therein_o all_o be_v in_o the_o hand_n of_o the_o irish_a papist_n neither_o do_v we_o complain_v of_o it_o as_o hinder_v we_o from_o correspond_v with_o the_o king_n enemy_n for_o it_o be_v the_o duty_n of_o all_o good_a subject_n to_o abstain_v from_o that_o but_o as_o scotland_n though_o the_o king_n subject_n claim_v a_o exemption_n from_o all_o law_n but_o what_o they_o assent_n to_o in_o parliament_n so_o we_o think_v this_o our_o right_n also_o when_o the_o banish_a laity_n of_o ireland_n observe_v the_o clergy_n thus_o careful_a to_o secure_v their_o property_n and_o provide_v for_o the_o worst_a as_o well_o as_o they_o can_v in_o that_o juncture_n when_o no_o other_o mean_n can_v be_v take_v by_o a_o regular_a parliament_n in_o ireland_n they_o think_v it_o likewise_o
