tell_v we_o and_o that_o be_v the_o true_a reason_n and_o not_o popery_n that_o she_o be_v tender_a in_o the_o point_n i_o conclude_v then_o that_o whilst_o those_o of_o that_o religion_n only_o

lest_o god_n suffer_v they_o to_o prevail_v to_o curb_v our_o partiality_n there_o be_v law_n enough_o to_o punish_v offender_n against_o the_o state_n if_o these_o be_v repeal_v and_o not_o condemn_v

thus_o gentleman_n you_o have_v my_o thought_n upon_o your_o news_n pray_v communicate_v they_o to_o our_o acquaintance_n and_o believe_v that_o i_o be_o you_o etc._n etc._n postscript_n for_o the_o

the_o exclusion_n can_v be_v for_o they_o that_o be_v design_v for_o a_o preamble_n to_o it_o since_o in_o so_o do_v she_o be_v for_o that_o which_o be_v contrive_v to_o introduce_v the_o exclusion_n she_o be_v so_o zealous_o against_o i_o confess_v i_o never_o understand_v she_o very_o well_o and_o she_o grow_v more_o and_o more_o unintelligible_a but_o this_o i_o know_v that_o she_o must_v

for_o other_o prince_n have_v be_v so_o unhappy_a as_o to_o suffer_v test_n and_o mark_n of_o distinction_n that_o have_v break_v and_o disorder_v their_o kingdom_n by_o deprive_v those_o of_o their_o

have_v a_o king_n now_o that_o will_v remove_v these_o mark_n of_o distinction_n and_o secure_v all_o man_n upon_o their_o native_a right_n and_o bottom_n that_o all_o party_n may_v sit_v safe_o

she_o have_v the_o offer_n to_o keep_v they_o upon_o that_o principle_n that_o must_v heal_v and_o save_v the_o kingdom_n liberty_n of_o conscience_n which_o show_v the_o king_n be_v willing_a to_o
