to_o be_v speak_v in_o the_o honourable_a house_n of_o commons_o upon_o read_v the_o bill_n against_o the_o d._n by_o a_o true_a englishman_n it_o be_v not_o long_o ago_o since_o a_o mighty_a orator_n lawyer_n logician_n and_o what_o not_o most_o strenuous_o undertake_v for_o weighty_a consideration_n to_o overthrow_v all_o law_n and_o logic_n and_o by_o tack_v of_o inconsequent_a word_n as_o he_o use_v to_o do_v bill_n together_o to_o show_v the_o world_n how_o zealous_o and_o bold_o he_o can_v speak_v no_o sense_n this_o same_o sir_n formal_a trifle_n who_o in_o his_o exordium_n very_o

that_o he_o be_v a_o go_v to_o say_v somewhat_o for_o the_o king_n as_o he_o express_v it_o and_o so_o to_o prove_v himself_o a_o extraordinary_a loyalist_n make_v a_o speech_n for_o the_o king_n in_o opposition_n to_o the_o royal_a will._n he_o know_v very_o well_o the_o king_n have_v often_o declare_v that_o he_o will_v never_o do_v any_o thing_n that_o may_v hinder_v the_o succession_n to_o the_o crown_n in_o the_o right_a line_n yet_o still_o he_o must_v try_v his_o faculty_n in_o rhetoric_n and_o say_v somewhat_o for_o the_o king_n now_o either_o this_o kind_a gentleman_n imagine_v he_o can_v be_v a_o great_a friend_n to_o the_o king_n than_o the_o king_n to_o himself_o or_o else_o his_o wit_n and_o eloquence_n have_v spoil_v his_o memory_n in_o the_o law_n for_o there_o he_o may_v find_v the_o king_n be_v no_o minor_a but_o that_o he_o have_v always_o year_n enough_o to_o speak_v for_o himself_o but_o it_o be_v no_o matter_n what_o he_o mean_v let_v it_o be_v what_o it_o will_v he_o must_v needs_o be_v a_o good_a statesman_n that_o utter_v himself_o like_o a_o spout_n for_o the_o king_n and_o kingdom_n especial_o in_o a_o business_n of_o such_o importance_n as_o the_o

much_o as_o his_o birthright_n if_o it_o be_v possible_a that_o such_o a_o thing_n may_v be_v dangerous_a to_o religion_n now_o true_o here_o we_o may_v take_v occasion_n to_o consider_v in_o this_o weighty_a matter_n what_o manner_n of_o religion_n this_o good_a gentleman_n will_v secure_v be_v it_o the_o creed_n of_o knipperdolling_n true_o i_o be_o not_o certain_a he_o do_v not_o mean_a so_o be_v it_o the_o true_o modern_a institution_n of_o genevesian_n john_n it_o may_v be_v so_o either_o for_o aught_o i_o know_v but_o that_o it_o be_v not_o the_o protestant_a religion_n of_o the_o church_n of_o england_n i_o dare_v bold_o and_o with_o the_o high_a zeal_n affirm_v i_o can_v tell_v what_o he_o suppose_v or_o what_o the_o spirit_n within_o he_o dictate_v but_o if_o his_o policy_n have_v not_o overcome_v his_o religion_n he_o must_v confess_v that_o neither_o the_o avow_v doctrine_n of_o this_o church_n nor_o any_o just_a and_o rational_a interpretation_n of_o scripture_n can_v induce_v he_o to_o think_v that_o religion_n be_v to_o be_v secure_v by_o pervert_v the_o universal_a principle_n of_o all_o nation_n and_o act_v contrary_a to_o the_o express_a word_n of_o god_n but_o indeed_o so_o zealous_a be_v this_o passionate_a advocate_n for_o his_o religion_n i._n e._n his_o estate_n for_o so_o he_o afterward_o explain_v himself_o that_o to_o secure_v his_o own_o

himself_o my_o lord_n chancellor_n he_o tell_v we_o late_o tell_v they_o that_o this_o be_v the_o time_n and_o he_o very_o wise_o think_v that_o he_o may_v make_v use_n of_o this_o say_v upon_o all_o

