a_o amicable_a accommodation_n of_o the_o difference_n between_o the_o representer_n and_o the_o answerer_n in_o return_n to_o his_o last_o reply_n against_o the_o papist_n protest_v against_o

amicable_a accommodation_n of_o the_o difference_n between_o the_o representer_n and_o the_o answerer_n here_o be_v a_o strange_a voluminous_a ado_n about_o the_o papist_n misrepresented_a and_o represent_v first_o almost_o twenty_o sheet_n by_o way_n of_o answer_n to_o it_o then_o ten_o in_o a_o second_o reply_n and_o now_o fifteen_o in_o a_o rejoynder_n and_o after_o all_o this_o pother_n and_o noise_n the_o upshot_n of_o the_o matter_n be_v come_v to_o this_o that_o the_o word_n misrepresent_v be_v a_o improper_a expression_n that_o the_o character_n of_o a_o papist_n misrepresent_v can_v be_v call_v a_o misrepresentation_n in_o a_o strict_a and_o proper_a sense_n as_o our_o antiprotester_n have_v it_o often_o in_o his_o last_o reply_n where_o yet_o he_o own_v the_o prove_v this_o to_o 4._o have_v be_v the_o main_a drift_n of_o his_o former_a ten_o sheet_n and_o a_o great_a part_n of_o these_o last_o fifteen_o sure_o he_o have_v take_v a_o great_a deal_n of_o pain_n but_o to_o what_o purpose_n i_o expect_v to_o hear_v in_o other_o ten_o sheet_n yet_o to_o come_v for_o real_o i_o do_v not_o yet_o know_v that_o i_o be_o much_o concern_v whether_o it_o be_v a_o misrepresentation_n in_o a_o strict_a and_o proper_a sense_n or_o no._n and_o therefore_o since_o he_o have_v pitch_v upon_o so_o civil_a a_o way_n of_o confute_v my_o book_n i_o think_v i_o may_v in_o return_n to_o his_o civility_n and_o without_o wrong_n to_o my_o cause_n grant_v he_o the_o whole_a of_o his_o pretension_n and_o then_o sit_v down_o and_o smile_v with_o he_o a_o while_n to_o see_v how_o be_v so_o near_o of_o a_o mind_n we_o have_v yet_o be_v so_o long_o clash_v quill_n as_o adversary_n i_o be_o real_o for_o peace_n and_o a_o good_a correspondence_n and_o upon_o a_o serious_a consideration_n of_o this_o last_o answer_n have_v great_a reason_n to_o think_v that_o the_o most_o considerable_a part_n of_o the_o contention_n between_o we_o have_v be_v about_o a_o word_n and_o for_o want_v of_o a_o fair_a understanding_n i_o will_v endeavour_v to_o lay_v open_a my_o mind_n far_o to_o he_o so_o to_o remove_v all_o misrepresentation_n from_o between_o we_o i_o hope_v he_o will_v pardon_v the_o expression_n though_o it_o be_v not_o in_o its_o strict_a and_o proper_a sense_n and_o by_o this_o mean_n accommodate_v our_o affair_n without_o let_v it_o swell_v far_o into_o a_o quarrel_n of_o yet_o great_a volume_n and_o first_o to_o take_v up_o the_o matter_n from_o the_o beginning_n if_o he_o have_v due_o consider_v all_o i_o say_v in_o the_o papist_n misrepresented_a and_o represent_v he_o may_v very_o well_o have_v excuse_v enter_v the_o field_n against_o i_o for_o though_o i_o there_o complain_v of_o papist_n be_v misrepresent_v to_o the_o world_n that_o their_o faith_n be_v expose_v in_o a_o disguise_n and_o many_o thing_n impute_v to_o their_o belief_n and_o doctrine_n which_o they_o disow_v and_o abominate_a yet_o in_o all_o this_o complaint_n i_o name_v no_o body_n i_o advance_v no_o accusation_n against_o any_o particular_a party_n and_o though_o i_o can_v have_v fill_v my_o margin_n with_o number_n of_o author_n urge_v much_o black_a calumny_n than_o i_o there_o insert_v yet_o still_o i_o suppress_v all_o name_n consult_v modesty_n and_o in_o regard_n of_o peace_n now_o what_o need_v here_o of_o any_o single_v themselves_o or_o a_o party_n out_o to_o engage_v with_o i_o i_o leave_v every_o body_n to_o to_o their_o own_o conscience_n and_o have_v those_o who_o feel_v themselves_o touch_v conceal_v the_o sting_n within_o their_o own_o breast_n there_o have_v be_v still_o a_o peace_n betwixt_o we_o if_o a_o man_n wipe_v the_o dirt_n off_o his_o face_n that_o have_v be_v throw_v at_o he_o in_o the_o street_n i_o hope_v he_o may_v do_v it_o without_o any_o affront_n to_o the_o passers-by_a his_o complaint_n in_o general_n of_o be_v abuse_v be_v only_o a_o natural_a right_n those_o that_o be_v innocent_a need_v not_o be_v much_o concern_v to_o clear_v themselves_o from_o the_o charge_n and_o such_o