information_n first_o it_o express_o clear_v the_o king_n from_o give_v any_o commission_n for_o the_o irish_a rebellion_n nor_o be_v there_o any_o thing_n in_o it_o that_o can_v charge_v his_o majesty_n with_o the_o least_o thought_n or_o intention_n that_o his_o protestant_a subject_n in_o ireland_n shall_v be_v either_o plunder_v or_o murder_v nevertheless_o when_o a_o unthinking_a reader_n find_v that_o the_o castle_n of_o dublin_n be_v to_o be_v surprise_v he_o run_v away_o with_o the_o notion_n that_o the_o irish_a conspiracy_n be_v pursuant_n to_o that_o order_n and_o the_o king_n be_v in_o the_o bottom_n of_o that_o barbarous_a rebellion_n and_o this_o perhaps_o be_v one_o design_n of_o this_o information_n but_o the_o chief_a end_n of_o it_o be_v to_o abuse_v the_o world_n with_o a_o belief_n that_o the_o king_n be_v not_o necessitate_v to_o a_o war_n with_o the_o parliament_n by_o any_o thing_n then_o new_o happen_v in_o 1642._o but_o that_o he_o have_v project_v it_o long_o before_o and_o have_v make_v this_o preparation_n to_o put_v it_o in_o execution_n second_o this_o information_n can_v be_v true_a but_o either_o antrim_n deceive_v the_o world_n or_o burk_n impose_v upon_o he_o for_o beside_o that_o ormond_n and_o antrim_n be_v unfit_a to_o be_v join_v in_o a_o commission_n as_o well_o because_o there_o be_v never_o any_o good_a understanding_n between_o they_o as_o also_o because_o they_o be_v of_o different_a religion_n and_o interest_n how_o much_o more_o obvious_a and_o easy_a less_o scandalous_a and_o more_o effectual_a will_v it_o have_v be_v for_o the_o king_n to_o have_v make_v ormond_n lord-deputy_n than_o to_o order_v he_o to_o surprise_v the_o castle_n and_o the_o lord_n justice_n moreover_o these_o 12000_o additional_a man_n can_v not_o have_v be_v raise_v without_o noise_n and_o time_n nor_o keep_v without_o money_n nor_o arm_v at_o all_o for_o there_o be_v not_o 12000_o arm_n in_o the_o store_n 23_o octob._n and_o yet_o 8000_o of_o they_o be_v the_o arm_n of_o the_o disband_v man_n which_o they_o be_v to_o keep_v on_o foot_n but_o it_o be_v yet_o more_o strange_a that_o before_o any_o breach_n with_o the_o parliament_n and_o whilst_o matter_n tend_v to_o a_o accommodation_n more_o hopeful_o than_o in_o some_o month_n before_o the_o king_n shall_v by_o such_o a_o rash_a and_o imprudent_a action_n administer_v such_o cause_n of_o jealousy_n to_o the_o parliament_n at_o so_o unseasonable_a a_o time_n whilst_o he_o be_v absent_a in_o scotland_n as_o will_v certain_o put_v the_o kingdom_n

of_o doubt_n the_o king_n long_o before_o he_o go_v to_o york_n which_o be_v in_o the_o middle_n of_o august_n know_v the_o irish_a army_n will_v be_v disband_v and_o therefore_o consent_v to_o
