so_o great_a a_o minister_n can_v have_v be_v able_a to_o have_v reveal_v namely_o that_o though_o the_o king_n and_o parliament_n upon_o the_o first_o revolution_n with_o respect_n to_o religion_n and_o the_o introduce_v and_o set_v up_o the_o reform_a religion_n think_v fit_a to_o make_v those_o law_n which_o they_o judge_v necessary_a for_o its_o preservation_n yet_o that_o it_o do_v not_o

re-establish_a religion_n into_o the_o same_o state_n in_o which_o it_o be_v before_o the_o reform_a doctrine_n and_o worship_n be_v set_v up_o we_o be_v much_o oblige_v to_o our_o author_n for_o this_o discovery_n though_o i_o must_v add_v that_o this_o it_o be_v to_o trust_v a_o fool_n with_o secret_n for_o he_o will_v be_v sure_a to_o be_v blab_v for_o though_o he_o subjoin_v that_o he_o

design_v by_o the_o papal_a party_n if_o they_o can_v compass_v a_o parliament_n of_o a_o complexion_n and_o temper_n to_o their_o mind_n but_o there_o be_v two_o fatal_a thing_n which_o lie_v in_o their_o way_n one_o be_v that_o neither_o progress_v nor_o closeting_n bribe_v nor_o threaten_v can_v prove_v effectual_a to_o give_v they_o the_o slender_a ground_n of_o confidence_n of_o their_o obtain_v a_o parliament_n of_o that_o mould_n and_o constitution_n and_o the_o second_o be_v that_o all_o the_o member_n must_v take_v the_o test_n before_o they_o can_v be_v a_o legal_a parliament_n and_o then_o there_o be_v little_a probability_n that_o they_o who_o can_v make_v the_o declaration_n require_v in_o these_o law_n will_v be_v inclinable_a to_o repeal_v they_o especial_o at_o a_o season_n when_o their_o own_o safety_n as_o well_o as_o that_o of_o the_o protestant_a religion_n render_v it_o so_o necessary_a to_o have_v they_o maintain_v whatsoever_o any_o body_n of_o man_n by_o what_o name_n soever_o they_o be_v call_v or_o within_o what_o wall_n soever_o they_o assemble_v shall_v attempt_v to_o do_v without_o first_o have_v take_v the_o test_n be_v ipso_fw-la facto_fw-la null_a and_o void_a in_o law_n and_o will_v serve_v to_o no_o legal_a purpose_n but_o to_o make_v themselves_o obnoxious_a to_o the_o severe_a punishment_n which_o the_o justice_n of_o a_o provoke_v and_o betray_v nation_n can_v be_v able_a to_o inflict_v upon_o they_o so_o that_o we_o do_v not_o doubt_v what_o the_o king_n will_v do_v for_o the_o re-establish_a popery_n and_o banish_v the_o protestant_a religion_n can_v he_o get_v a_o parliament_n to_o his_o mind_n but_o our_o hope_n be_v that_o he_o will_v not_o and_o the_o better_a to_o prevent_v it_o we_o will_v endeavour_v to_o
