A56284	Scotlands holy vvar a discourse truly, and plainly remonstrating, how the Scots out of a corrupt pretended zeal to the covenant have made the same scandalous, and odious to all good men, and how by religious pretexts of saving the peace of Great Brittain they have irreligiously involved us all in a most pernitious warre / by H.P. ...

virtue_n in_o it_o why_o do_v they_o brandish_v it_o so_o ludicrous_o only_a to_o dazzle_v our_o weak_a eye_n the_o next_o objection_n of_o the_o scot_n be_v that_o we_o have_v not_o only_o

be_v only_o towards_o tender_a conscience_n where_o man_n comport_v themselves_o civil_o and_o inoffensive_o towards_o their_o neighbour_n and_o attempt_v to_o innovate_v nothing_o in_o the_o church_n for_o perturb_v of_o religion_n and_o even_o in_o this_o also_o we_o havenot_v extend_v our_o indulgence_n so_o far_o as_o the_o unite_a state_n of_o the_o netherlands_o have_v and_o divers_a other_o protestant_a prince_n in_o germany_n the_o truth_n be_v we_o do_v not_o find_v such_o danger_n in_o erastianism_n independentism_n anabaptism_n round-headism_n etc._n etc._n as_o our_o rigid_a

how_o can_v any_o man_n imagine_v but_o that_o strange_a disorder_n must_v needs_o follow_v and_o abound_v in_o a_o church_n so_o desert_v when_o the_o dresser_n of_o the_o vineyard_n do_v not_o
