a_o answer_n to_o a_o scoff_v and_o lie_v libel_n put_v forth_o and_o private_o disperse_v under_o the_o title_n of_o a_o wonderful_a account_n of_o the_o cure_v the_o kings-evil_a by_o madam_n

their_o true_a goddess_n so_o it_o be_v most_o easy_a to_o find_v out_o whence_o the_o many_o late_a and_o most_o inveterate_a libel_n which_o have_v be_v spread_v abroad_o private_o proceed_v even_o from_o such_o who_o will_v make_v godliness_n their_o gain_n and_o care_v not_o what_o idolatry_n be_v set_v up_o so_o they_o may_v fill_v their_o coffer_n they_o care_v not_o who_o they_o abuse_v and_o belie_v nor_o who_o they_o defame_v and_o libel_n so_o they_o may_v gain_v their_o point_n or_o advantage_v their_o interest_n but_o let_v such_o know_v that_o as_o the_o old_a proverb_n be_v it_o be_v ill_a meddle_v with_o edge_n tool_n and_o dangerous_a to_o defame_v a_o person_n of_o honour_n who_o may_v at_o some_o time_n or_o other_o in_o all_o likelihood_n have_v the_o power_n of_o

his_o or_o their_o malice_n and_o for_o this_o end_n we_o will_v consider_v this_o libel_n with_o it_o adjunct_n of_o time_n and_o person_n who_o write_v it_o the_o substance_n of_o the_o libel_n itself_o and_o for_o what_o end_v it_o be_v spread_v abroad_o as_o for_o the_o first_o it_o be_v observable_a that_o now_o more_o than_o ever_o the_o jesuitical_a and_o popish_a party_n be_v again_o very_o busy_a and_o very_a malicious_a have_v renew_v their_o hope_n by_o reason_n of_o our_o sad_a distraction_n a_o time_n very_o convenient_a to_o put_v forth_o their_o venomn_n and_o which_o they_o seldom_o miss_v to_o do_v upon_o very_a opportunity_n a_o time_n wherein_o they_o believe_v their_o boldness_n for_o their_o cause_n may_v be_v show_v and_o in_o which_o they_o may_v after_o their_o usual_a manner_n libel_v any_o body_n with_o impunity_n a_o time_n of_o trouble_n and_o distraction_n to_o the_o whole_a nation_n and_o of_o seem_a disgrace_n and_o displeasure_n to_o that_o

to_o set_v up_o folly_n and_o lie_v so_o like_a to_o truth_n that_o the_o vulgar_a can_v scarce_o see_v the_o one_o from_o the_o other_o as_o to_o the_o person_n in_o particular_a who_o write_v this_o

you_o that_o have_v read_v the_o libel_n may_v perceive_v that_o though_o libeler_n tell_v you_o with_o some_o regret_n that_o madam_n fanshaw_n be_v not_o a_o papist_n but_o convert_v by_o her_o

with_o little_a wit_n and_o much_o malice_n invent_v of_o a_o apple-womans_n son_n cure_a of_o the_o king_n evil_a by_o the_o stroke_n of_o madam_n fanshaw_n hand_n in_o opposition_n of_o that_o not_o long_o since_o publish_v of_o his_o grace_n the_o duke_n of_o monmouth_n her_o brother_n do_v something_o of_o that_o nature_n but_o as_o the_o story_n by_o the_o pen_n and_o the_o ridicule_n and_o

to_o the_o abuse_n in_o particular_a of_o his_o grace_n the_o d._n of_o monmouth_n because_o a_o protestant_n and_o a_o obstacle_n to_o the_o design_n of_o the_o libeler_n as_o to_o the_o first_o it_o be_v most_o evident_a that_o this_o libel_n with_o many_o other_o late_o spread_v abroad_o be_v for_o no_o other_o end_n than_o the_o advancement_n of_o the_o papistical_a interest_n and_o the_o

effrontery_n to_o abuse_v a_o person_n so_o innocent_a and_o so_o considerable_a in_o the_o eye_n of_o all_o good_a man_n and_o loyal_a subject_n as_o the_o duke_n of_o monmouth_n this_o be_v the_o

unlawful_a how_o scandalous_a to_o good_a manner_n nor_o how_o contrary_a to_o morality_n or_o civility_n nay_o to_o all_o law_n and_o government_n so_o it_o may_v advance_v this_o interest_n which_o they_o so_o sedulous_o endeavour_v to_o promote_v and_o by_o remove_v all_o obstacle_n and_o defame_v all_o person_n from_o the_o high_a to_o the_o low_a that_o stand_v in_o their_o way_n in_o the_o last_o place_n as_o to_o the_o particular_a abuse_n to_o the_o duke_n of_o monmouth_n the_o end_n be_v like_o wise_a plain_a enough_o only_o because_o they_o judge_v he_o to_o be_v a_o obstacle_n and_o that_o no_o small_a one_o to_o the_o d._n succeed_v to_o the_o crown_n for_o otherwise_o malice_n itself_o can_v not_o object_v any_o thing_n to_o this_o noble_a person_n that_o may_v give_v
