affect_v be_v but_o barefaced_a lie_n and_o calumny_n for_o it_o be_v incredible_a the_o papist_n will_v vent_v all_o their_o malice_n agaisnt_v their_o friend_n and_o do_v what_o in_o they_o lie_v to_o cherish_v and_o increase_v their_o only_a enemy_n as_o the_o nonconformist_n will_v have_v the_o world_n believe_v they_o be_v be_v it_o not_o the_o protestant_a religion_n papist_n will_v

absurd_a they_o can_v but_o know_v the_o papist_n believe_v they_o the_o scandal_n and_o affliction_n to_o the_o true_a professor_n of_o the_o protestant_a religion_n that_o they_o deserve_v not_o the_o name_n of_o protestant_n for_o by_o protestant_a be_v mean_v one_o who_o protest_v against_o the_o error_n only_o not_o the_o truth_n too_o of_o the_o church_n of_o rome_n if_o other_o wise_a a_o turk_n may_v be_v call_v a_o protestant_n be_v it_o not_o they_o the_o papist_n upbraid_v we_o with_o in_o all_o our_o disputation_n be_v it_o not_o among_o they_o they_o shroud_v in_o all_o their_o hellish_a practice_n nor_o have_v the_o papist_n have_v any_o thing_n to_o say_v or_o do_v against_o the_o protestant_a religion_n have_v it_o not_o be_v for_o the_o unhappy_a assistance_n give_v they_o by_o these_o foolish_a and_o wicked_a dissenter_n a_o second_o conclusion_n be_v that_o whatsoever_o reasonable_a fear_n there_o be_v of_o execution_n of_o a_o popish_a plot_n it_o ought_v to_o be_v lodge_v in_o the_o breast_n of_o the_o member_n of_o the_o church_n of_o england_n they_o be_v only_o the_o mark_n and_o butt_n of_o all_o the_o malicious_a stratagem_n of_o the_o papist_n wherefore_o when_o we_o see_v those_o who_o have_v least_o to_o lose_v those_o who_o the_o plot_n be_v least_o aim_v at_o the_o only_a man_n who_o seem_v to_o be_v scare_v and_o fright_v out_o of_o their_o sense_n the_o only_a man_n who_o roar_v out_o murder_n as_o if_o the_o knife_n be_v already_o at_o their_o throat_n and_o that_o though_o the_o plot_n be_v defeat_v it_o nothing_o at_o all_o abate_v their_o unreasonable_a noise_n what_o can_v a_o man_n conclude_v but_o that_o this_o excessive_a feat_n &_o zeal_n they_o pretend_v be_v only_o to_o heighten_v jealousy_n among_o his_o majesty_n subject_n beyond_o all_o prudence_n and_o reason_n it_o nonconformist_n be_v in_o earnest_n why_o do_v they_o not_o run_v into_o the_o arm_n of_o our_o church_n which_o have_v be_v always_o open_a and_o ready_a to_o embrace_v they_o for_o that_o be_v the_o only_a mean_n to_o make_v protestant_a strength_n more_o formidable_a by_o this_o mean_n we_o shall_v be_v able_a to_o oppose_v the_o pope_n and_o the_o gate_n of_o hell_n too_o if_o they_o do_v this_o there_o may_v be_v some_o credit_n give_v to_o their_o zeal_n but_o can_v a_o consider_a man_n believe_v that_o they_o can_v possible_o fancy_v popery_n such_o a_o dreadful_a thing_n and_o so_o unavoidable_o almost_o tumble_v upon_o we_o that_o they_o have_v so_o great_a a_o fondness_n for_o the_o protestant_a interest_n &_o that_o now_o they_o deem_v it_o in_o extremity_n of_o danger_n and_o yet_o will_v not_o make_v this_o one_o easy_a and_o certain_a step_n to_o dissipate_v that_o threaten_v cloud_n and_o to_o increase_v the_o strength_n interest_n and_o reputation_n of_o the_o protestant_a cause_n sure_o these_o prodigious_a fear_n they_o express_v be_v feign_v or_o they_o have_v rather_o popery_n shound_n come_v in_o than_o they_o themselves_o shall_v conform_v to_o our_o present_a church_n which_o ever_o of_o these_o it_o be_v the_o government_n have_v need_n look_v wary_o to_o they_o our_o three_o inquity_n be_v whether_o fanatic_n be_v the_o only_a person_n that_o be_v true_o zealous_a for_o protection_n of_o the_o present_a government_n the_o romish_a priest_n do_v not_o
