A69458	An exact copy of a letter sent to William Laud, late Arch-bishop of Canterbury, now prisoner in the Tower, November the 5, 1641 at which his Lordship taking exceptions, the author visited him in his owne person, and having admittance to him, had some private discourse with him concerning the cruelty in which he formerly raigned in his power : the substance whereof is truly composed by the author himselfe, wherein doth appeare a sign of complying with the times and some hopes of his repentance.	Denham, John, Sir, 1615-1669.; Laud, William, 1573-1645.	1641 (1641)	Wing A2; ESTC R6766	4,000	9

have_v a_o tender_a care_n over_o the_o conscience_n of_o man_n i_o stand_v not_o on_o the_o word_n puritan_n but_o if_o a_o man_n be_v a_o honest_a man_n what_o ever_o he_o be_v i_o do_v approve_v of_o he_o indeed_o my_o lord_n quoth_v he_o it_o may_v be_v there_o may_v be_v some_o hypocrite_n that_o may_v have_v that_o name_n put_v upon_o they_o as_o you_o know_v among_o our_o saviour_n
