A89919	A project for an equitable and lasting peace. Designed in the year 1643. when the affairs stood in ballance before the second coming of the Scots into this kingdom, from a desire to have kept them out then. With a disquisition how the said project may now be reduced to fit the present conjuncture of affairs, in a letter sent to divers prudent persons of all sorts. For preventing the Scots bringing an army into England a third time, or making themselves umpires of our affaires. By a cordiall agreement of the King, Parliament, City, Army, and of all the people in this kingdome among our selves.

sure_a to_o have_v all_o the_o copy_n in_o my_o own_o keep_n and_o so_o i_o remain_v dated_n junii_fw-la 1648._o the_o climacterical_a year_n of_o this_o kingdom_n sir_n your_o most_o humble_a

it_o be_v first_o design_v nor_o in_o all_o the_o long_a time_n since_o elapse_v and_o yet_o have_v thought_n of_o do_v it_o now_o you_o may_v therefore_o please_v to_o understand_v that_o my_o purpose_n at_o first_o be_v to_o have_v print_v two_o copy_n thereof_o the_o one_o at_o london_n the_o other_o at_o oxford_n to_o avoid_v the_o great_a prejudice_n of_o be_v repute_v partial_a but_o before_o i_o can_v effect_v this_o it_o come_v to_o my_o knowledge_n that_o the_o writer_n of_o the_o consideration_n have_v find_v mean_n to_o have_v they_o put_v into_o the_o hand_n of_o certain_a person_n of_o prime_a quality_n and_o credit_n in_o both_o place_n and_o have_v find_v that_o the_o cornerstone_n of_o his_o consideration_n and_o of_o my_o project_n borrow_v from_o he_o be_v reject_v by_o some_o of_o too_o great_a power_n on_o both_o side_n as_o he_o foresee_v and_o foretell_v it_o be_v like_a to_o be_v this_o make_v i_o give_v over_o my_o purpose_n at_o that_o time_n and_o from_o that_o time_n the_o design_n lie_v by_o i_o as_o a_o neglect_a and_o useless_a piece_n till_o the_o army_n have_v get_v the_o king_n into_o their_o power_n be_v upon_o their_o march_n from_o newmarket_n with_o a_o intention_n as_o be_v voice_v to_o have_v bring_v his_o majesty_n up_o to_o london_n without_o more_o ado_n the_o apprehension_n i_o then_o have_v that_o this_o may_v prove_v very_o dangerous_a to_o the_o commonwealth_n to_o the_o prosperity_n whereof_o and_o of_o hit_v majesty_n if_o i_o know_v my_o own_o heart_n it_o beat_v with_o a_o equal_a pulse_n stir_v i_o

palace_n at_o westminster_n and_o to_o that_o end_n have_v send_v this_o simple_a project_n to_o a_o licencer_n in_o this_o nick_n of_o time_n forth_o come_v the_o army_n declaration_n of_o the_o 4._o of_o june_n 1647._o wherein_o find_v the_o main_a of_o what_o i_o have_v ever_o think_v very_o expedient_a if_o not_o altogether_o necessary_a to_o be_v main_o insist_v on_o by_o sir_n thomas_n fairfax_n and_o his_o officer_n and_o soldier_n i_o be_v much_o rejoice_v to_o see_v the_o work_n whereunto_o i_o desire_v to_o have_v contribute_v my_o weak_a endeavour_n to_o be_v take_v into_o

no_o regard_n be_v since_o fall_v from_o what_o they_o then_o declare_v to_o be_v their_o deliberate_a and_o determinate_a judgement_n i_o leave_v he_o and_o they_o to_o give_v a_o account_n to_o god_n and_o the_o world_n i_o be_o sure_a it_o be_v common_o believe_v that_o they_o only_o make_v show_v of_o be_v of_o the_o mind_n at_o large_a express_v in_o the_o forementioned_a declaration_n to_o ingratiate_v themselves_o with_o the_o kingdom_n till_o by_o that_o mean_v they_o have_v quiet_o get_v all_o the_o strength_n thereof_o into_o their_o own_o and_o their_o party_n hand_n and_o that_o they_o be_v at_o present_a the_o most_o averse_a of_o any_o other_o to_o a_o personal_a treaty_n at_o london_n on_o the_o other_o side_n it_o be_v too_o manifest_a that_o the_o generality_n

apprehend_v like_o to_o be_v of_o hard_a digestion_n to_o his_o majesty_n and_o it_o be_v further_o apprehend_v that_o the_o two_o house_n of_o parliament_n may_v also_o happen_v to_o be_v divide_v upon_o this_o point_n perchance_o a_o middle_a way_n may_v be_v find_v as_o fair_a and_o safe_a as_o either_o of_o the_o former_a and_o not_o impassable_a either_o with_o his_o majesty_n or_o with_o
