from_o thence_o can_v be_v infer_v without_o a_o violent_a or_o at_o least_o strange_a construction_n and_o for_o my_o part_n i_o do_v not_o at_o all_o know_v or_o suspect_v that_o any_o one_o true_a

a_o bush_n it_o will_v be_v a_o even_a wager_n whether_o you_o start_v a_o jesuit_n or_o a_o fanatic_a and_o in_o this_o case_n there_o be_v not_o much_o difference_n between_o they_o where_o the_o jesuit_n play_v the_o fanatic_a or_o the_o fanatic_a the_o jesuit_n and_o then_o say_v if_o this_o main_a assertion_n be_v true_a there_o be_v no_o way_n of_o find_v out_o the_o papist_n but_o by_o

in_o his_o first_o edition_n of_o this_o pamphlet_n and_o all_o this_o upon_o your_o credit_n as_o he_o tell_v you_o but_o if_o this_o author_n shall_v fall_v under_o this_o misfortune_n that_o neither_o you_o doctor_n nor_o any_o sober_a wise_a man_n shall_v approve_v of_o his_o abortive_a birth_n from_o his_o false_a conception_n how_o can_v he_o make_v the_o nation_n a_o compensation_n for_o these_o abuse_n as_o without_o all_o peradventure_o the_o case_n will_v appear_v to_o every_o one_o that_o consider_v impartial_o the_o plot_n itself_o that_o it_o be_v not_o a_o inextricable_a

which_o only_o and_o single_o appertain_v to_o the_o magistracy_n and_o i_o think_v he_o have_v cause_n to_o rejoice_v that_o he_o be_v not_o question_v for_o a_o seditious_a pamphletteer_n for_o that_o his_o work_n in_o such_o a_o time_n as_o this_o be_v which_o call_v for_o our_o union_n not_o division_n he_o say_v some_o call_v his_o book_n jesuitical_a for_o my_o part_n i_o think_v there_o
