that_o a_o enemy_n of_o the_o council_n may_v deserve_v as_o little_a credit_n as_o a_o enemy_n of_o you_o another_o reason_n why_o i_o do_v not_o like_v he_o be_v because_o he_o take_v upon_o he_o

weigh_v more_o with_o i_o than_o all_o the_o rest_n be_v this_o you_o tell_v i_o on_o the_o one_o side_n he_o be_v a_o popish_a friar_n and_o on_o the_o other_o i_o can_v believe_v but_o that_o although_o perhaps_o for_o some_o reason_n he_o do_v not_o open_o profess_v it_o he_o be_v real_o a_o protestant_n it_o appear_v so_o plain_o by_o his_o censure_v the_o decree_n of_o doctrine_n as_o

he_o there_o be_v something_o of_o integrity_n &_o honour_n in_o a_o man_n that_o open_o profess_v what_o he_o be_v and_o although_o passion_n &_o prejudice_n may_v blind_v he_o yet_o i_o be_o apt_a to_o think_v that_o such_o a_o person_n will_v never_o deceive_v i_o more_o than_o he_o deceive_v himself_o but_o a_o protestant_n that_o live_v &_o die_v in_o the_o profession_n of_o a_o popish_a
