no_o popish_a but_o a_o presbyterian_a plot_n i_o doubt_v there_o be_v too_o many_o who_o account_v it_o loyalty_n to_o oppose_v every_o thing_n that_o the_o late_a parliament_n have_v do_v and_o though_o there_o be_v never_o so_o much_o reason_n in_o the_o thing_n yet_o if_o the_o parliament_n have_v a_o hand_n in_o it_o it_o be_v a_o sufficient_a ground_n to_o they_o to_o traduce_v it_o but_o though_o they_o be_v resolve_v to_o think_v amiss_o of_o what_o the_o parliament_n have_v do_v yet_o in_o the_o point_n of_o the_o popish_a plot_n they_o may_v allow_v the_o parliament_n to_o

understanding_n and_o observation_n that_o can_v see_v further_o into_o the_o matter_n than_o the_o king_n and_o parliament_n if_o there_o be_v any_o man_n that_o be_v acquaint_v with_o this_o

that_o they_o may_v no_o long_o continue_v to_o harbour_v a_o ill_a opinion_n of_o they_o who_o be_v not_o blame_v worthy_a he_o that_o can_v believe_v that_o there_o be_v no_o popish_a but_o a_o presbyterian_a plot_n must_v also_o believe_v that_o both_o the_o papist_n and_o presbyterian_o have_v now_o change_v their_o former_a principle_n and_o practice_n the_o principle_n of_o the_o papist_n be_v incomparable_o lay_v open_a by_o the_o bishop_n of_o lincoln_n by_o which_o every_o man_n may_v see_v how_o dangerous_a and_o destructive_a they_o be_v to_o all_o civil_a government_n and_o the_o church_n of_o rome_n hold_v it_o to_o be_v lawful_a to_o promote_v their_o interest_n by_o any_o way_n or_o mean_n though_o never_o so_o contrary_a to_o the_o word_n of_o god_n and_o common_a morality_n or_o honesty_n according_o it_o have_v be_v their_o practice_n which_o produce_v the_o parisian_a massacre_n where_o so_o many_o protestant_n be_v barbarous_o murder_v in_o one_o

