the_o true_a protestant_n and_o their_o great_a enemy_n for_o it_o be_v against_o we_o that_o all_o these_o malicious_a plot_n be_v level_v and_o they_o have_v only_o set_v you_o up_o as_o tool_n and_o instrument_n to_o complete_a their_o design_n for_o alas_o there_o be_v hardly_o one_o among_o all_o your_o party_n have_v write_v so_o judicious_o and_o rational_o against_o the_o church_n of_o rome_n as_o to_o deserve_v either_o a_o learned_a papist_n read_v or_o answer_n and_o now_o must_v our_o bishop_n doctor_n and_o divine_n be_v the_o only_a champion_n for_o the_o protestant_a religion_n against_o the_o romanist_n and_o yet_o must_v their_o hearer_n and_o follower_n be_v brand_v with_o the_o ignominious_a name_n of_o half_n protestant_n church_n papist_n and_o protestant_n in_o masquerade_n for_o shame_n forbear_v these_o unchristian_a slander_n or_o else_o all_o foreign_a protestant_n will_v say_v that_o you_o want_v both_o manner_n and_o modesty_n or_o which_o be_v worse_o brain_n and_o reason_n go_v on_o if_o you_o please_v with_o your_o trade_n of_o calumniate_a but_o thus_o plain_a we_o will_v be_v with_o you_o to_o acquaint_v you_o that_o our_o eye_n be_v so_o open_a as_o to_o see_v you_o use_v one_o way_n and_o the_o papist_n use_v another_o way_n to_o destroy_v and_o ruin_n the_o church_n of_o england_n with_o its_o protestant_a professor_n and_o we_o declare_v that_o from_o our_o knowledge_n of_o you_o both_o we_o expect_v no_o quarter_n or_o mercy_n from_o either_o of_o you_o for_o the_o church_n of_o england_n man_n have_v already_o endure_v two_o persecution_n the_o one_o of_o fire_n in_o the_o reign_n of_o queen_n mary_n the_o other_o of_o the_o sword_n in_o our_o late_a unnatural_a war_n when_o man_n of_o your_o own_o kidney_n plunder_v sequester_v imprison_v hang_v and_o behead_v many_o thousand_o for_o no_o other_o crime_n but_o that_o they_o be_v loyal_a subject_n and_o queen_n elizabeth_n protestant_n and_o now_o we_o be_v expect_v to_o fall_v under_o a_o three_o persecution_n but_o whether_o it_o will_v come_v from_o the_o papist_n or_o you_o we_o can_v as_o yet_o so_o easy_o discern_v last_o because_o you_o so_o arrogant_o call_v yourselves_o the_o protestant_n and_o the_o true_a protestant_n and_o so_o scoff_o call_v we_o the_o half_a protestant_n and_o church_n papist_n and_o protestant_n in_o masquerade_n we_o therefore_o send_v you_o this_o challenge_n go_v if_o you_o dare_v with_o we_o into_o westminster-hall_n to_o the_o assize_n and_o quarter-session_n before_o the_o judge_n and_o justice_n of_o the_o peace_n and_o there_o if_o you_o dare_v take_v with_o we_o the_o oath_n of_o allegiance_n and_o supremacy_n renounce_v with_o we_o the_o doctrine_n of_o transubstantiation_n and_o the_o solemn_a

of_o petition_n which_o late_o go_v in_o procession_n and_o shall_v your_o boast_a multitude_n of_o subscriber_n be_v bring_v to_o this_o touchstone_n we_o know_v that_o three_o part_n of_o five_o will_v run_v a_o great_a danger_n of_o be_v convict_v for_o recusant_n by_o law_n for_o many_o of_o you_o who_o proud_o call_v yourselves_o the_o true_a protestant_n will_v as_o stiff_o deny_v the_o do_n of_o these_o thing_n as_o the_o rank_a papist_n in_o england_n in_o love_n therefore_o i_o desire_v you_o to_o refrain_v from_o the_o villify_n we_o with_o the_o filthy_a character_n of_o protestant_n in_o masquerade_n and_o church_n papist_n since_o that_o we_o have_v be_v so_o kind_a to_o you_o for_o many_o year_n as_o not_o to_o put_v you_o upon_o this_o trial_n which_o we_o know_v will_v be_v as_o ungrateful_a and_o prejudicial_a to_o you_o as_o any_o papist_n and_o if_o you_o can_v out_o of_o modesty_n and_o charity_n yet_o out_o of_o interest_n learn_v to_o be_v more_o sober_a and_o moderate_a to_o your_o fellow_n native_n and_o protestant_n brethren_n and_o do_v not_o calumniate_v the_o honest_a churchman_n of_o england_n who_o pray_v for_o you_o and_o love_v you_o better_o than_o you_o do_v yourselves_o and_o will_v be_v glad_a to_o have_v you_o to_o join_v with_o they_o in_o all_o lawful_a and_o justifiable_a way_n for_o the_o overthrow_n of_o all_o popish_a plot_n and_o the_o preservation_n of_o that_o protestant_a religion_n which_o be_v establish_v by_o law_n and_o now_o let_v all_o the_o world_n judge_n whether_o we_o or_o you_o be_v half-protestants_a and_o protestant_n in_o masquerade_n since_o that_o we_o will_v abide_v by_o those_o legal_a trial_n and_o touchstone_n which_o be_v the_o national_a discrimination_n between_o

you_o be_v but_o papist_n in_o a_o protestant_a disguise_n finis_fw-la
