A94165	An anatomy of Lievt. Col. John Lilburn's spirit and pamphlets. Or, A vindication of these two honorable patriots Oliver Cromwel, Ld Governor of Ireland, and Sir Arthur Haslerig, Knight baronet, from the unworthy and false aspersions by him cast on them in two libels; the one intituled, An impeachment of high treason against Oliver Cromwel, &c. The other, A preparative to a hue and cry against Sir Arthur Haslerig: wherein the said Lilburn is demonstratively proved to be a common lyar, and unworthy of civil converse.

the_o title_n i_o be_v much_o amaze_v the_o accusation_n be_v so_o high_a and_o affirmation_n so_o positive_a and_o the_o language_n so_o terrible_a that_o i_o begin_v to_o reflect_v on_o the_o
