of_o shaftsbury_n that_o tony_n of_o a_o peer_n cast_v no_o unmannerly_a reflection_n upon_o his_o majesty_n for_o make_v he_o his_o lord_n chancellor_n when_o he_o do_v but_o for_o you_o to_o make_v such_o a_o question_n be_v doubtless_o saucy_o to_o intermeddle_v in_o affair_n you_o understand_v not_o for_o his_o majesty_n who_o be_v a_o wise_a and_o understanding_n prince_n do_v questionless_a very_o well_o understand_v the_o temper_n of_o the_o man_n at_o the_o time_n he_o confer_v that_o high_a honour_n on_o he_o but_o what_o if_o his_o majesty_n thus_o raise_v he_o up_o either_o to_o lay_v the_o great_a obligation_n to_o loyalty_n on_o he_o or_o for_o the_o same_o cause_n that_o god_n do_v heretofore_o pharaoh_n that_o his_o disloyalty_n to_o his_o prince_n may_v be_v the_o more_o conspicuous_a by_o his_o fall_n as_o lucifer_n that_o fell_a be_v or_o for_o other_o reason_n of_o state_n and_o end_n of_o government_n best_o know_v to_o his_o majesty_n must_v titus_n oat_n and_o other_o of_o his_o fraternity_n immediate_o fall_v to_o make_v a_o idol_n of_o this_o chancellor_n by_o worship_v of_o he_o when_o his_o majesty_n see_v this_o and_o that_o the_o people_n fall_v a_o bow_n to_o he_o and_o he_o again_o to_o the_o people_n and_o that_o they_o mutual_o worship_v one_o another_o it_o be_v high_a time_n his_o majesty_n think_v to_o break_v this_o idol_n of_o a_o chancellor_n in_o piece_n or_o rather_o by_o throw_v he_o down_o to_o the_o bottom_n of_o contempt_n to_o make_v he_o burst_v in_o sunder_o with_o discontent_n in_o relation_n to_o who_o all_o that_o i_o have_v to_o add_v far_o be_v hearty_o to_o wish_v that_o since_o a_o double_a portion_n of_o his_o unquiet_a spirit_n still_o rest_v among_o the_o faction_n the_o curse_n which_o befall_v he_o may_v likewise_o befall_v they_o and_o that_o the_o envy_n which_o the_o faction_n have_v at_o the_o prosperity_n of_o his_o majesty_n late_a good_a success_n in_o his_o proceed_n may_v be_v the_o rottenness_n of_o their_o bone_n as_o the_o like_a envy_n in_o he_o be_v the_o rottenness_n of_o he_o as_o to_o your_o sixth_z quere_z wherein_o you_o ask_v the_o observator_fw-la who_o that_o trimmer_n be_v who_o be_v judicial_o interrogated_a about_o somebody_o be_v receive_n the_o sacrament_n and_o after_o several_a interrogatory_n reply_v that_o it_o be_v sit_v but_o very_o decent_o i_o have_v nothing_o more_o to_o say_v but_o only_o to_o tell_v you_o that_o since_o you_o boast_v of_o those_o vast_a number_n you_o have_v bring_v to_o the_o sacrament_n and_o of_o their_o exact_a conformity_n to_o the_o order_n of_o the_o church_n in_o their_o receive_n of_o it_o i_o desire_v to_o know_v of_o you_o whether_o to_o gain_v a_o proselyte_n to_o the_o church_n you_o never_o do_v in_o that_o particular_a break_v the_o order_n of_o it_o that_o be_v never_o administer_v the_o sacrament_n to_o any_o that_o can_v kneel_v in_o any_o other_o posture_n than_o that_o of_o kneel_v now_o if_o by_o the_o oath_n you_o have_v take_v not_o to_o administer_v it_o otherwise_o you_o will_v tell_v i_o that_o you_o be_v ready_a at_o any_o time_n to_o take_v the_o sacrament_n on_o it_o that_o you_o never_o do_v you_o shall_v then_o be_v discharge_v