SIR,
Yours I received, and to my no small admiration, find that you still continue to stuff your Letters with the old Common place Discourses of Fears and Jealousies, and of the Dangers we are in at present; but not content with this, you are pleased to give me a most Tragical Description of our future condition; How our Church is to be destroyed, Protestants set together by the Ears, whilst our Popish Enemies shall stand by, clap us on the back, spit in our mouths, and hearten us on to cut one another's Throats: Who (as you say) when they shall be cloyed with the Sport, will take the Sword out of our Hands, finish the Work we have so bravely begun, by dispatching those that remain; or at least, reducing them to submit to that heavy Yoke, which we see our Miserable Brethren of France groan under at this day.
