very_o unwilling_a to_o entertain_v such_o vile_a thought_n of_o they_o but_o now_o i_o confess_v if_o this_o plain_a english_a be_v a_o truth_n of_o god_n which_o those_o i_o write_v against_o maintain_v it_o to_o be_v that_o be_v to_o say_v all_o the_o devil_n in_o hell_n can_v not_o keep_v any_o of_o those_o which_o be_v in_o heaven_n from_o that_o place_n nor_o shall_v be_v any_o

hell_n from_o that_o place_n of_o torment_n if_o this_o be_v a_o truth_n then_o ivery_o believe_v the_o character_n the_o learned_a man_n give_v as_o aforesaid_a of_o the_o clergy_n may_v be_v as_o true_a as_o the_o gospel_n they_o have_v nothing_o to_o do_v for_o to_o employ_v their_o wit_n on_o but_o on_o such_o devilish_a design_n but_o for_o my_o part_n believe_v their_o opinion_n to_o be_v one_o of_o the_o devil_n truth_n for_o indeed_o it_o be_v impossible_a for_o the_o devil_n to_o be_v a_o deceiver_n if_o their_o opinion_n be_v a_o truth_n of_o god_n therefore_o i_o hope_v to_o have_v more_o honourable_a thought_n of_o those_o clergy_n which_o discover_v that_o hellish_a opnion_n though_o i_o confess_v to_o my_o knowledge_n many_o of_o they_o ought_v to_o have_v a_o slash_v provide_v for_o they_o because_o they_o will_v not_o show_v themselves_o in_o this_o great_a work_n for_o the_o oppose_a of_o such_o a_o devilish_a heresy_n and_o very_o many_o minister_n have_v

they_o shall_v lose_v their_o bacon_n o_o sad_a sad_a sad_a be_v these_o miserable_a time_n we_o live_v in_o but_o i_o hope_v yet_o in_o god_n good_a time_n we_o shall_v have_v a_o through_o
