O. thereunto, together with Doctor B. Reply. Also an addition of ten arguments more in further proof of the question, with an answer adjoyned in disproof thereof.

and_o when_o i_o see_v it_o i_o will_v return_v you_o a_o answer_n to_o the_o second_o viz._n that_o we_o rob_v god_n people_n of_o their_o right_n etc._n etc._n i_o answer_v the_o expression_n rob_v

they_o shall_v be_v admit_v sir_n take_v heed_n you_o pronounce_v not_o sentence_n of_o condemnation_n against_o yourselves_o for_o i_o think_v be_v it_o material_a it_o may_v easy_o be_v make_v
