A62900	The principles of the Papists by which their leaders put them upon bloody and treacherous practices, plainly demonstrated by the Scriptures to be most erroneous and wicked. And a few better principles briefly laid down, for them (or others) to meditate on, tending to a peaceable life among men, &c. And also a few quæries left them last of all, to satisfie their consciences in. Partly for the sakes of those among them whose consciences have some tenderness in them, and are not quite feared: partly also for those who through ignorance are too much inclining to them. Also there may be some service of these things to others. By a lover of truth, mercifulness, plain-heartedness, humility and fidelity, W. T.

2.21_o hence_o we_o may_v infer_v that_o it_o be_v needful_a that_o man_n know_v the_o scripture_n that_o they_o may_v be_v acquaint_v with_o the_o life_n and_o conversation_n of_o christ_n and_o so_o
