of_o presbytery_n dear_a friend_n that_o be_v enemy_n to_o that_o monster_n of_o the_o presbyterian_a government_n i_o must_v now_o confess_v that_o it_o be_v such_o a_o devout_a monster_n that_o i_o hope_v the_o people_n of_o england_n will_v not_o set_v it_o up_o for_o by_o it_o the_o priest_n that_o labour_v with_o might_n and_o main_a to_o set_v it_o up_o who_o ever_o be_v loose_a by_o it_o

that_o you_o do_v nothing_o but_o truth_n in_o resist_v that_o scottish_a monster_n although_o when_o i_o be_v with_o you_o you_o do_v tell_v i_o for_o my_o good_a that_o it_o be_v a_o land-devourer_n which_o now_o i_o find_v that_o your_o word_n be_v very_o true_a therefore_o now_o my_o dear_a friend_n take_v the_o view_n of_o the_o presbyterian_a priest_n and_o compare_v their_o practice_n to_o the_o word_n and_o see_v how_o oppressive_a they_o be_v look_v upon_o the_o 18_o of_o deuterinomy_n and_o the_o 3_o ver_fw-la that_o when_o a_o sacrifice_n be_v to_o be_v offer_v up_o the_o priest_n be_v to_o have_v the_o shoulder_n the_o two_o cheek_n and_o the_o maw_n and_o yet_o they_o will_v say_v that_o it_o be_v jewish_a but_o shall_v i_o tell_v you_o why_o it_o be_v ●ewish_a it_o be_v because_o their_o portion_n be_v too_o little_a if_o it_o be_v the_o half_a or_o the_o 3_o part_n of_o ●t_a than_o it_o be_v somewhat_o like_a look_v likewise_o in_o the_o 1_o of_o sam._n the_o 2_o and_o 13._o 14_o ver_fw-la for_o the_o priest_n custom_n towards_o the_o people_n be_v this_o when_o a_o man_n offer_v sacrifice_v the_o the_o priest_n boy_n come_v while_o the_o flesh_n be_v seethe_v with_o the_o flesh_n hook_n i●_n his_o hand_n with_o 3_o tooth_n in_o it_o and_o thrust_v it_o into_o the_o kettle_n pan_n cauldron_n or_o pot_n and_o all_o that_o the_o flesh-hooke_n bring_v up_o be_v for_o the_o priest_n but_o what_o now_o if_o he_o take_v up_o all_o must_v the_o people_n have_v nothing_o but_o the_o broth_n nay_o true_o they_o may_v be_v glad_a if_o they_o can_v get_v that_o for_o covetuousnes_n be_v a_o thing_n that_o run_v general_o to_o all_o look_v in_o the_o 6._o of_o jeremiah_n the_o 13._o verse_n from_o the_o least_o of_o they_o even_o to_o the_o great_a of_o they_o every_o one_o be_v give_v to_o covetuousnesse_n from_o the_o prophet_n to_o the_o priest_n they_o all_o deal_n false_o look_v like_o wise_a in_o the_o 22._o of_o ezek._n the_o 25._o verse_n they_o devour_v soul_n and_o in_o the_o 28._o verse_n they_o have_v daub_v with_o untempered_a mortar_n see_v vanity_n and_o divine_a lie_n unto_o they_o say_v thus_o say_v the_o lord_n when_o the_o lord_n have_v not_o speak_v now_o in_o the_o same_o kind_n do_v the_o priest_n of_o england_n they_o say_v that_o their_o borrow_a scottish_a monster_n of_o bitterness_n itself_o be_v from_o god_n and_o that_o god_n have_v reveal_v it_o to_o they_o when_o indeed_o the_o lord_n have_v not_o speak_v to_o they_o they_o will_v fain_o make_v the_o people_n believe_v what_o they_o please_v and_o if_o they_o say_v it_o be_v truth_n the_o people_n must_v believe_v it_o consider_v that_o 3._o of_o micah_n and_o 11._o verse_n the_o head_n thereof_o judge_v for_o a_o reward_n the_o priest_n thereof_o teach_v for_o high_a the_o prophet_n thereof_o prophesy_v for_o m●ny_n yet_o will_v they_o leave_v upon_o the_o lord_n and_o say_v be_v not_o the_o lord_n among_o we_o no_o evil_n can_v come_v upon_o we_o i_o pray_v god_n that_o text_n be_v not_o true_a of_o the_o judge_n priest_n and_o prophet_n of_o england_n and_o so_o be_v like_o they_o of_o the_o house_n of_o israel_n and_o so_o the_o old_a proverb_n be_v make_v upon_o they_o never_o a_o barrel_n better_a herring_n and_o true_o my_o friend_n shall_v i_o tell_v you_o why_o my_o antichristian_a brethren_n do_v hate_v the_o godly_a