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 call_v they_o the_o king_n hazard_v nothing_o for_o if_o they_o will_v not_o answer_v his_o end_n he_o need_v only_o prorogue_v they_o as_o be_v usual_o do_v but_o it_o be_v my_o opinion_n and_o the_o sense_n of_o many_o other_o that_o his_o majesty_n hazard_v much_o for_o if_o it_o shall_v unfortunate_o happen_v that_o they_o shall_v in_o their_o assembly_n refuse_v to_o comply_v with_o his_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 mean_n but_o by_o violence_n to_o execute_v the_o order_n of_o his_o secret_a council_n which_o must_v be_v suppose_v by_o his_o army_n who_o upon_o a_o pretence_n of_o encamp_v may_v be_v call_v together_o with_o the_o less_o jealousy_n or_o suspicion_n so_o you_o may_v see_v most_o reverend_a father_n that_o we_o do_v not_o want_v work_n in_o these_o quarter_n and_o i_o must_v be_v support_v 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 instrument_n from_o they_o in_o writing_n that_o they_o shall_v not_o be_v able_a to_o go_v back_o unless_o they_o will_v thereby_o draw_v upon_o themselves_o his_o majesty_n utmost_a displeasure_n and_o make_v they_o feel_v the_o weight_n of_o his_o resentment_n and_o i_o have_v here_o enclose_v some_o effect_n of_o his_o majesty_n endeavour_n in_o this_o matter_n which_o be_v a_o address_n which_o the_o mayor_n sheriff_n and_o burgess_n of_o newcastle_n in_o the_o county_n of_o stafford_n have_v present_v to_o the_o king_n see_v the_o gazette_n where_o this_o corporation_n as_o well_o as_o glocaster_n and_o teuxbury_n and_o other_o in_o their_o address_n promise_v to_o choose_v such_o member_n as_o shall_v comply_v with_o his_o majesty_n desire_n if_o all_o town_n be_v in_o as_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

say_v and_o if_o there_o do_v not_o come_v some_o present_a assistance_n from_o above_o i_o foresee_v this_o affair_n will_v occasion_v great_a prejudices_fw-la in_o the_o north_n nor_o have_v we_o
