of_o a_o irregular_a affection_n unto_o some_o stranger_n who_o have_v insinuate_v himself_o into_o his_o favour_n by_o sordid_a slattery_n and_o false_a suggestion_n do_v not_o only_o carry_v himself_o towards_o his_o son_n in_o a_o strange_a unfatherly_a and_o unnatural_a way_n of_o rigour_n and_o use_v he_o more_o like_o a_o slave_n than_o a_o child_n but_o also_o even_o open_o and_o

at_o the_o father_n death_n to_o be_v disturb_v in_o his_o ill-gotten_a and_o unjust_a possession_n now_o here_o i_o will_v fain_o know_v why_o upon_o the_o doctor_n ground_n the_o son_n

he_o make_v that_o oath_n to_o he_o and_o why_o he_o may_v not_o accept_v of_o the_o tender_a protection_n and_o assistance_n of_o some_o other_o near_o relation_n or_o any_o one_o indeed_o who_o have_v so_o great_a a_o kindness_n as_o to_o afford_v it_o he_o and_o be_v able_a probable_o to_o support_v he_o against_o such_o a_o outrageous_a injury_n both_v as_o to_o the_o safety_n of_o his_o

his_o generous_a protector_n and_o guardian_n the_o utmost_a assurance_n that_o he_o can_v require_v even_o that_o of_o a_o oath_n like_o that_o which_o he_o give_v his_o father_n himself_o concern_v the_o performance_n of_o all_o that_o duty_n while_o he_o thus_o continue_v under_o his_o roof_n and_o enjoy_v the_o benefit_n of_o his_o guardianship_n which_o have_v continue_v due_a to_o his_o father_n if_o he_o have_v continue_v a_o father_n to_o he_o to_o his_o die_a day_n the_o case_n if_o i_o be_o not_o much_o mistake_v seem_v thus_o far_o very_o fair_a on_o the_o son_n side_n

have_v so_o disoblige_v he_o by_o way_n of_o retaliation_n and_o be_v dispositive_o ready_a to_o return_v to_o all_o that_o duty_n again_o which_o he_o former_o pay_v he_o in_o case_n he_o change_v his_o mind_n towards_o he_o restore_v he_o to_o his_o former_a circumstance_n and_o give_v he_o that_o rational_a security_n that_o in_o such_o a_o case_n be_v requisite_a to_o assure_v he_o against_o any_o future_a relapse_n into_o the_o like_a unnatural_a design_n and_o attempt_n against_o he_o let_v now_o this_o case_n be_v serious_o consider_v by_o those_o who_o be_v most_o dissatisfy_v
