although_o the_o country_n shall_v still_o suffer_v by_o it_o yea_o and_o its_o like_o to_o suffer_v until_o the_o king_n noble_n and_o gentry_n of_o england_n enjoy_v their_o right_n again_o for_o

for_o although_o he_o lose_v all_o he_o have_v in_o these_o time_n for_o no_o cause_n but_o only_o that_o he_o be_v peaceable_a yet_o do_v i_o never_o hear_v he_o speak_v a_o word_n against_o the_o
