the_o dr._n have_v get_v such_o a_o pretty_a way_n of_o answer_v his_o own_o book_n that_o it_o be_v a_o thousand_o pity_n any_o one_o else_o shall_v take_v the_o trouble_n out_o of_o his_o hand_n nay_o i_o be_o inform_v continue_v he_o that_o when_o he_o take_v the_o oath_n he_o desire_v to_o be_v swear_v upon_o the_o naked_a gospel_n freeman_n it_o be_v strange_a i_o think_v that_o the_o dissenter_n shall_v be_v angry_a with_o the_o dr._n for_o what_o he_o have_v do_v if_o their_o zeal_n for_o the_o government_n be_v real_a and_o sincere_a which_o it_o be_v a_o sin_n for_o we_o in_o the_o country_n to_o question_v i_o wonder_v why_o they_o shall_v quarrel_v with_o he_o upon_o this_o score_n since_o the_o influence_n of_o his_o example_n for_o all_o they_o know_v may_v be_v serviceable_a to_o reduce_v the_o rest_n of_o his_o brethren_n who_o at_o present_a dissent_n from_o we_o tim._n that_o do_v not_o signify_v a_o farthing_n for_o beside_o their_o particular_a pique_n against_o the_o dr._n as_o he_o be_v a_o member_n of_o the_o establish_v church_n they_o will_v have_v neither_o he_o nor_o any_o one_o else_o who_o be_v not_o of_o their_o party_n be_v think_v loyal_a for_o all_o their_o former_a bellow_n and_o cry_n against_o the_o illegality_n of_o monopoly_n yet_o at_o present_a they_o will_v willing_o engross_v all_o the_o little_a honesty_n and_o loyalty_n that_o be_v leave_v in_o the_o nation_n into_o their_o own_o hand_n though_o by_o the_o by_o their_o loyalty_n be_v compound_v of_o such_o cross_n surly_a ill-natured_a ingredient_n and_o be_v such_o a_o odd_a awkward_a sort_n of_o loyalty_n that_o for_o all_o i_o can_v see_v to_o the_o contrary_a no_o prince_n in_o christendom_n be_v likely_a to_o be_v the_o better_a for_o it_o freem_v a_o dissenter_n loyalty_n be_v like_o the_o officiousness_n of_o a_o rock_n at_o play_n who_o only_o lend_v you_o money_n in_o order_n to_o your_o ruin_n i_o pray_v heaven_n it_o prove_v of_o long_a continuance_n but_o for_o my_o own_o part_n i_o be_o afraid_a it_o will_v last_v no_o long_o than_o they_o find_v their_o religion_n i_o mean_v their_o interest_n concern_v in_o it_o tim._n more_o than_o all_o this_o they_o will_v tell_v you_o that_o we_o owe_v the_o sunshine_n of_o the_o gospel_n and_o all_o the_o other_o blessing_n of_o the_o late_a revolution_n entire_o to_o their_o discretion_n and_o state-principle_n and_o that_o if_o these_o impracticable_a doctrine_n of_o the_o church_n of_o england_n concern_v the_o civil_a magistrate_n have_v take_v place_n we_o have_v by_o this_o time_n be_v utter_o overwhelm_v with_o popery_n and_o slavery_n freem_v why_o this_o be_v ten_o time_n over_o a_o more_o fulsome_a plea_n than_o their_o pretension_n to_o loyalty_n they_o preserve_v the_o protestant_a religion_n where_o or_o how_o or_o in_o what_o reign_n that_o we_o may_v see_v it_o register_v in_o our_o almanac_n i_o be_o sure_a they_o have_v contribute_v in_o all_o their_o pious_a endeavour_n to_o make_v the_o reformation_n as_o scandalous_a and_o despicable_a as_o any_o of_o the_o father_n of_o the_o society_n can_v have_v do_v they_o preserve_v it_o after_o a_o fine_a rate_n by_o their_o universal_a silence_n in_o the_o late_a reign_n and_o their_o little_a low_a abject_a application_n to_o popery_n and_o now_o when_o the_o enemy_n be_v beat_v out_o of_o the_o field_n they_o make_v a_o great_a pother_n with_o a_o few_o glean_n out_o of_o our_o own_o author_n and_o pretend_v the_o victory_n be_v owe_v to_o their_o assistance_n and_o conduct_n tim._n