the_o jesuit_n doctrine_n concern_v king_n as_o believe_v it_o conformable_a to_o what_o the_o best_a doctor_n of_o the_o church_n have_v teach_v but_o why_o do_v i_o relate_v the_o testimony_n of_o one_o particular_a prince_n when_o the_o whole_a catholic_a world_n be_v the_o jesuit_n advocate_n for_o to_o they_o chief_o germany_n france_n italy_n spain_n and_o flanders_n trust_v the_o

as_o they_o be_v now_o take_v for_o in_o england_n in_o the_o three_o place_n dear_a countryman_n i_o do_v attest_v that_o as_o i_o never_o in_o my_o life_n do_v machine_n or_o contrive_v either_o

in_o heaven_n for_o the_o judge_n also_o and_o the_o jury_n and_o all_o those_o that_o be_v any_o way_n concern_v either_o in_o my_o trial_n accusation_n or_o condemnation_n i_o do_v humble_o ask_v of_o god_n both_o temporal_a and_o eternal_a happiness_n and_o as_o for_o mr._n oat_n and_o mr._n dugdale_n who_o i_o call_v god_n to_o witness_v by_o false_a oath_n have_v bring_v i_o to_o this_o
