let_v you_o more_o clear_o see_v before_o i_o bring_v my_o note_n of_o he_o to_o a_o period_n i_o will_v insist_v a_o little_a long_o upon_o so_o worthy_a a_o subject_a as_o he_o be_v and_o though_o i_o be_o not_o personal_o acquaint_v with_o he_o yet_o i_o be_o tell_v some_o people_n compare_v he_o to_o a_o kidnapper_n and_o the_o reason_n why_o they_o compare_v he_o to_o so_o unbeseeming_a a_o comparison_n be_v this_o because_o the_o kidnapper_n when_o he_o be_v about_o to_o snap_v up_o people_n for_o his_o purpose_n he_o be_v like_o the_o fisherman_n who_o lay_v out_o several_a fair_a and_o invite_a bait_n which_o tempt_v the_o poor_a innocent_a fish_n so_o that_o through_o the_o temptation_n thereof_o he_o give_v such_o a_o snap_n at_o the_o bait_n think_v or_o little_a suspect_v to_o be_v prejudice_v by_o that_o saib_a bait_n but_o poor_a creature_n there_o be_v a_o hook_n in_o the_o bait_n that_o as_o soon_o as_o ever_o the_o fish_n give_v a_o snap_n and_o a_o pull_v the_o say_a hook_n take_v hold_v in_o his_o jaw_n or_o throat_n so_o that_o the_o fisherman_n draw_v he_o to_o shore_n and_o take_v his_o hook_n out_o of_o he_o and_o put_v the_o fish_n into_o his_o basket_n these_o say_a resemblance_n of_o kidnap_v and_o fish_v in_o my_o think_v become_v very_o well_o captain_n elie_n and_o his_o jesuitical_a bait_n of_o draw_v tempt_a and_o lead_v poor_a people_n to_o prejury_n and_o subornation_n expect_v thereby_o to_o propagate_v the_o popish_a interest_n advance_v his_o own_o fortune_n and_o to_o seduce_v such_o as_o he_o take_v to_o temporal_a and_o spiritual_a misery_n but_o he_o be_v not_o the_o only_a subject_n of_o my_o discourse_n i_o do_v intend_v to_o desist_v speak_v any_o more_o here_o of_o he_o until_o he_o come_v into_o my_o

those_o my_o follow_a line_n that_o if_o he_o have_v but_o money_n enough_o as_o he_o expect_v that_o captain_n elie_n will_v procure_v for_o he_o i_o be_o certain_a he_o will_v allow_v the_o lady_n of_o honour_n a_o glass_n of_o the_o best_a wine_n a_o do_v of_o physic_n and_o a_o good_a alarm_n when_o they_o be_v drink_v of_o the_o wine_n which_o he_o think_v or_o at_o least_o expect_v he_o

to_o be_v able_a to_o keep_v a_o coach_n and_o six_o horse_n and_o likewise_o he_o expect_v to_o occasion_v the_o king_n evidence_n to_o be_v tread_v under_o foot_n and_o the_o parliament_n and_o

that_o if_o they_o can_v get_v the_o king_n evidence_n countermand_v and_o counterpoise_v and_o by_o the_o same_o get_v they_o invalidate_v all_o the_o neighbour_a prince_n and_o people_n in_o

he_o have_v another_o reserve_a aim_n in_o the_o purpose_n of_o his_o subornation_n as_o i_o shall_v let_v you_o see_v when_o it_o come_v to_o my_o purpose_n and_o in_o the_o interim_n i_o shall_v

and_o roundly_o into_o the_o cloak_n that_o it_o tear_v away_o and_o the_o rent_n be_v so_o wide_a and_o he_o be_v in_o company_n with_o his_o lady_n of_o honour_n who_o discover_v his_o nakedness_n and_o then_o cry_v away_o with_o he_o he_o be_v clap_v he_o have_v get_v no_o money_n let_v he_o come_v here_o no_o more_o and_o they_o also_o cry_v to_o he_o in_o a_o laughter_n and_o a_o

to_o another_o by_o reason_n of_o her_o converse_n with_o the_o people_n over_o who_o you_o think_v to_o spread_v the_o black_a cloak_n who_o also_o for_o some_o time_n you_o feed_v with_o fancy_n

a_o happy_a people_n both_o as_o to_o the_o state_n of_o their_o body_n and_o soul_n for_o they_o have_v get_v so_o deep_a into_o the_o mire_n of_o it_o that_o they_o can_v so_o soon_o be_v rid_v of_o