their_o hand_n not_o one_o escape_v and_o all_o those_o perish_v in_o one_o month._n and_o the_o same_o measure_n we_o must_v have_v have_v if_o their_o plot_n have_v not_o be_v discover_v by_o which_o they_o have_v design_v to_o turn_v the_o whole_a land_n into_o a_o butcher_n shambles_n i_o do_v mention_v these_o particular_n as_o all_o the_o instance_n of_o their_o barbarous_a practice_n i_o only_o give_v you_o these_o as_o example_n of_o what_o they_o do_v elsewhere_o for_o in_o all_o place_n where_o they_o have_v endeavour_v to_o establish_v or_o propagate_v the_o romish_a doctrine_n and_o superstition_n it_o have_v be_v carry_v on_o by_o blood_n and_o cruelty_n which_o prove_v it_o to_o be_v a_o false_a religion_n for_o this_o be_v contrary_n to_o the_o precept_n and_o example_n of_o our_o saviour_n and_o his_o apostle_n who_o have_v recourse_n to_o no_o such_o thing_n when_o they_o propagate_v the_o christian_a faith_n but_o to_o strong_a reason_n and_o evident_a truth_n for_o it_o be_v not_o the_o way_n to_o convince_v man_n of_o the_o truth_n by_o hardship_n and_o severity_n for_o by_o such_o method_n we_o can_v only_o hope_v to_o make_v hypocrite_n but_o not_o to_o gain_v proselyte_n and_o beside_o it_o be_v a_o undervalue_v of_o the_o almighty_a power_n of_o god_n as_o if_o he_o stand_v in_o need_n of_o such_o assistance_n to_o establish_v his_o truth_n but_o the_o presbyterian_o be_v not_o of_o such_o principle_n they_o be_v willing_a to_o assist_v the_o government_n against_o the_o papist_n for_o they_o have_v no_o other_o interest_n and_o therefore_o i_o can_v believe_v they_o to_o be_v like_o the_o foolish_a woman_n that_o pull_v down_o her_o house_n with_o her_o hand_n and_o if_o we_o shall_v believe_v that_o their_o principle_n incline_v they_o to_o practice_v against_o the_o king_n and_o government_n i_o doubt_v it_o will_v cast_v a_o reflection_n upon_o that_o which_o we_o will_v be_v loath_a to_o hear_v ill_o speak_v of_o for_o as_o they_o differ_v from_o we_o only_o in_o some_o indifferent_a ceremony_n but_o agree_v with_o we_o in_o doctrine_n and_o fundamental_o therefore_o their_o interest_n be_v the_o same_o and_z according_o will_v their_o inclination_n carry_v they_o their_o practice_n prove_v they_o to_o be_v true_a to_o their_o king_n and_o firm_a to_o the_o government_n for_o when_o the_o popish_a subject_n have_v rebel_v against_o their_o king_n they_o have_v always_o stick_v to_o their_o prince_n and_o that_o too_o in_o popish_a country_n example_n hereof_o there_o be_v very_o many_o and_o the_o present_a french_a king_n on_o this_o score_n owe_v a_o great_a deal_n to_o they_o of_o the_o reform_a religion_n for_o when_o his_o popish_a subject_n rebel_v and_o will_v have_v set_v up_o another_o in_o his_o room_n they_o stick_v to_o he_o and_o settle_v he_o in_o the_o throne_n it_o be_v the_o presbyterian_o who_o be_v chief_o instrumental_a in_o his_o majesty_n restauration_n whilst_o other_o who_o call_v themselves_o the_o royal_a party_n sit_v still_o to_o see_v the_o game_n play_v and_o when_o they_o see_v which_o way_n the_o scale_n will_v turn_v be_v ready_a to_o applaud_v the_o victor_n let_v it_o fall_v to_o which_o side_n it_o will_v and_o his_o majesty_n be_v so_o sensible_a that_o the_o presbyterian_o be_v chief_v instrumental_a in_o that_o work_n that_o he_o declare_v himself_o in_o favour_n of_o they_o in_o these_o word_n from_o breda_n april_n 14._o 1660._o we_o do_v declare_v a_o liberty_n to_o tender_a conscience_n and_o that_o no_o man_n shall_v

so_o very_o long_o since_o that_o it_o can_v in_o probability_n be_v imagine_v that_o they_o shall_v now_o be_v so_o clean_o alter_v to_o the_o contrary_a as_o to_o practice_v against_o the_o king_n and_o government_n i_o do_v wonder_n that_o there_o be_v a_o noise_n of_o a_o presbyterian_a plot_n but_o it_o be_v some_o cause_n of_o admiration_n to_o i_o that_o so_o many_o seem_v to_o believe_v it_o i_o can_v tell_v what_o information_n other_o may_v have_v meet_v with_o whereby_o they_o be_v prevail_v upon_o to_o believe_v it_o but_o all_o that_o i_o can_v understand_v that_o have_v give_v ground_n for_o such_o a_o suspicion_n be_v the_o accusation_n against_o college_n and_o my_o lord_n shaftsbury_n which_o methinks_v be_v too_o slender_a a_o proof_n to_o charge_v so_o many_o thousand_o with_o a_o conspiracy_n against_o the_o king_n and_o government_n for_o in_o the_o trial_n both_o of_o college_n and_o my_o lord_n shaftsbury_n it_o be_v not_o so_o much_o as_o attempt_v to_o prove_v a_o plot_n in_o general_a though_o at_o colledge_n trial_n it_o be_v urge_v that_o that_o method_n will_v be_v the_o more_o regular_a proceed_n but_o in_o both_o the_o trial_n the_o evidence_n be_v level_v against_o they_o chief_o without_o fetch_v in_o such_o number_n as_o be_v necessary_a to_o make_v it_o a_o plot_n of_o the_o presbyterian_o i_o shall_v not_o say_v any_o thing_n whether_o the_o evidence_n against_o both_o or_o either_o swear_v true_a or_o not_o nor_o of_o the_o improbability_n of_o some_o of_o they_o but_o this_o i_o think_v i_o may_v say_v that_o the_o thing_n chief_o insist_v on_o against_o either_o of_o they_o be_v only_a indiscretion_n commit_v by_o they_o sure_o then_o it_o will_v be_v very_o severe_a to_o charge_v so_o great_a a_o part_n of_o the_o nation_n with_o a_o plot_n because_o my_o lord_n shaftsbury_n and_o college_n have_v overshoot_v themselves_o if_o all_o be_v true_a that_o be_v swear_v against_o they_o it_o be_v no_o new_a thing_n for_o the_o papist_n to_o put_v sham-plot_n upon_o other_o and_o the_o papist_n be_v never_o near_o to_o execute_v a_o plot_n of_o their_o own_o than_o when_o there_o be_v the_o

