to_o let_v your_o moderation_n be_v know_v unto_o all_o man_n for_o my_o lord_n the_o king_n most_o excellent_a majesty_n be_v near_o at_o hand_n i_o warrant_v you_o such_o a_o person_n will_v have_v be_v esteem_v most_o ridiculous_a impertinent_a fanatical_a and_o contemptible_a but_o if_o they_o have_v take_v it_o into_o their_o serious_a thought_n and_o consideration_n and_o thereupon_o have_v embrace_v moderation_n they_o will_v not_o have_v suffer_v so_o much_o reproach_n &_o contempt_n in_o their_o honour_n and_o reputation_n as_o some_o of_o they_o i_o do_v pity_n they_o with_o all_o my_o heart_n have_v do_v since_o his_o majesty_n restauration_n and_o for_o any_o person_n whatsoever_o now_o adays_o to_o make_v any_o reflection_n upon_o any_o particular_a person_n by_o reason_n of_o his_o former_a in_o advertency_n and_o miscarriage_n herein_o it_o be_v a_o unworthy_a and_o inbecoming_a action_n and_o sure_o i_o be_o no_o sober_a mind_n will_v do_v it_o inasmuch_o as_o there_o be_v a_o act_n of_o indemnity_n pass_v by_o king_n lord_n and_o commons_o to_o have_v all_o these_o thing_n bury_v in_o the_o ember_n of_o oblivion_n and_o forgetfulness_n and_o that_o they_o will_v have_v no_o distinction_n of_o person_n now_o use_v save_v only_o what_o consist_v with_o the_o longitude_n and_o latitude_n of_o a_o good_a christian_a a_o good_a subject_n and_o a_o good_a

and_o if_o in_o case_n they_o be_v in_o the_o same_o capacity_n they_o will_v never_o run_v again_o the_o same_o extreme_n and_o i_o can_v wish_v with_o all_o my_o heart_n that_o these_o book_n that_o

beside_o the_o matter_n in_o hand_n and_o not_o direct_o to_o the_o point_n although_o i_o hope_v they_o may_v be_v of_o some_o use_n and_o benefit_n in_o some_o case_n for_o the_o strength_n of_o the_o objection_n lie_v herein_o viz._n that_o you_o have_v lay_v out_o so_o much_o money_n already_o upon_o the_o rebuild_n of_o your_o royal_a exchange_n and_o that_o in_o reason_n you_o ought_v to_o have_v so_o much_o interest_n for_o the_o same_o by_o way_n of_o improvement_n or_o else_o you_o may_v as_o well_o have_v throw_v away_o your_o money_n into_o the_o street_n or_o have_v send_v
