B03939	An English answer to the Scotch speech. Shewing the intollerableness of tolleration in matters of religion. And converting each argument in that speech to its most reasonable, genuine, and proper use, and each paragraph into an argument against its author. / By W.K., a lover of loyalty, truth and tranquility ; and one who accounts it a dignity, as well as duty, to be an obedient son of the Church of England.

who_o seem_v to_o oppose_v it_o and_o then_o nothing_o will_v be_v so_o common_a as_o to_o cast_v reproach_n upon_o the_o high_a authority_n that_o shall_v dissent_v from_o they_o and_o to_o aver_v