nay_o the_o dissenter_n have_v not_o be_v want_v even_o in_o this_o reign_n to_o do_v the_o protestant_a religion_n all_o the_o good_a service_n they_o can_v one_o of_o the_o tribe_n in_o his_o modest_a enquiry_n as_o he_o call_v it_o very_o modest_o advise_v the_o rabble_n to_o knock_v all_o the_o clergyman_n in_o the_o head_n and_o another_o nameless_a rascal_n in_o his_o reflection_n upon_o the_o miscarriage_n of_o our_o navy_n that_o be_v print_v by_o one_o of_o those_o godly_a wholesale_n dealer_n in_o scandal_n those_o scruple-selling_a vermin_n of_o the_o poultry_n have_v this_o remarkable_a passage_n viz._n that_o there_o be_v more_o virtue_n and_o honour_n to_o be_v find_v among_o the_o rabble_n than_o the_o gentry_n rabble_n be_v likewise_o the_o word_n with_o their_o dear_a brethren_n in_o scotland_n and_o you_o may_v guess_v what_o a_o brave_a religion_n we_o shall_v have_v of_o it_o at_o last_o if_o we_o follow_v these_o bless_a method_n and_o suffer_v it_o to_o be_v model_v and_o fit_v to_o the_o inclination_n of_o our_o judicious_a rabble_n freem_v why_o prithee_o tim_n you_o need_v not_o give_v yourself_o the_o trouble_n at_o this_o time_n of_o day_n to_o acquaint_v i_o with_o any_o of_o the_o laudable_a quality_n of_o the_o dissenter_n and_o especial_o of_o their_o levite_n as_o for_o instance_n either_o with_o their_o wit_n which_o never_o appear_v but_o in_o their_o simile_n and_o in_o interpret_n the_o prophet_n or_o with_o their_o charity_n which_o be_v never_o extend_v beyond_o their_o own_o party_n or_o with_o their_o modesty_n which_o be_v never_o visible_a but_o when_o they_o wink_v in_o the_o pulpit_n or_o with_o their_o sincerity_n which_o never_o appear_v but_o when_o they_o own_v themselves_o in_o their_o prayer_n to_o be_v a_o pack_n of_o the_o damn_a rogue_n in_o the_o world_n or_o with_o their_o learning_n which_o never_o go_v beyond_o a_o dutch_a system_n and_o a_o little_a heraldry_n or_o with_o their_o sobriety_n which_o be_v never_o admit_v to_o keep_v they_o company_n at_o their_o pious_a friday_n entertainment_n or_o with_o their_o loyalty_n which_o be_v ever_o show_v but_o by_o their_o promise_a to_o lend_v this_o king_n more_o money_n than_o they_o can_v raise_v and_o abuse_v the_o two_o last_o reign_v or_o last_o with_o their_o zeal_n against_o popery_n which_o be_v never_o to_o be_v prove_v but_o by_o their_o continual_a endeavour_n to_o undermine_v the_o establish_v church_n but_o let_v i_o conjure_v you_o dear_a tim_n to_o drop_v this_o nauseous_a fulsome_a subject_n for_o as_o i_o hope_v for_o mercy_n i_o be_o as_o weary_a of_o it_o as_o a_o presbyterian_a splitter_n of_o case_n be_v weary_a of_o a_o poor_a brother_n that_o constant_o come_v every_o sunday_n with_o his_o

observe_v that_o they_o pretend_v to_o have_v abundance_n of_o zeal_n for_o their_o present_a majesty_n so_o they_o do_v &_o if_o you_o will_v take_v their_o own_o word_n for_o it_o they_o will_v tell_v you_o that_o no_o body_n keep_v the_o fast_n and_o thanksgiving_n day_n with_o that_o devotion_n as_o themselves_o have_v do_v but_o for_o all_o this_o dear_a friend_n of_o i_o they_o be_v

the_o rogue_n and_o rascal_n in_o the_o world_n the_o reason_n be_v plain_a they_o will_v willing_o have_v his_o majesty_n serve_v by_o none_o but_o themselves_o and_o then_o they_o do_v question_n to_o reduce_v the_o french_a king_n and_o demolish_v popery_n in_o due_a time_n beside_o if_o all_o the_o church-of_a england-man_n have_v take_v the_o oath_n they_o have_v lose_v their_o dear_o