as_o be_v guilty_a avoid_v all_o quarrel_n if_o they_o but_o hold_v their_o tongue_n the_o papist_n therefore_o misrepresent_v and_o represent_v might_n very_o well_o have_v pass_v without_o move_v of_o choler_n if_o those_o who_o will_v have_v themselves_o not_o concern_v at_o all_o have_v not_o be_v too_o much_o concern_v to_o wipe_v off_o the_o imputation_n this_o have_v be_v a_o mean_n of_o preserve_v a_o mutual_a peace_n from_o the_o beginning_n but_o second_o though_o contrary_a to_o this_o method_n much_o dust_n have_v be_v raise_v and_o not_o without_o some_o heat_n in_o the_o quarrel_n yet_o i_o be_o still_o persuade_v our_o difference_n may_v be_v compound_v if_o a_o fair_a condescension_n can_v win_v any_o thing_n upon_o my_o adversary_n and_o he_o will_v allow_v i_o to_o purchase_v his_o goodwill_n by_o almost_o a_o entire_a submission_n to_o the_o chief_a of_o his_o pretension_n i_o will_v beg_v his_o leave_n to_o state_n the_o occasion_n of_o our_o debate_n and_o the_o reader_n shall_v soon_o see_v how_o much_o i_o can_v oblige_v he_o by_o my_o yield_n the_o occasion_n of_o my_o writing_n the_o papist_n misrepresented_a and_o represent_v be_v this_o i_o find_v that_o the_o people_n in_o england_n have_v a_o very_a false_a notion_n of_o popery_n or_o of_o the_o faith_n and_o doctrine_n of_o roman_a catholic_n that_o there_o be_v scarce_o any_o one_o article_n of_o their_o creed_n any_o one_o practice_n of_o their_o church_n which_o be_v not_o false_o draw_v in_o the_o imagination_n of_o the_o vulgar_a either_o blacken_v with_o calumny_n or_o disfigure_v with_o prejudice_v interpretation_n or_o malicious_a misconstruction_n that_o hence_o arise_v so_o great_a a_o hatred_n against_o all_o of_o that_o communion_n that_o the_o comprehensive_a precept_n of_o love_v one_o neighbour_n seem_v now_o to_o admit_v with_o the_o zealous_a of_o a_o necessary_a exception_n against_o all_o of_o that_o profession_n and_o the_o design_n of_o root_a out_o popery_n a_o sufficient_a dispensation_n for_o the_o violate_v all_o other_o duty_n both_o to_o god_n the_o king_n and_o our_o neighbour_n this_o uncharitable_a temper_n i_o can_v not_o but_o look_v upon_o as_o ill_o become_v a_o christian_a name_n and_o that_o to_o endeavour_v to_o remedy_v it_o will_v not_o be_v only_o acceptable_a to_o catholic_n but_o even_o to_o protestant_n too_o who_o i_o presume_v will_v be_v as_o willing_o prevent_v from_o do_v a_o injury_n to_o their_o neighbour_n as_o the_o other_o will_v be_v willing_a not_o to_o be_v injure_v it_o be_v a_o great_a concern_v of_o a_o church_n not_o to_o do_v a_o injury_n than_o to_o receive_v one_o for_o the_o remove_n therefore_o this_o scandal_n from_o christianity_n and_o hinder_v man_n from_o malign_v and_o rail_v against_o their_o neighbour_n for_o the_o false_a conceit_n of_o their_o own_o imagination_n by_o what_o mean_v soever_o take_v up_o by_o they_o i_o think_v it_o no_o ill_a expedient_a to_o declare_v sincere_o what_o be_v real_o the_o faith_n of_o a_o catholic_n and_o to_o show_v more_o clear_o how_o different_a it_o be_v from_o what_o it_o be_v vulgar_o say_v to_o be_v i_o draw_v out_o two_o description_n or_o character_n of_o popery_n the_o one_o be_v a_o idea_n of_o protestant_a popery_n or_o as_o it_o be_v general_o conceive_v by_o protestant_n and_o paint_v in_o the_o imagination_n of_o the_o vulgar_a of_o that_o communion_n the_o other_o be_v a_o draught_n of_o the_o faith_n of_o roman_a catholic_n as_o deliver_v and_o prescribe_v by_o their_o church_n the_o former_a of_o these_o character_n i_o call_v a_o papist_n misrepresent_v and_o the_o latter_a a_o papist_n represent_v and_o i_o think_v these_o title_n justifiable_a enough_o in_o as_o much_o as_o the_o one_o describe_v a_o papist_n otherwise_o than_o he_o real_o be_v disfigure_v with_o false_a colour_n and_o artificial_o turn_v into_o a_o monster_n by_o a_o deform_a dress_n throw_v over_o he_o by_o such_o who_o through_o ignorance_n or_o malice_n be_v willing_a to_o render_v he_o ridiculous_a while_o the_o other_o set_v he_o out_o divest_v of_o this_o bug_n bear_v habit_n and_o show_v he_o in_o his_o own_o genuine_a shape_n and_o complexion_n this_o inoffensive_a proceed_n
