think_v any_o man_n innocence_n a_o sufficient_a security_n while_o he_o expose_v priest-craft_n i_o shall_v content_v myself_o to_o give_v but_o one_o example_n but_o that_o a_o illustrious_a one_o to_o justify_v my_o opinion_n when_o king_n john_n begin_v to_o set_v his_o face_n direct_o against_o the_o corruption_n the_o priest-craft_n corruption_n of_o the_o church_n of_o rome_n a_o parcel_n of_o ungracious_a monk_n can_v not_o bear_v it_o not_o they_o no_o not_o from_o their_o sovereign_n therefore_o they_o poison_v he_o with_o the_o sacrament_n of_o the_o altar_n and_o when_o they_o have_v do_v they_o write_v his_o history_n and_o publish_v he_o for_o a_o wicked_a and_o atheistical_a a_o foolish_a and_o tyrannical_a prince_n yet_o protestant_n author_n give_v he_o a_o better_a character_n and_o there_o be_v circumstance_n which_o will_v incline_v a_o unprejudiced_a man_n to_o believe_v that_o this_o king_n deserve_v it_o i_o do_v not_o think_v to_o have_v give_v another_o instance_n but_o just_a as_o i_o be_o write_v this_o there_o come_v into_o my_o head_n a_o very_a remarkable_a one_o which_o also_o have_v a_o particular_a circumstance_n fit_a for_o mr._n att._n to_o consider_v so_o that_o i_o know_v not_o how_o to_o pass_v it_o by_o pausanias_n in_o his_o baeotics_n give_v a_o accurate_a description_n of_o trophonius_n antrum_n and_o say_v that_o he_o himself_o consult_v the_o oracle_n there_o now_o pausanias_n be_v a_o grammarian_n of_o caesarea_n in_o cappadocia_n and_o live_v in_o the_o second_o century_n so_o that_o by_o mr._n at_o his_o favour_n oracle_n do_v not_o cease_v at_o the_o come_n of_o christ_n which_o anthony_n van_n dal●_n have_v prove_v beyond_o all_o contradiction_n but_o to_o my_o instance_n pausanias_n declare_v by_o what_o rite_n and_o ceremony_n they_o prepare_v themselves_o who_o to_o consult_v the_o oracle_n will_v descend_v into_o the_o cave_n and_o how_o they_o return_v back_o by_o the_o same_o hole_n they_o go_v down_o their_o foot_n foremost_a then_o have_v he_o these_o word_n 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d etc._n etc._n they_o say_v that_o none_o ever_o miscarry_v in_o the_o cave_n but_o that_o all_o return_v that_o go_v down_o except_o one_o only_o one_o of_o demetrius_n halbadiers_n now_o that_o fellow_n have_v not_o run_v through_o the_o ritual_a course_n of_o preparation_n for_o the_o descent_n and_o descend_v like_o a_o ungracious_a fellow_n as_o he_o be_v not_o to_o consult_v the_o oracle_n but_o to_o discover_v the_o priest-craft_n he_o therefore_o for_o this_o unpardonable_a sin_n the_o priest_n of_o trophonius_n make_v away_o know_v that_o the_o dead_a tell_v no_o tale_n his_o body_n be_v afterward_o find_v the_o lord_n know_v how_o far_o from_o the_o mouth_n of_o the_o cave_n and_o then_o they_o write_v his_o history_n the_o substance_n whereof_o be_v this_o that_o he_o be_v a_o profane_a scorner_n who_o with_o much_o ado_n have_v make_v a_o shift_n to_o get_v rid_v of_o good_a principle_n and_o such_o stiff_a opinion_n as_o he_o find_v inconsistent_a with_o a_o soldier_n be_v life_n and_o that_o he_o know_v very_o little_a of_o the_o divine_a mystery_n of_o the_o god_n by_o reason_n he_o be_v a_o proud_a suspicious_a witty_a sensual_a fellow_n the_o three_o and_o last_o thing_n to_o be_v inquire_v be_v to_o who_o sir_n r._n h._n be_v beholden_a that_o

for_o than_o it_o will_v have_v restrain_v he_o also_o from_o a_o scandalous_a sermon_n much_o less_o be_v it_o any_o reverence_n to_o sir_n r._n h._n as_o be_v a_o person_n of_o honour_n and_o a_o
