reformation_n have_v be_v a_o more_o apt_a and_o proper_a epithet_n furthermore_o i_o will_v appeal_v to_o the_o whole_a world_n whether_o it_o be_v not_o more_o pardonable_a to_o imitate_v a_o king_n in_o his_o laudable_a action_n and_o policy_n performable_a by_o he_o as_o a_o man_n than_o to_o resemble_v he_o to_o so_o base_a and_o abject_a a_o person_n as_o a_o postilion_n be_v know_v to_o be_v the_o doctor_n very_o well_o know_v that_o this_o be_v one_o rule_v always_o to_o be_v observe_v in_o take_v a_o metaphor_n that_o it_o be_v not_o from_o any_o thing_n filthy_a or_o sordid_a especial_o when_o the_o translation_n be_v to_o king_n and_o it_o be_v very_o much_o to_o his_o disrepute_n that_o he_o who_o value_v himself_o at_o so_o great_a a_o rate_n for_o his_o stile_n and_o oratory_n shall_v so_o gross_o fail_v in_o the_o common_a and_o know_a rule_n of_o a_o similitude_n and_o yet_o i_o will_v not_o be_v over_o rash_a and_o impute_v all_o to_o his_o mistake_n the_o intimacy_n that_o he_o say_v he_o have_v with_o mr._n william_n petit_n councillor_n of_o the_o inner-temple_n and_o that_o he_o have_v his_o assistance_n and_o direction_n as_o to_o the_o law_n and_o

late_o print_v book_n indicates_z too_o much_o of_o his_o temper_n and_o his_o choice_n of_o doctor_n burnet_n for_o the_o digest_v and_o publish_v his_o collection_n argue_v too_o much_o of_o

that_o before_o the_o church_n be_v reestablish_v you_o receive_v episcopal_a order_n from_o a_o excellent_a bishop_n of_o this_o church_n which_o may_v be_v true_a and_o i_o question_v not_o but_o
