of_o it_o so_o that_o i_o need_v not_o i_o think_v say_v more_o for_o the_o king_n i_o do_v sincere_o pray_v for_o he_o and_o wish_v well_o to_o he_o and_o to_o the_o nation_n that_o they_o may_v be_v happy_a in_o one_o another_o that_o he_o may_v be_v indeed_o the_o defender_n of_o the_o faith_n that_o the_o protestant_a religion_n and_o the_o peace_n and_o safety_n of_o the_o kingdom_n may_v be_v

prosecution_n of_o the_o popish_a plot_n i_o take_v god_n to_o witness_v that_o i_o proceed_v in_o it_o in_o the_o sincerity_n of_o my_o heart_n be_v then_o real_o convince_v as_o i_o be_o still_o that_o there_o be_v a_o conspiracy_n against_o the_o king_n the_o nation_n and_o the_o protestant_a religion_n and_o i_o likewise_o profess_v that_o i_o never_o know_v any_o thing_n either_o direct_o or_o indirect_o of_o any_o practice_n with_o the_o witness_n which_o i_o look_v upon_o as_o so_o horrid_a a_o thing_n that_o i_o can_v never_o have_v endure_v it_o for_o i_o thank_v god_n falshood_n and_o cruelty_n be_v never_o in_o my_o nature_n but_o always_o the_o far_a from_o it_o imaginable_a i_o do_v believe_v and_o do_v still_o that_o popery_n be_v break_v in_o upon_o the_o nation_n and_o that_o those_o who_o advance_v it_o will_v stop_v at_o nothing_o to_o carry_v on_o their_o design_n i_o be_o hearty_o sorry_a that_o so_o many_o protestant_n give_v their_o help_a hand_n to_o it_o but_o i_o hope_v god_n will_v preserve_v the_o protestant_a religion_n and_o this_o nation_n though_o i_o be_o afraid_a it_o will_v fall_v under_o very_o great_a trial_n and_o very_o sharp_a suffering_n and_o indeed_o the_o impiety_n and_o profaneness_n that_o abound_v and_o appear_v so_o scandalous_o barefaced_a everywhere_o give_v to_o just_a reason_n to_o fear_v the_o worst_a thing_n which_o can_v befall_v a_o people_n i_o pray_v god_n prevent_v it_o and_o give_v those_o who_o have_v show_v concern_v for_o the_o public_a good_a and_o who_o have_v appear_v hearty_a for_o the_o

which_o god_n know_v have_v often_o give_v i_o many_o sad_a thought_n and_o i_o hope_v such_o of_o my_o friend_n as_o may_v think_v they_o be_v touch_v by_o this_o will_v not_o take_v what_o i_o say_v

at_o it_o i_o know_v for_o my_o sin_n i_o have_v deserve_v much_o worse_o at_o the_o hand_n of_o god_n so_o that_o i_o cheerful_o submit_v to_o so_o small_a a_o punishment_n as_o the_o be_v take_v off_o a_o few_o year_n soon_o and_o the_o be_v make_v a_o spectacle_n to_o the_o world._n i_o do_v free_o forgive_v all_o the_o world_n particular_o those_o concern_v in_o take_v away_o my_o life_n and_o i_o desire_v and_o conjure_v my_o friend_n to_o think_v of_o no_o revenge_n but_o to_o submit_v to_o the_o holy_a will_n of_o god_n into_o who_o hand_n i_o resign_v myself_o entire_o but_o to_o look_v back_o a_o little_a i_o can_v but_o give_v some_o touch_n about_o the_o bill_n of_o exclusion_n and_o show_v the_o reason_n of_o my_o appear_v in_o that_o business_n which_o in_o short_a be_v this_o that_o i_o think_v the_o nation_n be_v in_o such_o danger_n of_o popery_n and_o that_o the_o expectation_n of_o a_o popish_a successor_n as_o i_o have_v say_v in_o parliament_n put_v the_o king_n life_n likewise_o in_o such_o danger_n that_o i_o see_v no_o way_n so_o effectual_a to_o secure_v both_o as_o such_o a_o bill_n as_o to_o the_o limitation_n which_o be_v propose_v if_o they_o be_v sincere_o offer_v and_o have_v pass_v into_o a_o law_n the_o duke_n then_o will_v have_v be_v exclude_v from_o the_o power_n of_o a_o king_n and_o the_o government_n quite_o alter_v and_o little_o more_o than_o the_o name_n of_o a_o king_n leave_v so_o i_o can_v not_o see_v either_o sin_n or_o fault_n in_o the_o one_o when_o all_o people_n be_v willing_a to_o admit_v of_o the_o other_o but_o think_v it_o better_a to_o have_v a_o king_n with_o his_o prerogative_n and_o the_o nation_n easy_a and_o safe_a under_o he_o than_o a_o king_n without_o it_o which_o must_v have_v breed_v perpetual_a jealousy_n and_o a_o continual_a struggle_v all_o this_o i_o say_v only_o to_o justify_v myself_o and_o not_o to_o inflame_v other_o though_o i_o can_v but_o think_v my_o earnestness_n in_o that_o matter_n have_v have_v no_o small_a influence_n in_o my_o present_a suffering_n but_o i_o have_v now_o do_v with_o this_o world_n and_o be_o go_v to_o a_o kingdom_n which_o can_v be_v
