to_o enthrone_v the_o good_a old_a cause_n without_o those_o mighty_a engine_n of_o popular_a pamphlet_n and_o parliament_n and_o therefore_o pray_v proceed_v in_o your_o method_n of_o propagation_n for_o that_o be_v the_o utmost_a we_o can_v hope_v for_o in_o this_o age._n ph._n well_o then_o i_o consider_v that_o the_o cause_n can_v never_o be_v maintain_v by_o mere_a mechanic_n and_o shall_v we_o send_v our_o youth_n to_o university_n they_o will_v be_v teach_v obedience_n to_o statute_n and_o wear_v off_o the_o natural_a abhorrence_n of_o white_a linen_n and_o liturgy_n and_o thus_o be_v

the_o politic_n and_o divinity_n of_o geneva_n here_o they_o be_v teach_v the_o natural_a philosophy_n and_o all_o the_o liberal_a art_n and_o science_n of_o sedition_n and_o rebellion_n these_o

without_o seminary_n and_o therefore_o i_o suppose_v the_o design_n of_o your_o gymnasia_fw-la be_v borrow_v from_o douai_n and_o st._n omers_n which_o place_v my_o cardinal_n bentivoglio_n

ph._n beside_o these_o artillery-company_n i_o have_v a_o fly_a squadron_n of_o neutral_a clergy_n quarter_v within_o the_o line_n of_o the_o church_n of_o england_n and_o these_o by_o their_o

that_o church_n which_o you_o and_o i_o have_v labour_v to_o destroy_v you_o may_v remember_v that_o your_o flourish_a address_n to_o oliver_n in_o liii_o do_v help_n to_o make_v he_o as_o great_a as_o the_o mogul_n for_o those_o magnificent_a strain_n and_o title_n awe_v the_o people_n into_o as_o great_a a_o opinion_n of_o cromwell_n as_o if_o he_o have_v be_v brother_n to_o the_o sun_n

of_o conscience_n as_o to_o think_v themselves_o oblige_v by_o their_o promise_n to_o sacrifice_v both_o man_n and_o money_n in_o defence_n of_o the_o king_n but_o suppose_v we_o have_v dispatch_v
