full_o satisfy_v you_o that_o we_o have_v just_a ground_n of_o dissatisfaction_n and_o that_o we_o can_v comply_v with_o such_o violent_a and_o unwarrantable_a undertaking_n both_o against_o our_o

persuade_v they_o in_o england_n to_o remove_v that_o force_n which_o they_o have_v put_v upon_o the_o parliament_n as_o to_o your_o proposal_n i_o beseech_v you_o serious_o to_o consider_v and_o lay_v to_o heart_n these_o follow_a answer_n 1._o to_o the_o first_o you_o be_v please_v to_o intimate_v the_o joy_n of_o the_o cavalier_n that_o they_o see_v we_o stand_v to_o our_o declaration_n but_o i_o believe_v that_o this_o violent_a interruption_n of_o the_o parliament_n be_v the_o great_a courtesy_n to_o gratify_v that_o family_n and_o interest_n that_o can_v be_v imagine_v in_o the_o world_n and_o i_o can_v wish_v it_o be_v not_o design_v i_o shall_v be_v very_o sad_a to_o strengthen_v the_o hand_n of_o the_o wicked_a but_o let_v i_o assure_v you_o this_o arise_v from_o the_o slander_n and_o calumny_n which_o man_n cast_v upon_o we_o in_o england_n as_o if_o we_o that_o assert_v the_o authority_n of_o those_o that_o bring_v the_o late_a king_n to_o the_o block_n be_v for_o introduce_v that_o family_n which_o i_o take_v god_n to_o witness_v we_o in_o our_o very_a thought_n abhor_v and_o shall_v spend_v our_o blood_n in_o opposition_n to_o any_o single_a person_n whatsoe_fw-la ver._n 2._o you_o be_v please_v to_o compare_v our_o present_a difference_n to_o that_o of_o the_o israelite_n with_o the_o two_o tribe_n of_o reuben_n gad_n and_o half_o the_o tribe_n of_o manasses_n and_o i_o earnest_o pray_v that_o there_o may_v be_v the_o same_o issue_n for_o if_o they_o will_v restore_v these_o person_n to_o their_o lawful_a authority_n which_o have_v be_v establish_v by_o many_o success_n and_o for_o the_o difference_n of_o which_o they_o so_o late_o hazard_v to_o blood_n we_o shall_v quiet_o sit_v down_o and_o wait_v upon_o the_o providence_n of_o god_n in_o our_o place_n and_o station_n and_o to_o this_o end_n we_o have_v send_v commissioner_n into_o england_n man_n faithful_a and_o approve_a what_o you_o be_v please_v to_o instance_n concerning_o my_o satisfaction_n in_o the_o year_n 1653._o when_o this_o parliament_n be_v interrupt_v former_o i_o shall_v answer_v you_o to_o that_o it_o be_v never_o in_o my_o conscience_n to_o go_v out_o of_o god_n way_n under_o the_o pretence_n of_o do_v god_n work_n and_o you_o know_v the_o variety_n of_o time_n do_v much_o vary_v the_o nature_n of_o affair_n and_o what_o may_v then_o patient_o be_v submit_v unto_o we_o be_v engage_v with_o a_o foreign_a enemy_n in_o a_o bloody_a war_n can_v be_v draw_v into_o a_o precedent_n at_o this_o time_n after_o our_o repentance_n and_o assurance_n of_o loyalty_n and_o constancy_n you_o may_v be_v please_v to_o remember_v that_o the_o consequence_n of_o the_o former_a interruption_n be_v the_o introduction_n of_o a_o single_a person_n and_o a_o manifest_a breach_n of_o all_o our_o promise_n and_o engagement_n so_o that_o if_o god_n bless_v i_o with_o success_n than_o i_o do_v much_o more_o through_o mercy_n expect_v it_o now_o when_o i_o put_v all_o to_o hazard_v for_o the_o glory_n of_o god_n and_o the_o good_a of_o his_o people_n 3._o i_o do_v acknowledge_v that_o the_o army_n have_v be_v in_o the_o hand_n of_o god_n and_o instrument_n of_o good_a to_o these_o nation_n yet_o if_o they_o shall_v apostate_n from_o the_o cause_n of_o god_n and_o his_o people_n in_o expose_v they_o to_o arbitrary_a power_n and_o the_o will_n of_o man_n in_o take_v upon_o they_o to_o abolish_v law_n raise_v money_n without_o consent_n of_o the_o people_n destroy_v ministry_n and_o property_n and_o force_v parliament_n i_o can_v but_o witness_v against_o such_o proceed_n as_o unwarrantable_a not_o suit_v to_o any_o rule_n either_o from_o god_n or_o man_n 4._o i_o have_v take_v care_n by_o garrison_n in_o this_o country_n and_o assurance_n from_o the_o whole_a body_n of_o the_o nation_n that_o they_o will_v not_o own_o the_o interest_n of_o charles_n stewart_n and_o that_o they_o will_v preserve_v the_o peace_n of_o the_o commonwealth_n in_o obedience_n to_o the_o parliament_n so_o that_o if_o that_o part_n of_o the_o army_n in_o england_n will_v set_v up_o a_o distinct_a interest_n in_o the_o nation_n in_o desert_v that_o cause_n that_o have_v be_v so_o precious_a to_o we_o and_o cost_v so_o much_o blood_n and_o treasure_n for_o to_o establish_v their_o own_o interest_n and_o greatness_n i_o do_v declare_v in_o the_o presence_n of_o the_o great_a god_n i_o can_v own_v you_o nor_o join_v with_o they_o now_o have_v open_v my_o heart_n to_o you_o and_o as_o you_o know_v my_o plainness_n and_o sincerity_n that_o i_o be_o none_o of_o those_o that_o dare_v assert_v any_o thing_n against_o my_o conscience_n from_o that_o experience_n you_o have_v have_v of_o i_o i_o hearty_o beg_v your_o belief_n and_o credit_n that_o i_o shall_v keep_v in_o the_o way_n of_o duty_n and_o endeavour_v to_o do_v the_o lord_n work_n in_o my_o generation_n and_o shall_v not_o own_o any_o corrupt_a interest_n whatsoever_o and_o do_v desire_n of_o god_n his_o blessing_n according_a to_o my_o integrity_n in_o this_o undertake_n have_v this_o good_a testimony_n in_o my_o own_o spirit_n that_o i_o have_v nothing_o but_o public_a and_o righteous_a end_n upon_o my_o heart_n and_o by_o all_o these_o respect_n and_o kindness_n that_o i_o have_v receive_v from_o you_o
