late_a popish_a army_n many_o of_o the_o officer_n and_o soldier_n have_v secret_a order_n not_o to_o sell_v their_o horse_n but_o to_o be_v in_o a_o readiness_n for_o that_o they_o shall_v have_v

the_o catholic_n party_n for_o first_o among_o foreigner_n and_o stranger_n who_o be_v not_o acquaint_v with_o the_o depth_n of_o their_o intrigue_n it_o seem_v to_o cast_v the_o plot_n upon_o the_o

at_o our_o hand_n what_o charitable_a christian_n be_v we_o grow_v thus_o to_o return_v good_a for_o evil_n i_o must_v confess_v they_o do_v ever_o treat_v his_o r._n h._n with_o some_o respect_n as_o
