of_o love_n and_o duty_n to_o their_o present_a majesty_n be_v very_o great_a yet_o it_o be_v plain_a these_o attempt_n upon_o the_o name_n and_o memory_n of_o k._n charles_n i._o be_v in_o order_n

for_o stand_v up_o for_o the_o ancient_a constitution_n of_o the_o kingdom_n and_o in_o order_n to_o it_o for_o defend_v that_o prince_n who_o notwithstanding_o all_o unjust_a reflection_n do_v
