A89061	Mercuries message defended, against the vain, foolish, simple, and absurd cavils of Thomas Herbert a ridiculous ballad-maker. Wherein, his witlesse answers are clearly confuted, himselfe found guilty of hypocrisie, catcht broaching of popery, condemned by his owne words, and here and there for his impudent saucinesse jerkt with the rod of correction, to teach him more manners when he writes again. By the author of the said Mercuries message.	Taylor, John, 1580-1653.	1641 (1641)	Wing M1747; Thomason E160_13; ESTC R22299	13,081	24

his_o zealous_a wit_n it_o be_v something_o strange_a sir_n you_o shall_v be_v so_o well_o acquaint_v with_o my_o religion_n before_o ever_o you_o see_v my_o person_n which_o to_o your_o knowledge_n

of_o his_o name_n every_o time_n we_o hear_v it_o pronounce_v this_o be_v a_o very_a false_a and_o groundless_a tenant_n contrary_a to_o the_o opinion_n of_o all_o reform_a divine_n in_o the_o
