A65878	The popish informer reprehended for his false information against the Quakers meeting in reply to ... An answer to a seditious libel, as he most falsly terms the late innocent declaration from the people of God, called, Quakers, against all seditious conventicles, &c. (wherein their innocency is cleared, and herein vindicated) : unto which is annexed, a brief recital of some accusations cast upon the said people, by one H. Thorndike, one of the prebends of Westminster, in his book entituled, A discourse of the forbearance, or the penalties which a due reformation requires.	Whitehead, George, 1636?-1723.	1670 (1670)	Wing W1946; ESTC R20124	15,096	24

last_a will_n must_v of_o necessity_n take_v place_n reply_v this_o be_v also_o false_a as_o it_o be_v intend_v against_o we_o call_v quaker_n and_o no_o less_o than_o a_o popish_a accusation_n cast_v upon_o we_o this_o be_v the_o very_a phrase_n of_o papist_n against_o we_o as_o call_v the_o spirit_n of_o christ_n by_o which_o we_o be_v lead_v a_o private_a spirit_n whereas_o indeed_o it_o be_v the_o universal_a spirit_n which_o convince_v the_o world_n of_o sin_n and_o lead_v the_o true_a believer_n into_o all_o truth_n and_o in_o this_o universal_a spirit_n we_o worship_v god_n and_o have_v good_a will_n to_o all_o man_n preb._n the_o quaker_n follow_v everyone_o their_o own_o spirit_n therefore_o be_v the_o more_o contemptible_a reply_v this_o also_o be_v a_o false_a and_o contemptible_a accusation_n cast_v upon_o we_o the_o same_o with_o the_o former_a for_o we_o prefer_v the_o spirit_n of_o god_n and_o its_o leading_n and_o not_o our_o own_o preb._n certain_o do_v they_o see_v that_o they_o can_v be_v reconcile_v but_o as_o so_o many_o runnagadoe_n they_o will_v bethink_v themselves_o before_o they_o go_v on_o in_o their_o madness_n reply_v envious_a man_n be_v

be_v reconcile_v and_o redeem_v from_o folly_n and_o madness_n by_o which_o grace_n we_o be_v teach_v to_o deny_v ungodliness_n and_o worldly_a lust_n and_o to_o live_v sober_o righteous_o and_o godly_a in_o this_o present_a evil_a world_n preb._n this_o their_o position_n be_v not_o reconcileable_a to_o civil_a trust_n always_o obliege_v they_o to_o the_o most_o desperate_a act_n of_o

or_o ever_o bring_v forth_o act_n of_o treason_n or_o violence_n to_o our_o country_n we_o charge_v it_o upon_o he_o as_o a_o most_o malicious_a and_o envious_a instigation_n against_o we_o preb._n it_o can_v be_v beyond_o the_o merit_n of_o their_o madness_n that_o they_o be_v make_v servi_n penae_fw-la by_o law_n as_o the_o roman_n law_n call_v it_o that_o be_v that_o they_o be_v transport_v to_o work_v in_o the_o plantation_n the_o law_n be_v to_o provide_v for_o such_o people_n rep._n here_o be_v still_o more_o rail_a and_o instigation_n to_o cruelty_n and_o persecution_n no_o doubt_n

will_v have_v cruel_a to_o bring_v we_o under_o servitude_n and_o vassalage_n in_o foreign_a plantation_n whereas_o many_o thousand_o of_o conscientious_a dissenter_n both_o quaker_n and_o other_o
