this_o appeal_n as_o we_o shall_v drive_v it_o on_o but_o to_o the_o speedy_a obtain_n of_o a_o more_o orderly_o and_o equal_a judicature_n of_o man_n in_o a_o just_a representive_a according_a to_o

upon_o such_o foundation_n as_o have_v be_v propound_v by_o we_o and_o other_o for_o that_o purpose_n and_o will_v for_o the_o speedy_a and_o sure_a prosecution_n of_o these_o thing_n exclude_v from_o

faithfulness_n by_o withdraw_v from_o those_o that_o persist_v in_o the_o guilt_n thereof_o and_o will_v apply_v themselves_o to_o such_o a_o posture_n whereby_o they_o may_v speedy_o and_o effectual_o prosecute_v those_o necessary_a and_o public_a end_n without_o such_o interruption_n diversion_n or_o depravation_n of_o their_o counsel_n from_o the_o rest_n to_o their_o endless_a
