behold_v a_o poor_a old_a miserable_a creature_n death_n but_o i_o trow_v there_o be_v few_o among_o you_o who_o be_v weep_v and_o mourn_v for_o the_o break_a covenant_n and_o have_v so_o speak_v she_o throw_v herself_o in_o great_a haste_n off_o the_o ladder_n than_o a_o person_n shall_v have_v do_v who_o be_v no_o better_o prepare_v for_o another_o world_n i_o can_v tell_v you_o many_o

put_v to_o death_n at_o sterling_n for_o commit_v uncleanness_n with_o five_o individual_a among_o which_o there_o be_v four_o species_n of_o irrational_a animal_n and_o immediate_o before_o his_o execution_n the_o unclean_a wretch_n protest_v against_o the_o prelate_n and_o boast_v of_o his_o constant_a zeal_n for_o the_o covenant_n and_o so_o without_o declare_v any_o detestation_n of_o his_o crime_n or_o desire_v the_o people_n to_o pray_v for_o he_o go_v off_o with_o all_o assurance_n into_o the_o other_o world_n i_o shall_v not_o have_v relate_v any_o of_o these_o story_n with_o reflection_n on_o the_o schismatical_a party_n but_o that_o nine_o part_n in_o ten_o of_o the_o horrid_a sin_n such_o as_o witchcraft_n bestiality_n and_o incest_n be_v find_v among_o they_o which_o have_v occasion_v a_o proverbial_a sarcasm_n in_o our_o language_n against_o they_o that_o the_o whig_n give_v to_o heaven_n a_o gate_n of_o their_o own_o this_o be_v no_o hyperbole_n but_o a_o plain_a historical_a truth_n which_o our_o judge_n can_v testify_v and_o which_o may_v be_v confirm_v by_o the_o register_n of_o our_o criminal_a court_n and_o then_o as_o for_o adultery_n and_o

be_v no_o few_o than_o 17._o whig_n who_o do_v public_a penance_n for_o fornication_n and_o adultery_n at_o one_o time_n the_o parish_n be_v very_o disaffect_v so_o that_o on_o that_o lordsday_n

to_o make_v it_o comply_v with_o their_o wicked_a opinion_n as_o the_o gnostic_n do_v to_o make_v it_o countenance_n they_o mr._n mitchel_n paper_n be_v full_a proof_n of_o this_o charge_n beside_o

of_o christ_n in_o the_o four_o place_n as_o the_o gnostic_n pretend_v to_o be_v christian_n and_o yet_o in_o many_o thing_n comply_v with_o the_o wicked_a jew_n and_o join_v with_o they_o in_o

join_v most_o cordial_o with_o they_o to_o overthrow_v both_o our_o and_o your_o church_n which_o the_o papist_n acknowledge_v to_o be_v the_o strong_a bulwark_n against_o themselves_o that_o be_v
