myself_o under_o a_o necessity_n of_o clear_v at_o least_o brief_o three_o thing_n and_o i_o will_v do_v it_o as_o brief_o as_o i_o can_v the_o first_o be_v that_o those_o that_o be_v both_o zealous_a and_o jealous_a for_o liberty_n and_o property_n be_v more_o in_o number_n than_o those_o that_o be_v for_o the_o strain_n and_o stretch_n of_o prerogative_n i_o find_v there_o be_v a_o vast_a and_o unlucky_a mistake_n in_o the_o computation_n of_o some_o people_n and_o that_o by_o reason_n that_o they_o do_v not_o distinguish_v between_o the_o state_n and_o religious_a whig_n i_o allow_v the_o fanatic_a whig_n or_o those_o that_o refuse_v to_o come_v to_o our_o communion_n be_v not_o perhaps_o the_o twenty_o man_n in_o england_n but_o there_o be_v very_o great_a number_n of_o man_n who_o never_o go_v former_o nor_o do_v now_o go_v even_o by_o reason_n of_o their_o principle_n to_o any_o other_o church_n but_o the_o church_n of_o england_n there_o be_v likewise_o many_o other_o who_o be_v not_o at_o all_o biggotted_a to_o any_o particular_a form_n of_o church_n worship_n who_o yet_o most_o if_o not_o altogether_o go_v to_o the_o church_n of_o england_n and_o yet_o both_o the_o one_o and_o the_o other_o of_o these_o be_v as_o much_o or_o perhaps_o more_o nice_o whig_n in_o civil_n than_o be_v the_o fanatic_n though_o not_o so_o general_o call_v so_o so_o that_o there_o be_v church_n of_o england_n and_o latitudinarian_a or_o as_o the_o scotch_a call_v they_o erastian_n as_o well_o as_o fanatic_a whig_n now_o let_v we_o consider_v what_o interest_n all_o these_o three_o sort_n of_o whig_n have_v in_o our_o affair_n what_o influence_n they_o have_v over_o they_o and_o you_o will_v find_v by_o matter_n of_o fact_n that_o these_o many_o year_n last_o pass_v they_o all_o join_v upon_o a_o civil_a bottom_n have_v all_o along_o be_v too_o hard_o for_o that_o which_o be_v the_o church_n of_o england_n as_o it_o be_v contra_fw-la distinguish_v to_o the_o whig_n they_o be_v fatal_o so_o in_o king_n charles_n the_o first_o be_v time_n but_o to_o bring_v thing_n within_o all_o our_o memory_n and_o observation_n the_o three_o last_o parliament_n in_o king_n charles_n the_o second_v reign_v be_v not_o a_o improper_a season_n to_o calculate_v their_o interest_n and_o influence_n for_o than_o they_o choose_v before_o any_o illegal_a or_o unwarrantable_a trick_n have_v be_v play_v by_o either_o side_n with_o charter_n and_o if_o the_o nation_n be_v inflame_v by_o a_o popish_a plot_n i_o be_o sure_a the_o court_n lean_v whole_o to_o the_o high_a prerogative_n church_n of_o england_n then_o you_o see_v that_o the_o bill_n of_o exclusion_n though_o it_o be_v a_o excessive_a and_o exotic_a rant_n rather_o than_o a_o natural_a effect_n or_o production_n of_o whiggism_n be_v carry_v in_o the_o house_n of_o commons_o and_o that_o though_o almost_o all_o the_o member_n be_v charch_v goer_n but_o i_o will_v show_v you_o yet_o by_o a_o late_a instance_n that_o state_n whiggism_n run_v through_o this_o nation_n all_o those_o that_o be_v for_o this_o government_n act_n upon_o that_o principle_n and_o lay_v aside_o the_o passive_a obedience_n and_o prerogative_n notion_n of_o the_o high_a church_n of_o england_n man_n notwithstanding_o that_o they_o keep_v up_o the_o episcopal_a order_n the_o pomp_n ceremony_n and_o discipline_n of_o the_o

not_o know_v how_o to_o name_v their_o own_o action_n the_o second_o thing_n that_o seem_v necessary_a for_o i_o to_o clear_v be_v that_o it_o be_v necessary_a to_o give_v a_o liberty_n of_o
