they_o and_o his_o controversy_n be_v against_o they_o and_o all_o that_o take_v their_o part_n for_o here_o be_v many_o young_a scholar_n late_o come_v over_o into_o jreland_n young_a priest_n send_v from_o oxford_n and_o cambridg_n and_o these_o young_a priest_n the_o committee_n of_o priest_n sit_v at_o dublin_n have_v approve_v of_o they_o here_o they_o come_v and_o challenge_v the_o ten_o part_n of_o our_o good_n they_o say_v be_v now_o their_o own_o and_o where_o they_o can_v find_v a_o old_a ruin_a mass-house_n than_o they_o get_v a_o order_n for_o the_o repair_n of_o it_o and_o if_o any_o for_o conscience_n sake_n shall_v refuse_v pay_v towards_o the_o mend_n of_o the_o pope_n old_a house_n than_o the_o evil_a justice_n of_o the_o peace_n which_o the_o land_n be_v full_a of_o

be_v instance_v in_o the_o nation_n now_o when_o this_o young_a priest_n have_v get_v his_o mass-house_n finish_v than_o he_o have_v three_o or_o four_o parish_n lay_v together_o to_o maintain_v himself_o with_o the_o ten_o thereof_o he_o care_v not_o now_o he_o have_v get_v four_o or_o five_o parish_n perhaps_o not_o four_o protestant_a family_n in_o they_o all_o which_o tithe_n former_o use_v to_o serve_v four_o or_o five_o popish_a priest_n very_o well_o will_v now_o scarce_o serve_v this_o young_a protestant_a priest_n which_o make_v the_o papist_n to_o wonder_v what_o great_a

never_o like_a to_o convince_v the_o papist_n with_o sound_a doctrine_n their_o life_n and_o conversation_n be_v so_o bad_a that_o the_o papist_n behold_v what_o devourer_n they_o be_v that_o one_o of_o they_o must_v have_v as_o much_o as_o four_o of_o they_o so_o judge_v you_o the_o wickedness_n of_o these_o young_a priest_n be_v so_o great_a that_o the_o papist_n now_o abhor_v to_o come_v at_o

that_o their_o priest_n shall_v be_v such_o great_a eater_n and_o have_v such_o great_a sum_n of_o money_n to_o bring_v they_o over_o when_o many_o poor_a family_n in_o england_n be_v like_o to_o
