverend_a judge_n have_v already_o throw_v out_o as_o a_o law_n out_o of_o date_n if_o this_o have_v carry_v in_o it_o any_o new_a piece_n of_o severity_n their_o complaint_n may_v be_v just_a but_o they_o be_v extreme_a tender_a if_o they_o be_v so_o uneasy_a under_o a_o law_n that_o only_o give_v they_o leisure_n and_o opportunity_n to_o live_v at_o home_n and_o the_o last_o test_n which_o be_v intend_v only_o for_o shut_v they_o out_o from_o a_o share_n in_o the_o legislative_a body_n appear_v to_o be_v so_o just_a that_o one_o be_v rather_o amaze_v to_o find_v that_o it_o be_v so_o long_a a_o do_v than_o that_o it_o be_v do_v at_o

do_v it_o be_v because_o there_o be_v not_o such_o cause_n give_v for_o jealousy_n to_o work_v upon_o but_o what_o have_v appear_v since_o that_o time_n and_o what_o have_v be_v print_v in_o his_o

in_o a_o religion_n which_o we_o must_v believe_v idolatrous_a so_o we_o be_v far_o from_o the_o ill_a manner_n of_o reflect_v on_o his_o person_n or_o call_v he_o a_o idolater_n for_o as_o every_o

from_o who_o the_o more_o learned_a of_o her_o member_n know_v well_o what_o they_o may_v expect_v and_o since_o our_o author_n like_v the_o figure_n of_o a_o snake_n in_o one_o bosom_n so_o well_o

believe_v to_o be_v only_o a_o piece_n of_o bread_n the_o representation_n he_o give_v of_o this_o part_n of_o our_o history_n be_v so_o false_a that_o though_o upon_o queen_n elizabeth_n come_v to_o
