treasure_n but_o now_o to_o reap_v the_o full_a benefit_n of_o all_o their_o former_a cost_v be_v better_a than_o to_o have_v ireland_n a_o useless_a limb_n chargeable_a and_o hazard_v the_o health_n

ireland_n now_o be_v without_o doubt_n the_o envy_n of_o the_o jacobite_n who_o out_o of_o pure_a malice_n will_v be_v glad_a that_o the_o irish_a papist_n be_v more_o considerable_a than_o they_o be_v as_o be_v on_o their_o side_n and_o therefore_o we_o do_v not_o wonder_v if_o under_o pretence_n of_o england_n interest_n they_o desire_v to_o have_v the_o protestant_n recall_v or_o banish_v hence_o this_o country_n will_v then_o be_v a_o good_a meet_v place_n for_o the_o french_a and_o irish_a to_o renew_v their_o interrupt_a project_n and_o counsel_n and_o correspondency_n with_o the_o

the_o better_a in_o have_v so_o many_o the_o more_o englishman_n especial_o when_o the_o intend_a barack_n be_v make_v among_o we_o but_o suppose_v the_o worst_a that_o this_o project_n to_o put_v down_o our_o weoken_a manufacture_n shall_v prevail_v and_o consequent_o force_v the_o english_a protestant_n to_o withdraw_v from_o this_o island_n the_o best_a then_o that_o can_v be_v hope_v for_o will_v be_v that_o the_o scot_n will_v succeed_v in_o our_o room_n now_o pray_v what_o better_a security_n can_v england_n have_v that_o those_o industrious_a and_o hardy_a people_n will_v make_v

their_o common_a and_o national_a advantage_n without_o leave_n from_o mr._n c_o y_o and_o some_o other_o of_o the_o west_n of_o england_n therefore_o there_o be_v no_o danger_n of_o they_o for_o though_o mr._n c_o y_o can_v bridle_n nor_o saddle_n much_o less_o ride_v they_o in_o scotland_n yet_o if_o he_o catch_v they_o on_o irish_a ground_n he_o will_v tie_v they_o to_o rack_n staff_n and_o take_v away_o their_o oat_n and_o meal_n however_o i_o hope_v england_n will_v not_o try_v his_o experiment_n lest_o his_o notion_n prove_v too_o metaphysical_a to_o be_v of_o any_o use_n and_o too_o sine_fw-la for_o practice_n then_o let_v we_o conclude_v that_o england_n have_v even_o as_o good_a foster_n and_o cherish_v she_o own_o legitimate_a issue_n as_o to_o adopt_v those_o of_o other_o people_n who_o may_v perhaps_o in_o time_n forget_v that_o single_a piece_n of_o bounty_n and_o go_v on_o to_o do_v themselves_o all_o the_o good_a that_o occasion_n may_v present_v they_o with_o or_o
