sometime_o more_o out_o of_o his_o own_o purse_n and_o have_v borrow_a sometime_o to_o lend_v for_o the_o service_n of_o the_o state_n and_o for_o sir_n william_n waller_n business_n i_o think_v they_o shall_v give_v a_o peer_n of_o the_o lord_n house_n liberty_n to_o use_v his_o reason_n what_o he_o do_v in_o that_o he_o do_v only_o concur_v with_o other_o in_o both_o house_n and_o by_o the_o same_o reason_n they_o charge_v it_o upon_o his_o lordship_n they_o charge_v it_o upon_o the_o house_n and_o if_o so_o they_o appeal_v to_o themselves_o and_o place_v the_o judgement_n not_o in_o the_o parliament_n which_o they_o pretend_v too_o but_o in_o the_o people_n this_o let_v i_o add_v that_o in_o my_o weak_a opinion_n that_o commission_n in_o which_o though_o power_n be_v derive_v to_o sir_n william_n from_o his_o excellency_n yet_o his_o instruction_n be_v to_o issue_v from_o the_o parliament_n and_o at_o this_o rate_n how_o can_v his_o excellency_n command_v sir_n

thing_n be_v that_o this_o lord_n be_v the_o occasion_n of_o mr._n eye_n go_v into_o scotland_n and_o that_o he_o go_v purposely_o to_o hinder_v the_o scot_n from_o come_v in_o because_o they_o will_v hinder_v the_o set_n up_o of_o a_o independent_a government_n in_o church_n the_o falsity_n of_o that_o appear_v beside_o what_o he_o have_v say_v to_o gentleman_n of_o trust_n of_o the_o necessity_n of_o the_o scot_n come_v in_o by_o the_o effect_n for_o the_o scot_n do_v come_v in_o and_o both_o mr_n nye_n and_o that_o lord_n have_v take_v the_o covenant_n and_o be_v forward_a instrument_n in_o further_a that_o work_n all_o they_o can_v and_o as_o for_o accommodation_n of_o peace_n which_o he_o be_v charge_v to_o be_v forward_o in_o he_o be_v never_o further_o for_o it_o then_o what_o

of_o this_o their_o belief_n and_o i_o be_o confident_a can_v procure_v none_o by_o all_o their_o art_n the_o wise_a of_o man_n know_v that_o if_o the_o court_n can_v have_v tempt_v he_o and_o violate_v his_o principle_n he_o need_v not_o have_v be_v so_o much_o want_v to_o himself_o as_o now_o to_o have_v his_o peace_n to_o be_v make_v up_o he_o may_v have_v maintain_v it_o at_o a_o easy_a rate_n than_o now_o he_o can_v if_o any_o such_o thought_n can_v enter_v into_o he_o regain_v it_o but_o who_o can_v imagine_v that_o a_o prudent_a man_n shall_v run_v the_o hazard_n of_o his_o honour_n estate_n and_o every_o thing_n and_o this_o in_o pure_a opposition_n to_o the_o court_n and_o yet_o with_o design_n to_o comply_v with_o it_o why_o shall_v the_o court_n inveigh_v against_o he_o more_o than_o any_o man_n charge_v he_o again_o and_o again_o with_o treason_n and_o yet_o he_o a_o friend_n to_o they_o when_o the_o parliament_n affair_n be_v at_o the_o low_a why_o do_v not_o he_o run_v to_o court_n as_o other_o have_v do_v why_o have_v both_o his_o excellency_n and_o this_o lord_n suffer_v with_o so_o much_o patience_n the_o people_n calumny_n from_o passion_n surmize_n jealousy_n or_o i_o know_v not_o what_o to_o call_v they_o but_o only_a their_o integrity_n to_o this_o cause_n have_v support_v their_o endeavour_n notwithstanding_o for_o the_o public_a interest_n which_o they_o make_v their_o own_o and_o as_o it_o have_v please_v god_n to_o take_v away_o the_o mist_n from_o the_o people_n eye_n touch_v my_o lord_n general_n by_o his_o last_o expedition_n so_o i_o doubt_v not_o but_o god_n in_o his_o good_a time_n will_v disperse_v the_o cloud_n as_o to_o that_o good_a lord_n also_o at_o least_o to_o disabuse_v the_o honest_a party_n this_o as_o to_o
