will_v say_v that_o they_o have_v natural_o a_o great_a affection_n for_o the_o french_a than_o any_o other_o nation_n but_o because_o they_o have_v for_o some_o year_n esteem_v the_o french_a king_n to_o be_v the_o most_o powerful_a and_o the_o most_o ambitious_a monarch_n of_o europe_n of_o the_o romish_a persuasion_n and_o consequent_o the_o most_o likely_a to_o attempt_v the_o expulsion_n of_o the_o british_a out_o of_o that_o country_n and_o as_o they_o fond_o imagine_v to_o restore_v they_o to_o their_o pretend_a ancient_a estate_n and_o liberty_n which_o be_v the_o same_o reason_n that_o induce_v they_o to_o be_v so_o fond_a of_o the_o spaniard_n in_o the_o reign_n of_o queen_n elizabeth_n and_o notwithstanding_o that_o there_o have_v be_v all_o along_o the_o war_n considerable_a

become_v master_n of_o ireland_n the_o church_n which_o be_v now_o establish_v there_o must_v inevitable_o be_v ruin_v which_o indeed_o be_v the_o main_a consideration_n that_o engage_v i_o in_o this_o undertake_n i_o hear_v the_o question_n propose_v since_o i_o come_v to_o london_n what_o the_o church_n have_v to_o do_v with_o trade_n or_o how_o a_o law_n concern_v the_o woollen_a

be_v different_a and_o do_v not_o stand_v upon_o the_o same_o basis_n with_o the_o establish_a english_a law_n of_o that_o kingdom_n and_o i_o think_v it_o may_v as_o well_o have_v be_v ask_v what_o it_o concern_v the_o church_n of_o england_n if_o the_o grand_a fleet_n have_v be_v burn_v by_o the_o french_a in_o the_o late_a war_n or_o the_o church_n of_o spain_n if_o the_o galleon_n have_v be_v

direct_a answer_n to_o it_o i_o have_v already_o show_v how_o far_o this_o statute_n must_v affect_v the_o laity_n of_o the_o establish_a church_n of_o ireland_n and_o shall_v now_o endeavour_v to_o

if_o the_o nobility_n gentry_n and_o commonalty_n of_o that_o or_o any_o other_o nation_n be_v reduce_v to_o a_o low_a ebb_n of_o fortune_n the_o clergy_n must_v by_o necessary_a consequence_n bear_v a_o part_n in_o the_o common_a suffering_n except_o that_o part_n of_o the_o world_n where_o the_o church_n have_v engross_v all_o to_o herself_o and_o make_v the_o country_n poor_a and_o miserable_a and_o it_o be_v not_o long_o since_o we_o have_v by_o fatal_a experience_n find_v this_o to_o be_v true_a in_o ireland_n but_o for_o great_a evidence_n sake_n i_o shall_v endeavour_v to_o show_v the_o method_n by_o which_o that_o church_n be_v ruin_v to_o that_o degree_n that_o the_o clergy_n who_o live_v in_o those_o part_n of_o the_o country_n where_o the_o irish_a principal_o inhabit_v have_v for_o two_o year_n before_o the_o war_n little_o more_o than_o the_o name_n of_o live_n for_o they_o must_v either_o have_v set_v their_o tithe_n etc._n etc._n to_o the_o irish_a at_o what_o rate_n they_o think_v fit_a to_o offer_v or_o they_o will_v pay_v little_a or_o none_o in_o kind_n for_o the_o most_o expeditious_a mean_n which_o the_o clergy_n of_o that_o kingdom_n have_v or_o indeed_o

considerable_a however_o to_o prevent_v even_o this_o practice_n as_o well_o as_o to_o obstruct_v the_o common_a course_n of_o justice_n in_o all_o case_n where_o a_o protestant_n be_v concern_v against_o a_o papist_n the_o lord_n chancellor_n sir_n charles_n porter_n who_o be_v a_o true_a friend_n to_o the_o establish_a church_n and_o the_o english_a interest_n be_v displace_v to_o make_v
