application_n the_o scot_n can_v find_v enough_o to_o vindicate_v themselves_o from_o rebellion_n at_o the_o first_o of_o these_o motion_n and_o yet_o can_v willing_o tax_v we_o at_o the_o end_n for_o

charge_n they_o say_v there_o be_v not_o one_o word_n true_a but_o that_o his_o late_a majesty_n be_v redact_v to_o a_o extreme_a course_n it_o be_v well_o first_o to_o consider_v whether_o in_o a_o

from_o the_o first_o they_o spend_v several_a page_n and_o strive_v to_o give_v a_o narrative_a of_o all_o proceed_n in_o the_o army_n and_o parliament_n both_o in_o england_n and_o scotland_n from_o

the_o charge_n as_o it_o come_v out_o of_o montrosse_n mouth_n and_o under_o so_o unclean_a a_o hand_n yet_o for_o truth_n sake_n and_o see_v they_o be_v not_o content_a to_o free_v themselves_o but_o to_o charge_v we_o and_o mix_v therewith_o many_o ominous_a reflection_n on_o this_o nation_n i_o shall_v present_v something_o more_o than_o probable_a that_o may_v make_v the_o penner_n of_o that_o

and_o the_o question_n will_v soon_o be_v resolve_v the_o truth_n be_v as_o hudson_n himself_o relate_v and_o profess_v to_o some_o of_o honesty_n and_o integrity_n that_o the_o king_n employ_v
