reason_n to_o be_v afraid_a of_o this_o kind_n of_o persecution_n i_o mean_v of_o their_o tongue_n for_o i_o may_v say_v i_o have_v live_v among_o they_o without_o blame_n as_o may_v be_v conjecture_v from_o the_o considerable_a employment_n which_o i_o have_v have_v in_o the_o church_n of_o rome_n for_o their_o bishop_n never_o admit_v a_o person_n into_o their_o cathedral_n to_o preach_v unless_o they_o know_v he_o to_o be_v of_o a_o honest_a and_o good_a behaviour_n and_o the_o religious_a of_o that_o order_n of_o which_o i_o have_v make_v profession_n the_o carmelites_n which_o doubtless_o be_v one_o of_o the_o most_o exemplary_a of_o the_o romish_a church_n if_o these_o have_v not_o have_v a_o good_a opinion_n of_o i_o they_o will_v never_o have_v promote_v i_o to_o that_o degree_n of_o honour_n among_o they_o which_o i_o have_v hold_v have_v be_v three_o time_n the_o prior_n deputy_n in_o the_o same_o convent_n which_o office_n be_v give_v to_o none_o but_o to_o such_o as_o be_v very_o regular_a and_o exemplary_a in_o their_o life_n it_o be_v therefore_o needless_a that_o any_o person_n shall_v trouble_v himself_o with_o a_o inquiry_n for_o the_o place_n from_o whence_o i_o come_v and_o of_o my_o carriage_n while_o i_o have_v remain_v in_o the_o church_n of_o rome_n to_o discredit_v this_o little_a book_n i_o be_o not_o afraid_a in_o the_o least_o of_o any_o such_o
