excellent_a credit_n for_o the_o establish_v ministry_n under_o who_o conduct_n and_o teach_v they_o live_v cav_n i_o confess_v if_o all_o the_o soul_n in_o england_n be_v under_o the_o actual_a

and_o indeed_o i_o do_v believe_v that_o most_o of_o those_o delude_a people_n have_v no_o more_o skill_n in_o primitive_a christianity_n than_o the_o chineses_n have_v in_o mathematics_n and_o how_o

such_o a_o peculiar_a envy_n to_o the_o church_n of_o england_n be_v this_o by_o our_o episcopacy_n and_o priesthood_n by_o our_o public_a confession_n of_o the_o ancient_a creed_n by_o our_o
