it_o seem_v be_v the_o light_n and_o inconsiderate_a man_n who_o take_v up_o a_o opinion_n of_o this_o weight_n with_o haste_n and_o precipitation_n and_o without_o due_a regard_n have_v to_o the_o

the_o time_n and_o give_v i_o leave_v to_o tell_v you_o that_o when_o man_n change_v their_o doctrine_n with_o season_n and_o opportunity_n it_o be_v a_o shrewd_a suspicion_n that_o the_o time_n make_v the_o doctrine_n and_o if_o you_o will_v derive_v their_o pedigree_n they_o may_v say_v to_o the_o revolution_n thou_o be_v our_o father_n however_o such_o it_o seem_v they_o be_v and_o what_o be_v to_o be_v say_v to_o defend_v they_o why_o as_o to_o that_o you_o tell_v we_o it_o may_v be_v reply_v that_o no_o man_n be_v forbid_v to_o examine_v his_o principle_n to_o examine_v his_o principle_n no_o doubt_n of_o it_o but_o pray_v sir_n what_o do_v you_o mean_v by_o examine_v one_o will_v think_v that_o when_o man_n preach_v sermon_n write_v book_n treat_v of_o the_o question_n ex_fw-la professo_fw-la that_o they_o either_o have_v or_o at_o least_o ought_v to_o have_v examine_v they_o upon_o my_o word_n you_o make_v rare_a man_n of_o they_o and_o fit_a to_o be_v trust_v with_o our_o conscience_n and_o this_o be_v a_o glorious_a defence_n indeed_o that_o from_o year_n to_o year_n from_o sermon_n to_o sermon_n from_o book_n to_o book_n they_o inculcate_v these_o principle_n and_o fasten_v they_o upon_o the_o conscience_n of_o man_n as_o eternal_a and_o immutable_a doctrine_n and_o yet_o never_o examine_v they_o themselves_o sir_n this_o be_v a_o lamentable_a case_n and_o you_o be_v very_o hard_o put_v to_o it_o when_o you_o have_v no_o other_o way_n to_o defend_v they_o but_o what_o at_o one_o dash_v blast_n all_o their_o authority_n and_o discredit_v every_o thing_n they_o have_v say_v since_o the_o revolution_n as_o well_o as_o before_o for_o i_o crave_v leave_n to_o tell_v you_o that_o mere_a swear_v will_v never_o mend_v a_o man_n character_n and_o therefore_o you_o call_v upon_o they_o to_o much_o purpose_n to_o lay_v hold_n on_o all_o occasion_n to_o commend_v the_o present_a government_n when_o at_o the_o same_o time_n you_o have_v take_v extraordinary_a care_n that_o their_o word_n shall_v go_v for_o just_a nothing_o for_o if_o the_o world_n believe_v you_o i_o be_o certain_a they_o neither_o will_v nor_o can_v believe_v they_o but_o for_o all_o that_o they_o must_v be_v defend_v and_o you_o yet_o add_v that_o my_o whole_a charge_n amount_v to_o no_o more_o than_o this_o that_o some_o of_o the_o clergy_n be_v former_o blind_a but_o now_o they_o see_n well!_o if_o my_o charge_n amount_v to_o no_o more_o you_o you_o see_v amount_v to_o a_o great_a deal_n more_o and_o you_o must_v answer_v for_o it_o as_o well_o as_o you_o can_v however_o methinks_v this_o be_v a_o pretty_a way_n to_o defend_v they_o from_o inconsistency_n for_o what_o you_o call_v blindness_n and_o see_v i_o call_v own_v and_o renounce_v and_o so_o do_v all_o the_o world_n beside_o but_o you_o may_v call_v it_o what_o you_o please_v your_o metaphor_n mean_v the_o same_o thing_n and_o the_o plain_a english_a be_v they_o have_v forsake_v their_o former_a principle_n and_o that_o be_v the_o inconsistency_n i_o charge_v they_o with_o which_o you_o frank_o own_o and_o abundant_o prove_v so_o that_o as_o far_o as_o i_o can_v see_v we_o be_v perfect_o agree_v and_o there_o need_v no_o more_o word_n about_o it_o ii_o the_o next_o thing_n be_v the_o distinction_n
character_n they_o design_v for_o another_o prince_n will_v i_o doubt_v much_o better_o become_v one_o near_a home_n in_o the_o first_o place_n they_o tell_v we_o this_o mighty_a prince_n usurp_v upon_o the_o liberty_n of_o europe_n but_o methinks_v they_o may_v let_v usurpation_n alone_o it_o be_v a_o very_a rank_a word_n and_o they_o all_o smell_v strong_o of_o it_o for_o what_o have_v this_o mighty_a prince_n do_v to_o merit_v this_o glorious_a title_n why_o if_o you_o consult_v fact_n he_o have_v be_v a_o little_a uncivil_a to_o the_o german_a and_o spaniard_n and_o have_v take_v some_o town_n from_o they_o but_o then_o if_o it_o be_v usurpation_n to_o take_v a_o few_o town_n what_o be_v it_o i_o pray_v to_o take_v three_o whole_a kingdom_n this_o i_o suppose_v may_v deserve_v some_o supereminent_a character_n and_o if_o these_o gentleman_n will_v try_v their_o faculty_n they_o have_v epithet_n enough_o