that_o the_o end_n of_o the_o war_n will_v have_v put_v a_o period_n to_o their_o misery_n that_o the_o protestant_a prince_n and_o the_o state_n and_o all_o those_o who_o can_v either_o by_o the_o

their_o own_o concern_v but_o neglect_v they_o he_o tell_v they_o that_o one_o must_v not_o measure_v the_o conduct_n of_o a_o affair_n by_o the_o event_n but_o by_o the_o integrity_n and_o industry_n of_o the_o person_n employ_v in_o it_o if_o when_o thus_o qualify_v they_o do_v not_o speed_v they_o be_v not_o to_o be_v blame_v for_o it_o but_o rather_o we_o ought_v to_o be_v thankful_a for_o

do_v plain_o discover_v that_o popery_n be_v in_o this_o particular_a worse_o than_o the_o heathen_a religion_n and_o that_o they_o have_v outdo_v the_o pagan_a emperor_n and_o even_o the_o freity_n of_o the_o wild_a beast_n in_o the_o amphitheatre_n the_o principal_a end_n of_o this_o discourse_n be_v first_o to_o acquaint_v all_o those_o who_o be_v grow_v weary_a of_o their_o long_a exile_n may_v have_v a_o mind_n to_o return_v into_o france_n what_o welcome_a they_o be_v like_a to_o expect_v there_o our_o author_n clear_o demonstrate_v that_o unless_o they_o full_o resolve_v to_o turn_v papist_n they_o ought_v by_o no_o mean_n to_o expose_v themselves_o to_o the_o unavoidable_a danger_n of_o so_o great_a and_o certain_a a_o temptaion_n second_o the_o author_n aim_n be_v to_o confute_v those_o papist_n who_o either_o for_o shame_n or_o because_o they_o have_v receive_v some_o secret_a order_n so_o to_o do_v make_v it_o their_o business_n to_o give_v out_o in_o all_o protestant_a country_n and_o chief_o here_o in_o england_n that_o there_o be_v no_o such_o thing_n as_o a_o persecution_n in_o france_n and_o that_o the_o protestant_n be_v not_o molest_v there_o but_o on_o the_o contrary_a permit_v to_o live_v quiet_o but_o what_o monstrous_a impudence_n be_v this_o to_o give_v the_o lie_v not_o only_o to_o thousand_o of_o traveller_n and_o many_o of_o they_o person_n of_o quality_n who_o be_v every_o day_n eye-witness_n of_o these_o new_a cruelty_n as_o well_o as_o abhorrer_n of_o those_o miscreant_n that_o execute_v they_o but_o also_o to_o several_a
