the_o scoundrel_n rabble_n of_o london_n who_o be_v ready_a and_o have_v be_v this_o forty_o year_n to_o back_o any_o seditious_a petition_n and_o to_o come_v down_o to_o westminster_n and_o

their_o malicious_a act_n threaten_v no_o less_o now_o than_o they_o do_v to_o his_o majesty_n father_n god_n bless_v he_o and_o i_o think_v it_o no_o great_a loss_n if_o these_o gentleman_n be_v

tom._n i_o will_v tell_v thou_o sam._n if_o the_o parliament_n will_v behave_v themselves_o as_o they_o ought_v to_o the_o king_n majesty_n and_o the_o royal_a line_n and_o offer_v no_o injury_n to_o the_o church_n bishop_n clergy_n university_n nor_o scholar_n and_o give_v the_o king_n his_o reasonable_a request_n i_o will_v warrant_v thou_o the_o scholar_n will_v be_v as_o civil_a as_o can_v be_v but_o by_o my_o faith_n if_o they_o find_v either_o the_o church_n or_o themselves_o touch_v upon_o it_o will_v be_v a_o hard_a matter_n to_o rule_v they_o they_o be_v like_o seaman_n one_o and_o all_o sam._n still_o i_o be_o for_o old_a london_n thou_o know_v the_o king_n have_v borrow_v many_o hundred_o thousand_o pound_n of_o the_o city_n and_o the_o east-india_n company_n and_o never_o need_v to_o want_v money_n for_o a_o fair_a word_n to_o the_o city_n tom._n it_o be_v very_o true_a but_o he_o always_o pay_v double_a interest_n for_o what_o he_o have_v of_o they_o so_o that_o it_o be_v a_o great_a courtesy_n to_o the_o city_n to_o lend_v it_o than_o to_o the_o king_n to_o have_v the_o loan_n but_o now_o that_o business_n be_v over_o they_o will_v lend_v no_o more_o money_n but_o upon_o parliament-security_n have_v they_o continue_v to_o have_v be_v the_o same_o city_n they_o be_v in_o 1660_o and_o some_o year_n after_o i_o believ_n the_o king_n will_v never_o have_v remove_v the_o parliament_n to_o oxford_n but_o since_o they_o now_o be_v become_v that_o city_n they_o be_v in_o 1640._o i_o think_v the_o king_n do_v wise_a to_o remove_v the_o parliament_n to_o oxford_n that_o true_a loyal_a city_n where_o every_o man_n love_v the_o name_n of_o the_o king_n and_o that_o show_v so_o much_o fidelity_n to_o his_o father_n then_o let_v the_o parliament_n and_o the_o factious_a city_n of_o london_n send_v he_o to_o oxford_n as_o they_o do_v his_o father_n will._n then_o let_v we_o all_o go_v to_o oxford_n and_o pray_v for_o the_o good_a success_n of_o this_o parliament_n a_o second_o discourse_n betwixt_o sam._n the_o ferryman_n of_o dochet_n will._n the_o waterman_n of_o london_n and_o tom._n the_o bargeman_n of_o oxford_n upon_o the_o come_v of_o the_o two_o last_v down_o the_o river_n from_o oxford_n sam._n how_o do_v all_o our_o friend_n at_o the_o court_n at_o oxford_n it_o be_v strange_a will._n thou_o shall_v come_v again_o so_o soon_o will._n thou_o know_v i_o tell_v thou_o i_o most_o follow_v the_o court_n and_o i'faith_o at_o this_o time_n he_o have_v be_v a_o cunning_a man_n that_o have_v go_v before_o it_o his_o majesty_n give_v not_o

reason_n to_o complain_v of_o this_o parliament_n tom._n but_o the_o town_n of_o oxford_n will_v have_v reason_n to_o complain_v while_o they_o live_v but_o the_o best_a open_v be_v some_o londoner_n will_v have_v house_n to_o set_v in_o oxford_n at_z as_o good_a rate_n as_o they_o take_v they_o have_v his_o majesty_n make_v a_o cocking_n or_o a_o hunting-match_n at_o oxford_n he_o have_v do_v

to_o do_v something_o at_o oxford_n shall_v make_v they_o be_v sudden_o send_v away_o again_o and_o so_o bilk_v the_o town_n of_o their_o expectation_n sam._n they_o say_v the_o town_n much_o matter_v not_o the_o court_n and_o the_o mayor_n and_o the_o alderman_n of_o oxford_n be_v as_o much_o against_o it_o as_o the_o common_a council_n be_v at_o london_n tom._n o_o that_o be_v because_o the_o
