love_n of_o the_o people_n by_o virtue_n and_o extinguish_v these_o faction_n by_o a_o severe_a and_o constant_a execution_n of_o our_o law_n as_o i_o say_v before_o but_o however_o this_o they_o

thomas_n moor_n be_v the_o chief_a who_o have_v be_v lord_n chancellor_n of_o england_n and_o beside_o that_o prince_n maintain_v the_o great_a part_n of_o the_o popish_a doctrine_n entire_a to_o his_o last_o breath_n edward_n the_o 6_o reform_v the_o doctrine_n too_o but_o he_o live_v not_o long_a and_o queen_n mary_n his_o successor_n throw_v all_o thing_n back_o again_o into_o their_o

they_o have_v be_v protestant_n in_o the_o reign_n of_o edward_n the_o 6_o other_o embrace_v the_o protestant_a religion_n then_o with_o a_o resolution_n to_o desert_n it_o again_o if_o the_o time_n

prejudice_n and_o education_n and_o for_o want_n of_o mean_n and_o ability_n to_o examine_v thing_n continue_v in_o the_o popish_a religion_n but_o yet_o the_o great_a part_n of_o the_o nation_n take_v up_o a_o hearty_a aversion_n for_o it_o out_o of_o a_o detestation_n of_o the_o cruelty_n they_o have_v see_v use_v in_o the_o reign_v of_o henry_n the_o 8_o and_o queen_n mary_n and_o of_o the_o treachery_n they_o have_v see_v practise_v against_o queen_n elizabeth_n who_o they_o infinite_o love_v and_o admire_v and_o indeed_o the_o length_n and_o prosperity_n of_o her_o reign_n have_v in_o all_o probability_n put_v a_o end_n to_o that_o faction_n in_o england_n if_o two_o thing_n have_v not_o keep_v up_o their_o hope_n and_o revive_v it_o the_o first_o of_o which_o be_v their_o

that_o be_v a_o long_a time_n after_o yet_o they_o still_o flatter_v themselves_o some_o other_o person_n of_o their_o persuasion_n will_v inherit_v her_o crown_n and_o put_v a_o end_n to_o their_o

be_v it_o that_o make_v it_o so_o difficult_a to_o extirpate_v those_o faction_n that_o be_v build_v upon_o that_o pretence_n the_o second_o thing_n that_o tend_v to_o uphold_v popery_n in_o england_n be_v the_o policy_n of_o philip_n the_o second_o king_n of_o spain_n who_o to_o revenge_v the_o assistance_n the_o queen_n lend_v his_o subject_n in_o flanders_n then_o in_o a_o war_n with_o he_o

they_o breed_v they_o up_o in_o a_o invincible_a hatred_n of_o the_o religion_n by_o law_n establish_v and_o other_o they_o send_v over_o with_o order_n to_o preach_v up_o popery_n as_o much_o as_o they_o dare_v and_o have_v it_o not_o be_v for_o this_o there_o have_v be_v very_o few_o papist_n leave_v at_o that_o queen_n death_n who_o reign_v 44_o year_n though_o king_n james_n be_v infinite_o

