kind_n of_o a_o miraculous_a birth_n of_o a_o suppose_a prince_n of_o wales_n have_v be_v a_o just_a ground_n for_o another_o for_o such_o a_o signal_n mercy_n of_o a_o heir_n male_a to_o the_o

therewith_o and_o so_o from_o time_n to_o time_n we_o have_v never_o want_v occasion_n or_o pretension_n of_o multiply_v to_o a_o infinite_a i_o dare_v say_v our_o author_n be_v a_o observer_n in_o private_a of_o that_o six_o of_o february_n thus_o there_o have_v be_v no_o end_n for_o superstition_n will_v not_o be_v keep_v within_o bound_n or_o measure_n and_o here_o i_o must_v make_v the_o author_n who_o in_o several_a place_n do_v unjust_o brand_v we_o with_o innovation_n see_v how_o such_o anniverssary_n be_v innovation_n for_o here_o we_o have_v no_o such_o thing_n before_o king_n charles_n restoration_n wherefore_o let_v there_o be_v no_o more_o such_o a_o scuffle_n about_o dead_a body_n now_o with_o the_o help_n of_o god_n i_o must_v proceed_v to_o some_o few_o observation_n and_o that_o as_o brief_o as_o i_o can_v first_o he_o have_v not_o return_v i_o one_o text_n of_o scripture_n for_o so_o many_o i_o have_v give_v yet_o the_o word_n of_o god_n be_v to_o be_v judge_n of_o these_o controversy_n but_o indeed_o his_o way_n of_o discourse_v be_v altogether_o inconsistent_a with_o that_o holy_a word_n then_o i_o say_v most_o of_o my_o reason_n be_v untouched_a and_o hardly_o any_o thing_n answer_v and_o nothing_o to_o the_o purpose_n nothing_o say_v against_o my_o position_n that_o for_o such_o anniverssary_n there_o be_v no_o precept_n nor_o precedent_n in_o scripture_n the_o three_o pretend_v out_o of_o the_o old_a testament_n i_o refute_v and_o not_o one_o word_n of_o the_o refutation_n take_v notice_n of_o nor_o nothing_o say_v either_o to_o excuse_v or_o justify_v that_o violent_a spirit_n in_o those_o sermon_n i_o complain_v of_o only_o this_o their_o gospel-talent_n must_v not_o be_v wrap_v up_o in_o a_o idle_a napkin_n of_o silence_n and_o oblivion_n which_o how_o satisfactory_a a_o answer_n it_o be_v i_o leave_v any_o rational_a man_n to_o judge_v and_o indeed_o he_o have_v no_o room_n for_o sober_a and_o serious_a discourse_n his_o be_v whole_o stuff_v with_o invective_n i_o can_v instance_n several_a other_o particular_n in_o my_o observation_n which_o he_o have_v not_o take_v notice_n of_o in_o the_o least_o whereby_o one_o may_v see_v he_o have_v lose_v his_o cause_n but_o not_o to_o trouble_v myself_o any_o long_a as_o to_o this_o i_o leave_v it_o to_o any_o impartial_a reader_n to_o compare_v his_o book_n with_o i_o which_o i_o do_v earnest_o desire_v and_o it_o will_v be_v find_v in_o many_o thing_n he_o quite_o fly_v off_o from_o the_o matter_n and_o see_v i_o now_o be_o upon_o my_o confession_n i_o declare_v i_o can_v never_o have_v think_v there_o can_v in_o one_o man_n meet_v so_o much_o of_o ill_a nature_n of_o ill_a breed_n and_o so_o much_o of_o brutishness_n that_o one_o shall_v be_v so_o unreasonable_a and_o unrational_a for_o he_o cease_v to_o be_v a_o man_n and_o a_o christian_a too_o if_o ever_o he_o be_v such_o he_o will_v bite_v and_o devour_v if_o he_o can_v but_o can_v and_o it_o be_v hardly_o worth_a throw_v a_o stone_n at_o he_o i_o be_o sorry_a he_o have_v so_o much_o force_v i_o out_o of_o my_o way_n of_o writing_n which_o ever_o be_v as_o every_o honest_a man_n aught_o to_o be_v with_o moderation_n and_o meekness_n not_o with_o ferocity_n and_o brutishness_n as_o i_o find_v he_o to_o be_v but_o there_o be_v worse_a than_o this_o for_o he_o strive_v in_o the_o most_o odious_a term_n he_o can_v to_o traduce_v we_o as_o enemy_n to_o church_n and_o state_n but_o believe_v he_o not_o for_o i_o find_v he_o be_v use_v to_o lie_v as_o to_o the_o first_o we_o
