protestant_n neighbour_n let_v the_o world_n judge_v except_o they_o defy_v the_o pope_n and_o the_o devil_n and_o all_o their_o work_n of_o popish_a and_o hellish_a darkness_n plot_n and_o design_n

yet_o like_o another_o late_a usurper_n he_o can_v lay_v his_o hand_n upon_o the_o hilt_n of_o his_o two_o sword_n spiritual_a and_o temporal_a and_o cry_v this_o be_v my_o commission_n for_o if_o

reason_n be_v and_o they_o have_v find_v it_o by_o experience_n a_o most_o incomparable_a remedy_n they_o geld_v all_o the_o popish_a priest_n they_o catch_v in_o their_o kingdom_n and_o dominion_n they_o use_v to_o hang_v they_o former_o but_o that_o will_v not_o do_v for_o the_o hope_n of_o be_v canonize_v and_o saint_v as_o martyr_n drill_v some_o silly_a priest_n thither_o till_o a_o convert_a nun_n i_o know_v not_o from_o what_o experience_n persuade_v authority_n to_o geld_v all_o the_o popish_a priest_n they_o take_v they_o take_v her_o advice_n and_o it_o prove_v a_o wonderful_a cure_n and_o remedy_n against_o propagation_n of_o popery_n in_o these_o kingdom_n i_o say_v therefore_o it_o be_v senseless_a to_o doubt_v the_o be_v of_o a_o popish_a plot_n that_o never_o cease_v since_o the_o reign_n of_o hen._n 8._o in_o england_n but_o now_o by_o coleman_n letter_n it_o infallible_o appear_v that_o they_o never_o have_v such_o bless_a hope_n of_o convert_v
