a_o answer_n to_o the_o second_o letter_n from_z legorn_a be_v a_o account_n of_o some_o further_a discovery_n of_o a_o continue_a plot_n aboard_o the_o ship_n vanherring_n sir_n you_o dated_n decemb._n 10._o 1679._o come_v safe_a to_o my_o hand_n i_o have_v serious_o consider_v the_o account_n you_o give_v of_o the_o captain_n and_o the_o whole_a ship_n company_n and_o do_v believe_v it_o a_o true_a and_o ingenuous_a account_n of_o matter_n relate_v to_o all_o party_n concern_v i_o have_v discourse_v with_o many_o about_o the_o relation_n and_o find_v they_o exceed_o please_v that_o there_o be_v such_o a_o discovery_n but_o be_v likewise_o great_o grieve_v and_o perplex_v to_o understand_v the_o danger_n that_o the_o christian_a captain_n and_o his_o ship_n company_n be_v in_o by_o reason_n of_o the_o mahometan_a lieutenant_n and_o his_o devilish_a crew_n in_o confederacy_n with_o the_o wicked_a algerines_n sir_n the_o more_o your_o letter_n be_v read_v the_o better_a it_o be_v understand_v so_o that_o now_o the_o generality_n of_o people_n can_v read_v it_o roundly_o quite_o through_o without_o stumble_v at_o a_o word_n in_o it_o i_o do_v assure_v you_o it_o have_v fill_v the_o city_n with_o general_a fear_n and_o consternation_n of_o mind_n to_o admiration_n and_o that_o which_o have_v great_o further_v the_o knowledge_n of_o this_o matter_n be_v that_o somebody_o have_v get_v a_o copy_n of_o your_o letter_n and_o print_v it_o but_o i_o believe_v this_o will_v not_o issue_v in_o your_o captain_n nor_o your_o disadvantage_n i_o fi●d_v no_o other_o use_n make_v of_o it_o by_o the_o generality_n of_o christian_n but_o to_o be_v concern_v about_o the_o welfare_n of_o your_o captain_n ship_n good_n and_o all_o the_o christian_a sailor_n on_o board_n and_o now_o sir_n i_o will_v give_v you_o a_o particular_a answer_n to_o your_o letter_n i._o as_o to_o the_o captain_n here_o be_v multitude_n of_o good_a christian_n in_o these_o part_n be_v persuade_v they_o know_v he_o well_o and_o speak_v well_o of_o he_o as_o a_o gentlemam_fw-la noble_o descend_v from_o a_o father_n of_o great_a renown_n great_o belove_v in_o his_o own_o and_o other_o nation_n and_o that_o the_o captain_n as_o to_o his_o nature_n be_v of_o a_o sweet_a temper_n and_o disposition_n but_o that_o he_o be_v apt_a to_o be_v mislead_v by_o some_o of_o those_o that_o he_o have_v advance_v who_o seek_v more_o their_o own_o private_a advantage_n than_o his_o public_a welfare_n which_o some_o conclude_v be_v the_o great_a failure_n of_o his_o noble_a father_n and_o therefore_o it_o be_v hearty_o desire_v that_o the_o captain_n will_v be_v please_v timely_a to_o consider_v it_o for_o his_o own_o present_a and_o future_a good_a sir_n i_o do_v assure_v you_o that_o your_o captain_n be_v great_o belove_v and_o high_o honour_v in_o our_o country_n because_o he_o always_o profess_v himself_o a_o christian_n and_o it_o be_v general_o hope_v he_o will_v continue_v so_o to_o the_o end_n ii_o as_o to_o the_o conspiracy_n of_o the_o mahometan_n to_o take_v away_o the_o captain_n life_n and_o enslave_v all_o the_o christians-sailor_n and_o make_v prize_n of_o the_o ship_n and_o good_n sir_n this_o be_v heavy_a and_o heart-breaking_a tiding_n to_o all_o