they_o be_v at_o length_n overrule_v by_o a_o majority_n which_o they_o can_v not_o help_v and_o have_v use_v all_o their_o endeavour_n to_o hinder_v and_o it_o be_v the_o high_a injustice_n in_o the_o world_n to_o ascribe_v that_o to_o they_o which_o they_o be_v so_o far_o from_o concur_v in_o that_o they_o oppose_v to_o the_o last_o and_o the_o utmost_a ingratitude_n for_o the_o people_n to_o repay_v they_o with_o hatred_n only_o for_o endeavour_v faithful_o to_o serve_v they_o though_o they_o be_v not_o able_a to_o effect_v it_o but_o this_o arise_v from_o two_o cause_n the_o one_o be_v the_o station_n and_o circumstance_n of_o the_o generality_n of_o the_o people_n they_o have_v no_o opportunity_n to_o know_v the_o particular_a proceed_n in_o parliament_n nor_o mean_n to_o distinguish_v between_o their_o faithful_a representative_n and_o other_o for_o though_o the_o vote_n be_v print_v the_o yea_o and_o noes_n the_o name_n of_o the_o person_n concur_v and_o dissent_v be_v not_o and_o the_o nation_n have_v no_o way_n of_o know_v that_o but_o by_o particular_a information_n and_o i_o confess_v i_o have_v often_o wonder_v that_o those_o gentleman_n who_o have_v so_o signal_o distinguish_v themselves_o in_o parliament_n shall_v hitherto_o suffer_v themselves_o to_o lie_v under_o the_o common_a obloquy_n and_o hatred_n and_o not_o endeavour_v to_o remove_v it_o by_o inform_v the_o respective_a county_n city_n and_o borough_n of_o their_o honest_a and_o faithful_a care_n to_o preserve_v they_o from_o those_o terrible_a inconvenience_n which_o they_o foresee_v these_o proceed_n will_v inevitable_o bring_v upon_o they_o another_o cause_n of_o this_o sinister_a and_o undistinguish_a construction_n be_v the_o artifice_n of_o the_o lead_a man_n and_o the_o great_a stickler_n who_o have_v themselves_o be_v the_o sole_a author_n of_o these_o unhappy_a circumstance_n and_o at_o the_o same_o time_n be_v sensible_a how_o very_o ungrateful_a and_o prejudical_a they_o be_v to_o the_o people_n be_v very_o industrious_a to_o keep_v the_o people_n hoodwinked_a hope_v thereby_o to_o pass_v undiscerned_a and_o undistinguished_a in_o the_o crowd_n and_o that_o they_o may_v escape_v well_o enough_o so_o long_o as_o they_o lie_v in_o common_a and_o have_v no_o particular_a mark_n set_v upon_o they_o nay_o in_o good_a truth_n some_o of_o these_o be_v not_o content_v to_o do_v all_o the_o mischief_n themselves_o but_o think_v they_o have_v not_o play_v the_o whole_a game_n out_o till_o they_o have_v lay_v the_o blame_v on_o other_o man_n back_n and_o i_o can_v forbear_v remark_v to_o you_o that_o at_o this_o very_a time_n in_o several_a city_n and_o county_n perhaps_o in_o all_o these_o very_a man_n who_o be_v the_o most_o active_a &_o forward_a and_o make_v it_o their_o business_n to_o bring_v this_o dreadful_a desolation_n on_o the_o kingdom_n be_v wash_v their_o hand_n and_o wipe_v their_o mouth_n and_o crafty_o insinuate_v into_o the_o credulous_a multitude_n that_o the_o present_a calamity_n be_v pure_o owe_v to_o the_o other_o member_n and_o that_o they_o honest_a man_n be_v harmless_a and_o clear_a of_o the_o whole_a matter_n and_o so_o think_v to_o escape_v themselves_o by_o divert_v the_o stream_n of_o the_o people_n rage_n on_o innocent_a man_n and_o thereby_o hope_v to_o gain_v too_o point_n both_o to_o cover_v their_o own_o guilt_n and_o at_o the_o same_o time_n to_o satiate_v their_o revenge_n by_o expose_v to_o popular_a fury_n those_o who_o will_v not_o be_v as_o bad_a as_o themselves_o even_o as_o joseph_n mistress_n attempt_v his_o chastity_n and_o then_o transfer_v it_o to_o he_o to_o hide_v she_o own_o crime_n and_o to_o be_v revenge_v on_o he_o for_o his_o refusal_n this_o must_v be_v consess_v to_o be_v a_o high_a slight_a in_o politic_n but_o it_o be_v great_a pity_n but_o it_o be_v turn_v upon_o they_o by_o set_v thing_n in_o a_o true_a light_n that_o be_v by_o give_v a_o full_a state_n of_o this_o matter_n that_o the_o people_n may_v know_v their_o friend_n from_o their_o foe_n and_o plain_o see_v who_o they_o be_v to_o thank_v for_o this_o consume_a act_n which_o have_v devour_v our_o trade_n and_o in_o a_o short_a time_n will_v swallow_v up_o all_o the_o money_n in_o the_o nation_n and_o this_o lead_v i_o to_o the_o three_o and_o last_o part_n of_o your_o letter_n and_o that_o be_v you_o desire_v from_o i_o a_o account_n of_o the_o management_n of_o this_o whole_a affair_n in_o parliament_n and_o withal_o you_o desire_v i_o to_o be_v very_o particular_a and_o express_a because_o you_o say_v you_o have_v be_v apt_a hitherto_o to_o err_v with_o the_o multitude_n and_o you_o think_v it_o become_v every_o honest_a man_n to_o rectify_v his_o mistake_v and_o to_o have_v a_o right_a opinion_n both_o of_o person_n and_o thing_n and_o in_o order_n to_o your_o entire_a satisfaction_n in_o this_o point_n i_o shall_v first_o give_v you_o the_o plain_a matter_n of_o fact_n and_o lay_v before_o you_o a_o short_a abstract_n of_o the_o progress_n of_o this_o matter_n in_o the_o house_n of_o commons_o and_o second_o i_o shall_v give_v you_o a_o listen_v as_o

of_o the_o guineas_n etc._n etc._n whereby_o you_o will_v be_v full_o enable_v to_o judge_v upright_o of_o this_o matter_n to_o translate_v the_o opinion_n of_o person_n and_o thing_n to_o their_o true_a object_n and_o according_a to_o the_o english_a proverb_n to_o lay_v the_o saddle_n on_o the_o right_a horse_n as_o to_o the_o first_o of_o these_o when_o i_o have_v repnesent_v to_o you_o the_o several_a step_n and_o movement_n of_o this_o matter_n in_o parliament_n and_o lay_v they_o together_o before_o you_o you_o will_v have_v a_o direct_a view_n of_o the_o whole_a you_o will_v at_o once_o see_v the_o original_a the_o rise_v progress_n and_o perfection_n of_o it_o you_o will_v easy_o perceive_v the_o struggle_n of_o the_o member_n and_o how_o at_o length_n the_o court_n party_n carry_v it_o you_o will_v see_v what_o overture_n have_v be_v make_v to_o scour_v and_o uphold_v the_o people_n with_o respect_n to_o it_o and_o how_o those_o have_v be_v reject_v and_o in_o short_a you_o will_v have_v before_o you_o the_o method_n or_o in_o parliamentary_a langnage_n the_o way_n and_o mean_n whereby_o the_o country_n have_v be_v bring_v into_o these_o desolate_a circumstance_n
