of_o yourself_o and_o your_o order_n and_o most_o agreeable_a to_o the_o principle_n of_o your_o church_n four_o the_o last_o accusation_n of_o the_o heretic_n against_o the_o late_a king_n and_o

also_o be_v so_o much_o against_o the_o interest_n of_o the_o kingdom_n therefore_o it_o be_v observe_v by_o a_o old_a experience_a missionary_n that_o have_v stay_v long_o in_o england_n that_o this_o nation_n be_v to_o be_v reduce_v to_o the_o roman_n catholic_n religion_n by_o nothing_o but_o the_o sword_n and_o say_v he_o when_o the_o young_a missionary_n come_v first_o over_o they_o

a_o desolation_n that_o he_o have_v the_o great_a horror_n at_o it_o imaginable_a and_o hope_v that_o none_o of_o they_o will_v have_v such_o hard_a thought_n of_o he_o as_o to_o believe_v he_o capable_a of_o so_o much_o cruelty_n and_o barbarity_n even_o as_o hazael_n say_v to_o the_o prophet_n well_o then_o king_n james_z know_v well_o enough_o what_o it_o will_v cost_v and_o what_o must_v be_v do_v to_o bring_v in_o popery_n and_o yet_o popery_n he_o be_v resolve_v to_o bring_v in_o as_o i_o be_o sure_a every_o man_n in_o england_n believe_v two_o year_n since_o and_o every_o man_n must_v believe_v in_o spite_n of_o his_o heart_n that_o know_v the_o jesuit_n his_o absolute_a guide_n what_o excuse_v then_o can_v be_v make_v for_o so_o great_a cruelty_n intend_v it_o be_v the_o
