of_o keep_v out_o the_o irish_a they_o do_v not_o only_o make_v the_o irish_a their_o tenant_n in_o those_o land_n and_o thrust_v out_o the_o english_a but_o also_o some_o of_o themselves_o become_v

be_v chastise_v and_o reform_v than_o the_o rude_a irish_a which_o be_v very_o wild_a at_o the_o first_o be_v now_o become_v more_o civil_a when_o as_o these_o from_o civility_n be_v grow_v to_o be_v wild_a and_o mere_a irish._n iren._n indeed_o as_o you_o say_v eudoxus_n these_o do_v need_v a_o sharp_a reformation_n than_o the_o irish_a for_o they_o be_v more_o stubborn_a and_o disobedient_a to_o law_n and_o government_n than_o the_o irish_a be_v eudox._n in_o truth_n irenaeus_n this_o be_v more_o than_o ever_o i_o hear_v that_o any_o english_a there_o shall_v be_v worse_o than_o the_o irish_a lord_n how_o quick_o do_v that_o country_n alter_v man_n nature_n it_o be_v not_o for_o nothing_o i_o perceive_v which_o i_o have_v hear_v that_o the_o council_n of_o england_n think_v it_o no_o good_a policy_n to_o have_v that_o realm_n reform_v or_o plant_v with_o english_a lest_o they_o shall_v grow_v so_o undutiful_a as_o the_o irish_a and_o become_v much_o more_o dangerous_a as_o appear_v by_o the_o ensample_n of_o the_o lacy_n in_o the_o time_n of_o edward_n the_o second_o which_o you_o speak_v of_o that_o shake_v off_o their_o allegiance_n to_o their_o natural_a prince_n and_o turn_v to_o edward_n le_fw-fr bruce_n to_o make_v he_o king_n of_o ireland_n iren._n no_o time_n have_v be_v without_o bad_a man_n but_o as_o for_o that_o purpose_n of_o the_o council_n of_o england_n which_o you_o speak_v of_o that_o they_o shall_v keep_v that_o realm_n from_o reformation_n i_o think_v they_o be_v most_o lewd_o abuse_v for_o their_o great_a carefulness_n and_o earnest_a endeavour_n do_v witness_v the_o contrary_n neither_o be_v it_o the_o nature_n of_o the_o country_n to_o alter_v man_n manner_n but_o the_o bad_a mind_n of_o the_o man_n who_o have_v be_v bring_v up_o at_o home_n under_o a_o straight_a rule_n of_o duty_n and_o obedience_n be_v always_o restrain_v by_o sharp_a penalty_n from_o lewd_a behaviour_n so_o soon_o as_o they_o come_v thither_o where_o they_o see_v law_n more_o slacke_o tend_v and_o the_o hard_a restraint_n which_o they_o be_v use_v unto_o now_o slack_v they_o grow_v more_o loose_a and_o careless_a of_o their_o duty_n and_o as_o it_o be_v the_o nature_n of_o all_o man_n to_o love_v liberty_n so_o they_o become_v flat_a libertine_n and_o fall_v to_o all_o licentiousness_n more_o bold_o dare_v to_o disobey_v the_o law_n through_o the_o presumption_n of_o favour_n and_o friendship_n than_o any_o irish_a dare_v eudox._n then_o if_o that_o be_v so_o i_o think_v your_o late_a advisement_n be_v very_o evil_a whereby_o you_o wish_v the_o irish_a to_o be_v sow_v and_o sprinkle_v with_o english_a and_o in_o all_o the_o irish_a country_n to_o have_v english_a plant_v among_o they_o for_o to_o bring_v they_o to_o english_a fashion_n since_o the_o english_a soon_o draw_v to_o the_o irish_a than_o the_o irish_a to_o the_o english_a for_o as_o you_o say_v before_o if_o they_o must_v run_v with_o the_o stream_n the_o great_a number_n will_v carry_v away_o the_o less_o therefore_o i_o think_v by_o this_o reason_n it_o shall_v be_v better_a to_o part_v the_o irish_a and_o english_a then_o to_o mingle_v they_o together_o iren._n not_o so_o eudoxus_n but_o where_o there_o be_v no_o good_a stay_n of_o government_n and_o strong_a ordinance_n to_o hold_v they_o there_o indeed_o the_o few_o will_v follow_v the_o more_o but_o where_o there_o be_v due_a order_n of_o discipline_n and_o good_a rule_n there_o the_o better_a shall_v go_v foremost_a and_o the_o worst_a shall_v follow_v and_o therefore_o now_o since_o ireland_n be_v full_a of_o her_o own_o nation_n that_o ought_v not_o to_o be_v root_v out_o and_o somewhat_o store_v with_o english_a already_o and_o more_o to_o be_v i_o think_v it_o best_o by_o a_o union_n of_o manner_n and_o conformity_n of_o mind_n to_o bring_v they_o to_o be_v one_o people_n and_o to_o put_v away_o the_o dislikefull_a conceit_n both_o of_o the_o one_o and_o the_o other_o which_o will_v be_v by_o no_o mean_n better_o then_o by_o this_o intermingle_v of_o they_o for_o neither_o all_o the_o irish_a may_v dwell_v together_o nor_o all_o the_o english_a but_o by_o translate_n of_o they_o and_o scatter_v they_o among_o the_o english_a not_o only_o to_o bring_v they_o by_o daily_a conversation_n unto_o better_a like_n of_o each_o other_o but_o also_o to_o make_v both_o of_o they_o less_o able_a to_o hurt_v and_o therefore_o when_o i_o come_v to_o the_o tthe_n of_o they_o i_o will_v tithe_v they_o one_o with_o another_o &_o for_o the_o most_o part_n will_v
