reason_n to_o question_v that_o but_o i_o will_v glad_o understand_v how_o far_o matter_n be_v advance_v and_o what_o hopeful_a prospect_n you_o have_v of_o success_n in_o this_o grand_a affair_n but_o first_o let_v i_o know_v by_o what_o art_n you_o have_v render_v yourselves_o so_o popular_a for_o i_o believe_v the_o english_a have_v a_o worse_a opinion_n and_o a_o great_a abhorrence_n of_o i_o than_o they_o have_v of_o the_o devil_n for_o they_o be_v so_o civil_a to_o he_o as_o not_o to_o torment_v he_o before_o his_o time_n no_o not_o so_o lmuch_o as_o in_o effigy_n there_o be_v none_o of_o you_o will_v affront_v he_o so_o much_o as_o to_o burn_v his_o sign_n at_o the_o devil-tavern_n but_o look_v upon_o it_o with_o a_o great_a veneration_n than_o upon_o the_o sign_n of_o the_o

challenge_v the_o title_n as_o just_o as_o you_o i_o prevail_v upon_o the_o mind_n of_o man_n by_o just_a such_o method_n as_o your_o jesuit_n convert_v the_o chinese_n not_o by_o strength_n of_o

whether_o he_o sound_v true_a or_o false_a it_o pass_v for_o inspiration_n and_o the_o voice_n of_o god_n one_o successful_a stratagem_n to_o betray_v and_o confound_v the_o church_n be_v this_o by_o our_o sure_a patronatus_fw-la we_o post_v within_o the_o establish_v church_n as_o many_o unconform_a minister_n as_o we_o can_v with_o the_o popular_a title_n of_o sober_a and_o moderate_a man_n and_o your_o casuist_n and_o i_o have_v teach_v they_o salvo_n enough_o to_o dispense_v with_o canonical_a oath_n and_o subscription_n and_o by_o this_o art_n we_o have_v reduce_v many_o hundred_o

within_o the_o wall_n be_v worth_a a_o regiment_n without_o but_o we_o never_o present_v any_o high_a conformist_n except_o he_o be_v well_o qualify_v with_o little_a learning_n and_o great_a

to_o ruin_v our_o common_a enemy_n the_o church_n of_o england_n be_v to_o clamour_n against_o she_o with_o the_o loud_a cry_n of_o popery_n and_o though_o this_o church_n stand_v upon_o the_o old_a

especial_o in_o the_o fear_n and_o jealousy_n of_o popery_n there_o be_v a_o ancient_a law_n that_o look_v like_o nature_n and_o morality_n land_n i_o wish_v the_o parliament_n will_v repeal_n it_o and_o that_o be_v that_o man_n shall_v bow_v down_o and_o worship_n god_n when_o they_o come_v to_o address_v to_o he_o in_o their_o public_a devotion_n now_o if_o any_o high_a churchman_n of_o england_n when_o he_o enter_v a_o cathedral_n shall_v pay_v this_o homage_n of_o adoration_n if_o there_o be_v a_o candlestick_n or_o a_o eagle_n of_o brass_n in_o the_o choir_n i_o make_v the_o

that_o the_o bow_v that_o way_n be_v the_o superstitious_a humility_n or_o worship_v of_o angel_n which_o the_o apostle_n condemn_v i_o can_v make_v they_o believe_v without_o any_o further_a question_n that_o the_o sing_v of_o hymn_n and_o psalm_n according_a to_o the_o cathedral_n manner_n be_v a_o popish_a invention_n and_o point_v by_o antichrist_n and_o that_o christ_n and_o his_o
