division_n among_o protestant_n at_o that_o time_n and_o we_o have_v then_o nothing_o so_o formidable_a a_o enemy_n to_o our_o neighbour_n as_o we_o have_v now_o as_o to_o the_o tragedy_n now_o to_o

it_o high_o reasonable_a to_o impute_v this_o discovery_n to_o a_o secret_a impulse_n from_o he_o who_o have_v the_o heart_n of_o all_o man_n in_o his_o hand_n as_o the_o wise_a man_n say_v of_o the_o
