less_o confident_o or_o resolve_v to_o speak_v more_o true_o though_o your_o passion_n may_v prompt_v you_o to_o contradict_v i_o yet_o let_v your_o reason_n curb_v you_o from_o thus_o gross_o

of_o settlement_n artic._n 1._o all_o those_o before_o nay_o those_o who_o have_v contribute_v money_n or_o victual_n which_o they_o can_v make_v appear_v to_o have_v be_v take_v away_o from_o they_o

and_o that_o they_o can_v walk_v and_o may_v be_v transplant_v and_o possess_v estate_n yet_o i_o believe_v because_o they_o be_v spirit_n they_o need_v not_o such_o bodily_a provision_n as_o we_o

who_o fall_v vehement_o upon_o i_o that_o i_o shall_v abuse_v authority_n with_o a_o act_n they_o never_o intend_v enforce_v this_o everywhere_o into_o his_o book_n and_o impose_v it_o upon_o the_o

of_o the_o parliament_n and_o for_o ireland_n to_o represent_v my_o sense_n to_o they_o of_o such_o a_o order_n as_o colonel_n laurence_n will_v not_o abuse_v they_o with_o once_o intend_v to_o act_v

by_o a_o great_a many_o there_o be_v one_o objection_n against_o i_o from_o pag._n 9_o and_o 10._o of_o his_o book_n that_o suppose_v the_o order_n to_o be_v general_a however_o there_o be_v no_o such_o thing_n in_o preparation_n or_o practice_n in_o ireland_n but_o rather_o that_o they_o have_v admit_v conscientious_a and_o prudent_a debate_n concerning_o it_o to_o which_o i_o answer_v 1._o then_o it_o seem_v they_o condemn_v general_a transplant_n and_o i_o desire_v and_o endeavour_v only_o against_o that_o i_o hope_v then_o authority_n there_o will_v not_o own_o col._n laurence_n

tremble_o now_o repeat_v it_o after_o he_o 4._o if_o this_o be_v the_o resolution_n i_o know_v not_o that_o i_o deserve_v such_o rude_a thanks_o for_o endeavour_v to_o obtain_v a_o order_n for_o it_o but_o however_o i_o shall_v be_v glad_a of_o the_o event_n be_v possess_v of_o my_o poor_a design_n in_o it_o and_o leave_v it_o to_o some_o more_o turbulent_a humour_n to_o dispute_v whether_o it_o be_v by_o order_n or_o not_o 5._o it_o be_v his_o resolution_n and_o it_o be_v not_o his_o resolution_n it_o be_v his_o resolution_n for_o the_o present_a but_o it_o may_v be_v not_o for_o the_o

whatever_o may_v be_v do_v at_o present_a from_o these_o two_o proposition_n put_v together_o he_o tell_v you_o pag._n 17._o lin._n 19_o the_o irish_a to_o be_v transplant_v be_v not_o the_o 20_o

let_v we_o proceed_v to_o what_o he_o call_v my_o second_o mistake_n which_o be_v as_o he_o say_v my_o argument_n against_o a_o promiscuous_a transplantation_n without_o respect_n to_o merit_n or_o behaviour_n and_o that_o say_v he_o be_v not_o so_o in_o answer_n to_o which_o consider_v first_o i_o think_v it_o have_v be_v a_o mistake_n to_o have_v write_v for_o a_o transplantation_n without_o respect_n to_o merit_n etc._n etc._n but_o i_o conceive_v none_o to_o oppose_v it_o second_o if_o it_o be_v a_o mistake_n in_o i_o to_o write_v for_o it_o it_o will_v be_v a_o great_a in_o he_o to_o

the_o order_n run_v for_o a_o general_a transplantation_n then_o for_o a_o promiscuous_a one_o doubtless_o for_o non-promiscuous_a make_v a_o difference_n and_o general_n suppose_v none_o but_o the_o first_o be_v prove_v before_o and_o therefore_o the_o second_o need_v no_o proof_n now_o four_o as_o the_o resolution_n be_v pious_a in_o the_o authority_n there_o to_o make_v a_o distinction_n so_o i_o wish_v the_o obedience_n may_v be_v cheerful_a in_o the_o executioner_n to_o perform_v it_o the_o merit_n be_v so_o small_a on_o the_o irish_a part_n that_o their_o reward_n will_v be_v more_o

which_o none_o can_v trace_v to_o the_o occasion_n or_o like_o the_o feud_n between_o martin_n luther_n scholar_n because_o one_o be_v the_o disciple_n of_o martin_n and_o the_o other_o of_o luther_n
