be_v pardon_v have_v you_o only_o say_v i_o fear_v or_o i_o suspect_v this_o but_o sure_o there_o be_v not_o any_o christian_n except_o mr._n bagshaw_n who_o religion_n will_v allow_v he_o to_o say_v

counterfeit_v a_o religion_n that_o he_o know_v be_v ruinous_a to_o his_o fortune_n be_v this_o your_o theological_a virtue_n of_o hope_n true_o it_o become_v you_o well_o your_o faith_n hope_n and_o

be_v this_o because_o the_o preservation_n of_o the_o church_n in_o unity_n and_o truth_n under_o the_o government_n of_o supreme_a pastor_n without_o interruption_n for_o sixteen_o hundred_o year_n
