study_v this_o black_a art_n ii_o dismal_a and_o bloody_a villainy_n be_v varnish_v with_o religion_n that_o upon_o disappointment_n they_o may_v not_o altogether_o be_v disappoint_v for_o if_o the_o cockatrice-egg_n of_o sedition_n be_v not_o hatch_v with_o the_o warmth_n of_o a_o conventicle_n into_o the_o serpent_n of_o rebellion_n than_o it_o must_v pass_v for_o a_o harmless_a incubation_n thus_o horrid_a faux_n surprise_v in_o his_o destructive_a cell_n retain_v his_o vizor_n plead_v he_o be_v about_o his_o lawful_a occasion_n mean_v no_o harm_n not_o he_o may_v not_o he_o and_o his_o confederate_n meet_v in_o their_o own_o hire_a house_n have_v the_o king_n officer_n no_o more_o conscience_n than_o to_o disturb_v honest_a man_n thus_o the_o old_a powder-plotter_n and_o underminer_n of_o church_n and_o state_n do_v not_o want_v the_o same_o apology_n of_o our_o modern_a faux_n '_o s._n so_o that_o tho'_o the_o train_n they_o have_v lay_v to_o blow_v up_o at_o once_o the_o church_n and_o state_n do_v not_o take_v yet_o they_o be_v shot-free_a and_o justice-proof_n by_o a_o pious_a charm_n the_o man-slayer_n which_o the_o prophet_n zechariah_n make_v mention_n of_o in_o his_o time_n zach._n 11.5_o use_v the_o very_a same_o cant_v tone_n of_o our_o man_n of_o blood_n of_o a_o late_a date_n bless_v be_v the_o lord_n bless_a be_v the_o lord_n and_o yet_o in_o the_o

and_o you_o need_v not_o study_v a_o parallel_n instance_n so_o that_o tho'_o these_o pious_a pander_n can_v in_o the_o night_n of_o delusion_n prostitute_n their_o deform_a brat_n and_o monstrous_a

pass_v if_o not_o for_o a_o beauty_n yet_o for_o a_o saint_n or_o at_o least_o stave_v off_o for_o fear_v of_o do_v violence_n to_o purity_n all_o thought_n of_o search_v she_o for_o a_o witch_n wander_v vagabond_n do_v thus_o legitimate_a their_o vagrancy_n by_o a_o ballad_n or_o peddle_v trade_n which_o tho'_o it_o bring_v not_o much_o in_o yet_o it_o save_v their_o back_n from_o the_o

with_o the_o old_a vestment_n and_o coverlid_n of_o sanctity_n hang_v down_o the_o head_n like_o a_o bulrush_n look_v sad_o and_o with_o the_o whore_n in_o the_o proverb_n wipe_v their_o mouth_n and_o
