majesty_n ought_v to_o be_v well_o assure_v of_o the_o success_n before_o he_o convenes_n they_o together_o i_o be_o not_o of_o opinion_n with_o many_o other_o catholic_n who_o say_v that_o by_o

majesty_n desire_n it_o may_v be_v long_o enough_o ere_o he_o compass_v his_o end_n by_o way_n of_o a_o parliament_n and_o perhaps_o never_o and_o then_o there_o rest_v no_o expedient_a or_o other_o

by_o your_o prayer_n which_o i_o beg_v of_o you_o and_o from_o all_o those_o of_o our_o society_n his_o majesty_n be_v so_o desirous_a that_o thing_n may_v be_v do_v in_o order_n and_o upon_o a_o sure_a fund_z so_o as_o to_o be_v the_o more_o last_a that_o he_o make_v great_a application_n to_o the_o shire_n and_o corporation_n to_o get_v such_o person_n choose_v for_o the_o parliament_n as_o may_v be_v favourable_a to_o his_o end_n of_o which_o he_o may_v be_v sure_a before_o they_o come_v to_o debate_v and_o the_o king_n will_v make_v they_o promise_v so_o firm_o and_o exact_v such_o

perfect_a obedience_n as_o these_o we_o shall_v certain_o have_v a_o parliament_n call_v which_o the_o catholic_n and_o nonconformist_n expect_v with_o great_a impatience_n but_o since_o this_o can_v be_v say_v of_o many_o of_o they_o the_o king_n be_v secret_a council_n think_v good_a to_o wait_v for_o the_o queen_n delivery_n that_o they_o may_v see_v a_o successor_n who_o may_v have_v need_n of_o the_o whole_a protection_n of_o the_o most_o christian_n king_n to_o support_v he_o and_o maintain_v his_o right_n and_o by_o the_o grace_n of_o god_n we_o hope_v that_o that_o prince_n tread_v in_o his_o father_n step_n may_v prove_v a_o worthy_a son_n of_o our_o society_n like_o his_o father_n who_o think_v it_o no_o dishonour_n to_o be_v so_o call_v as_o to_o other_o thing_n most_o
