time_n to_o come_v what_o can_v the_o void_n of_o this_o cessation_n contribute_v to_o the_o current_n of_o their_o design_n but_o only_o by_o way_n of_o scandalous_a reflection_n upon_o his_o majesty_n breach_n of_o faith_n and_o promise_n when_o that_o cessation_n will_v void_a itself_o will_v exhale_v and_o expire_v of_o itself_o before_o ever_o those_o design_n of_o they_o can_v be_v ripe_a for_o any_o prosecution_n i_o confess_v when_o i_o look_v well_o upon_o it_o i_o think_v the_o true_a state_n of_o this_o question_n concerning_o the_o irish_a cessation_n be_v the_o same_o with_o the_o state_n of_o that_o question_n in_o plutarch_n concerning_o demonides_n his_o shoe_n demonides_n be_v a_o lame_a impotent_a man_n and_o therefore_o have_v his_o shoe_n make_v very_o wide_a and_o easy_a for_o his_o foot_n those_o shoe_n when_o a_o cunning_a youth_n have_v steal_v one_o day_n from_o he_o and_o some_o of_o his_o neighbour_n come_v in_o and_o willing_a to_o extenuate_v and_o alleviate_v his_o loss_n that_o he_o may_v be_v the_o less_o affect_v with_o it_o have_v tell_v he_o that_o they_o be_v but_o a_o scurvy_a pair_n of_o clouterly_a shoe_n and_o very_o naughty_o make_v demonides_n reply_v that_o the_o shoe_n indeed_o be_v no_o very_a good_a shoe_n but_o they_o be_v very_o good_a shoe_n for_o demonides_n because_o a_o better_a pair_n will_v not_o have_v fit_v his_o sore_a foot_n half_o so_o well_o in_o like_a manner_n it_o may_v be_v say_v of_o this_o cessation_n that_o indeed_o it_o be_v no_o very_a good_a cessation_n because_o peradventure_o other_o cessation_n heretofore_o have_v be_v make_v according_a to_o the_o more_o punctual_a rule_n of_o honour_n and_o advantage_n but_o it_o be_v a_o very_a good_a cessation_n for_o ireland_n because_o the_o condition_n of_o her_o infirmity_n be_v such_o that_o she_o can_v admit_v no_o better_o for_o when_o the_o chief_a justice_n and_o officer_n of_o state_n when_o the_o chief_a commander_n and_o officer_n of_o the_o camp_n when_o both_o of_o they_o shall_v complain_v unto_o the_o king_n of_o the_o miserable_a condition_n and_o posture_n of_o ireland_n for_o very_a want_n of_o food_n and_o advertise_v he_o by_o their_o letter_n of_o her_o present_a inability_n to_o maintain_v the_o prosecution_n of_o a_o war_n what_o can_v the_o king_n do_v more_o in_o discharge_n of_o his_o duty_n both_o to_o god_n and_o man_n then_o to_o admit_v of_o a_o cessation_n in_o order_n to_o a_o present_a peace_n the_o house_n of_o parliament_n it_o seem_v will_v not_o help_v they_o at_o all_o for_o after_o six_o month_n expectation_n they_o send_v they_o provision_n of_o victual_n for_o some_o seven_o day_n as_o if_o they_o purpose_v a_o scorn_n to_o the_o misery_n of_o their_o poor_a brethren_n rather_o than_o a_o succour_n and_o the_o king_n can_v not_o help_v they_o better_o then_o by_o give_v his_o approbation_n to_o a_o cessation_n which_o the_o public_a minister_n of_o the_o state_n of_o ireland_n have_v order_v and_o assent_v to_o there_o as_o fit_a for_o the_o present_a condition_n of_o that_o kingdom_n and_o so_o show_v himself_o at_o least_o willing_a to_o respite_n that_o cause_n as_o well_o as_o he_o can_v which_o he_o well_o know_v himself_o unable_a to_o revenge_n now_o in_fw-la inducijs_fw-la bellum_fw-la manet_fw-la quamvis_fw-la pugna_fw-la cesset_fw-la say_v our_o book_n so_o long_o as_o the_o party_n engage_v in_o a_o war_n proceed_v no_o further_o than_o cessation_n and_o truce_n for_o a_o time_n there_o be_v only_o a_o suspension_n of_o the_o fight_n there_o be_v no_o suffocation_n of_o the_o quarrel_n which_o may_v better_o be_v resume_v again_o when_o they_o that_o manage_v it_o shall_v have_v out-grown_a those_o necessity_n and_o encumbrance_n which_o compel_v they_o first_o unto_o it_o so_o that_o if_o this_o cessation_n be_v destructive_a to_o either_o of_o the_o party_n it_o be_v most_o like_a to_o be_v so_o to_o the_o rebel_n who_o be_v not_o in_o that_o visible_a distress_n and_o want_v of_o all_o