people_n of_o this_o city_n and_o kingdom_n i_o will_v tell_v you_o it_o be_v because_o they_o be_v not_o of_o this_o world_n even_o as_o christ_n be_v not_o of_o this_o world_n for_o can_v the_o saint_n of_o god_n hold_v with_o they_o in_o their_o wicked_a design_n that_o they_o prosecute_v than_o they_o shall_v be_v one_o of_o they_o and_o be_v very_o much_o respect_v by_o they_o but_o see_v that_o these_o oppose_v their_o scotch_a government_n they_o shall_v be_v oppose_v i_o have_v hear_v many_o say_v when_o i_o be_v with_o you_o that_o when_o it_o do_v rain_v slow_o we_o will_v say_v that_o it_o be_v but_o a_o scottish_a mist_n but_o it_o will_v wet_v a_o englishman_n to_o the_o skin_n so_o now_o i_o must_v confess_v and_o say_v of_o their_o government_n that_o it_o be_v but_o a_o scottish_a one_o but_o if_o it_o be_v erect_v in_o england_n it_o will_v rend_v and_o tear_v and_o divide_v the_o kingdom_n it_o will_v turn_v it_o upside_o down_o and_o therefore_o now_o my_o love_a friend_n that_o be_v to_o i_o i_o mean_v the_o synod_n do_v you_o but_o know_v what_o now_o i_o suffer_v by_o press_v man_n conscience_n to_o that_o scotch_a faction_n you_o will_v desist_v &_o prosecute_v that_o ill_n beget_v monster_n of_o presbyter_n no_o further_o therefore_o let_v my_o torment_n though_o unseen_a and_o unfelt_a by_o you_o be_v such_o a_o example_n to_o you_o that_o you_o may_v for_o ever_o bless_v god_n that_o sir_n john_n presbyter_n decease_a and_o that_o his_o ghost_n shall_v communicate_v such_o evil_n as_o be_v wrap_v up_o in_o that_o government_n for_o true_o i_o must_v confess_v that_o it_o be_v heretical_a and_o obnoxious_a and_o will_v undo_v king_n and_o state_n you_o all_o know_v that_o i_o do_v as_o much_o labour_n to_o bring_v it_o about_o to_o erect_v it_o as_o ever_o you_o can_v do_v but_o now_o find_v that_o it_o be_v so_o abusive_a both_o to_o god_n and_o saint_n that_o be_v i_o now_o among_o you_o again_o instead_o of_o set_v of_o it_o out_o in_o pomp_n and_o glory_n i_o will_v discover_v the_o ill_a consequence_n that_o be_v in_o it_o for_o true_o when_o i_o be_v as_o one_o of_o you_o what_o do_v we_o labour_v but_o only_o to_o get_v wealth_n into_o our_o own_o keep_n although_o it_o be_v to_o the_o woe_n and_o grief_n of_o the_o inhabitant_n of_o england_n nay_o our_o holy_a convocasion_n that_o be_v in_o king_n henry_n the_o 7._o chappill_v what_o do_v we_o treat_v on_o there_o but_o only_o to_o tie_v man_n conscience_n to_o what_o we_o believe_v and_o if_o we_o believe_v that_o the_o church_n of_o rome_n be_v a_o true_a church_n the_o people_n must_v believe_v it_o or_o else_o they_o shall_v be_v banish_v we_o think_v then_o that_o our_o design_n be_v gallant_o carry_v on_o if_o we_o can_v get_v mr._n henry_n wilkinson_n to_o treat_v with_o stapleton_n manchester_n and_o hollis_n to_o carry_v on_o our_o wicked_a design_n we_o can_v make_v they_o believe_v that_o white_a be_v black_a and_o black_a be_v white_a and_o they_o be_v intoxicate_v by_o the_o priest_n can_v intoxicate_a the_o truth_n of_o their_o unjust_a never_o the_o like_a hear_v of_o practice_n in_o the_o brain_n of_o other_o and_o they_o must_v believe_v it_o because_o it_o come_v from_o the_o priest_n and_o so_o of_o necessity_n it_o must_v be_v truth_n and_o so_o the_o poor_a people_n must_v believe_v that_o the_o minister_n can_v err_v even_o as_o the_o priest_n believe_v that_o the_o pope_n can_v err_v but_o to_o another_o of_o the_o same_o faction_n o_o mr._n love_n true_o it_o be_v to_o be_v fear_v nay_o i_o be_o confident_a that_o you_o love_v yourself_o more_o than_o the_o glory_n of_o god_n why_o do_v you_o still_o persist_v and_o incense_v the_o people_n against_o the_o army_n in_o tell_v they_o that_o
