and_o the_o like_a which_o thing_n they_o then_o judge_v not_o to_o be_v a_o corruption_n of_o christianity_n but_o a_o manifest_a apostasy_n from_o christ_n for_o which_o see_v my_o countryman_n of_o

say_v they_o be_v blind_a leader_n of_o the_o blind_a and_o both_o of_o they_o shall_v sure_o fall_v into_o the_o pit_n final_o the_o angel_n of_o the_o church_n of_o england_n be_v both_o a_o

of_o his_o mind_n by_o cause_v they_o to_o banish_v and_o keep_v in_o banishment_n their_o most_o loyal_a and_o faithful_a subject_n and_o in_o deed_n although_o i_o be_o but_o a_o stranger_n unto_o

more_o loyal_a and_o faithful_a unto_o their_o prince_n and_o country_n and_o more_o zealous_a and_o religious_a towards_o god_n than_o they_o be_v and_o these_o thing_n be_v see_v in_o they_o and_o among_o they_o both_o private_o and_o public_o yea_o in_o such_o measure_n as_o that_o i_o be_o full_o persuade_v that_o they_o be_v and_o shall_v be_v if_o they_o continue_v faithful_a unto_o the_o