neither_o be_v they_o careful_o execute_v in_o his_o or_o his_o son_n time_n yet_o this_o faction_n sensible_o decrease_v and_o a_o great_a part_n of_o those_o that_o remain_v be_v ruin_v by_o the_o war_n and_o the_o late_a plot_n in_o this_o king_n time_n have_v prove_v very_o effectual_a to_o bring_v off_o many_o more_o from_o that_o opinion_n so_o that_o by_o one_o mean_n or_o other_o it_o be_v become_v one_o of_o the_o most_o despicable_a faction_n in_o this_o nation_n and_o if_o the_o blow_n have_v be_v well_o follow_v may_v perhaps_o have_v be_v entire_o ruin_v have_v queen_n elizabeth_n method_n be_v well_o pursue_v by_o all_o her_o successor_n they_o must_v in_o likelihood_n have_v be_v extinguish_v but_o there_o be_v a_o odd_a sort_n of_o policy_n take_v up_o which_o be_v to_o slacken_v the_o execution_n of_o the_o law_n against_o they_o that_o they_o may_v be_v a_o counterbalance_n to_o the_o puritan_n faction_n which_o produce_v two_o great_a evil_n first_o they_o be_v so_o far_o from_o lend_v we_o any_o assistance_n against_o the_o dissenter_n that_o their_o priest_n increase_v the_o number_n of_o they_o by_o preach_v up_o their_o opinion_n and_o add_v to_o they_o as_o appear_v by_o a_o small_a pamphlet_n call_v fox_n and_o firebrand_n which_o prove_v they_o be_v the_o father_n of_o extemporary_a prayer_n in_o public_a assembly_n and_o by_o several_a other_o such_o stratagem_n which_o they_o employ_v against_o we_o second_o these_o dissenter_n make_v it_o their_o great_a business_n to_o inculcate_v into_o the_o head_n of_o the_o rabble_n a_o opinion_n that_o all_o the_o lenity_n that_o be_v use_v towards_o the_o papist_n proceed_v from_o a_o love_n to_o popery_n which_o both_o make_v more_o puritan_n than_o there_o will_v otherwise_o have_v be_v and_o make_v they_o better_a thought_n of_o by_o the_o rabble_n so_o that_o instead_o of_o diminish_v or_o weaken_v that_o faction_n it_o increase_v it_o and_o add_v reputation_n to_o it_o and_o the_o papist_n make_v the_o same_o use_n of_o it_o and_o draw_v over_o some_o weak_a and_o unsteady_a soul_n to_o join_v with_o they_o so_o that_o our_o enemy_n increase_v on_o both_o side_n but_o especial_o the_o dissenter_n and_o this_o be_v all_o we_o ever_o do_v or_o can_v get_v by_o that_o extravagant_a piece_n of_o policy_n beside_o all_o this_o the_o people_n will_v ever_o entertain_v jealous_a thought_n and_o be_v discontent_v at_o all_o those_o that_o ever_o so_o little_a favour_n the_o papist_n and_o so_o long_o as_o there_o be_v any_o number_n of_o they_o among_o we_o beside_o all_o the_o disquiet_n they_o give_v we_o the_o factious_a dissenter_n will_v take_v hold_n of_o that_o pretence_n to_o do_v we_o a_o mischief_n as_o time_n and_o opportunity_n serve_v so_o i_o conclude_v it_o be_v the_o interest_n and_o duty_n of_o all_o magistrate_n to_o put_v the_o law_n against_o they_o constant_o and_o vigorous_o in_o execution_n and_o especial_o those_o against_o send_v their_o child_n beyond_o sea_n to_o be_v breed_v in_o the_o seminary_n and_o jesuit_n college_n where_o they_o learn_v more_o malice_n and_o more_o skill_n than_o they_o can_v do_v in_o england_n and_o because_o this_o be_v a_o work_n of_o time_n it_o be_v their_o duty_n in_o the_o interim_n to_o show_v the_o people_n two_o thing_n first_o that_o

which_o have_v not_o be_v say_v before_o on_o this_o account_n instead_o of_o which_o i_o be_o rather_o incline_v to_o deplore_v the_o misery_n of_o the_o age_n and_o nation_n in_o which_o we_o live_v for_o it_o may_v be_v that_o since_o the_o creation_n of_o the_o world_n there_o be_v not_o one_o to_o be_v find_v in_o which_o perjury_n and_o disregard_n of_o the_o obligation_n of_o all_o oath_n have_v take_v such_o deep_a root_n and_o become_v so_o epidemical_a and_o general_n if_o we_o inquire_v into_o the_o reason_n of_o it_o we_o shall_v find_v two_o which_o have_v contribute_v especial_o
