state_n i_o may_v ask_v one_o question_n on_o the_o behalf_n of_o those_o reverend_a person_n against_o who_o every_o ass_n be_v now_o lift_v up_o his_o heel_n be_v our_o director_n sure_a that_o

union_n so_o much_o talk_v of_o by_o we_o and_o never_o so_o much_o as_o mention_v by_o the_o dissenter_n indeed_o sir_n the_o dissenter_n be_v much_o to_o blame_v if_o after_o so_o ample_a

the_o government_n unless_o the_o poor_a defective_a common-prayer_n be_v put_v into_o a_o state_n of_o perfection_n this_o church_n of_o england_n be_v certain_o under_o the_o dominion_n of_o the_o most_o unfortunate_a of_o all_o the_o planet_n for_o whoever_o miscarry_v she_o must_v bear_v the_o blame_v if_o a_o frigate_n be_v cast_v away_o the_o wind_n and_o the_o sea_n though_o subject_a to_o

our_o army_n unfit_a for_o action_n the_o church_n of_o england_n be_v the_o cause_n because_o she_o do_v not_o unite_v all_o protestant_n if_o a_o commissary_n victual_n not_o the_o camp_n sufficient_o and_o a_o french_a apothecary_n provide_v not_o proper_a drug_n o_o the_o lamentable_a division_n and_o distraction_n of_o the_o church_n and_o state_n and_o our_o stiff_a churchman_n will_v never_o come_v to_o a_o heal_a temper_n i_o have_v hear_v some_o learned_a man_n say_v that_o the_o primitive_a christian_n be_v in_o their_o time_n in_o the_o same_o office_n of_o blame-beating_a that_o we_o be_v now_o if_o the_o roman_a arm_n want_v success_n some_o oracle_n speak_v away_o with_o these_o atheistical_a christian_n if_o the_o year_n be_v unfruitful_a hang_v up_o the_o christian_n let_v the_o dissenter_n or_o the_o moderate_a man_n say_v what_o they_o please_v of_o bishop_n and_o liturgy_n and_o ceremony_n this_o one_o thing_n at_o least_o we_o may_v be_v allow_v to_o have_v common_a with_o the_o primitive_a church_n i_o have_v almost_o fill_v up_o my_o sheet_n though_o i_o write_v in_o short_a hand_n and_o therefore_o can_v now_o give_v you_o my_o reason_n at_o length_n why_o i_o think_v this_o a_o unfit_a time_n for_o alteration_n if_o any_o at_o all_o be_v to_o be_v think_v of_o i_o will_v only_o hint_n they_o to_o you_o in_o the_o first_o place_n the_o dissenter_n do_v not_o seem_v to_o be_v in_o any_o disposition_n to_o a_o accommodation_n have_v never_o make_v any_o proposal_n either_o to_o the_o commissioner_n or_o convocation_n 2._o the_o condition_n they_o be_v in_o at_o present_a by_o the_o act_n of_o toleration_n raise_v their_o expectation_n too_o high_a to_o be_v satisfy_v with_o any_o reasonable_a term_n 3._o the_o abolish_n of_o episcopacy_n by_o their_o brethren_n of_o scotland_n may_v encourage_v they_o here_o to_o think_v of_o such_o matter_n as_o can_v never_o be_v the_o fruit_n of_o a_o treaty_n and_o perhaps_o to_o dream_v of_o a_o second_o conquest_n 4._o their_o insolence_n in_o all_o place_n since_o this_o revolution_n declare_v they_o to_o be_v above_o the_o humble_a dispensation_n of_o a_o amicable_a composure_n 5._o the_o great_a man_n that_o influence_n they_o will_v always_o think_v it_o their_o interest_n to_o keep_v they_o separate_v from_o the_o church_n for_o so_o they_o will_v be_v most_o for_o their_o turn_n and_o therefore_o will_v never_o suffer_v they_o to_o join_v with_o we_o or_o shall_v they_o come_v in_o will_v always_o keep_v they_o up_o as_o a_o separate_a party_n within_o the_o church_n 6._o several_a of_o the_o most_o considerable_a among_o they_o have_v declare_v they_o will_v never_o think_v of_o treat_v unless_o their_o order_n be_v allow_v and_o then_o too_o they_o will_v insist_v upon_o the_o point_n of_o episcopacy_n 7._o the_o church_n of_o england_n man_n do_v not_o seem_v to_o be_v in_o a_o disposition_n for_o alter_v at_o this_o time_n for_o
