when_o the_o silken_a strumpet_n perhaps_o have_v ride_v in_o coach_n but_o there_o be_v no_o harlot_n now_o a_o day_n but_o those_o that_o be_v poor_a for_o she_o that_o have_v any_o friend_n at_o

deserve_v no_o better_a shall_v i_o now_o speak_v of_o spiritual_a whoredom_n which_o the_o scripture_n do_v call_v idolatry_n i_o dare_v scarce_o speak_v against_o it_o for_o offend_v of_o papist_n that_o be_v never_o more_o dangerous_a than_o they_o be_v at_o this_o hour_n i_o remember_v that_o many_o year_n since_o i_o see_v a_o few_o print_a line_n entitle_v the_o blazon_n of_o a_o papist_n write_v by_o some_o heravit_fw-la of_o arm_n that_o have_v pretty_o contrive_v a_o papist_n in_o the_o compass_n of_o armoury_n he_o first_o make_v description_n of_o a_o papist_n rampant_a a_o

a_o papist_n where_o he_o be_v of_o force_n and_o ability_n to_o show_v his_o tyranny_n witness_v the_o murder_n the_o massacre_n the_o slaughter_n the_o poison_n the_o stab_a the_o burn_a the_o

we_o be_v now_o come_v to_o a_o papist_n dormant_n a_o sly_a companion_n subtle_a as_o a_o fox_n he_o sleep_v with_o open_a eye_n yet_o sometime_o seem_v to_o wink_v he_o look_v and_o pry_v into_o

he_o will_v show_v himself_o tractable_a to_o common_a wealth_n prescription_n and_o with_o this_o show_n of_o obedience_n to_o law_n he_o do_v the_o pope_n more_o service_n than_o twenty_o other_o that_o be_v more_o resist_v the_o last_o we_o will_v speak_v of_o be_v the_o papist_n pendant_n indeed_o a_o papist_n pendant_n be_v in_o his_o prime_a perfection_n a_o papist_n pendant_n be_v so_o

be_v pendant_n and_o he_o never_o come_v to_o so_o high_a preferment_n but_o by_o the_o pope_n especial_a blessing_n but_o if_o law_n be_v as_o well_o execute_v as_o they_o be_v enact_v popery_n can_v not_o so_o spread_v itself_o as_o it_o do_v neither_o in_o england_n nor_o in_o ireland_n nor_o it_o can_v not_o be_v but_o that_o these_o devilish_a practice_n of_o poison_n of_o pistole_n of_o stab_a knife_n and_o of_o gunne-pouder_n train_n will_v be_v important_a motive_n to_o stir_v up_o the_o consideration_n of_o those_o that_o be_v in_o authority_n to_o spy_v out_o these_o mask_a creature_n that_o have_v tong_n for_o their_o prince_n but_o do_v reserve_v their_o heart_n for_o their_o pope_n but_o alas_o good_a virtue_n be_v thou_o become_v so_o faint_a heart_a that_o thou_o will_v not_o discover_v thyself_o that_o be_v thus_o injury_v i_o wis_v thou_o have_v never_o more_o need_v to_o look_v about_o thou_o i_o will_v i_o can_v wish_v thou_o for_o a_o time_n to_o put_v

to_o offend_v why_o shall_v not_o virtue_n take_v courage_n to_o correct_v but_o i_o know_v it_o be_v but_o loss_n of_o time_n to_o speak_v against_o popery_n and_o as_o little_a it_o will_v prevail_v to_o speak_v against_o any_o manner_n of_o sin_n yet_o we_o want_v no_o positive_a law_n whereby_o to_o bridle_v abuse_n but_o the_o example_n of_o a_o good_a life_n in_o those_o that_o shall_v minister_v the_o due_a execution_n of_o those_o law_n will_v be_v more_o effectual_a than_o the_o law_n themselves_o because_o the_o action_n of_o those_o that_o be_v place_v in_o authority_n be_v

there_o can_v never_o be_v good_a discipline_n among_o inferiors_n where_o there_o be_v but_o bad_a example_n in_o superior_n but_o where_o superior_n have_v be_v more_o ready_a to_o support_v sin_n then_o to_o punish_v sin_n and_o when_o a_o nobleman_n livery_n be_v countenance_n good_a enough_o to_o keep_v a_o drunkard_n from_o the_o stock_n a_o adulterer_n from_o the_o cart_n and_o sometime_o

that_o it_o be_v hold_v for_o a_o maxim_n among_o a_o great_a number_n of_o young_a wanton_n that_o to_o surrender_v themselves_o to_o the_o lust_n of_o such_o man_n as_o be_v in_o great_a place_n &_o
