a_o confutation_n of_o some_o pretend_a reason_n for_o his_o majesty_n issue_v a_o general_n pardon_v to_o the_o rebel_n of_o ireland_n that_o will_v submit_v without_o exemption_n of_o the_o

to_o make_v he_o one_o of_o the_o late_a king_n james_n counsellor_n who_o be_v fame_v for_o nothing_o but_o impudence_n and_o and_o he_o begin_v with_o the_o mischief_n that_o will_v attend_v his_o

of_o this_o argument_n for_o first_o he_o tell_v we_o that_o the_o considerable_a man_n will_v stifle_v and_o keep_v the_o pardon_n from_o the_o rest_n if_o this_o be_v true_a he_o need_v not_o to_o have_v proceed_v any_o further_a but_o he_o can_v hardly_o trust_v himself_o so_o much_o as_o to_o express_v this_o argument_n before_o he_o fly_v to_o another_o as_o improbable_a as_o the_o former_a and_o that_o be_v the_o clergy_n will_v blast_v and_o baffle_v the_o credit_n of_o the_o declaration_n have_v any_o but_o a_o irish_a understanding_n undertake_v this_o assertion_n he_o will_v not_o have_v insist_v upon_o two_o point_n so_o apparent_o irrational_a and_o inconclusive_a that_o every_o man_n of_o ireland_n can_v prove_v to_o be_v notorious_o false_a and_o at_o the_o same_o time_n have_v omit_v that_o which_o seem_v to_o be_v considerable_a viz._n that_o the_o grandee_n of_o the_o irish_a have_v such_o a_o influence_n over_o the_o commonalty_n and_o they_o such_o a_o love_n for_o their_o lord_n that_o nothing_o can_v disengage_v they_o from_o their_o interest_n but_o that_o they_o will_v either_o have_v a_o general_n pardon_v or_o else_o universal_o suffer_v but_o this_o it_o seem_v he_o think_v not_o of_o but_o grant_v that_o if_o they_o know_v of_o the_o pardon_n unless_o the_o clergy_n baffle_v the_o credit_n of_o it_o there_o be_v a_o probability_n of_o their_o

that_o best_o understand_v the_o disposition_n of_o the_o irish_a know_v they_o to_o be_v the_o most_o inquisitive_a people_n in_o the_o world._n a_o fellow_n under_o a_o ditch_n look_v to_o his_o

credit_n of_o it_o that_o be_v as_o easy_o answer_v for_o persuasion_n against_o matter_n of_o fact_n will_v take_v no_o place_n when_o a_o considerable_a part_n of_o the_o kingdom_n do_v actual_o enjoy_v the_o full_a benefit_n of_o the_o pardon_n who_o will_v believe_v a_o man_n that_o only_o confident_o affirm_v they_o will_v not_o so_o far_o be_v this_o from_o a_o question_n that_o the_o irish_a have_v not_o the_o least_o occasion_n of_o suspicion_n because_o they_o never_o fail_v of_o a_o inviolable_a performance_n of_o article_n from_o the_o english_a i_o think_v there_o need_v no_o reply_n to_o all_o the_o direful_a effect_n he_o mention_n as_o consequential_a to_o their_o stand_v out_o because_o by_o his_o own_o concession_n it_o seem_v they_o will_v submit_v if_o they_o hear_v of_o and_o believe_v the_o pardon_n and_o i_o presume_v it_o be_v plain_o prove_v that_o they_o will_v do_v both_o his_o second_o head_n be_v allow_v no_o doubt_n but_o the_o irish_a will_v lay_v
