as_o long_o as_o you_o can_v hold_v a_o pen_n in_o your_o hand_n you_o will_v not_o drop_v his_o cause_n there_o be_v no_o remedy_n then_o but_o i_o must_v abide_v your_o fury_n for_o i_o resolve_v

from_o you_o the_o many_o particular_a instance_n i_o have_v bring_v to_o show_v that_o your_o admire_a prince_n be_v a_o tyrant_n or_o else_o to_o prove_v that_o they_o be_v not_o act_n or_o evidence_n of_o tyranny_n you_o will_v then_o in_o the_o further_a prosecution_n of_o that_o defence_n which_o you_o have_v undertake_v and_o indeed_o of_o criminate_v one_o of_o the_o great_a and_o best_a deserve_v parliament_n that_o even_o england_n see_v lie_v aside_o your_o loose_a and_o general_a way_n of_o discourse_v and_o come_v to_o particular_n when_o you_o shall_v so_o proceed_v and_o be_v fail_v of_o a_o clear_a answer_n then_o and_o not_o till_o then_o the_o day_n will_v be_v your_o own_o for_o though_o throughout_o your_o whole_a discourse_n which_o i_o have_v be_v examine_v you_o rebellize_v the_o lord_n and_o commons_o and_o fly_v in_o the_o face_n of_o the_o parliament_n with_o the_o king_n be_v gracious_a message_n say_n etc._n etc._n oth●●s_n may_n upon_o better_a ground_n sum_v up_o the_o humble_a condescend_v convince_a petition_n message_n declaration_n etc._n etc._n of_o the_o parliament_n and_o dash_v they_o all_o into_o your_o face_n than_o you_o can_v those_o message_n and_o say_n of_o the_o king_n into_o the_o face_n of_o all_o who_o declare_v that_o he_o be_v a_o proud_a nimrod_n a_o harden_a pharaoh_n in_o plain_a english_a a_o merciless_a tyrant_n last_o to_o encourage_v you_o to_o further_a conversation_n with_o i_o the_o some_o man_n be_v so_o impudent_a as_o to_o say_v that_o it_o be_v not_o day_n when_o the_o sun_n itself_o do_v
