A91066	The proper and most effectual cure of Popery, both real and mistaken, in the nation		1705 (1705)	Wing P3666A; ESTC N40249	2,514	4

the_o proper_a and_o most_o effectual_a cure_v of_o popery_n both_o real_a and_o mistake_v in_o this_o nation_n it_o be_v certain_a and_o apparent_a to_o all_o consider_a people_n that_o the_o great_a trouble_n with_o which_o this_o nation_n and_o indeed_o most_o part_n of_o europe_n have_v be_v afflict_v for_o more_o than_o 150_o year_n last_o pass_v have_v proceed_v from_o or_o be_v promote_v by_o the_o controversy_n concern_v such_o matter_n of_o religion_n as_o be_v common_o call_v popery_n and_o it_o be_v a_o certain_a and_o apparent_a that_o all_o those_o controversy_n arise_v from_o or_o be_v occasion_v by_o the_o usurpation_n corruption_n and_o scandal_n of_o the_o papacy_n and_o papal_a faction_n of_o which_o many_o of_o the_o most_o learned_a and_o true_o religious_a person_n in_o all_o nation_n complain_v long_o before_o so_o that_o it_o can_v be_v deny_v that_o there_o be_v great_a need_n of_o a_o reformation_n when_o what_o be_v now_o so_o call_v be_v begin_v and_o it_o be_v also_o certain_a that_o though_o a_o free_a general_n council_n be_v earnest_o desire_v both_o by_o prince_n and_o people_n by_o laity_n and_o clergy_n for_o a_o orderly_a reformation_n it_o be_v more_o than_o 20_o year_n delay_v before_o any_o session_n can_v be_v have_v and_o then_o be_v continue_v and_o keep_v on_o foot_n for_o 18_o year_n more_o before_o it_o be_v conclude_v and_o so_o manage_v the_o while_n that_o instead_o of_o reform_v or_o compose_v difference_n much_o of_o the_o matter_n complain_v of_o be_v establish_v and_o the_o difference_n make_v irreconcilable_a while_o the_o authority_n of_o that_o council_n be_v maintain_v a_o council_n which_o consist_v but_o of_o 270_o prelate_n in_o all_o in_o all_o that_o time_n and_o of_o they_o 187_o italian_n most_o very_a ignorant_a and_o but_o 83_o not_o a_o three_o part_n of_o all_o other_o nation_n and_o some_o only_a titular_a and_o mere_a agent_n for_o the_o papacy_n diverse_a indigent_a pensioner_n to_o the_o pope_n and_o but_o part_n and_o no_o great_a part_n of_o those_o at_o most_o session_n such_o be_v this_o free_a general_n council_n but_o it_o be_v as_o certain_a and_o apparent_a again_o on_o the_o other_o side_n that_o that_o necessary_a work_n of_o reformation_n be_v so_o disorderly_o manage_v that_o it_o remain_v a_o very_a imperfect_a work_n and_o not_o without_o much_o deformation_n in_o all_o part_n where_o it_o have_v be_v promote_v to_o this_o day_n and_o though_o the_o fault_n of_o this_o may_v in_o great_a measure_n be_v just_o chargeable_a upon_o the_o perverseness_n and_o obstinacy_n of_o the_o papal_a faction_n yet_o so_o it_o be_v and_o be_v apparent_o so_o even_o by_o the_o difference_n and_o contention_n which_o be_v continue_v or_o rather_o daily_o increase_v among_o all_o the_o pretender_n to_o reformation_n though_o all_o be_v ready_a to_o join_v against_o the_o papist_n as_o their_o common_a enemy_n so_o that_o these_o two_o party_n be_v like_o two_o mastiff_n worry_v one_o another_o and_o neither_o can_v get_v the_o victory_n because_o equal_o match_v by_o reason_n of_o fault_n on_o both_o side_n and_o something_o of_o truth_n on_o each_o side_n which_o support_v they_o and_o neither_o will_v be_v persuade_v to_o see_v or_o if_o they_o do_v see_v to_o reform_v what_o be_v amiss_o on_o their_o side_n that_o truth_n alone_o may_v prevail_v the_o fault_n be_v on_o the_o one_o side_n papal_a corruption_n and_o innovation_n maintain_v as_o catholic_n truth_n which_o be_v real_a popery_n distinct_a from_o what_o be_v true_o catholic_n on_o the_o other_o catholic_n truth_n oppose_v as_o popery_n which_o be_v mistake_v popery_n and_o the_o irresistible_a truth_n between_o they_o both_o what_o be_v true_o catholic_n this_o neither_o can_v withstand_v and_o