a_o answer_n to_o a_o late_a treasonable_a pamphlet_n '_o entitle_v treason_n in_o grain_n etc._n etc._n for_o which_o pamphlet_n edward_n fitz-harris_n lie_v condemn_v sir_n i_o receive_v you_o wherein_o you_o desire_v to_o know_v my_o sentiment_n about_o that_o horrible_a infamous_a libel_n compose_v by_o fitz-harris_n the_o thing_n itself_o contain_v nothing_o but_o a_o mass_n of_o traitorous_a expression_n horrid_a invective_n and_o lie_a detraction_n to_o blast_v his_o sacred_a majesty_n insomuch_o that_o the_o repetition_n of_o those_o villainy_n within_o it_o be_v enough_o to_o infect_v the_o ear_n of_o any_o true_a loyal_a heart_a subject_n and_o shall_v i_o handle_v that_o treasonous_a paper_n according_a to_o its_o desert_n my_o letter_n will_v have_v much_o exceed_v the_o limit_n i_o design_v but_o i_o suppose_v you_o may_v easy_o guess_v at_o the_o rognâ—ry_n of_o the_o piece_n by_o the_o person_n concern_v in_o it_o can_v any_o man_n without_o horror_n and_o amazement_n see_v his_o majesty_n calumniate_v at_o that_o rate_n be_v there_o ever_o king_n more_o merciful_a and_o just_a than_o we_o be_v ever_o prince_n more_o injure_v than_o we_o his_o royal_a

than_o he_o do_v with_o what_o candour_n and_o integrity_n do_v he_o pardon_v his_o great_a enemy_n and_o know_a opposer_n even_o to_o the_o deprive_v justice_n of_o her_o due_a tribute_n and_o hazard_v of_o his_o future_a tranquillity_n with_o what_o invincible_a patience_n have_v he_o bear_v those_o unworthy_a detraction_n which_o have_v of_o late_o be_v throw_v upon_o he_o can_v he_o

in_o a_o great_a measure_n contribute_v to_o all_o those_o disturbance_n and_o inquietude_n he_o have_v receive_v since_o his_o happy_a restauration_n and_o have_v prove_v the_o sharp_a thorn_n in_o

of_o the_o prophet_n david_n the_o zeal_n of_o thy_o house_n have_v eat_v i_o up_o o_o lord_n this_o libel_n be_v in_o itself_o so_o infamous_a that_o all_o party_n disow_v it_o the_o papist_n say_v
