return_v this_o answer_n but_o sirrah_n say_v he_o you_o mistake_v your_o text_n you_o think_v i_o take_v more_o state_n upon_o i_o than_o be_v befit_v a_o apostle_n but_o let_v peter_n &_o paul_n

answer_v well_o say_v the_o other_o but_o good_a my_o lord_n but_o one_o question_n more_o if_o this_o prince_n elector_n that_o you_o speak_v of_o do_v happen_v to_o go_v to_o the_o devil_n for_o his_o pride_n what_o will_v become_v of_o my_o lord_n bishop_n of_o cullen_n we_o may_v make_v the_o like_a demand_n to_o the_o pope_n who_o notwithstanding_o his_o humble_a pretence_n to_o be_v seruus_fw-la seruorum_fw-la dei_fw-la yet_o he_o assume_v to_o himself_o the_o dispose_n of_o the_o whole_a world_n &_o not_o content_v with_o that_o neither_o but_o he_o further_o take_v upon_o he_o to_o have_v command_n both_o in_o heaven_n and_o hell_n to_o let_v in_o and_o shut_v out_o as_o it_o please_v he_o but_o because_o his_o intolerable_a pride_n be_v well_o enough_o know_v i_o may_v be_v the_o more_o spare_v it_o be_v the_o bounty_n and_o liberality_n of_o prince_n that_o first_o beget_v this_o ambition_n in_o pope_n so_o ambition_n be_v it_o again_o that_o first_o destroy_v religion_n but_o for_o the_o true_a professor_n of_o the_o gospel_n i_o protest_v i_o think_v it_o a_o sin_n to_o carry_v any_o ill_a conceit_n against_o they_o who_o prayer_n unto_o god_n do_v so_o appease_v his_o displeasure_n towards_o we_o that_o he_o many_o time_n forbear_v to_o punish_v we_o when_o we_o have_v worthy_o deserve_v it_o and_o as_o the_o prayer_n of_o moses_n do_v rather_o procure_v the_o victory_n against_o amalecke_n than_o all_o the_o sword_n that_o do_v accompany_v josua_n to_o the_o fight_n so_o i_o believe_v that_o the_o petition_n of_o one_o godly_a man_n deliver_v with_o a_o confident_a zeal_n be_v of_o more_o effect_n than_o the_o prayer_n of_o a_o multitude_n that_o be_v but_o breathe_v in_o word_n and_o be_v rather_o utter_v from_o the_o mouth_n

the_o oppression_n of_o tyrant_n that_o do_v countermand_v the_o misery_n of_o civil_a dissension_n that_o do_v restrain_v the_o pride_n and_o ambition_n of_o aspire_a traitor_n that_o do_v enlarge_v
