by_o argument_n from_o the_o rule_n of_o right_a reason_n and_o the_o ancient_a practice_n of_o christianity_n i_o begin_v with_o the_o former_a and_o observe_v that_o although_o the_o severity_n of_o our_o penal_a statute_n according_a to_o the_o bare_a letter_n of_o they_o general_o not_o distinguish_v between_o papist_n and_o roman_a catholic_n fall_v indifferent_o on_o both_o yet_o by_o the_o word_v of_o they_o in_o several_a place_n and_o by_o other_o circumstance_n it_o appear_v that_o they_o be_v intend_v against_o the_o abettor_n of_o undue_a authority_n in_o the_o pope_n and_o against_o no_o other_o for_o what_o appear_v in_o the_o word_v of_o the_o statute_n i_o shall_v instance_n only_o two_o viz._n 23_o eliz._n and_o 3_o jacobi_fw-la whereof_o the_o former_a namely_o that_o of_o queen_n elizabeth_n express_v the_o crime_n to_o be_v punish_v by_o the_o statute_n in_o these_o term_n a_o intent_n to_o withdraw_v subject_n from_o their_o natural_a obedience_n the_o

the_o withdraw_a subject_n from_o their_o natural_a obedience_n and_o move_v they_o to_o promise_v obedience_n to_o the_o pretend_a authority_n of_o the_o see_v of_o rome_n that_o the_o sanguinary_a law_n be_v intend_v against_o popery_n in_o this_o sense_n and_o no_o other_o it_o may_v further_o appear_v by_o the_o account_n i_o have_v give_v before_o where_o i_o brief_o set_v forth_o on_o what_o occasion_n they_o be_v make_v and_o in_o what_o manner_n they_o be_v execute_v it_o be_v evident_a that_o none_o ever_o suffer_v death_n as_o a_o papist_n allegiance_n who_o can_v be_v bring_v to_o take_v the_o oath_n of_o supremacy_n or_o allegiance_n now_o it_o be_v certain_a that_o those_o oath_n be_v primary_o design_v to_o be_v a_o suffient_fw-la test_n to_o distinguish_v papist_n

be_v not_o papist_n that_o by_o the_o oath_n of_o supremacy_n the_o king_n be_v make_v a_o spiritual_a head_n of_o the_o church_n but_o he_o that_o read_v the_o oath_n will_v find_v no_o such_o

to_o roman_a catholic_n it_o have_v be_v always_o say_v that_o they_o suffer_v not_o for_o religion_n but_o treason_n and_o this_o be_v a_o very_a plain_a and_o satisfactory_a answer_n while_o those_o only_o suffer_v who_o do_v those_o thing_n or_o hold_v those_o tenet_n which_o involve_v treason_n in_o they_o but_o if_o they_o who_o do_v no_o such_o thing_n and_o who_o renounce_v all_o such_o

to_o avoid_v the_o odium_n of_o this_o some_o of_o that_o communion_n in_o our_o age_n will_v persuade_v we_o that_o their_o suffering_n be_v not_o upon_o the_o account_n of_o religion_n and_o to_o
