that_o in_o a_o parish_n where_o i_o have_v live_v several_a year_n and_o take_v no_o little_a pain_n preach_v and_o catechise_v constant_o every_o lord_n day_n and_o sometime_o on_o other_o day_n

as_o i_o have_v reason_n to_o believe_v that_o i_o have_v lose_v all_o my_o labour_n of_o love_n with_o many_o of_o they_o and_o see_v they_o in_o the_o ready_a way_n to_o lose_v their_o own_o soul_n

and_o have_v do_v so_o i_o beileve_v if_o it_o have_v not_o come_v into_o my_o thought_n that_o my_o seem_a unconcernedness_n may_v be_v interpret_v to_o my_o prejudice_n and_o make_v a_o argument_n against_o i_o that_o i_o be_v indeed_o very_o much_o incline_v towards_o popery_n have_v therefore_o change_v my_o resolution_n and_o begin_v to_o unbosom_v to_o myself_o to_o some_o of_o my_o
