those_o person_n will_v not_o only_o discover_v their_o own_o hypocrisy_n if_o they_o conceal_v he_o but_o expose_v themselves_o and_o their_o friend_n to_o ruin_n so_o that_o to_o say_v true_a the_o government_n have_v the_o interest_n and_o security_n of_o a_o entire_a party_n for_o the_o discovery_n of_o every_o such_o suspect_a person_n but_o if_o this_o will_v not_o do_v than_o second_o be_v you_o please_v to_o refer_v the_o discrimination_n of_o suspect_a person_n to_o the_o good_a old_a way_n of_o the_o government_n that_o be_v the_o inquiry_n and_o judgement_n of_o twelve_o man_n of_o