therefore_o so_o far_o as_o it_o be_v retain_v be_v the_o strength_n of_o that_o party_n against_o the_o other_o and_o where_o it_o be_v entire_o retain_v without_o mixture_n though_o by_o never_o so_o small_a a_o party_n can_v be_v resist_v with_o any_o evidence_n of_o truth_n or_o sound_a reason_n or_o oppose_v with_o any_o thing_n but_o force_n and_o violence_n or_o falsehood_n lie_v and_o calumny_n of_o this_o i_o myself_o by_o the_o grace_n and_o secret_a conduct_n of_o god_n have_v have_v considerable_a experience_n and_o give_v a_o sensible_a experiment_n and_o such_o a_o manifestation_n of_o his_o truth_n against_o the_o corruption_n on_o each_o side_n as_o neither_o have_v be_v able_a to_o gainsay_v or_o resist_v the_o one_o side_n have_v not_o be_v able_a to_o resist_v the_o power_n of_o truth_n but_o with_o most_o shameful_a lie_n and_o calumny_n one_o of_o the_o great_a evidence_n of_o a_o powerful_a conviction_n nor_o the_o other_o to_o maintain_v or_o defend_v their_o own_o cause_n by_o true_a catholic_n principle_n or_o other_o than_o false_a and_o sophistical_a argument_n as_o i_o have_v already_o in_o part_n make_v appear_v in_o my_o true_a account_n etc._n etc._n and_o shall_v more_o full_o to_o undeniable_a conviction_n if_o i_o may_v have_v that_o encouragement_n which_o be_v but_o reasonable_a and_o necessary_a it_o be_v true_a violent_a prejudice_n against_o mistake_v popery_n have_v bring_v forth_o no_o less_o mischief_n scandal_n shame_n and_o confusion_n in_o these_o nation_n than_o real_a popery_n have_v in_o other_o part_n of_o europe_n but_o it_o be_v real_a popery_n continue_v among_o we_o which_o have_v be_v the_o original_a and_o be_v the_o continue_a incentive_a of_o that_o prejudice_n and_o jealousy_n which_o have_v produce_v these_o violent_a proceed_n and_o therefore_o though_o a_o just_a and_o complete_a cure_n of_o this_o prejudice_n against_o mistake_v popery_n will_v of_o itself_o be_v the_o most_o effectual_a cure_n of_o the_o real_a not_o only_o in_o these_o nation_n but_o in_o our_o neighbour_n even_o france_n itself_o yet_o since_o that_o be_v hard_o to_o be_v remove_v while_o the_o other_o remain_v there_o be_v a_o necessity_n that_o the_o application_n be_v more_o effectual_o to_o that_o of_o real_a popery_n and_o that_o complete_o effect_v will_v of_o itself_o allay_v the_o prejudice_n and_o facilitate_v the_o cure_n of_o the_o other_o also_o this_o necessity_n be_v bring_v upon_o we_o by_o the_o craft_n and_o policy_n of_o the_o papal_a faction_n and_o their_o agent_n who_o know_v very_o well_o that_o if_o those_o fault_n on_o our_o side_n be_v heal_v they_o shall_v have_v nothing_o against_o we_o nor_o be_v able_a to_o withstand_v so_o complete_a and_o prevalent_a a_o testimony_n against_o they_o and_o this_o be_v the_o true_a reason_n why_o diverse_a zealote_v for_o the_o roman_a faction_n who_o be_v sensible_a of_o this_o secret_a look_v upon_o king_n charles_n i._n and_o archbishop_n laud_n and_o other_o as_o their_o great_a enemy_n because_o they_o be_v sensible_a of_o the_o mistake_n and_o desire_v and_o endeavour_v as_o far_o as_o the_o madness_n of_o the_o people_n will_v permit_v to_o have_v it_o rectify_v which_o these_o zealote_v well_o know_v will_v have_v great_o endanger_v their_o cause_n by_o leave_v they_o nothing_o solid_a and_o defensible_a on_o their_o side_n to_o support_v it_o and_o this_o be_v not_o the_o least_o part_n of_o the_o project_n of_o the_o representer_n my_o visitant_n in_o his_o pretend_a letter_n from_o a_o dissenter_n to_o the_o divine_n of_o the_o church_n of_o england_n in_o order_n to_o a_o union_n who_o endeavour_v thereby_o not_o only_o to_o gratify_v his_o own_o private_a

the_o public_a service_n of_o the_o faction_n by_o revive_v and_o exciting_a the_o old_a jealousy_n and_o prejudice_n which_o have_v before_o be_v so_o serviceable_a to_o it_o and_o for_o the_o same_o
