a_o word_n within-door_n or_o a_o reply_n to_o a_o word_n without-door_n in_o which_o the_o divers_a opinion_n of_o succession_n to_o the_o crown_n of_o england_n be_v compare_v in_o a_o letter_n to_o

the_o prince_n must_v be_v a_o protestant_n to_o these_o man_n we_o need_v return_v no_o other_o answer_n than_o the_o sense_n of_o the_o late_a house_n of_o commons_o in_o which_o his_o r.h._n have_v