those_o that_o love_v the_o captain_n and_o the_o sailor_n but_o there_o be_v a_o great_a deal_n of_o joy_n and_o satisfaction_n in_o the_o timely_a discovery_n of_o this_o hellish_a design_n by_o those_o that_o be_v privy_a to_o it_o as_o for_o the_o lieutenant_n who_o you_o say_v be_v a_o mahometan_a he_o be_v well_o know_v in_o our_o country_n and_o many_o do_v say_v that_o he_o be_v near_o relate_v to_o the_o captain_n which_o be_v the_o cause_n thing_n go_v on_o no_o better_a nevertheless_o he_o be_v far_o short_a of_o be_v belove_v and_o honour_v as_o the_o captain_n be_v because_o he_o be_v a_o mahometan_a and_o live_v in_o hope_n of_o be_v captain_n hereafter_o which_o be_v not_o at_o all_o please_a to_o the_o christian_n here_o because_o then_o in_o all_o probability_n the_o ship_n and_o good_n will_v be_v make_v a_o prize_n and_o the_o christian-sailor_n make_v slave_n or_o slay_v if_o they_o change_v not_o their_o relgion_n which_o god_n prevent_v iii_o as_o to_o your_o honest_a boatswain_n that_o be_v murder_v for_o take_v the_o confession_n and_o discovery_n of_o the_o conspiracy_n the_o first_o tiding_n of_o it_o amaze_v all_o true_a christian_n because_o he_o be_v a_o good_a christian_a himself_o and_o a_o great_a lover_n of_o his_o captain_n he_o be_v well_o know_v in_o this_o city_n to_o be_v a_o gentleman_n of_o faithfulness_n courage_n and_o of_o a_o sweet_a disposition_n i_o do_v assure_v you_o here_o have_v be_v very_o great_a mourning_n for_o he_o among_o the_o christian_n and_o his_o name_n will_v be_v have_v in_o everlasting_a esteem_n he_o be_v make_v a_o sacrifice_n for_o all_o the_o honest_a sailor_n aboard_o the_o ship_n the_o mahometan_n be_v ready_a if_o opportunity_n present_v to_o act_v the_o second_o part_n to_o the_o same_o tune_n upon_o other_o worthy_a sailor_n aboard_o but_o for_o our_o comfort_n we_o hear_v from_o other_o hand_n that_o the_o captain_n have_v now_o a_o boatswain_n no_o way_n inferior_a in_o faithfulness_n diligence_n and_o industry_n to_o the_o former_a and_o that_o he_o be_v a_o gentleman_n of_o great_a courage_n and_o unspotted_a integrity_n and_o very_o faithful_a to_o the_o captain_n and_o to_o all_o the_o ship_n company_n that_o be_v christian_n constant_o seize_v guilty_a

that_o the_o first_o discoverer_n have_v a_o fair-hearing_a before_o they_o though_o he_o have_v be_v affront_v by_o some_o principal_a officer_n before_o and_o the_o conspiracy_n be_v plain_o discover_v and_o that_o there_o be_v a_o confederacy_n between_o the_o mahometan_n and_o the_o algerines_n the_o purser_n and_o five_o other_o mahometan_a rogue_n that_o have_v some_o command_n in_o

that_o so_o many_o of_o the_o conspirator_n especial_o that_o the_o purser_n be_v find_v out_o and_o secure_v who_o have_v so_o gross_o abuse_v and_o cheat_v the_o captain_n and_o the_o whole_a ship_n

because_o he_o cunning_o hide_v himself_o in_o or_o about_o the_o great_a cabin_n and_o at_o last_o presume_v upon_o the_o captain_n clemency_n and_o understanding_n that_o the_o bill_n be_v like_a to_o be_v find_v against_o he_o and_o what_o good_n he_o have_v aboard_o the_o ship_n which_o be_v very_o great_a like_o to_o be_v confiscate_v he_o impudent_o come_v out_o of_o his_o hole_n and_o
