these_o malignant_n do_v harden_v themselves_o against_o the_o fresh_a of_o the_o judgement_n of_o god_n which_o some_o of_o their_o own_o hand_n have_v execute_v and_o justify_v the_o persecutor_n and_o succeed_v they_o in_o their_o fury_n have_v you_o forget_v what_o god_n have_v do_v here_o against_o the_o papal_a enemy_n of_o the_o gospel_n and_o ministry_n in_o 88_o and_o the_o

ireland_n and_o dare_v you_o now_o stand_v up_o in_o their_o room_n and_o make_v yourselves_o the_o heir_n of_o their_o sin_n and_o punishment_n and_o justify_v they_o in_o all_o their_o malignity_n what_o do_v you_o but_o justify_v they_o when_o you_o rave_v against_o and_o revile_v the_o same_o sort_n of_o minister_n and_o many_o of_o the_o same_o person_n who_o the_o former_a malignant_n persecute_v and_o oppose_v the_o same_o sort_n of_o minister_n that_o the_o papist_n burn_v and_o will_v not_o you_o do_v the_o like_a by_o they_o if_o you_o have_v power_n in_o your_o hand_n can_v any_o wise_a man_n doubt_n of_o it_o whether_o papist_n and_o quaker_n and_o drunkard_n that_o now_o make_v it_o their_o work_n to_o make_v the_o ministry_n odious_a will_v not_o soon_o dispatch_v they_o if_o they_o can_v bless_a be_v the_o great_a protector_n of_o the_o church_n for_o be_v it_o not_o for_o he_o our_o life_n will_v soon_o be_v a_o prey_n to_o your_o cruelty_n 22._o and_o indeed_o if_o these_o malignant_n have_v their_o will_n they_o will_v undo_v themselves_o and_o cut_v down_o the_o bough_n they_o stand_v upon_o and_o destroy_v the_o little_a hope_n and_o help_v that_o be_v yet_o leave_v for_o their_o miserable_a soul_n it_o be_v for_o the_o sake_n of_o god_n servant_n among_o they_o that_o judgement_n be_v so_o long_o keep_v off_o they_o and_o as_o long_o

their_o eye_n which_o may_v at_o last_o convince_v they_o as_o paul_n be_v convince_v of_o his_o persecution_n the_o voice_n which_o they_o despise_v may_v possible_o awake_v they_o though_o they_o have_v less_o hope_n than_o other_o yet_o there_o be_v some_o but_o if_o they_o have_v their_o will_n and_o be_v rid_v of_o the_o ministry_n alas_o what_o will_v the_o forlorn_a wretch_n do_v then_o they_o may_v damn_v themselves_o without_o disturbance_n and_o go_v quiet_o to_o hell_n and_o nobody_o stop_v they_o and_o say_v why_o do_v you_o so_o 23._o and_o i_o pray_v you_o consider_v what_o
