and_o some_o of_o the_o precede_a page_n he_o make_v a_o catalogue_n of_o the_o persbyterians_n suffering_n and_o by_o what_o i_o can_v understand_v think_v it_o allowable_a to_o deal_v just_o so_o

it_o be_v not_o a_o fanatic_a yet_o i_o think_v the_o episcopalian_o as_o he_o call_v they_o deserve_v no_o such_o usage_n because_o the_o fanatic_n be_v guilty_a every_o day_n of_o rebellion_n and_o

punish_v such_o great_a offender_n who_o do_v disturb_v the_o peace_n and_o government_n of_o the_o nation_n methinks_v can_v be_v no_o crime_n at_o all_o and_o their_o suffering_n be_v for_o do_v ill_a they_o shall_v be_v ashamed_a to_o glory_v in_o they_o or_o to_o think_v that_o by_o turn_v they_o ought_v to_o punish_v the_o church_n and_o as_o to_o the_o suffering_n of_o the_o episcopal_a church_n which_o he_o so_o confident_o contradict_v and_o say_v that_o the_o author_n can_v instance_n the_o person_n place_n and_o time_n he_o walk_v upon_o a_o false_a supposition_n for_o there_o be_v a_o clergyman_n not_o many_o day_n ago_o with_o i_o upon_o the_o royal_a exchange_n who_o come_v from_o galloway_n in_o scotland_n who_o say_v that_o he_o will_v swear_v it_o before_o the_o king_n and_o council_n and_o prove_v it_o by_o several_a witness_n that_o all_o be_v true_a that_o that_o ingenious_a and_o charitable_a gentleman_n write_v and_o that_o there_o be_v much_o more_o

six_o or_o seven_o year_n ago_o there_o be_v one_o mr._n kirk_n a_o minister_n in_o the_o west_n who_o tell_v i_o that_o these_o fanatic_n be_v so_o furious_a that_o they_o do_v first_o rob_v a_o
