A74937	The interest of England in the Irish transplantation, stated wherein is held forth (to all concerned in Irelands good settlement) the benefits the Irish transplantation will bring to each of them in particular, and to the Common-wealth in general, being chiefly intended as an answer to a scandalous, seditious pamphlet, entituled, The great case of transplantation in Ireland discussed. Composed and published at the request of several persons in eminent place in Ireland, to the end all who desire it, might have a true account of the proceedings that have been there in the business of transplantation, both as to the rise, progress, and end thereof. By a faithfull servant of the Common-wealth, Richard Laurence.	Lawrence, Richard, d. 1684.	1655 (1655)	Wing L678; Thomason E829_17; ESTC R179375	23,297	35

in_o the_o heart_n of_o the_o present_a person_n in_o power_n in_o ireland_n towards_o the_o native_n there_o i_o hope_v the_o sense_n of_o so_o sad_a a_o judgement_n as_o a_o new_a rebellion_n must_v

obstruct_v a_o present_a settlement_n and_o as_o i_o do_v believe_v the_o jesuit_n and_o priest_n in_o the_o begin_n of_o the_o late_a rebellion_n do_v profess_v as_o much_o affection_n and_o

most_o general_o in_o the_o hand_n of_o the_o nobleman_n and_o chief_a gentry_n who_o be_v for_o the_o most_o part_n except_v person_n for_o life_n and_o estate_n or_o under_o banishment_n by_o the_o

ireland_n yet_o much_o the_o great_a part_n of_o they_o be_v transport_v into_o foreign_a nation_n so_o that_o though_o it_o be_v hard_a to_o determine_v the_o number_n of_o these_o two_o sort_n of_o

to_o the_o number_n doubtless_o if_o any_o at_o all_o it_o be_v not_o rational_a to_o think_v of_o less_o than_o these_o two_o sort_n of_o person_n will_v amount_v unto_o but_o second_o as_o to_o the_o person_n themselves_o why_o these_o two_o sort_n of_o person_n rather_o than_o other_o i_o answer_v first_o for_o the_o man_n in_o arm_n i_o judge_v there_o be_v not_o much_o scruple_n that_o this_o one_o reason_n if_o there_o be_v no_o more_o may_v serve_v that_o they_o have_v have_v their_o hand_n imbrue_v in_o the_o blood_n of_o the_o english_a in_o the_o late_a in_o humane_a

of_o they_o have_v a_o very_a great_a interest_n in_o and_o influence_n on_o the_o people_n among_o who_o they_o reside_v that_o next_o unto_o the_o priest_n and_o landlord_n the_o soldier_n be_v
