a_o answer_n to_o sir_n thomas_n manwaring_n book_n entitle_v a_o admonition_n to_o the_o reader_n of_o sir_n peter_n leicester_n book_n write_a by_o the_o same_o sir_n peter_n leicester_n print_a

the_o very_a first_o word_n of_o sir_n thomas_n manwaring_n admonition_n that_o you_o may_v know_v hercul●s_n by_o his_o foot_n whereby_o he_o will_v insinuate_v the_o blast_n of_o my_o credit_n and_o reputation_n even_o before_o he_o begin_v one_o word_n of_o his_o book_n and_o it_o be_v all_o one_o as_o if_o he_o shall_v have_v say_v in_o downright_a word_n take_v heed_n of_o believe_v any_o thing_n which_o sir_n peter_n write_v for_o here_o i_o will_v show_v you_o the_o partiality_n omission_n uncertainty_n and_o mistake_v of_o the_o say_a sir_n peter_n in_o those_o two_o sheet_n of_o his_o historical_a antiquity_n in_o which_o he_o write_v of_o the_o township_n of_o over-peev_a which_o be_v so_o numerous_a that_o little_a credit_n be_v to_o be_v give_v to_o any_o thing_n he_o

to_o the_o world_n his_o own_o malignancy_n which_o will_v be_v a_o great_a dishonour_n to_o himself_o than_o these_o pitiful_a exception_n can_v be_v a_o disparagement_n to_o i_o for_o his_o

that_o i_o suppose_v the_o same_o ranulphus_fw-la to_o be_v the_o ancestor_n of_o the_o manwaring_n but_o i_o can_v say_v it_o be_v so_o certain_a as_o the_o other_o what_o reason_n now_o have_v sir_n
