A35009	The first part of Babel's-builders unmasking themselves as appears by the following judgment from Barbadoes (promoted by George Fox his party, and subscribed by eighty two of them) : with a letter of G.F.'s, G.W's, &c. in answer thereunto, and observations thereupon : also a false prophesie of that lying prophet, Sol. Eccles : whereas the following discourse was formerly printed and privately disposed ... amongst those called Quakers, but finding some of G.F.'s party have since publickly exposed it with slanderous and false charges on the author, this second impression with some small addition, is now made publick ... / Thomas Crisp.; Babel's-builders unmask't.

of_o any_o apostate_n or_o opposer_n they_o will_v make_v ill_a work_n with_o it_o and_o say_v that_o we_o set_v up_o a_o arbitrary_a power_n over_o man_n conscience_n and_o property_n and_o a_o
