most_o gracious_a speech_n to_o both_o house_n of_o parliament_n my_o lord_n and_o gentleman_n since_o i_o last_o meet_v you_o i_o have_v use_v my_o best_a endeavour_n to_o reduce_v ireland_n into_o such_o a_o condition_n this_o year_n as_o that_o it_o may_v be_v no_o long_o a_o charge_n to_o england_n and_o it_o have_v please_v god_n to_o bless_v my_o endeavour_n with_o such_o success_n that_o i_o doubt_v not_o but_o i_o shall_v have_v be_v full_o possess_v of_o that_o kingdom_n by_o this_o time_n have_v i_o be_v enable_v to_o have_v go_v into_o the_o field_n as_o soon_o as_o i_o shall_v have_v do_v and_o as_o be_v more_o especial_o necessary_a in_o ireland_n where_o the_o rain_n be_v so_o great_a and_o begin_v so_o early_o i_o think_v myself_o oblige_v to_o take_v notice_n how_o well_o the_o army_n there_o have_v behave_v themselves_o on_o all_o occasion_n and_o bear_v great_a hardship_n with_o little_a pay_n and_o with_o so_o much_o patience_n and_o willingness_n as_o can_v not_o proceed_v but_o from_o a_o affectionate_a duty_n to_o my_o service_n and_o a_o zeal_n for_o the_o protestant_a religion_n i_o have_v already_o make_v it_o evident_a how_o much_o i_o have_v prefer_v the_o satisfaction_n of_o my_o subject_n before_o the_o most_o solid_a advantage_n of_o the_o crown_n by_o part_v with_o so_o considerable_a a_o branch_n of_o its_o inheritance_n and_o it_o be_v no_o less_o apparent_a that_o i_o have_v ask_v no_o revenue_n for_o myself_o but_o what_o i_o have_v ready_o subject_v to_o be_v charge_v to_o the_o use_v of_o the_o war._n i_o do_v at_o my_o departure_n give_v order_n for_o all_o the_o public_a account_n to_o be_v make_v ready_a for_o i_o against_o my_o return_n and_o i_o have_v command_v they_o to_o be_v lay_v before_o the_o house_n of_o commons_o by_o which_o they_o will_v see_v that_o the_o real_a want_n of_o what_o be_v necessary_a beyond_o the_o fond_n give_v and_o the_o not_o get_v in_o due_a time_n that_o for_o which_o fond_n be_v assign_v have_v be_v the_o principal_a cause_n why_o the_o army_n be_v in_o so_o much_o arrear_n of_o their_o pay_n and_o the_o store_v both_o for_o the_o navy_n and_o the_o ordnance_n not_o supply_v as_o they_o ought_v to_o be_v now_o as_o i_o have_v neither_o spare_v my_o person_n nor_o my_o pain_n to_o do_v you_o all_o the_o good_a i_o can_v so_o i_o doubt_v not_o but_o if_o you_o will_v as_o cheerful_o do_v your_o part_n it_o be_v in_o your_o power_n to_o make_v both_o i_o and_o yourselves_o happy_a and_o the_o nation_n great_a and_o on_o the_o other_o hand_n it_o be_v too_o plain_a by_o what_o the_o french_a have_v let_v you_o see_v so_o late_o that_o if_o the_o present_a war_n be_v not_o prosecute_v with_o vigour_n no_o nation_n in_o the_o world_n be_v expose_v to_o great_a danger_n i_o hope_v therefore_o there_o will_v need_v no_o more_o upon_o that_o subject_a than_o to_o lay_v before_o you_o gentleman_n of_o the_o house_n of_o commons_o the_o state_n of_o what_o will_v be_v necessary_a for_o the_o support_n of_o the_o fleet_n and_o arm_n which_o can_v possible_o admit_v of_o be_v lessen_v in_o the_o year_n ensue_v and_o to_o recommend_v to_o your_o care_n the_o clear_v of_o my_o revenue_n so_o as_o to_o enable_n i_o to_o subsist_v and_o to_o maintain_v the_o charge_n of_o the_o civil_a list_n the_o revenue_n be_v so_o engage_v that_o it_o must_v be_v whole_o apply_v after_o the_o first_o of_o november_n next_o to_o pay_v off_o the_o debt_n already_o charge_v upon_o it_o and_o therefore_o a_o present_a consideration_n must_v be_v have_v of_o the_o arrear_n of_o the_o army_n which_o shall_v likewise_o be_v lay_v before_o you_o and_o for_o all_o which_o i_o must_v desire_v a_o sufficient_a and_o timely_a supply_n it_o be_v far_a necessary_a to_o inform_v you_o that_o the_o whole_a support_n of_o the_o confederacy_n abroad_o will_v absolute_o depend_v upon_o the_o speed_n and_o vigour_n of_o your_o proceed_n in_o this_o session_n and_o here_o i_o must_v take_v notice_n with_o great_a satisfaction_n of_o the_o readiness_n which_o my_o subject_n of_o all_o degree_n have_v show_v both_o in_o this_o city_n and_o in_o their_o several_a country_n by_o give_v their_o assistance_n so_o cheerful_o as_o they_o do_v in_o my_o absence_n while_o the_o french_a fleet_n be_v upon_o our_o coast_n and_o beside_o this_o so_o convince_a mark_n of_o the_o good_a inclination_n of_o my_o people_n i_o have_v find_v through_o all_o the_o country_n where_o i_o pass_v both_o at_o my_o go_v into_o ireland_n and_o in_o my_o return_n from_o thence_o such_o demonstration_n of_o their_o affection_n that_o i_o have_v not_o the_o least_o doubt_n but_o i_o shall_v find_v the_o same_o from_o their_o representative_n in_o parliament_n i_o can_v conclude_v without_o take_v notice_n also_o how_o much_o the_o honour_n of_o the_o nation_n have_v be_v expose_v by_o the_o ill_a conduct_n of_o my_o fleet_n in_o the_o last_o summer_n engagement_n against_o the_o french_a and_o i_o think_v myself_o so_o much_o concern_v to_o see_v it_o vindicated_n that_o i_o can_v rest_v satisfy_v till_o a_o example_n have_v be_v make_v of_o such_o as_o shall_v be_v find_v faulty_a upon_o their_o examination_n and_o trial_n which_o be_v not_o practicable_a while_o the_o whole_a fleet_n be_v abroad_o but_o be_v now_o put_v into_o the_o proper_a way_n of_o be_v do_v as_o soon_o as_o may_v be_v my_o lord_n and_o gentleman_n i_o look_v upon_o the_o future_a wellbeing_a of_o this_o kingdom_n to_o depend_v upon_o the_o result_n of_o your_o counsel_n and_o determination_n at_o this_o time_n and_o the_o benefit_n will_v be_v double_a by_o the_o speed_n of_o your_o resolution_n insomuch_o that_o i_o hope_v you_o will_v agree_v with_o i_o in_o this_o conclusion_n that_o whoever_o go_v about_o to_o obstruct_v or_o divert_v your_o application_n to_o these_o matter_n preferable_o to_o all_o other_o can_v neither_o be_v my_o friend_n nor_o the_o kingdom_n finis_fw-la
