he_o be_v a_o papist_n ever_o profess_v the_o truth_n my_o answer_n be_v that_o they_o do_v and_o do_v err_v in_o very_a many_o thing_n but_o yet_o they_o do_v and_o do_v profess_v some_o truth_n and_o i_o doubt_v not_o but_o that_o many_o which_o live_v and_o die_v in_o the_o time_n of_o popish_a darkness_n die_v god_n servant_n if_o you_o think_v that_o a_o man_n be_v wide_o in_o many_o

not_o among_o the_o heathen_a neither_o can_v he_o be_v that_o adversary_n who_o beginning_n shall_v be_v in_o paganism_n but_o although_o popery_n take_v root_n in_o the_o soil_n where_o the_o true_a
