27_o if_o any_o think_v otherwise_o of_o you_o but_o still_o remember_v that_o even_o you_o who_o now_o in_o that_o respect_n so_o much_o boast_v and_o exalt_v yourself_o above_o your_o brethren_n tell_v they_o that_o 484._o god_n in_o justice_n have_v put_v they_o down_o do_v also_o say_v when_o you_o think_v you_o may_v do_v it_o safe_o that_o you_o be_v satisfy_v in_o two_o thing_n first_o that_o i_o god_n in_o justice_n have_v put_v down_o the_o former_a governor_n mean_v the_o king_n and_o his_o party_n for_o their_o persecution_n and_o scorn_v of_o piety_n second_o that_o you_o

suppose_v to_o be_v conscientious_o loyal_a now_o and_o the_o least_o you_o can_v expect_v be_v neither_o to_o be_v believe_v nor_o trust_v i_o have_v do_v sir_n with_o my_o defence_n of_o this_o
