LETTER.

It is to condemn all those Great and Worthy Patriots of their Coun∣try, who forfeited the dearest thing in the World to them, next a good Conscience, viz. The Favour of their Prince, and a great many Ho∣nourable and Profitable Imployments with it, rather than consent to that Proposal of taking away the Test and Penal Laws, which they apprehend destructive to the Church of England and the Protestant Religion; and he who can in Conscience do all this, I think need scruple nothing.
