all_o that_o they_o have_v print_v or_o preach_v since_o they_o be_v quaker_n and_o as_o if_o this_o have_v not_o be_v enough_o they_o have_v print_v it_o in_o the_o post-man_n that_o none_o may_v be_v ignorant_a of_o it_o i_o say_v not_o this_o that_o i_o will_v have_v any_o persecution_n as_o they_o call_v it_o renew_v against_o they_o i_o like_v not_o that_o method_n for_o there_o be_v

as_o to_o free_v they_o from_o the_o scandal_n of_o recognise_v the_o quaker_n as_o protestant_n who_o deny_v the_o holy_a trinity_n the_o satisfaction_n of_o christ_n and_o all_o outward_a both_o

since_o they_o enjoy_v their_o present_a liberty_n mere_o from_o the_o grace_n at_o least_o the_o good_a nature_n of_o those_o who_o of_o all_o mankind_n they_o have_v endeavour_v to_o render_v most_o
