will_v hold_v the_o crown_n itself_o by_o no_o better_a a_o tenure_n then_o durante_fw-la bene_fw-la placito_fw-la nor_o can_v you_o expect_v that_o he_o shall_v grant_v you_o that_o together_o with_o

say_v you_o the_o king_n pretend_v to_o ask_v nothing_o but_o what_o be_v law_n why_o do_v he_o require_v we_o to_o adjourn_v from_o london_n sir_n he_o never_o require_v it_o he_o require_v a_o security_n from_o tumult_n and_o violence_n for_o himself_o and_o both_o house_n and_o this_o sure_a be_v due_a to_o he_o by_o the_o law_n the_o other_o course_n he_o only_o propose_v as_o that_o which_o in_o his_o opinion_n can_v only_o effect_v it_o and_o true_o if_o the_o mind_n of_o the_o rabble_n of_o london_n be_v not_o much_o alter_v since_o i_o leave_v it_o i_o must_v be_v much_o of_o his_o mind_n but_o say_v you_o the_o king_n be_v ever_o offer_v that_o he_o be_v indeed_o sir_n but_o at_o the_o same_o time_n they_o defend_v that_o there_o have_v be_v no_o tumult_n so_o that_o the_o king_n can_v not_o receive_v so_o much_o of_o security_n from_o their_o offer_n as_o the_o tumult_n must_v needs_o receive_v of_o encouragement_n from_o their_o defence_n the_o sense_n of_o what_o they_o say_v put_v together_o be_v only_o this_o that_o they_o will_v secure_v he_o and_o we_o from_o any_o thing_n which_o they_o will_v confess_v to_o be_v a_o tumult_n but_o for_o my_o part_n if_o i_o be_v constrain_v &_o in_o danger_n it_o be_v not_o enough_o for_o i_o that_o you_o vote_v i_o free_a and_o safe_a call_v they_o tumult_n or_o not_o as_o you_o please_v if_o there_o be_v that_o which_o look_v as_o like_a tumult_n as_o the_o last_o do_v i_o shall_v be_v though_o perhaps_o in_o more_o safety_n yet_o in_o no_o more_o security_n then_o at_o edgehill_n but_o say_v you_o what_o a_o ungrateful_a thing_n be_v it_o of_o the_o parliament_n to_o desert_n that_o city_n from_o which_o they_o have_v receive_v so_o large_a assistance_n true_o sir_n the_o country_n god_n forgive_v it_o have_v contribute_v not_o a_o little_a to_o your_o assistance_n too_o and_o aught_o to_o have_v some_o part_n of_o your_o care_n and_o for_o the_o city_n itself_o beside_o that_o allegiance_n be_v a_o duty_n as_o well_o as_o gratitude_n and_o a_o precedent_a bond_n to_o this_o in_o my_o opinion_n even_o for_o their_o sake_n you_o ought_v to_o consent_v to_o this_o advice_n do_v you_o think_v that_o city_n will_v be_v able_a to_o bear_v that_o burden_n of_o envy_n which_o must_v fall_v upon_o they_o from_o all_o the_o rest_n of_o the_o nation_n if_o they_o see_v you_o for_o this_o consideration_n expose_v they_o to_o all_o the_o misery_n of_o war_n rather_o than_o remove_v twenty_o mile_n from_o thence_o though_o the_o king_n allow_v you_o your_o own_o choice_n of_o a_o place_n out_o of_o all_o the_o whole_a kingdom_n beside_o nay_o do_v you_o think_v that_o if_o the_o army_n be_v disband_v the_o peace_n again_o begin_v and_o the_o whole_a parliament_n now_o meet_v at_o st_n alban_n that_o the_o city_n will_v not_o find_v both_o their_o charge_n much_o diminish_v and_o their_o trade_n and_o get_n much_o increase_v and_o a_o miraculous_a change_n of_o their_o condition_n to_o the_o better_a nor_o can_v any_o inconvenience_n come_v by_o it_o unless_o you_o think_v freedom_n not_o only_o not_o essential_a to_o but_o not_o consistent_a with_o such_o meeting_n and_o unless_o it_o be_v your_o opinion_n that_o no_o tumult_n no_o parliament_n but_o say_v you_o suppose_v the_o king_n in_o justice_n may_v ask_v and_o refuse_v all_o he_o do_v be_v it_o not_o yet_o prudent_a for_o the_o king_n rather_o to_o consent_v to_o part_v with_o some_o of_o his_o right_n then_o to_o venture_v all_o the_o rest_n and_o be_v it_o justifiable_a in_o he_o to_o destroy_v his_o kingdom_n and_o so_o many_o innocent_n by_o not_o end_v the_o war_n when_o now_o he_o may_v sir_n i_o be_o confident_a since_o you_o be_v able_a to_o say_v nothing_o against_o it_o or_o if_o you_o be_v why_o do_v you_o not_o you_o will_v as_o well_o have_v grant_v as_o have_v suppose_v this_o if_o you_o have_v not_o fear_v sr_n robert_z pie_n fortune_n that_o your_o letter_n