A67646	A defence of the innocency of the lives, practice, and doctrine of the English preists [sic], Jesuits, and papists relating to the crimes of murther and treason, vnjustly charged on them by E.C. in his narrative wherein are discouered his grosse mistakes, his wilfull falsifications, his shamefull falshoodes, and his groundlesse vniust accusations of the English papists.	Warner, John, 1628-1692.	1680 (1680)	Wing W908A; ESTC R221952	27,739	33

that_o we_o have_v long_o since_o reject_v these_o doctrine_n if_o there_o be_v ever_o any_o such_o among_o we_o and_o i_o challenge_v protestant_n to_o show_n any_o papist_n alive_a who_o do_v teach_v they_o whereas_o the_o protestant_n retain_v the_o same_o unretract_v uncondemned_a to_o this_o moment_n &_o upon_o occasion_n spread_v they_o a_o new_a as_o that_o seditious_a maxim_n of_o the_o wicleffist_n of_o which_o i_o have_v speak_v which_o oat_n have_v print_v in_o the_o dedicatory_a of_o his_o narrative_n to_o the_o king_n himself_o whence_o follow_v a_o three_o difference_n that_o what_o be_v find_v blame_n worthy_a in_o our_o predecessor_n can_v be_v lay_v to_o our_o charge_n see_v we_o neither_o practice_n nor_o teach_v it_o nay_o our_o prelate_n have_v condemn_v it_o as_o we_o shall_v see_v at_o the_o end_n of_o this_o preface_n whereas_o protestant_n be_v answerable_a for_o the_o doctrine_n of_o their_o fore_n father_n and_o all_o the_o pernicious_a consequence_n flow_v from_o they_o because_o they_o never_o condemn_v or_o disown_v they_o but_o do_v still_o approve_v of_o they_o wherefore_o see_v nothing_o can_v be_v with_o justice_n charge_v on_o english_a catholic_n for_o who_o alone_o i_o plead_v see_v their_o life_n be_v so_o clear_a from_o sin_n &_o their_o doctrine_n from_o error_n that_o neither_o can_v be_v blame_v without_o a_o calumny_n nor_o our_o reputation_n wound_v but_o through_o the_o side_n of_o truth_n let_v oat_n &_o prance_v euerard_n &_o dugdale_n smith_n &_o jenison_n bolron_n dangerfield_n &_o e._n c._n one_o for_o any_o thing_n i_o know_v like_o the_o rest_n multiply_v their_o narrative_n as_o often_o as_o they_o please_v &_o stuff_n they_o with_o calumny_n to_o as_o great_a a_o bulk_n as_o their_o little_a wit_n &_o great_a malice_n will_v permit_v the_o only_a effect_n of_o those_o libel_n will_v be_v to_o cloud_v our_o reputation_n from_o the_o eye_n of_o the_o people_n for_o a_o time_n &_o give_v they_o some_o bad_a impression_n of_o we_o yet_o our_o innocency_n will_v disperse_v those_o mist_n &_o shine_v so_o bright_o as_o to_o be_v conspicuous_a to_o the_o whole_a world_n and_o the_o people_n itself_o who_o their_o minister_n seduce_v with_o these_o fable_n &_o disingenuous_a art_n will_v give_v to_o we_o &_o to_o the_o libeler_n their_o due_n to_o we_o in_o acquit_v we_o of_o the_o crime_n charge_v unjust_o upon_o we_o &_o to_o they_o by_o find_v they_o guilty_a of_o uncharitable_a lie_n at_o the_o private_a tribunal_n of_o each_o one_o judgement_n it_o be_v uncertain_a when_o we_o may_v expect_v to_o see_v a_o end_n of_o these_o dispute_n betwixt_o our_o innocency_n and_o their_o malice_n nothing_o put_v a_o stop_n to_o the_o false_a accusation_n of_o the_o author_n of_o the_o first_o &_o great_a narrative_n but_o his_o loss_n of_o credit_n by_o the_o open_a discovery_n of_o his_o lie_n a_o like_a loss_n of_o credit_n may_v happy_o put_v astop_n to_o the_o pen_n of_o these_o libeler_n and_o i_o doubt_v not_o but_o the_o better_a part_n of_o our_o nation_n will_v be_v glad_a to_o see_v truth_n assert_v against_o falshood_n &_o innocency_n triumph_v over_o
