acquiesce_v in_o especial_o in_o a_o case_n so_o clear_a as_o we_o when_o the_o prince_n exceed_v the_o boundary_n of_o his_o commission_n both_o from_o god_n and_o man_n endeavour_v the_o subversion_n of_o our_o law_n and_o religion_n the_o destruction_n of_o the_o good_a and_o the_o encouragement_n of_o the_o bad_a thing_n diametrical_o opposite_a to_o the_o end_n of_o magistracy_n and_o this_o i_o think_v enough_o to_o make_v it_o evident_a that_o the_o church_n for_o which_o you_o make_v sir_n john_n friend_n to_o have_v be_v a_o martyr_n and_o a_o sufferer_n be_v none_o of_o that_o church_n which_o be_v build_v upon_o the_o foundation_n of_o the_o prophet_n and_o apostle_n and_o that_o by_o consequence_n it_o be_v no_o sin_n to_o be_v a_o separatist_n from_o it_o paper_n though_o i_o have_v a_o perfect_a charity_n for_o people_n of_o all_o pr●fessions_n and_o do_v hearty_o wish_v well_o and_o will_v endeavour_v so_o to_o do_v to_o all_o my_o fellow_n subject_n of_o what_o persuasion_n so_o ever_o and_o indeed_o i_o have_v meet_v with_o a_o great_a deal_n of_o uprightness_n and_o sincerity_n among_o some_o people_n of_o very_o different_a opinion_n in_o religious_a matter_n and_o i_o hope_v and_o desire_n it_o may_v not_o be_v take_v as_o a_o uncharitable_a censure_n or_o undue_a reflection_n that_o i_o object_v to_o the_o legality_n of_o popish_a evidence_n be_v advise_v so_o to_o do_v for_o my_o better_a security_n upon_o the_o foundation_n of_o a_o statute_n law_n answer_n charity_n be_v better_a manifest_v by_o action_n than_o word_n and_o true_o gentleman_n you_o will_v have_v much_o ado_n to_o persuade_v the_o world_n that_o there_o can_v be_v any_o thing_n of_o charity_n in_o your_o design_n and_o sir_n john_n to_o involve_v your_o protestant_a brethren_n in_o three_o nation_n in_o blood_n and_o ruin_n and_o to_o endanger_v the_o protestant_a interest_n all_o over_o europe_n by_o countenance_v a_o french_a invasion_n and_o if_o it_o be_v not_o ignoble_a to_o rake_v into_o the_o action_n of_o the_o dead_a there_o be_v many_o of_o your_o martyr_n action_n which_o may_v be_v instance_a that_o favour_v nothing_o of_o perfect_a charity_n but_o the_o design_n of_o this_o part_n of_o the_o paper_n be_v obvious_a viz._n that_o you_o and_o your_o martyr_n may_v do_v all_o that_o you_o can_v to_o conciliate_v the_o good_a opinion_n of_o the_o papist_n who_o you_o and_o he_o be_v so_o very_o careful_a not_o to_o offend_v that_o he_o must_v die_v with_o a_o apology_n to_o they_o in_o his_o mouth_n but_o it_o seem_v it_o be_v not_o worth_a either_o of_o your_o while_n to_o make_v the_o least_o apology_n for_o the_o offence_n which_o he_o have_v give_v to_o god_n and_o the_o professor_n of_o the_o same_o religion_n with_o himself_o by_o conceal_v the_o design_n of_o the_o horrid_a assassination_n which_o his_o own_o conscience_n tell_v he_o be_v so_o great_a a_o crime_n that_o he_o be_v very_o careful_a of_o have_v himself_o not_o so_o much_o as_o think_v to_o be_v concern_v in_o it_o but_o this_o i_o suppose_v he_o think_v can_v be_v wash_v off_o by_o your_o cheat_a absolution_n and_o true_o it_o have_v be_v more_o for_o the_o credit_n of_o your_o cause_n to_o let_v this_o apology_n alone_o too_o and_o put_v it_o upon_o the_o same_o score_n for_o it_o only_o aggravate_v his_o own_o gild_n and_o that_o of_o your_o party_n for_o if_o he_o have_v be_v a_o man_n of_o any_o manner_n of_o conscience_n he_o can_v not_o have_v reflect_v so_o in_o open_a court_n upon_o the_o religion_n of_o a_o prince_n who_o restitution_n he_o esteem_v the_o cause_n of_o god_n and_o religion_n and_o if_o he_o do_v real_o believe_v what_o he_o say_v in_o his_o defence_n that_o papist_n think_v they_o merit_v heaven_n by_o destroy_v protestant_n his_o conscience_n must_v needs_o have_v tell_v he_o if_o he_o be_v real_o a_o protestant_n that_o it_o can_v not_o then_o be_v his_o duty_n to_o endeavour_v the_o restitution_n of_o such_o a_o prince_n who_o think_v such_o a_o work_n meritorious_a and_o have_v indeed_o act_v as_o if_o he_o do_v firm_o believe_v so_o both_o before_o and_o after_o his_o come_v to_o the_o throne_n which_o be_v certain_o inconsistent_a with_o the_o very_a end_n of_o government_n as_o well_o as_o with_o the_o coronation-oath_n by_o which_o he_o be_v swear_v to_o govern_v we_o but_o notwithstanding_o all_o the_o precaution_n you_o have_v take_v to_o have_v it_o think_v that_o those_o principle_n be_v only_o a_o uncharitable_a imputation_n upon_o the_o papist_n that_o character_n will_v cleave_v to_o they_o as_o be_v found_v upon_o better_a ground_n than_o your_o martyr_n assertion_n which_o consider_v in_o its_o self_n be_v indeed_o none_o at_o all_o so_o that_o his_o vindication_n of_o they_o be_v of_o as_o little_a weight_n as_o it_o be_v possible_a for_o the_o vindication_n of_o any_o man_n to_o be_v paper_n have_v own_a myself_o a_o member_n of_o the_o

to_o have_v give_v better_a satisfaction_n of_o his_o own_o repentance_n before_o he_o can_v reasonable_o suppose_v that_o his_o exhortation_n can_v have_v any_o weight_n upon_o other_o paper_n i_o
