for_o your_o stand_v up_o for_o the_o right_n and_o privilege_n of_o the_o people_n i_o honour_n and_o esteem_v you_o but_o for_o your_o superbious_a and_o unwarrantable_a carriage_n to_o your_o

and_o party_n i_o pray_v sir_n let_v i_o demand_v of_o you_o one_o thing_n what_o renow_v a_o king_n more_o although_o to_o speak_v true_o he_o be_v appoint_v by_o god_n only_o to_o look_v after_o

entitle_v a_o anatomy_n of_o the_o lord_n tyranny_n you_o say_v the_o lord_n have_v be_v the_o principal_a instrument_n to_o engage_v this_o kingdom_n in_o a_o bloody_a war_n that_o they_o set_v we_o a_o fight_a to_o unhorse_v and_o dismount_v our_o old_a rider_n and_o tyrant_n that_o so_o they_o may_v get_v up_o and_o ride_v themselves_o where_o in_o say_v so_o o_o how_o much_o do_v you_o mistake_v yourself_o it_o be_v evident_a to_o the_o whole_a kingdom_n that_o the_o lord_n have_v be_v the_o composer_n and_o not_o the_o fomenter_n of_o the_o common_a trouble_n have_v they_o side_v with_o the_o malignant_a and_o royal_a partee_n i_o fear_v it_o have_v not_o be_v with_o we_o as_o now_o it_o be_v but_o it_o fare_v with_o you_o as_o with_o the_o poet_n homer_n who_o never_o write_v well_o of_o any_o who_o action_n be_v never_o so_o merit_v that_o disturb_a his_o country_n so_o you_o delight_v to_o say_v the_o worst_a you_o can_v and_o to_o malign_v any_o be_v they_o never_o so_o innocent_a that_o have_v take_v part_n any_o way_n against_o you_o which_o be_v in_o you_o a_o very_a great_a oversight_n again_o i_o esteem_v you_o very_o incorrigible_a that_o you_o shall_v desire_v as_o in_o the_o anatomy_n of_o the_o lord_n tyranny_n pag._n 19_o that_o you_o hope_v the_o honourable_a house_n when_o they_o have_v judge_v your_o cause_n will_v not_o only_o cause_v the_o lord_n to_o restore_v the_o charge_n you_o have_v be_v at_o during_o the_o time_n of_o your_o imprisonment_n but_o will_v also_o grant_v you_o ample_a repairation_n for_o your_o hard_a and_o unjust_a

that_o when_o a_o man_n shall_v wilful_o set_v fire_n on_o his_o house_n and_o good_n his_o neighbour_n shall_v be_v constrain_v to_o make_v he_o reparation_n i_o trow_v not_o so_o be_v it_o in_o your_o case_n your_o own_o obstinacy_n perhaps_o have_v impoverish_v your_o state_n and_o therefore_o the_o lord_n must_v make_v up_o the_o breach_n and_o restore_v unto_o you_o the_o money_n your_o folly_n have_v cause_v you_o to_o expend_v for_o which_o there_o be_v no_o reason_n or_o the_o least_o colour_n but_o you_o seem_v to_o urge_v some_o reason_n in_o page_n the_o 20._o why_o it_o shall_v be_v so_o where_o you_o say_v that_o the_o king_n constant_a custom_n be_v to_o provide_v lodging_n dyer_n and_o to_o pay_v the_o fee_n of_o all_o those_o he_o commit_v to_o the_o tower_n but_o the_o lord_n for_o no_o cause_n at_o all_o have_v commit_v you_o thither_o put_v you_o to_o pay_v all_o the_o vast_a extravagance_n and_o fe_n alas_o sir_n the_o reason_n thereof_o may_v be_v this_o the_o lord_n know_v what_o a_o numerous_a multitude_n of_o sectary_n be_v your_o idolater_n and_o they_o in_o not_o provide_v for_o your_o entertainment_n in_o the_o tower_n will_v put_v they_o to_o the_o test_n and_o thereby_o will_v give_v you_o occasion_n to_o find_v your_o friend_n indeed_o from_o your_o friend_n in_o show_n and_o all_o this_o be_v for_o your_o information_n in_o that_o

report_v for_o either_o good_a cheer_n or_o wine_n a_o certain_a symptom_n of_o their_o affection_n towards_o you_o and_o now_o it_o be_v fair_o hope_v by_o you_o as_o perhaps_o it_o may_v certain_o happen_v that_o you_o shall_v be_v deliver_v out_o of_o bond_n o_o that_o god_n will_v put_v it_o into_o your_o heart_n to_o do_v as_o you_o once_o protest_v to_o the_o lieutenant_n of_o the_o tower_n upon_o condition_n he_o will_v admit_v you_o the_o society_n of_o your_o wife_n and_o friend_n to_o wit_n that_o you_o will_v not_o write_v a_o line_n in_o the_o way_n of_o controversy_n which_o will_v be_v for_o your_o exceed_a great_a avail_n but_o i_o fear_v it_o will_v be_v with_o you_o as_o with_o those_o superstitious_a seaman_n who_o be_v in_o a_o hideous_a and_o threaten_a storm_n in_o danger_n to_o loose_v their_o life_n with_o their_o fraught_n make_v solemn_a protestation_n to_o some_o saint_n that_o if_o they_o will_v appease_v the_o fury_n of_o the_o tempest_n and_o

man_n still_o and_o steer_v a_o course_n as_o irregular_a as_o ever_o before_o but_o i_o hope_v the_o lord_n will_v guide_v your_o heart_n better_o and_o quiet_a your_o troublesome_a spirit_n and_o unite_v your_o heart_n to_o his_o church_n and_o people_n that_o now_o at_o length_n we_o may_v have_v peace_n and_o union_n among_o ourselves_o and_o not_o suffer_v we_o while_o we_o tithe_n mint_n
