groan_v for_o misery_n and_o pain_n they_o will_v in_o detestation_n and_o mockery_n of_o the_o english_a cry_v out_o that_o they_o understand_v not_o their_o english_a language_n but_o hitherto_o

the_o fort_n of_o lease_n nease_n trymm_n and_o dundalk_v with_o many_o more_o castle_n and_o garrison_n and_o the_o certainty_n of_o this_o plot_n they_o have_v in_o hand_n will_v prove_v the_o

out_o of_o that_o province_n for_o that_o the_o papist_n will_v have_v no_o manner_n of_o commerce_n or_o buy_v or_o sell_v with_o they_o either_o victual_n or_o any_o thing_n else_o and_o moreover_o the_o protestant_n complain_v in_o that_o declaration_n that_o they_o find_v that_o the_o county_n counsel_n which_o be_v the_o head_n rebel_v of_o those_o county_n have_v issue_v out_o warrant_n to_o

therefore_o what_o other_o term_n can_v right_o be_v give_v to_o this_o cessation_n than_o a_o trap_n for_o protestant_n which_o indeed_o all_o the_o protestant_n of_o ireland_n be_v most_o sensible_a of_o and_o how_o great_a a_o yoke_n of_o tyranny_n they_o be_v enforce_v to_o lie_v under_o and_o in_o that_o part_n of_o the_o kingdom_n as_o in_o ulster_n where_o they_o be_v so_o powerful_a as_o

so_o much_o to_o do_v in_o ireland_n as_o they_o shall_v have_v either_o little_a time_n or_o mind_n of_o imbrue_v their_o wicked_a hand_n in_o the_o innocent_a blood_n of_o the_o inhabitant_n of_o

will_v be_v to_o almighty_a god_n that_o there_o may_v be_v assistance_n by_o they_o give_v unto_o the_o protestant_n of_o ireland_n to_o prosecute_v the_o war_n in_o that_o kingdom_n and_o to_o take_v a_o just_a revenge_n of_o the_o heathenish_a cannibal_n there_o for_o the_o many_o thousand_o of_o innocent_n they_o have_v murder_v and_o likewise_o how_o advantageous_a it_o will_v be_v for_o the_o service_n of_o this_o kingdom_n since_o i_o dare_v confident_o affirm_v that_o the_o malice_n of_o the_o irish_a rebel_n point_v at_o all_o the_o protestant_n nay_o at_o all_o the_o english_a in_o this_o kingdom_n likewise_o and_o that_o do_v appear_v by_o the_o great_a preparation_n there_o make_v both_o by_o sea_n and_o land_n for_o the_o send_n over_o a_o rebellious_a army_n into_o this_o kingdom_n upon_o hope_n and_o conjecture_n that_o the_o protestant_n here_o be_v in_o no_o condition_n of_o any_o way_n enable_v the_o protestant_n of_o that_o kingdom_n to_o withstand_v they_o for_o i_o beseech_v you_o judge_n if_o the_o protestant_n there_o shall_v for_o indigence_n and_o want_n be_v enforce_v to_o desert_n that_o kingdom_n and_o that_o the_o irish_a shall_v swarm_v here_o what_o mercy_n can_v the_o english_a here_o expect_v from_o they_o who_o have_v be_v so_o bloody_a upon_o we_o that_o have_v so_o many_o tie_n of_o friendship_n and_o gratitude_n upon_o they_o true_o i_o know_v not_o how_o people_n may_v flatter_v themselves_o but_o i_o be_o persuade_v murder_a and_o massacre_n without_o mercy_n rape_n and_o rapine_n burn_n devastation_n and_o all_o manner_n of_o spoil_n will_v be_v the_o great_a mercy_n receive_v from_o they_o and_o by_o sufficient_a testimony_n i_o be_o persuade_v that_o if_o the_o papist_n may_v once_o have_v a_o concourse_n into_o this_o kingdom_n the_o very_a person_n of_o his_o majesty_n will_v not_o be_v free_a from_o the_o danger_n of_o be_v murder_v by_o they_o if_o their_o fuccess_n here_o shall_v not_o meet_v with_o their_o hope_n or_o if_o his_o majesty_n shall_v any_o way_n decline_v at_o any_o time_n which_o i_o hope_v in_o god_n due_a time_n he_o will_v from_o a_o eager_a pursuit_n of_o the_o mischievous_a design_n they_o shall_v at_o all_o time_n seek_v to_o bring_v his_o majesty_n unto_o and_o indeed_o i_o have_v a_o strong_a argument_n to_o enforce_v i_o to_o this_o belief_n for_o not_o long_o before_o my_o departure_n from_o dublin_n certain_a news_n come_v to_o the_o city_n of_o my_o lord_n duke_n hammiltons_n fly_v out_o of_o scotland_n to_o his_o majesty_n which_o news_n do_v not_o a_o little_a deject_v some_o there_o for_o that_o they_o do_v conjecture_v that_o there_o be_v no_o party_n to_o be_v raif_v in_o scotland_n for_o the_o hinder_v the_o advance_n of_o the_o scotch_a army_n into_o this_o kingdom_n many_o whisper_n and_o construction_n be_v concern_v his_o come_n away_o at_o that_o time_n and_o in_o that_o manner_n among_o many_o other_o this_o be_v the_o construction_n my_o

yet_o in_o due_a time_n i_o shall_v both_o name_v they_o and_o prove_v by_o they_o that_o he_o express_v himself_o in_o these_o word_n my_o lord_n duke_n hamilton_n be_v report_v to_o be_v flee_v

to_o be_v as_o notorious_a a_o traitor_n as_o ever_o he_o be_v and_o that_o he_o be_v flee_v to_o the_o king_n mere_o to_o try_v whether_o or_o no_o with_o his_o great_a power_n he_o can_v persuade_v the_o king_n to_o a_o peace_n and_o by_o that_o mean_n destroy_v the_o good_a cause_n his_o majesty_n have_v in_o hand_n but_o for_o my_o part_n i_o ingenuous_o declare_v myself_o that_o if_o the_o
