primitive_a christianity_n in_o real_a meekness_n christian_a charity_n and_o self-denial_n than_o the_o picture_n hang_v against_o a_o wall_n have_v of_o the_o real_a essence_n and_o substance_n of_o

the_o survive_a spectator_n of_o our_o late_a intestine_a unhappy_a broil_n how_o our_o religion_n and_o government_n as_o inseparable_a supporter_n of_o each_o other_o be_v by_o the_o same_o

to_o check_v and_o countermine_v the_o jesuit_n on_o the_o one_o hand_n and_o the_o sectary_n on_o the_o other_o so_o as_o to_o secure_v our_o settle_a religion_n and_o government_n against_o the_o

as_o if_o the_o external_a way_n of_o worship_n be_v the_o vital_a substance_n in_o religion_n especial_o when_o the_o church_n of_o england_n lay_v no_o more_o stress_n in_o any_o rite_n or_o

if_o the_o dissenter_n will_v agree_v among_o themselves_o and_o make_v their_o application_n as_o become_v inferior_n to_o those_o who_o be_v entrust_v by_o the_o government_n in_o so_o sacred_a and_o weighty_a a_o affair_n we_o may_v just_o therefore_o pronounce_v a_o woe_n against_o they_o that_o do_v hinder_v nay_o that_o do_v not_o as_o much_o as_o in_o they_o lie_v promote_v so_o great_a a_o blessing_n to_o their_o majesty_n and_o the_o whole_a kingdom_n but_o what_o hope_n can_v we_o now_o entertain_v that_o dissenter_n shall_v ever_o unite_v with_o we_o when_o they_o be_v so_o far_o from_o any_o such_o condescension_n or_o application_n in_o order_n to_o it_o that_o by_o colour_n of_o their_o indulgence_n but_o contrary_a to_o the_o design_n of_o the_o lawmaker_n they_o have_v
