tell-truth's_a answer_n to_o tell-troth's_a letter_n to_o the_o right_n honourable_a the_o earl_n of_o shaftesbury_n in_o vindication_n of_o his_o lordship_n by_o as_o downright_a a_o englishman_n as_o himself_o without_o scandalous_a reflection_n sir_n i_o have_v late_o see_v and_o peruse_v a_o letter_n in_o print_n to_o the_o right_n honourable_a the_o earl_n of_o shaftesbury_n from_o one_o that_o style_v himself_o tom_n telltruth_n a_o downright_a englishman_n i_o must_v confess_v he_o begin_v well_o and_o express_v himself_o in_o very_o good_a word_n to_o the_o due_a honour_n of_o that_o true_o noble_a lord_n as_o own_v he_o to_o be_v as_o indeed_o he_o be_v a_o stout_a asserter_n of_o the_o protestant_a religion_n and_o interest_n and_o tell_v we_o that_o monarchy_n and_o the_o protestant_a religion_n do_v suffer_v in_o respect_n of_o the_o present_a design_n of_o papist_n and_o common_a wealthsman_n but_o what_o he_o mean_v by_o couple_v good_a commonwealths-man_n and_o papist_n together_o i_o can_v not_o understand_v till_o read_v his_o letter_n a_o little_a far_o i_o quick_o find_v and_o discover_v that_o he_o be_v a_o wolf_n in_o sheep_n clothing_n and_o it_o will_v be_v strange_a if_o i_o do_v not_o find_v he_o to_o be_v a_o jesuit_n or_o one_o as_o bad_a before_o the_o end_n of_o this_o letter_n yet_o very_o honest_o he_o in_o the_o next_o word_n tell_v my_o lord_n that_o ruin_n and_o desolation_n confusion_n and_o every_o evil_a work_n will_v come_v swift_a upon_o we_o nothing_o more_o sure_a if_o some_o speedy_a remedy_n be_v not_o instant_o propose_v by_o the_o wisdom_n of_o the_o great_a council_n of_o this_o nation_n by_o that_o great_a council_n i_o suppose_v he_o mean_v the_o parliament_n and_o therein_o he_o write_v honest_o and_o true_o for_o i_o will_v give_v the_o devil_n his_o due_n but_o it_o be_v to_o be_v fear_v if_o they_o do_v not_o sit_v speedy_o it_o will_v be_v too_o late_o to_o prevent_v that_o ruin_n and_o desolation_n he_o true_o foretells_a be_v come_v upon_o we_o though_o i_o believe_v he_o write_v ironical_o and_o in_o a_o jeer_a way_n in_o the_o next_o place_n he_o come_v with_o many_o word_n though_o to_o little_a or_o no_o purpose_n from_o 41_o to_o the_o happy_a restauration_n of_o the_o king_n in_o which_o glorious_a work_n i_o be_o persuade_v he_o be_v no_o way_n instrumental_a for_o his_o majesty_n be_v thanks_o be_v to_o god_n wonderful_o restore_v to_o his_o royal_a throne_n by_o god_n providence_n and_o some_o worthy_a instrument_n the_o earl_n of_o shaftesbury_n be_v one_o eminent_a in_o that_o great_a work_n then_o he_o will_v make_v a_o parallel_n between_o 41_o to_o this_o present_a time_n concern_v the_o person_n of_o the_o late_a king_n church_n and_o government_n and_o that_o they_o be_v the_o result_v of_o such_o pernicious_a counsel_n and_o design_n as_o be_v now_o hatch_n by_o these_o son_n of_o belial_n to_o the_o present_a disturbance_n of_o our_o church_n and_o kingdom_n if_o there_o be_v son_n of_o belial_n as_o you_o say_v and_o i_o believe_v there_o be_v in_o 41_o i_o mean_v the_o jesuit_n and_o the_o pope_n emissary_n as_o dr._n oates_n that_o worthy_a person_n and_o ever_o to_o be_v esteem_v have_v make_v appear_v there_o be_v those_o i_o suppose_v be_v general_o dead_a go_v to_o purgatory_n or_o somewhere_o else_o but_o you_o say_v there_o