a_o politician_n as_o my_o lord_n how_o arrogant_o the_o world_n may_v judge_v and_o to_o apply_v those_o word_n which_o his_o lordship_n mature_o bring_v forth_o to_o the_o crude_a notion_n of_o his_o own_o raw_a brain_n he_o go_v on_o and_o comment_v upon_o what_o my_o lord_n say_v and_o make_v his_o lordship_n time_n long_o enough_o for_o deliberation_n and_o profound_a thought_n to_o shrink_v and_o dwindle_v into_o a_o inconsiderable_a inconsiderate_a moment_n but_o true_o a_o moment_n be_v of_o a_o duration_n sufficient_a to_o speak_v all_o his_o reason_n in_o and_o if_o divisible_a will_v lie_v at_o least_o one_o half_a upon_o our_o hand_n ready_a to_o be_v employ_v in_o any_o other_o kind_n of_o jargon_n and_o now_o he_o have_v find_v the_o critical_a minute_n of_o

you_o be_v under_o a_o great_a hazard_n that_o your_o child_n may_v curse_v you_o nay_o be_v bind_v to_o curse_v you_o that_o be_v more_o a_o strange_a obligation_n this_o upon_o child_n that_o they_o shall_v be_v bind_v to_o curse_v their_o forefather_n for_o do_v justice_n even_o to_o a_o heathen_a for_o sure_o this_o gentleman_n child_n especial_o if_o they_o be_v not_o true_o he_o may_v easy_o come_v to_o know_v that_o right_o and_o wrong_n be_v never_o restrain_v to_o this_o or_o that_o sort_n of_o man_n but_o common_a and_o diffuse_v to_o all_o mankind_n no_o they_o will_v certain_o consider_v that_o there_o be_v no_o reason_n they_o shall_v curse_v their_o father_n for_o not_o make_v a_o law_n to_o disinherit_v a_o heir_n for_o it_o will_v be_v natural_o suggest_v to_o they_o that_o it_o may_v have_v be_v their_o own_o case_n oh_o but_o the_o great_a good_a that_o follow_v upon_o this_o however_o unnatural_a injury_n be_v no_o less_o than_o the_o secure_n of_o religion_n so_o then_o we_o may_v do_v ill_a that_o good_a may_v come_v on_o it_o i_o protest_v but_o that_o this_o gentleman_n be_v a_o member_n of_o the_o honourable_a house_n i_o shall_v have_v take_v he_o for_o a_o jesuit_n that_o have_v only_o disguise_v himself_o under_o a_o pretence_n for_o protestant_a religion_n for_o i_o appeal_v to_o the_o whole_a house_n if_o this_o be_v not_o a_o jesuitical_a practice_n to_o cut_v off_o a_o king_n or_o which_o be_v worse_o dethrone_v he_o and_o yet_o more_o barbarous_o let_v he_o live_v mere_o because_o he_o be_v a_o heretic_n to_o their_o principle_n he_o that_o rely_v upon_o such_o maxim_n make_v it_o utter_o impossible_a ever_o to_o establish_v any_o much_o less_o the_o protestant_a religion_n i_o admire_v what_o wonder_v this_o worthy_a patriot_n think_v the_o d._n can_v do_v when_o he_o come_v to_o the_o crown_n can_v he_o make_v law_n or_o alter_v the_o constitution_n of_o the_o government_n without_o the_o consent_n of_o a_o parliament_n he_o do_v not_o think_v so_o i_o be_o sure_a why_o then_o certain_o he_o must_v believe_v the_o whole_a nation_n be_v incline_v to_o popery_n or_o otherwise_o he_o can_v never_o imagine_v a_o popish_a successor_n to_o be_v so_o formidable_a a_o giant_n as_o he_o make_v he_o but_o let_v he_o live_v where_o he_o will_v in_o the_o city_n or_o country_n i_o do_v doubt_v but_o he_o hear_v argument_n enough_o to_o persuade_v any_o reasonable_a creature_n that_o it_o be_v a_o difficulty_n to_o bring_v popery_n into_o england_n next_o to_o that_o of_o translate_n rome_n to_o london_n can_v he_o
