the_o hazard_n of_o lose_v both_o the_o favour_n of_o the_o court_n and_o their_o employment_n and_o since_o the_o english_a nation_n have_v ever_o testify_v a_o most_o particular_a affection_n and_o

of_o the_o total_a subversion_n of_o the_o government_n and_o it_o be_v plain_a that_o there_o can_v be_v no_o redress_n nor_o remedy_n offer_v but_o in_o parliament_n by_o a_o declaration_n of_o
