before_o it_o be_v recall_v your_o lordship_n have_v hear_v he_o be_v not_o content_v herewith_o but_o spread_v it_o over_o the_o face_n of_o the_o whole_a kingdom_n and_o arrogate_v authority_n to_o

for_o thing_n as_o he_o say_v of_o no_o consequence_n of_o no_o solidity_n at_o all_o be_v very_o hard_a my_o lord_n i_o answer_v what_o respect_n what_o pity_n or_o christian_a compassion_n do_v he_o ever_o demonstrate_v when_o he_o be_v in_o his_o kingdom_n in_o ireland_n when_o he_o cause_v those_o that_o refuse_v to_o pay_v to_o be_v commit_v when_o he_o compel_v the_o great_a council_n of_o

of_o his_o majesty_n subject_n to_o proceed_v from_o his_o sacred_a majesty_n this_o be_v a_o course_n no_o wise_a minister_n ever_o practise_v thus_o to_o question_v his_o great_a master_n and_o as_o much_o as_o in_o he_o lie_v to_o make_v the_o subject_a weary_a of_o serve_v and_o the_o king_n of_o protect_v what_o be_v this_o but_o to_o make_v his_o majesty_n think_v that_o his_o royal_a

and_o the_o high_a degree_n of_o treason_n i_o must_v profess_v i_o yet_o know_v not_o what_o treason_n be_v beside_o my_o lord_n under_o favour_n i_o shall_v put_v you_o in_o remembrance_n that_o

your_o lordship_n may_v remember_v that_o the_o warrant_n
do_v not_o particular_o express_v the_o number_n of_o man_n that_o shall_v raise_v it_o in_o that_o warlike_a manner_n i_o may_v as_o well_o say_v the_o king_n have_v give_v i_o a_o army_n in_o
