in_o the_o hand_n of_o papist_n it_o be_v true_a that_o when_o any_o one_o presume_v to_o speak_v public_o of_o religion_n he_o be_v put_v from_o his_o pulpit_n if_o not_o from_o his_o benefice_n it_o

that_o his_o father-in-law_n permit_v the_o exercise_n of_o the_o roman_a religion_n in_o england_n as_o it_o be_v in_o holland_n this_o be_v false_a mijn_n heer_n fagel_n letter_n be_v pen_v to_o

this_o it_o be_v notorious_o know_v that_o the_o toleration_n of_o papist_n in_o holland_n be_v not_o establish_v by_o any_o law_n nor_o by_o any_o decree_n suspend_v the_o law_n it_o be_v well_o

of_o religion_n as_o it_o be_v in_o holland_n but_o by_o a_o express_a cessation_n of_o the_o law_n themselves_o in_o the_o three_o place_n he_o do_v false_o suppose_v that_o the_o king_n of_o

last_o he_o be_v infinite_o mistake_v when_o he_o compare_v the_o quality_n of_o the_o toleration_n of_o the_o popish_a religion_n that_o be_v admit_v in_o holland_n to_o that_o which_o he_o will_v
