his_o high_a displeasure_n to_o

as_o be_v soon_o see_v that_o party_n be_v so_o please_v with_o what_o the_o king_n have_v do_v that_o they_o persuade_v he_o to_o mention_v it_o in_o his_o speech_n at_o the_o next_o meeting_n of_o

of_o which_o be_v of_o another_o opinion_n for_o i_o think_v it_o will_v engage_v the_o king_n too_o far_o and_o it_o do_v give_v such_o offence_n to_o the_o parliament_n that_o it_o be_v think_v