be_v now_o son_n of_o belial_n that_o study_v all_o the_o mischief_n they_o can_v to_o king_n church_n and_o state_n i_o suppose_v you_o write_v so_o confident_o of_o it_o must_v be_v well_o acquaint_v with_o they_o and_o be_v of_o their_o council_n and_o therefore_o you_o will_v do_v good_a service_n to_o discover_v they_o which_o i_o will_v do_v do_v i_o know_v they_o if_o you_o will_v not_o you_o must_v give_v i_o leave_v to_o tell_v you_o in_o downright_a english_a that_o you_o be_v either_o a_o jesuit_n of_o the_o church_n of_o rome_n or_o a_o mask_v protestant_a in_o the_o church_n of_o england_n for_o i_o be_o a_o true_a downright_a englishman_n and_o protestant_n than_o i_o find_v you_o be_v in_o the_o next_o place_n he_o tell_v we_o that_o in_o forty_o and_o after_o the_o papist_n see_v our_o church_n so_o well_o guard_v with_o purity_n of_o doctrine_n and_o faith_n that_o be_v true_a behold_v what_o emissary_n be_v send_v out_o and_o with_o what_o clothing_n to_o deceive_v what_o clothing_n indeed_o the_o puritan_n be_v the_o man_n he_o name_n and_o three_o person_n that_o be_v dead_a and_o then_o tell_v we_o that_o archbishop_n laud_n must_v be_v the_o first_o call_v into_o question_n and_o butcher_v for_o be_v a_o papist_n or_o popish_o incline_v this_o i_o deny_v but_o must_v needs_o say_v that_o archbishop_n laud_n be_v a_o eminent_a assertor_n of_o the_o right_n of_o the_o church_n and_o a_o true_a protestant_n as_o his_o learned_a book_n against_o fisher_n the_o jesuit_n do_v declare_v for_o i_o know_v bishop_n laud_n i_o think_v better_o than_o you_o do_v but_o by_o your_o leave_n sir_n as_o old_a as_o you_o be_v bishop_n laud_v suffer_v for_o other_o matter_n as_o the_o article_n that_o be_v against_o he_o will_v inform_v you_o then_o he_o come_v to_o tell_v we_o that_o the_o rabble_n in_o those_o time_n cry_v down_o evil_a counsellor_n their_o design_n be_v to_o bring_v in_o popery_n and_o destroy_v liberty_n ay_o liberty_n of_o the_o subject_a in_o a_o jeer_a scoff_a way_n sir_n know_v it_o be_v our_o birthright_n and_o you_o be_v a_o unworthy_a man_n if_o you_o be_v against_o it_o and_o ought_v never_o to_o enjoy_v it_o but_o live_v and_o die_v a_o slave_n and_o then_o he_o mention_n ship-money_n a_o huge_a burden_n be_v against_o magna_fw-la charta_fw-la so_o it_o be_v though_o but_o small_a in_o itself_o as_o also_o all_o other_o monopoly_n in_o those_o day_n contrive_v by_o minister_n which_o be_v conscious_a of_o their_o ill_a desert_n to_o keep_v off_o the_o sit_v of_o the_o parliament_n which_o they_o know_v will_v call_v they_o to_o account_v for_o above_o ten_o year_n in_o which_o time_n have_v the_o parliament_n sit_v it_o will_v no_o doubt_n have_v supply_v his_o majesty_n with_o much_o more_o in_o a_o legal_a way_n and_o the_o subject_n will_v have_v be_v ready_a and_o willing_a to_o have_v pay_v it_o but_o do_v you_o not_o remember_v you_o old_a englishman_n as_o you_o style_v yourself_o in_o the_o latter_a part_n of_o your_o letter_n what_o become_v of_o those_o person_n that_o keep_v off_o the_o king_n from_o his_o parliament_n for_o so_o long_a a_o time_n if_o you_o do_v not_o i_o do_v i_o wish_v we_o have_v not_o some_o such_o person_n now_o adays_o if_o we_o have_v they_o must_v look_v for_o the_o same_o success_n as_o they_o have_v then_o in_o the_o end_n a_o king_n of_o
