settle_v upon_o some_o other_o christian_n or_o not_o christian_a all_o be_v one_o so_o no_o papist_n and_o so_o the_o right_a heir_n be_v disinherited_a for_o not_o serve_v the_o people_n with_o more_o reverence_n than_o his_o maker_n there_o be_v no_o man_n but_o will_v willing_o enjoy_v the_o freedom_n of_o his_o religion_n and_o will_v hardly_o think_v it_o just_a to_o have_v his_o

of_o what_o he_o have_v for_o be_v it_o once_o grant_v that_o the_o d_o may_v be_v cut_v off_o from_o his_o inheritance_n for_o his_o present_a persuasion_n than_o the_o reason_n will_v be_v equal_o

the_o only_a objection_n against_o the_o d._n that_o can_v possible_o be_v make_v be_v that_o he_o will_v endeavour_v to_o propagate_v his_o persuasion_n who_o will_v not_o who_o do_v not_o this_o

to_o settle_v his_o religion_n by_o such_o mean_n as_o none_o will_v do_v but_o such_o a_o person_n as_o be_v act_v by_o zeal_n and_o interest_n mix_v with_o some_o vanity_n and_o popularity_n the_o

and_o then_o the_o connection_n of_o what_o follow_v be_v so_o natural_a unless_o you_o disable_v he_o to_o inherit_v and_o the_o tyranny_n of_o the_o see_v of_o rome_n will_v infallible_o steal_v upon_o we_o i_o confess_v i_o can_v tell_v when_o no_o more_o than_o he_o can_v for_o i_o must_v tell_v he_o bold_o that_o if_o he_o mean_v under_o a_o popish_a successor_n it_o be_v nonsense_n upon_o

upon_o we_o infallible_o because_o the_o man_n from_o who_o we_o ought_v to_o fear_n be_v total_o disable_v to_o inherit_v but_o whether_o it_o hang_v together_o or_o no_o it_o be_v all_o one_o it_o

may_v be_v he_o be_v in_o a_o rapture_n or_o a_o fit_a of_o the_o high_a zeal_n and_o than_o one_o may_v be_v allow_v to_o forget_v himself_o have_v so_o great_a a_o respect_n to_o the_o protestant_a

therefore_o we_o must_v clip_v his_o lock_n that_o be_v take_v his_o crown_n or_o his_o head_n from_o he_o if_o we_o can_v possible_o surmise_v that_o he_o will_v pull_v down_o the_o temple_n true_o this_o gentleman_n will_v have_v make_v a_o better_a philistin_n than_o a_o protestant_n oh_o but_o how_o can_v one_o blame_v he_o for_o his_o zealous_a fear_n when_o he_o have_v late_o see_v coleman_n ghost_n dreadful_o recite_v a_o terrible_a maxim_n that_o the_o papist_n will_v get_v the_o upper_a hand_n if_o they_o stand_v upon_o a_o equal_a foot_n and_o if_o so_o and_o so_o it_o must_v needs_o be_v if_o mr._n coleman_n infallible_a spirit_n say_v it_o why_o then_o to_o secure_v our_o own_o life_n and_o estate_n make_v sure_a of_o the_o duke_n let_v he_o not_o have_v his_o

this_o be_v true_a religion_n beside_o the_o policy_n of_o it_o for_o look_v you_o religion_n teach_v to_o secure_a religion_n and_o i_o myself_o have_v find_v out_o a_o way_n to_o effect_v it_o the_o