sort_n of_o provision_n as_o the_o protestant_a party_n be_v and_o if_o the_o condition_n of_o the_o protestant_n be_v the_o worse_a condition_n when_o the_o cessation_n begin_v because_o the_o actual_a necessity_n of_o both_o side_n be_v unequal_a and_o we_o want_v more_o than_o they_o certain_o the_o condition_n of_o the_o rebel_n can_v be_v the_o better_a condition_n when_o the_o cessation_n shall_v end_v because_o the_o possible_a supply_n of_o both_o side_n must_v be_v confess_v equal_a and_o they_o can_v be_v no_o more_o relieve_v than_o we_o notwithstanding_o all_o this_o this_o cessation_n of_o ireland_n be_v explode_v and_o exclaim_v against_o by_o both_o house_n of_o parliament_n as_o destructive_a to_o his_o majesty_n good_a subject_n cxlv_o and_o to_o the_o protestant_a religion_n and_o only_o for_o the_o advantage_n of_o the_o popish_a rebel_n indeed_o i_o do_v read_v that_o there_o may_v be_v destruction_n in_o a_o cessation_n for_o the_o prophet_n david_n call_v all_o man_n to_o behold_v the_o work_n of_o the_o lord_n and_o what_o destruction_n he_o have_v wrought_v upon_o the_o earth_n in_o the_o 46_o psalm_n make_v his_o first_o instance_n in_o the_o point_n of_o a_o cessation_n in_o the_o next_o word_n that_o follow_v he_o make_v war_n to_o cease_v vers._n 9_o but_o the_o prophet_n have_v a_o mystical_a meaning_n in_o his_o word_n and_o so_o no_o doubt_n have_v they_o for_o sure_o they_o mean_v that_o a_o cessation_n be_v destructive_a to_o the_o good_a subject_n of_o ireland_n just_a in_o the_o very_a same_o sense_n that_o the_o want_n of_o victual_n be_v a_o preservative_n for_o they_o and_o if_o that_o be_v not_o a_o mystical_a sense_n i_o know_v not_o what_o be_v but_o if_o these_o man_n will_v speak_v plain_a they_o will_v say_v that_o this_o cessation_n in_o ireland_n be_v destructive_a to_o his_o majesty_n ill_a subject_n here_o in_o england_n who_o can_v have_v that_o convenient_a colour_n now_o to_o raise_v force_n and_o levy_v money_n for_o the_o suppression_n of_o a_o rebellion_n there_o which_o money_n and_o force_n they_o may_v convert_v as_o heretofore_o too_o often_o they_o have_v do_v to_o the_o feed_n and_o foment_v of_o their_o own_o rebellion_n here_o and_o this_o be_v evident_o the_o reason_n why_o they_o so_o desire_v a_o prosecution_n of_o the_o war_n in_o ireland_n and_o demand_v the_o settlement_n of_o that_o prosecution_n in_o their_o own_o hand_n that_o have_v once_o a_o power_n of_o impropriate_v all_o the_o succour_n of_o ireland_n to_o their_o own_o rebellious_a end_n and_o purpose_n they_o may_v with_o better_a advantage_n manage_v the_o war_n here_o in_o england_n against_o the_o king_n when_o they_o shall_v have_v two_o sword_n for_o his_o one_o and_o may_v fight_v against_o he_o not_o only_o with_o his_o enemy_n but_o with_o his_o friend_n for_o if_o both_o house_n of_o parliament_n intend_v only_o the_o prosecution_n of_o justice_n upon_o those_o accurse_a rebel_n and_o not_o some_o vicious_a end_n of_o their_o own_o no_o less_o accurse_v than_o they_o for_o the_o ground_n of_o all_o rebellion_n be_v alike_o and_o if_o there_o be_v any_o just_a ground_n for_o one_o no_o ground_n be_v unjust_a that_o be_v lay_v for_o any_o other_o certain_o the_o king_n will_v be_v think_v on_o as_o a_o fit_a instrument_n of_o execution_n whither_o he_o be_v consider_v as_o king_n or_o as_o one_o single_a person_n who_o can_v have_v but_o one_o will_n and_o so_o can_v differ_v from_o himself_o than_o a_o collect_a body_n make_v out_o of_o many_o person_n of_o two_o kingdom_n those_o of_o each_o kingdom_n have_v a_o negative_a voice_n who_o thereby_o may_v have_v two_o will_n and_o so_o differ_v among_o themselves_o whereby_o the_o main_a business_n must_v needs_o receive_v obstruction_n neither_o do_v that_o avoid_v this_o

beside_o when_o the_o parliament_n have_v a_o mind_n to_o settle_v the_o militia_n of_o england_n for_o the_o preservation_n of_o the_o peace_n in_o the_o hand_n of_o some_o commissioner_n of_o