may_v have_v be_v read_v at_o the_o close_a committee_n and_o till_o you_o give_v i_o reason_n why_o you_o can_v grant_v it_o i_o must_v assume_v it_o as_o if_o you_o do_v and_o then_o true_o i_o must_v tell_v you_o that_o this_o logic_n will_v in_o all_o time_n render_v the_o wise_a and_o the_o welnatured_a a_o prey_n to_o the_o unreasonable_a and_o the_o furious_a and_o that_o as_o there_o be_v some_o outward_a medicine_n for_o the_o stone_n and_o the_o gout_n which_o only_a stupify_a and_o not_o remove_v the_o cause_n give_v only_o a_o little_a ease_n for_o the_o present_a but_o make_v the_o fit_v both_o more_o frequent_a and_o more_o fierce_a so_o the_o accept_n of_o such_o condition_n may_v ease_v we_o for_o the_o present_a of_o this_o rebellion_n but_o when_o it_o be_v see_v that_o to_o seize_v and_o usurp_v all_o the_o king_n right_n and_o peremptory_o to_o resolve_v rather_o to_o destroy_v the_o kingdom_n then_o to_o give_v they_o up_o again_o be_v the_o way_n to_o persuade_v he_o to_o relinquish_v a_o good_a part_n of_o they_o it_o may_v so_o far_o encourage_v future_a rebellion_n that_o we_o may_v doubt_v they_o will_v be_v hereafter_o as_o triennial_n as_o parliament_n till_o the_o king_n by_o this_o logic_n and_o little_a by_o little_a have_v give_v so_o much_o to_o appease_v they_o that_o nothing_o will_v be_v leave_v he_o either_o to_o give_v or_o to_o keep_v and_o out_o of_o his_o care_n of_o his_o people_n he_o have_v make_v they_o none_o of_o he_o and_o have_v engage_v they_o beside_o into_o the_o misery_n of_o many_o war_n by_o pay_v so_o dear_o for_o the_o end_n of_o this_o but_o sir_n i_o pray_v turn_v your_o argument_n on_o the_o other_o side_n both_o house_n have_v not_o kingdom_n of_o their_o own_o to_o see_v destroy_v by_o the_o war_n but_o they_o have_v right_n as_o house_n and_o estate_n as_o person_n which_o be_v their_o all_o be_v to_o be_v prudential_o of_o the_o same_o concern_v to_o they_o and_o suppose_v the_o king_n do_v ask_v they_o to_o part_v with_o some_o of_o their_o right_n or_o estate_n be_v it_o prudent_a or_o justifiable_a in_o they_o by_o the_o same_o reason_n to_o venture_v all_o their_o right_n rather_o than_o part_v with_o some_o and_o to_o destroy_v their_o fortune_n the_o kingdom_n and_o so_o many_o innocent_n by_o not_o end_v the_o war_n when_o they_o may_v but_o alas_o how_o much_o more_o imprudent_a and_o unjustifiable_a be_v it_o in_o they_o to_o venture_v all_o and_o destroy_v the_o kingdom_n and_o so_o many_o innocent_n by_o continue_v this_o war_n rather_o than_o to_o grant_v to_o the_o king_n what_o be_v just_o and_o notorious_o his_o own_o or_o forbear_v to_o insist_v that_o he_o shall_v grant_v that_o to_o they_o which_o you_o do_v not_o so_o much_o as_o pretend_v in_o justice_n to_o belong_v to_o they_o and_o do_v you_o think_v whether_o the_o people_n will_v not_o be_v excellent_o satisfy_v and_o who_o they_o will_v adhere_v unto_o in_o it_o when_o they_o see_v the_o cause_n of_o the_o continuance_n of_o this_o miserable_a war_n thus_o short_o true_o and_o clear_o state_v and_o lay_v open_a can_v you_o sir_n pretend_v any_o long_a to_o be_v think_v one_o of_o the_o moderate_a by_o any_o other_o title_n then_o by_o live_v among_o those_o who_o be_v somewhat_o mad_a than_o yourself_o if_o you_o can_v believe_v that_o the_o require_v much_o that_o be_v neither_o reasonable_a nor_o they_o argue_v inclination_n to_o peace_n in_o both_o house_n &_o the_o king_n ask_v but_o somewhat_o that_o be_v reasonable_a and_o his_o own_o show_v a_o aversion_n to_o it_o in_o his_o majesty_n &_o if_o you_o continue_v to_o blame_v the_o king_n for_o not_o grant_v what_o you_o only_o suppose_v it_o prudence_n to_o grant_v &_o continue_v to_o join_v with_o &_o assist_v those_o against_o your_o allegiance_n and_o against_o he_o who_o insist_v upon_o that_o which_o the_o same_o rule_n of_o prudence_n do_v oblige_v they_o not_o to_o insist_v upon_o and_o the_o rule_n of_o justice_n oblige_v they_o not_o to_o have_v ask_v especial_o since_o if_o your_o assistance_n and_o that_o of_o such_o as_o you_o be_v do_v not_o give_v they_o their_o