they_o will_v make_v himself_o a_o happy_a man_n and_o they_o a_o happy_a people_n as_o to_o the_o view_n of_o the_o world_n but_o not_o before_o god_n for_o it_o be_v say_v in_o scripture_n non_fw-la

to_o his_o two_o former_a confederate_n captain_n elie_n and_o crawley_n as_o he_o say_v to_o the_o woman_n when_o they_o behold_v his_o nakedness_n and_o discover_v his_o venus_n disease_n as_o he_o

he_o and_o his_o subject_n i_o can_v wish_v that_o his_o majesty_n can_v be_v rid_v of_o the_o daily_a trouble_n he_o his_o parliament_n and_o council_n be_v daily_o toxicate_v with_o by_o reason_n

and_o country_n now_o i_o do_v intend_v to_o let_v you_o understand_v something_o of_o the_o event_n of_o the_o proceed_n of_o these_o three_o person_n viz._n captain_n elie_n sympson_n tonge_n and_o john_n crawley_n which_o be_v this_o that_o after_o they_o bussle_v the_o king_n majesty_n and_o his_o most_o honourable_a privy_a council_n with_o their_o compose_a but_o ill_o ground_v and_o false_a contradiction_n of_o the_o realty_n of_o the_o popish_a plot_n and_o their_o bustle_a being_n so_o great_a as_o the_o noise_n of_o their_o barking_n be_v so_o both_o abominable_a and_o terrible_a as_o their_o howl_n occasion_v some_o other_o hellhound_n to_o follow_v they_o because_o as_o it_o be_v say_v bird_n of_o a_o feather_n flock_v together_o think_v to_o rouse_v up_o a_o dear_a to_o chase_v but_o instead_o of_o so_o do_v they_o be_v force_v to_o chase_v a_o fox_n and_o the_o fox_n be_v as_o his_o nature_n be_v the_o subtle_a of_o most_o beast_n after_o have_v all_o the_o day_n make_v they_o follow_v he_o at_o last_o when_o it_o grow_v late_a and_o the_o ride_v overwhelm_v with_o darkness_n therewithal_o the_o say_a fox_n understand_v full_a well_o his_o time_n and_o his_o place_n he_o whip_v down_o into_o his_o hole_n and_o the_o darkness_n so_o overwhelm_v the_o hunter_n and_o the_o hound_n stray_v from_o both_o their_o chase_n and_o trace_v so_o they_o be_v force_v to_o retire_v most_o shameful_o home_o to_o their_o several_a house_n this_o simile_n i_o make_v and_o thus_o apply_v the_o same_o in_o comparison_n of_o these_o three_o hunter_n that_o think_v to_o deceive_v several_a and_o especial_o the_o transitory_a pleasure_n of_o this_o world_n which_o by_o some_o critic_n author_n be_v compare_v to_o a_o fox_n which_o no_o man_n ever_o deceive_v neither_o the_o fox_n nor_o the_o world_n for_o in_o the_o first_o place_n though_o the_o fox_n be_v take_v by_o the_o force_n of_o many_o hound_n yet_o it_o be_v very_o well_o know_v that_o he_o be_v not_o

more_o than_o deceive_v it_o as_o i_o may_v refer_v myself_o to_o the_o experience_n of_o these_o three_o gentle-huntsman_n of_o who_o proceed_n i_o give_v you_o some_o account_n how_o they_o go_v about_o to_o chase_v themselves_o out_o of_o their_o way_n so_o that_o it_o be_v very_o difficult_a for_o they_o to_o find_v out_o the_o way_n again_o which_o i_o question_v if_o ever_o they_o find_v it_o any_o more_o and_o to_o hunt_v this_o subject_a call_v the_o world_n which_o most_o people_n call_v their_o main_a and_o great_a concern_v to_o covenant_n with_o it_o and_o also_o to_o forfeit_v

these_o three_o gentleman_n who_o travel_v hard_o for_o it_o for_o i_o be_o afraid_a that_o they_o run_v a_o dangerous_a hazard_n in_o hope_n to_o gain_v it_o and_o so_o to_o purchase_v themselves_o such_o mean_n in_o it_o as_o to_o make_v themselves_o merry_a with_o the_o pleasure_n and_o comfort_n of_o it_o but_o alas_o they_o be_v sad_o mistake_v with_o its_o subtle_a promise_n it_o give_v
