A89832	Deceit brought to day-light: in an ansvver to Thomas Collier, vvhat he hath declared in a book called, A dialogue between a minister, and a Christian: but by his fruits hee is tryed and found to be neither. In which answer his lies are returned for the founder to prove; his errors laid open, read, and reproved, and he found to be the same in deeds which he accuses the Quakers to be in words. / Published in short for the souls sake, that the simplicity may bee preserved from the subtilty, lest any should believe lies, and so be given up to delusion, and bee damned, by a lover of truth, called, James Naylor.

but_o you_o have_v a_o imagination_n that_o christ_n be_v the_o light_n only_o to_o inlighten_v you_o that_o call_v yourselves_o believer_n but_o who_o must_v inlighten_v the_o rest_n christ_n say_v
