A88697	Lanseter's lance, for Edwards'es gangrene: or, A ripping up, and laying open some rotten, putrified, corrupt, stinking matter in Mr. Thomas Edwards his Gangren, or book intituled, The second part of Gangrena. Wherein, amongst others, he hath abused and belied Mr. John Lanceter, calling him pedler, and saying, that he opened the whole book of Ezra, at a privat meeting in stead of opening his pack, which is proved false, and other things also. So that in consideration of the particulars, judicious men may well conceive the cause of his Gangren to be his blind ignorance of the truth, and his mad malice against the wel-affected conscientious people.

begin_v but_o they_o hold_v to_o their_o agreement_n to_o persuade_v i_o then_o i_o see_v it_o be_v their_o earnest_a desire_n and_o so_o i_o do_v apprehend_v it_o to_o be_v a_o call_n of_o god_n

like_v the_o motion_n very_o well_o then_o we_o join_v together_o and_o seek_v god_n for_o a_o blessing_n upon_o our_o come_n together_o and_o that_o he_o will_v give_v we_o to_o understand_v his_o
