the_o imputation_n of_o wilfulness_n and_o moroseness_n throw_v upon_o they_o by_o their_o enemy_n upon_o the_o account_n of_o their_o refusal_n in_o this_o matter_n since_o the_o papist_n

must_v be_v set_v a_o pack_v for_o good_a and_o all_o at_o the_o end_n of_o this_o paragraph_n our_o irish_a bishop_n and_o provincial_n do_v formal_o contradict_v their_o so_o much_o cry'd-up_a vow_n of_o poventy_n and_o tell_v we_o plain_o that_o the_o people_n will_v not_o have_v regard_n to_o the_o advice_n of_o their_o ghostly_a director_n when_o they_o see_v they_o reduce_v to_o so_o low_a

jurisdiction_n and_o privilege_n may_v be_v inconsistent_a at_o present_a with_o the_o prospect_n of_o your_o majesty_n affair_n in_o england_n and_o may_v alienate_v the_o affection_n of_o the_o