from_o all_o suspicion_n of_o be_v the_o above_o mention_v trimmer_n but_o till_o i_o know_v that_o you_o be_v ready_a to_o purge_v yourself_o after_o this_o manner_n you_o will_v shrewd_o be_v suspect_v either_o to_o be_v that_o individual_a trimmer_n or_o at_o least_o one_o of_o his_o fraternity_n in_o your_o last_n quere_z to_o thc_fw-la observator_fw-la you_o ask_v he_o whether_o it_o be_v not_o more_o advisable_v that_o for_o the_o future_a he_o shall_v suffer_v those_o to_o live_v in_o quiet_a who_o be_v no_o less_o loyal_a but_o far_o more_o peaceable_a than_o himself_o to_o which_o i_o answer_v that_o this_o be_v nothing_o else_o but_o to_o beg_v the_o question_n by_o take_v it_o for_o grant_v that_o he_o have_v not_o do_v what_o you_o say_v be_v most_o advisable_a but_o let_v one_o single_a instance_n be_v produce_v to_o the_o contrary_a and_o i_o will_v undertake_v for_o he_o for_o the_o future_a that_o he_o shall_v take_v your_o advice_n wherefore_o since_o you_o tell_v we_o that_o no_o good_a man_n will_v ever_o think_v that_o rebel_n or_o disturber_n of_o the_o government_n can_v be_v too_o severe_o lash_v by_o his_o pen_n let_v i_o desire_v you_o for_o the_o future_a not_o to_o be_v so_o sensible_a of_o the_o smart_n when_o you_o find_v they_o lash_v by_o it_o and_o thus_o i_o have_v answer_v the_o several_a question_n propose_v by_o you_o to_o the_o observator_fw-la and_o may_v now_o therefore_o take_v leave_n of_o your_o reply_n to_o he_o but_o that_o i_o there_o find_v some_o other_o little_a thing_n object_v against_o he_o the_o first_o whereof_o be_v his_o profane_o entitul_a one_o of_o his_o paper_n a_o edify_v discourse_n concern_v bear_n one_o another_o burden_n now_o how_o come_v your_o discourse_n to_o be_v so_o sacred_a that_o the_o observator_fw-la can_v use_v one_o of_o they_o for_o his_o title-page_n without_o profanation_n of_o it_o again_o another_o objection_n against_o he_o be_v that_o his_o paper_n be_v common_o read_v by_o a_o sort_n of_o man_n who_o take_v occasion_n from_o they_o to_o revile_v and_o censure_v any_o who_o they_o dislike_v and_o that_o thereby_o very_o innocent_a person_n great_o suffer_v in_o their_o reputation_n now_o suppose_v this_o true_a be_v his_o paper_n one_o jot_n the_o worse_o because_o some_o man_n by_o misapply_v they_o abuse_n and_o make_v a_o ill_a use_n of_o they_o no_o man_n sure_a will_v say_v they_o be_v for_o then_o the_o scripture_n themselves_o the_o very_o best_a of_o write_n may_v be_v impeach_v as_o well_o as_o he_o for_o these_o likewise_o be_v read_v by_o a_o sort_n of_o man_n who_o take_v occasion_n from_o they_o to_o censure_v the_o worship_n of_o the_o best_a establish_v church_n in_o the_o whole_a world_n and_o to_o revile_v and_o vilify_v the_o discipline_n and_o government_n thereof_o but_o now_o the_o scripture_n sure_o be_v herein_o no_o way_n unblamable_a nor_o be_v the_o ill_a use_n that_o some_o man_n make_v of_o they_o to_o be_v in_o any_o wife_n charge_v upon_o they_o any_o more_o than_o it_o be_v to_o be_v charge_v upon_o the_o wine_n that_o some_o man_n be_v so_o wicked_a as_o to_o debauch_v themselves_o and_o other_o with_o it_o so_o that_o you_o see_v innocent_a person_n may_v