only_a darling_n in_o his_o majesty_n eye_n whereby_o they_o may_v have_v serve_v their_o turn_n and_o their_o end_n of_o you_o in_o that_o therefore_o you_o must_v have_v as_o fair_a and_o good_a

with_o all_o this_o for_o after_o they_o have_v murder_v almost_o all_o the_o protestant_n there_o and_o after_o they_o have_v lay_v that_o kingdom_n waste_n they_o must_v have_v a_o opportunity_n to_o be_v let_v into_o this_o kingdom_n and_o no_o council_n call_v about_o it_o to_o hinder_v they_o but_o rather_o the_o council_n to_o bring_v they_o over_o and_o the_o princiall_a actor_n in_o that_o rebellion_n must_v be_v near_o his_o majesty_n heart_n for_o the_o come_n of_o the_o scot_n i_o believe_v you_o all_o know_v very_o well_o that_o the_o parliament_n do_v think_v fit_a find_v how_o near_o the_o interest_n of_o these_o two_o nation_n be_v conjoin_v in_o one_o find_v the_o constant_a love_n and_o amity_n of_o that_o kingdom_n to_o this_o and_o how_o in_o its_o great_a

which_o treaty_n be_v now_o solemn_o ratify_v by_o both_o kingdom_n yet_o this_o must_v be_v call_v a_o invasion_n when_o they_o be_v last_o in_o the_o kingdom_n if_o they_o will_v have_v join_v with_o that_o army_n to_o have_v come_v up_o against_o the_o parliament_n they_o may_v have_v have_v very_o large_a condition_n but_o that_o be_v now_o forget_v the_o offer_n that_o be_v then_o make_v
