other_o speech_n by_o edith_n college_n it_o be_v say_v that_o i_o have_v a_o priest_n several_a year_n in_o my_o house_n viz._n sergeant_n that_o come_v over_o from_o holland_n to_o discover_v about_o some_o ten_o year_n ago_o that_o very_o same_o man_n come_v to_o i_o but_o be_v a_o stranger_n to_o i_o and_o he_o come_v to_o i_o by_o the_o name_n of_o dr._n smith_n a_o physician_n and_o there_o be_v a_o apothecary_n in_o the_o old_a bailey_n and_o a_o linen-draper_n within_o ludgate_n that_o come_v with_o he_o they_o bring_v he_o thither_o and_o take_v a_o chamber_n and_o lay_v about_o half_n or_o three_o quarter_n of_o a_o year_n at_o time_n by_o the_o name_n of_o dr._n smith_n and_o as_o a_o physician_n this_o be_v the_o truth_n of_o that_o and_o no_o otherwise_o this_o be_v the_o entertainment_n of_o sergeant_n basset_n speech_n upon_o the_o compare_v of_o these_o two_o passage_n you_o will_v find_v in_o the_o former_a that_o he_o deny_v the_o knowledge_n of_o

be_v a_o certain_a truth_n and_o provable_a beyond_o dispute_n so_o to_o be_v that_o college_n know_v this_o dr._n of_o physic_n to_o be_v mr._n sergeant_n even_o while_o he_o lodge_v in_o his_o

edith_n college_n yet_o he_o make_v no_o particular_a mention_n of_o they_o at_o his_o last_o speech_n by_o word_n of_o mouth_n notwithstanding_o the_o weight_n and_o effect_n which_o those_o