be_v traduce_v by_o mean_n of_o the_o observator_n paper_n and_o yet_o the_o observator_n paper_n be_v all_o that_o while_o very_o innocent_a of_o the_o abuse_n of_o they_o again_o you_o tell_v we_o far_o that_o there_o be_v some_o who_o have_v suffer_v by_o his_o pen_n who_o yet_o have_v be_v very_o kind_a to_o his_o purse_n but_o what_o be_v this_o but_o to_o tell_v we_o that_o the_o observator_fw-la be_v no_o mercenary_a scribbler_n none_o that_o may_v be_v bribe_v to_o write_v in_o favour_n of_o any_o man_n who_o be_v not_o as_o hearty_a a_o lover_n of_o the_o king_n and_o as_o true_a a_o friend_n to_o the_o government_n as_o himself_o be_v but_o as_o for_o all_o such_o as_o be_v so_o let_v they_o be_v but_o once_o know_v to_o he_o and_o whether_o they_o be_v kind_a to_o his_o purse_n or_o no_o i_o will_v undertake_v that_o he_o shall_v be_v so_o to_o they_o other_o again_o you_o tell_v we_o of_o who_o to_o your_o knowledge_n have_v have_v a_o great_a honour_n for_o his_o name_n and_o family_n and_o yet_o have_v be_v traduce_v by_o he_o now_o here_o again_o i_o must_v undertake_v for_o he_o and_o tell_v you_o that_o if_o there_o be_v any_o such_o as_o you_o speak_v of_o and_o who_o likewise_o have_v a_o just_a esteem_n for_o he_o upon_o the_o account_n of_o his_o steady_a and_o unshaken_a loyalty_n to_o his_o prince_n which_o to_o the_o immortal_a honour_n of_o his_o name_n ought_v never_o to_o be_v forget_v and_o yet_o have_v suffer_v from_o his_o pen_n or_o be_v traduce_v by_o it_o he_o shall_v not_o only_o hearty_o beg_v their_o pardon_n for_o it_o but_o shall_v for_o the_o future_a court_v their_o friendship_n and_o have_v the_o same_o honour_n and_o esteem_v for_o they_o which_o they_o have_v for_o he_o and_o now_o you_o have_v thus_o let_v fly_v at_o the_o observator_fw-la and_o discharge_v yourself_o of_o all_o your_o rancour_n and_o malice_n against_o he_o but_o with_o no_o better_a success_n than_o one_o that_o let_v off_o a_o gun_n which_o by_o reason_n of_o the_o foulness_n thereof_o recoil_v upon_o himself_o you_o tell_v we_o in_o the_o conclusion_n of_o your_o reply_n that_o you_o hope_v he_o will_v ever_o long_o either_o be_v persuade_v or_o command_v to_o forbear_v his_o publication_n be_v at_o least_o leave_v ecclesiastical_a matter_n and_o person_n to_o who_o they_o belong_v in_o answer_n to_o which_o all_o that_o i_o have_v to_o say_v be_v that_o since_o he_o meddle_v with_o

whereas_o you_o tell_v we_o that_o you_o doubt_v not_o but_o in_o a_o short_a time_n many_o dissenter_n will_v understand_v their_o error_n and_o become_v lover_n of_o the_o church_n give_v i_o leave_v to_o tell_v you_o that_o i_o hope_v many_o in_o a_o much_o short_a time_n will_v understand_v the_o dissenter_n themselves_o and_o be_v not_o only_o true_a lover_n of_o the_o church_n and_o

to_o deal_v ingenuous_o with_o you_o which_o be_v that_o which_o in_o your_o preface_n to_o the_o reader_n you_o desire_v of_o he_o it_o be_v not_o the_o plainness_n of_o it_o which_o i_o dislike_v in_o it_o but_o that_o spirit_n of_o phanaticism_n which_o it_o savour_v of_o and_o which_o run_v through_o the_o whole_a of_o it_o but_o the_o sermon_n you_o say_v shall_v speak_v for_o itself_o
