true_a and_o good_a news_n from_o brussels_n contain_v a_o sovereign_a antidote_n against_o the_o poison_n and_o calumny_n of_o the_o present_a time_n in_o a_o letter_n from_o a_o person_n of_o

have_v always_o esteem_v he_o one_o of_o his_o fair_a enemy_n insomuch_o as_o it_o will_v have_v trouble_v many_o here_o who_o never_o see_v he_o if_o he_o shall_v public_o have_v bear_v witness_n to_o so_o mechanic_n a_o slander_n as_o that_o of_o see_v his_o majesty_n at_o mass_n true_o the_o devil_n have_v sound_a out_o a_o ill_a father_n for_o such_o a_o brat_n and_o therefore_o i_o hope_v it_o will_v now_o lie_v at_o his_o own_o door_n it_o be_v very_o unlikely_a that_o a_o person_n of_o his_o honour_n shall_v be_v guilty_a of_o so_o foul_a or_o a_o man_n of_o his_o wit_n of_o so_o

he_o into_o spanish_a town_n and_o popish_a church_n i_o read_v that_o part_n of_o your_o letter_n to_o the_o king_n and_o can_v not_o but_o observe_v his_o smile_n it_o be_v so_o grave_a and_o full_a of_o resentment_n for_o nothing_o you_o know_v be_v more_o natural_a to_o he_o then_o dumb_a rhetoric_n at_o present_a he_o say_v little_a but_o three_o hour_n after_o make_v many_o reflection_n both_o witty_a and_o serious_a he_o say_v his_o enemy_n be_v now_o put_v to_o hard_a shift_n and_o he_o take_v it_o for_o a_o good_a omen_n that_o already_o for_o want_v of_o better_a weapon_n they_o

it_o since_o for_o more_o than_o ten_o year_n past_a whilst_o they_o be_v confident_a of_o their_o own_o power_n they_o have_v use_v no_o argument_n against_o he_o but_o bullet_n and_o be_v much_o

for_o his_o profession_n of_o popery_n be_v in_o love_n with_o banishment_n and_o have_v no_o doubt_n therein_o consult_v with_o his_o dear_a friend_n mr._n scot_n and_o marchamont_n needham_n that_o indeed_o it_o be_v not_o the_o part_n of_o fair_a enemy_n to_o take_v such_o advantage_n of_o their_o own_o wrong_n by_o first_o drive_v he_o to_o seek_v protection_n from_o papist_n and_o then_o upon_o no_o other_o account_n imaginable_a report_v he_o a_o papist_n that_o yet_o he_o submit_v with_o all_o patience_n to_o the_o good_a will_n of_o god_n since_o he_o see_v he_o must_v taste_v of_o

if_o i_o think_v it_o needful_a or_o that_o his_o conversation_n and_o what_o he_o have_v do_v and_o suffer_v upon_o these_o account_n be_v not_o better_a evidence_n for_o he_o than_o any_o thing_n
