A40899	The Lord Cravens case stated; and the impostor dethron'd by way of reply to Captain George Bishop, a grand Quaker in Bristoll. Wherein is briefly hinted, the rottenness of the Quakers conversion, and perfection, in general, exemplified in this busie bishop; in special instanced in his practises against the estate of the Lord Craven, life of Mr. Love. By occasion whereof, this truth is asserted, viz. if we may judge of the conscience, honesty, and perfection of Quakers in general, by this man in particular, a man may be as vile a person, as any under heaven, and yet a perfect Quaker.	Farmer, Ralph.; Bishop, George, d. 1668. aut	1660 (1660)	Wing F442; ESTC R218269	94,789	137

friend_n that_o in_o regard_n most_o of_o the_o inhabitant_n near_o and_o about_o the_o college_n be_v person_n of_o another_o judgement_n than_o myself_o in_o civil_a matter_n i_o shall_v have_v little_a converse_n or_o comfort_n among_o they_o but_o rather_o the_o contrary_a nay_o some_o do_v suggest_v to_o i_o that_o my_o settlement_n there_o be_v procure_v by_o some_o who_o bear_v i_o no_o

other_o reason_n be_v that_o go_v so_o far_o out_o of_o the_o city_n i_o shall_v not_o have_v any_o opportunity_n of_o any_o church_n communion_n and_o christian_a fellowship_n with_o any_o considerable_a number_n of_o which_o i_o be_v convince_v to_o be_v a_o duty_n although_o i_o be_v then_o unwilling_a to_o undergo_v the_o burden_n of_o a_o pastor_n and_o indeed_o consider_v that_o some_o honest-hearted_a christian_n in_o thomas_n parish_n with_o who_o i_o have_v there_o communion_n do_v still_o desire_v it_o and_o hope_v that_o divers_a of_o nicholas_n have_v former_o be_v

but_o as_o for_o the_o advantage_n in_o remove_v from_o poor_a thomas_n to_o rich_a nicholas_n as_o the_o calumniator_n phrase_n it_o let_v he_o and_o the_o world_n know_v that_o upon_o these_o ground_n i_o remove_v from_o the_o rich_a college_n to_o poor_a nicholas_n nor_o be_v it_o the_o poverty_n of_o thomas_n though_o poor_a enough_o that_o make_v i_o leave_v they_o nor_o be_v it_o or_o can_v it_o be_v filthy_a lucre_n or_o sordid_a covetousness_n that_o draw_v i_o to_o nicholas_n which_o can_v by_o no_o reasonable_a man_n be_v imagine_v will_v amount_v to_o what_o be_v settle_v upon_o i_o at_o the_o college_n and_o since_o i_o must_v boast_v but_o it_o be_v to_o secure_v the_o credit_n of_o my_o ministry_n that_o it_o suffer_v not_o damage_n in_o any_o thing_n i_o will_v do_v it_o a_o little_a further_o have_v good_a witness_n of_o the_o truth_n on_o it_o after_o i_o have_v consent_v to_o come_v to_o nicholas_n and_o come_v to_o give_v they_o a_o meeting_n at_o their_o vestry_n although_o i_o know_v that_o with_o much_o difficulty_n they_o raise_v what_o some_o of_o they_o have_v engage_v unto_o by_o bond_n to_o m._n jessop_n and_o which_o as_o i_o have_v

i_o tell_v they_o i_o will_v not_o make_v a_o bargain_n for_o preach_v the_o gospel_n but_o that_o i_o will_v do_v my_o duty_n and_o leave_v they_o to_o do_v they_o and_o how_o rich_o it_o have_v be_v perform_v by_o they_o i_o speak_v not_o of_o all_o i_o be_o ashamed_a to_o mention_v sure_a not_o beyond_o poor_a thomas_n nor_o so_o much_o by_o two_o part_n in_o three_o which_o m._n jessop_n now_o

they_o i_o envy_v no_o man_n gain_n or_o preferment_n nor_o will_v the_o inhabitant_n of_o nicholas_n say_v i_o contend_v with_o they_o in_o that_o matter_n although_o i_o have_v cause_n enough_o to_o
