sir_n nor_o as_o i_o be_o a_o christian_n do_v i_o come_v to_o the_o knowledge_n of_o this_o direct_o or_o indirect_o from_o any_o member_n of_o the_o family_n why_o will_v you_o suffer_v a_o

without_o any_o possibility_n of_o clear_v himself_o it_o be_v a_o thing_n that_o extreme_o confound_v and_o mislead_v we_o in_o this_o affair_n the_o govern_n of_o ourselves_o by_o the_o common_a

the_o plot_n as_o in_o despite_n of_o detraction_n we_o have_v see_v many_o instance_n and_o last_o a_o man_n may_v have_v a_o tenderness_n and_o charity_n for_o the_o party_n without_o lean_v at_o all_o to_o the_o opinion_n and_o with_o a_o perfect_a detestation_n of_o the_o execrable_a confederacy_n well_o doctor_n but_o you_o will_v tell_v i_o that_o this_o popish_a plot_n be_v a_o

good_a lord_n deliver_v we_o but_o you_o will_v say_v sir_n that_o prelacy_n ceremony_n habit_n and_o set_v form_n of_o prayer_n be_v not_o to_o be_v account_v matter_n of_o religion_n i_o beseech_v

to_o look_v out_o at_o the_o window_n on_o the_o other_o for_o religion_n consist_v in_o do_v as_o well_o as_o believe_v and_o in_o the_o conservation_n of_o unity_n and_o order_n the_o resemblance_n betwixt_o the_o face_n and_o the_o glass_n be_v scarce_o like_a than_o these_o two_o case_n and_o i_o do_v not_o know_v why_o the_o same_o way_n of_o reason_v may_v not_o hold_v as_o well_o too_o upon_o thing_n so_o agree_v betwixt_o themselves_o the_o popish_a plot_n be_v impious_a for_o so_o much_o as_o concern_v the_o destroy_n of_o the_o king_n and_o the_o lay_n of_o the_o nation_n in_o
