give_v a_o clear_a and_o large_a demonstration_n of_o their_o gild_n and_o it_o be_v very_o likely_a his_o majesty_n will_n by_o and_z with_o the_o advice_n of_o his_o most_o honourable_a privy_a

of_o the_o crime_n i_o wish_v with_o all_o my_o heart_n it_o may_v be_v the_o last_o plot_n that_o may_v ever_o be_v conspire_v against_o our_o sovereign_n who_o mercy_n be_v daily_o manifest_v to_o

most_o merciful_a prince_n the_o world_n can_v ever_o boast_v of_o but_o if_o we_o look_v back_o upon_o the_o eye_n of_o providence_n we_o can_v but_o see_v the_o great_a and_o particular_a kindness_n our_o most_o bless_a creator_n have_v for_o our_o most_o gracious_a king_n what_o a_o miraculous_a preservation_n be_v that_o at_o worcester_n when_o a_o prince_n of_o the_o great_a splendour_n in_o

who_o like_o worthy_a soul_n be_v free_a to_o participate_v of_o the_o deplorable_a sorrow_n his_o majesty_n then_o meet_v with_o what_o strange_a and_o wonderful_a design_n have_v be_v since_o several_a time_n contrive_v against_o he_o who_o the_o heaven_n have_v preserve_v but_o we_o may_v conclude_v with_o this_o ancient_a proverb_n si_fw-mi deus_fw-la pro_fw-la nobis_fw-la quis_fw-la contra_fw-la nos_fw-la and_o it_o be_v undoubtedlie_o true_a that_o he_o that_o show_v mercy_n shall_v also_o find_v mercy_n it_o have_v so_o happen_v to_o our_o sovereign_n and_o i_o hope_v the_o mercy_n of_o the_o most_o high_a will_n still_o continue_v to_o he_o and_o be_v multiply_v more_o and_o more_o that_o our_o poor_a nation_n too_o much_o divide_v by_o faction_n may_v be_v bless_v by_o the_o long_a continuance_n of_o a_o unparraleld_a monarch_n who_o clemency_n be_v to_o be_v amire_v who_o mercy_n be_v to_o be_v praise_v and_o who_o enemy_n hope_n will_v be_v defeat_v and_o those_o that_o shall_v either_o attempt_v or_o at_o least_o imagine_v the_o least_o harm_n to_o his_o princely_a person_n may_v they_o be_v utterlie_o confound_v in_o their_o evil_a design_n against_o he_o that_o poor_a england_n may_v again_o flourish_v as_o before_o that_o have_v late_o be_v encumber_v with_o prodigious_a conspirator_n hatch_n such_o wicked_a and_o hellish_a contrivance_n that_o it_o be_v a_o shame_n to_o all_o loyal_a person_n to_o reiterate_v or_o rather_o to_o harbour_v in_o the_o secret_a corner_n of_o their_o loyal_a heart_n and_o i_o think_v no_o reasonable_a person_n can_v