ready_a to_o dignify_v and_o distinguish_v it_o the_o french_a king_n have_v no_o father_n to_o usurp_v upon_o and_o therefore_o his_o case_n be_v not_o altogether_o so_o meritorious_a beside_o he_o have_v offer_v to_o restore_v the_o town_n upon_o honourable_a condition_n which_o as_o yet_o i_o do_v not_o hear_v the_o other_o be_v dispose_v to_o do_v so_o that_o it_o seem_v this_o great_a leviathan_n in_o this_o point_n have_v not_o a_o equal_a indeed_o but_o it_o be_v because_o there_o be_v one_o in_o the_o world_n much_o great_a and_o as_o great_a as_o he_o be_v he_o must_v be_v force_v to_o come_v behind_o he_o by_o many_o degree_n and_o therefore_o i_o must_v needs_o subscribe_v to_o dr._n tillotson_n when_o he_o tell_v we_o that_o a_o great_a than_o he_o be_v here_o for_o whatsoever_o it_o may_v be_v with_o respect_n to_o other_o virtue_n it_o be_v most_o certain_a that_o he_o far_o exceed_v he_o in_o the_o point_n of_o usurpation_n it_o must_v be_v confess_v indeed_o that_o these_o gentleman_n have_v give_v a_o tolerable_a account_n of_o usurpation_n and_o have_v stigmatise_v it_o too_o in_o their_o way_n but_o then_o they_o have_v mistake_v the_o the_o subject_a by_o puzzle_v their_o brain_n to_o find_v he_o in_o foreign_a country_n when_o at_o the_o same_o they_o have_v he_o in_o their_o eye_n as_o if_o the_o vice_n of_o traveller_n have_v be_v transplant_v to_o the_o pulpit_n to_o talk_v of_o every_o trifle_n abroad_o and_o neglect_v thing_n great_a and_o more_o remarkable_a at_o our_o own_o door_n our_o own_o country_n be_v fruitful_a enough_o and_o sure_o in_o these_o day_n we_o need_v not_o go_v to_o france_n to_o look_v for_o a_o usurper_n but_o perhaps_o it_o be_v not_o usurpation_n in_o general_a that_o these_o man_n be_v offend_v with_o and_o it_o be_v plain_a they_o love_v it_o as_o their_o eye_n and_o have_v strain_v their_o wit_n their_o pen_n and_o their_o conscience_n to_o procure_v and_o support_v it_o but_o usurpation_n limit_v to_o a_o particular_a case_n as_o they_o call_v it_o usurp_a upon_o the_o liberty_n of_o europe_n and_o this_o the_o same_o reverend_a doctor_n call_v the_o liberty_n of_o mankind_n and_o all_o the_o rest_n have_v it_o over_o and_o over_o so_o that_o it_o seem_v let_v the_o people_n have_v liberty_n enough_o and_o then_o the_o usurp_a upon_o father_n and_o throne_n be_v a_o very_a innocent_a nay_o a_o very_a just_a and_o honourable_a undertake_n by_o this_o doctrine_n if_o the_o french_a king_n have_v borrow_v half_o the_o province_n of_o germany_n from_o the_o empire_n and_o catalonia_n and_o flanders_n from_o the_o king_n of_o spain_n and_o at_o the_o same_o time_n have_v preserve_v the_o people_n legal_a liberty_n or_o give_v they_o great_a he_o may_v have_v be_v reconcile_v to_o these_o gentleman_n good_a grace_n and_o have_v be_v call_v a_o saviour_n and_o deliverer_n too_o whereas_o i_o always_o think_v that_o so_o far_o as_o one_o prince_n seize_v and_o detain_v the_o right_n of_o another_o he_o be_v so_o far_o a_o usurper_n and_o so_o far_o guilty_a of_o injustice_n and_o whosoever_o join_v with_o he_o in_o the_o acquire_n or_o support_v he_o in_o the_o possession_n be_v involve_v in_o the_o gild_n what_o use_v soever_o he_o make_v of_o his_o power_n but_o it_o seem_v if_o the_o people_n can_v make_v advantage_n of_o usurpation_n and_o share_v in_o the_o spoil_n it_o be_v very_o holy_a and_o glorious_a and_o there_o be_v no_o gild_n stick_v to_o a_o fat_a morsel_n if_o these_o gentleman_n may_v but_o have_v their_o part_n of_o it_o so_o that_o it_o be_v plain_a by_o all_o their_o harangue_n of_o liberty_n they_o mean_v their_o liberty_n of_o be_v bishop_n and_o dean_n the_o liberty_n of_o fatten_v and_o warm_v themselves_o under_o the_o shadow_n of_o usurpation_n but_o if_o this_o be_v the_o

the_o next_o place_n he_o tell_v you_o the_o great_a fault_n i_o know_v he_o have_v be_v that_o some_o envious_a and_o ambitious_a man_n can_v not_o bear_v his_o greatness_n which_o he_o himself_o never_o court_v nay_o which_o he_o industrious_o avoid_v this_o you_o must_v take_v for_o a_o commendation_n of_o his_o singular_a modesty_n join_v with_o a_o aspersion_n of_o envy_n upon_o some_o

will_v follow_v that_o those_o who_o industrious_o court_n preferment_n be_v the_o ambitious_a man_n who_o envy_v his_o greatness_n and_o by_o this_o mark_v the_o doctor_n if_o he_o please_v may_v
