to_o come_v upon_o clear_a ground_n and_o to_o consider_v the_o providence_n of_o god_n how_o they_o have_v lead_v we_o hither_o unto_o after_o it_o please_v god_n to_o put_v a_o end_n to_o the_o

i_o think_v settlement_n that_o be_v that_o man_n may_v come_v to_o some_o consistency_n and_o to_o that_o end_n i_o do_v endeavour_v to_o add_v my_o mite_n which_o be_v no_o more_o than_o the_o

nothing_o of_o discovery_n on_o my_o part_n but_o that_o which_o every_o body_n know_v to_o be_v true_a that_o the_o parliament_n have_v do_v these_o memorable_a thing_n that_o they_o have_v do_v thing_n of_o honour_n and_o thing_n of_o necessity_n thing_n that_o if_o at_o this_o day_n you_o have_v any_o judgement_n that_o there_o lie_v a_o possibility_n upon_o you_o to_o do_v any_o good_a to_o bring_v this_o nation_n to_o any_o foot_n of_o settlement_n i_o may_v say_v you_o be_v all_o along_o behold_v to_o they_o in_o a_o good_a measure_n but_o yet_o true_o as_o man_n that_o contend_v for_o public_a interest_n be_v not_o like_a to_o have_v the_o applause_n of_o all_o man_n nor_o justification_n from_o all_o hand_n so_o it_o be_v with_o they_o and_o true_o when_o they_o have_v make_v preparation_n that_o may_v lead_v to_o the_o issue_v in_o some_o good_a for_o the_o settlement_n of_o these_o nation_n in_o point_n of_o liberty_n and_o freedom_n from_o tyranny_n and_o

introduce_v arbitrariness_n upon_o a_o civil_a account_n why_o they_o have_v more_o enemy_n than_o friend_n they_o have_v so_o all_o along_o and_o this_o make_v they_o careful_a out_o of_o principal_n of_o nature_n that_o do_v sometime_o suggest_v best_a and_o upon_o the_o most_o undeniable_a ground_n they_o do_v think_v that_o it_o be_v not_o fit_a for_o they_o present_o to_o go_v and_o throw_v themselves_o and_o all_o this_o cause_n into_o hand_n that_o perhaps_o have_v no_o heart_n nor_o principle_n with_o they_o to_o accomplish_v the_o end_n that_o they_o aim_v at_o i_o say_v perhaps_o through_o infirmity_n they_o do_v desire_v to_o have_v continue_v themselves_o and_o to_o have_v perpetuate_v themselves_o upon_o that_o act_n which_o be_v perhaps_o just_a enough_o obtain_v and_o

be_v certain_o the_o true_a way_n of_o it_o in_o the_o subserviency_n to_o the_o bring_n in_o that_o which_o may_v be_v a_o good_a and_o honest_a settlement_n to_o the_o nation_n i_o must_v say_v to_o you_o that_o i_o find_v they_o very_o willing_a to_o perpetuate_v themselves_o and_o true_o this_o be_v not_o a_o thing_n of_o reflection_n upon_o all_o for_o perhaps_o some_o be_v not_o so_o i_o can_v say_v so_o of_o some_o of_o they_o the_o sober_a man_n that_o i_o have_v converse_v with_o they_o will_v not_o have_v but_o the_o major_a part_n i_o think_v do_v over_o rule_n in_o that_o they_o will_v have_v continue_v this_o be_v true_a that_o i_o say_v to_o you_o i_o be_v entreat_v to_o it_o and_o advise_v to_o it_o and_o be_v by_o this_o medium_n to_o have_v accomplish_v it_o that_o be_v to_o have_v send_v into_o the_o country_n to_o have_v reinforce_v their_o number_n and_o by_o new_a election_n to_o have_v fill_v they_o up_o and_o this_o excuse_v it_o have_v it_o will_v not_o be_v