dangerous_a time_n to_o put_v the_o law_n in_o execution_n against_o the_o papist_n because_o there_o be_v example_n where_o magistrate_n some_o have_v be_v murder_v other_o attempt_v to_o be_v assassinate_v for_o put_v the_o law_n in_o execution_n against_o the_o papist_n and_o because_o we_o appear_v to_o be_v zealous_a in_o it_o therefore_o this_o care_n be_v take_v off_o we_o i_o suppose_v that_o may_v be_v the_o chief_a reason_n why_o i_o be_v put_v out_o because_o i_o have_v help_v to_o convict_v above_o five_o thousand_o papist_n in_o lancashire_n and_o furthermore_o it_o be_v necessary_a to_o know_v how_o we_o stand_v in_o the_o thought_n of_o our_o countryman_n whether_o they_o have_v a_o good_a opinion_n of_o we_o now_o we_o be_v turn_v out_o of_o office_n because_o it_o look_v like_o a_o design_v disgrace_n for_o my_o part_n it_o have_v gain_v i_o ground_n and_o i_o believe_v every_o gentleman_n else_o find_v his_o countryman_n not_o to_o esteem_v the_o worse_a of_o he_o i_o rather_o think_v better_a therefore_o see_v our_o country_n believe_v we_o to_o be_v honest_a man_n there_o be_v no_o great_a question_n but_o we_o shall_v be_v in_o great_a esteem_n at_o whitehall_n now_o they_o have_v have_v this_o trial_n of_o we_o for_o whitehall_n be_v very_o apt_a to_o incline_v to_o the_o opinion_n of_o the_o country_n and_o that_o cart_n be_v not_o well_o upon_o the_o wheel_n when_o it_o be_v otherwise_o therefore_o for_o my_o part_n i_o be_o very_o thankful_a that_o i_o be_o put_v out_o i_o will_v assure_v you_o i_o find_v my_o purse_n the_o full_a for_o it_o and_o i_o find_v my_o country_n to_o pay_v i_o altogether_o as_o much_o respect_n if_o not_o more_o than_o former_o there_o be_v but_o one_o thing_n that_o i_o grudge_v to_o part_v with_o and_o that_o be_v the_o office_n of_o custos_fw-la rotulorum_fw-la which_o have_v be_v in_o my_o family_n for_o several_a generation_n and_o for_o that_o i_o hope_v a_o particular_a reason_n may_v

for_o to_o judge_v a_o man_n unheard_a be_v not_o allow_v by_o the_o law_n and_o what_o be_v it_o but_o to_o judge_v a_o man_n reputation_n a_o thing_n most_o dear_a to_o every_o honest_a man_n for_o

see_v very_o plain_o who_o and_o what_o sort_n of_o person_n rule_v the_o roast_a by_o all_o the_o inquiry_n i_o can_v make_v i_o do_v not_o find_v that_o any_o man_n be_v put_v out_o but_o such_o
