master_n speaker_n be_v not_o proper_o a_o objection_n but_o rather_o a_o preoccupation_n of_o a_o objection_n of_o the_o other_o side_n for_o it_o may_v be_v say_v and_o very_o material_o whereabout_o we_o do_v contend_v the_o benefit_n of_o naturalisation_n be_v by_o the_o law_n in_o as_o many_o as_o have_v be_v or_o shall_v be_v bear_v since_o his_o majesty_n come_v to_o the_o

and_o therefore_o as_o the_o law_n have_v but_o a_o transitory_a assurance_n of_o he_o so_o it_o reward_v he_o but_o with_o transitory_a benefit_n the_o three_o degree_n be_v of_o a_o subject_n who_o
