SECT. VII.
1. WE have been in some places punished for faults that we never committed, and prosecuted for our presence at Conventicles where we never were. This we think is hard measure, but 'tis no other than what we have had experience of.
2. Those men upon whose Evidence and Oaths, some of us have been convicted, are persons viler than the Earth, their Fa∣thers we would have scorned to have set among the Dogs of our Flocks. They are the dregs of the People, and the abhorence of all that know or have any conversation with them. Their Debaucheries have beggered and impoverished them to that degree, that they take up this trade. Their Words and their Oaths will not be taken, among their Neighbours, for a Groat.
