animadversion_n upon_o a_o paper_n entitle_v the_o speech_n of_o the_o late_a lord_n russel_n etc._n etc._n the_o word_n of_o die_a person_n be_v apt_a to_o give_v the_o deep_a impression_n upon_o the_o mind_n of_o the_o live_n and_o though_o possible_o there_o be_v no_o point_n in_o which_o i_o be_o more_o tender_a than_o in_o tread_v upon_o the_o memory_n of_o such_o who_o be_v out_o of_o the_o capacity_n of_o make_v their_o own_o defence_n yet_o resolve_v to_o comport_v myself_o with_o all_o decency_n which_o i_o will_v do_v if_o the_o person_n be_v live_v i_o think_v it_o a_o necessary_a duty_n to_o endeavour_v to_o hinder_v the_o spread_a of_o that_o contagion_n which_o have_v prove_v so_o fatal_a to_o the_o pretend_a author_n of_o this_o speech_n and_o i_o fear_v will_v prove_v so_o t●●●●●rs_n if_o they_o be_v not_o charitable_o undeceive_v and_o true_o if_o the_o dissenter_n who_o do_v so_o greedy_o swallow_v down_o all_o that_o be_v say_v in_o that_o paper_n as_o if_o the_o suppose_a author_n be_v a_o martyr_n and_o the_o word_n as_o true_a as_o gospel_n do_v not_o open_v their_o eye_n to_o see_v the_o wondrous_a contradiction_n which_o providence_n have_v so_o visible_o oppose_v to_o those_o insinuation_n my_o fear_n for_o they_o be_v extraordinary_a that_o they_o be_v harden_v to_o their_o own_o destruction_n and_o let_v they_o be_v never_o so_o angry_a i_o will_v do_v all_o i_o can_v to_o prevent_v the_o mischief_n they_o will_v certain_o pull_v upon_o their_o own_o head_n whilst_o they_o prepare_v it_o for_o other_o i_o confess_v i_o have_v the_o utmost_a difficulty_n to_o believe_v this_o speech_n to_o be_v the_o lord_n russel_n and_o can_v but_o suspect_v the_o finger_n of_o job_n to_o be_v in_o it_o and_o my_o reason_n be_v because_o there_o be_v so_o much_o panegyric_n as_o be_v not_o at_o all_o consistent_a either_o with_o the_o modesty_n or_o humility_n of_o a_o person_n bear_v of_o worthy_a good_a parent_n and_o who_o have_v have_v the_o advantage_n of_o a_o religious_a education_n as_o it_o be_v there_o express_v for_o he_o can_v not_o then_o miss_v of_o the_o divine_a precept_n of_o the_o wise_a of_o mere_a mortal_a man_n let_v another_o man_n praise_v thou_o and_o not_o thy_o own_o li_n the_o office_n of_o make_v inventory_n of_o the_o virtue_n as_o well_o as_o good_n of_o the_o decease_a and_o the_o care_n of_o embalm_v their_o memory_n as_o well_o as_o body_n have_v ever_o be_v commit_v to_o the_o discretion_n of_o their_o friend_n who_o may_v without_o vanity_n or_o ostentation_n say_v those_o thing_n which_o will_v no_o way_n become_v themselves_o and_o since_o that_o unfortunate_a lord_n tell_v we_o he_o can_v never_o consent_v to_o do_v a_o base_a thing_n i_o think_v it_o be_v a_o service_n to_o vindicate_v he_o from_o the_o most_o indecent_a and_o abject_a of_o all_o folly_n the_o blazon_a himself_o and_o proclaim_v his_o own_o praise_n which_o be_v at_o the_o least_o one_o three_o part_n of_o that_o sheet_n of_o paper_n but_o to_o let_v pass_v the_o panegyric_n as_o the_o most_o innocent_a though_o not_o most_o wise_a i_o shall_v only_o give_v they_o this_o remark_n that_o whoever_o be_v the_o penman_n of_o that_o paper_n have_v not_o do_v it_o without_o a_o most_o injurious_a design_n of_o insinuate_v into_o the_o head_n of_o the_o intoxicated_a rabble_n such_o a_o poison_n as_o may_v turn_v they_o round_o since_o the_o natural_a and_o easy_a inference_n from_o thence_o be_v that_o this_o gentleman_n be_v a_o person_n of_o those_o excellency_n and_o innocent_a as_o he_o averr_v of_o the_o crime_n for_o which_o he_o die_v the_o loss_n be_v the_o great_a his_o case_n the_o hard_a and_o the_o injustice_n do_v he_o so_o much_o the_o worse_o and_o we_o be_v not_o unacquainted_a how_o far_o ill_a man_n carry_v on_o their_o reflection_n to_o the_o disparagement_n of_o the_o justice_n both_o of_o god_n and_o man_n and_o to_o run_v the_o wild_a mobile_n into_o the_o utmost_a frenzy_n of_o extravagance_n against_o and_o detestation_n of_o the_o government_n and_o their_o governor_n i_o shall_v not_o insist_v upon_o some_o expression_n which_o seem_v next_o to_o equivocation_n as_o his_o live_n and_o die_v of_o the_o reform_a religion_n a_o true_a and_o sincere_a protestant_n and_o in_o the_o communion_n of_o the_o church_n of_o england_n and_o many_o suchlike_a word_n so_o ambiguous_a that_o all_o the_o several_a sect_n will_v pretend_v to_o a_o interest_n in_o he_o and_o though_o the_o scandal_n of_o suffer_v for_o high-treason_n be_v not_o very_o reputable_a for_o any_o sort_n of_o man_n yet_o i_o be_o glad_a for_o the_o sake_n of_o the_o loyal_a church_n of_o england_n that_o he_o do_v not_o say_v he_o be_v of_o the_o reform_a church_n of_o england_n as_o by_o law_n establish_v which_o teach_v all_o her_o true_a child_n not_o only_o not_o to_o conspire_v or_o act_v treason_n upon_o any_o pretence_n whatsoever_o but_o not_o so_o much_o as_o to_o curse_v the_o king_n in_o a_o thought_n in_o their_o safe_a retirement_n from_o discovery_n or_o danger_n even_o in_o their_o bedchamber_n that_o which_o i_o will_v chief_o lay_v my_o stress_n upon_o be_v the_o obviate_a some_o thing_n which_o be_v of_o malicious_a and_o dangerous_a consequence_n not_o only_o to_o the_o government_n but_o to_o the_o dissenter_n from_o it_o who_o i_o fear_v may_v for_o want_n of_o his_o give_a glory_n to_o god_n as_o he_o ought_v become_v more_o obstinate_a in_o persist_v in_o the_o belief_n of_o their_o mistake_n which_o without_o repentance_n will_v certain_o prove_v fatal_a to_o they_o possible_o in_o this_o world_n but_o certain_o in_o the_o next_o and_o first_o i_o observe_v that_o the_o great_a scope_n and_o drift_n of_o the_o speech_n be_v to_o persuade_v foolish_a people_n that_o they_o be_v in_o the_o utmost_a danger_n of_o popery_n as_o particular_o p._n 2._o i_o do_v believe_v and_o do_v still_o say_v he_o that_o

my_o lord_n russel_n speech_n which_o affirm_v to_o the_o contrary_a it_o be_v not_o only_o good_a manner_n to_o believe_v the_o king_n who_o be_v as_o a_o angel_n of_o god_n rather_o than_o all_o the_o malicious_a speech_n of_o man_n to_o the_o contrary_a but_o i_o do_v aver_v that_o whoever_o give_v credit_n to_o this_o calumny_n against_o the_o king_n avow_a declaration_n the_o know_a rule_n
