to_o the_o nation_n in_o general_a to_o particularize_v those_o people_n never_o think_v of_o lessen_v but_o increase_a the_o number_n &_o benefit_n of_o office_n so_o that_o it_o often_o have_v

ought_v not_o to_o receive_v or_o share_v among_o themselves_o any_o of_o the_o public_a treasure_n be_v of_o absolute_a necessity_n have_v the_o long_a parliament_n be_v restrain_v from_o it_o as_o

have_v secure_v the_o nation_n and_o themselves_o and_o engage_v the_o people_n in_o their_o affection_n to_o they_o for_o the_o good_a they_o have_v receive_v by_o they_o notwithstanding_o all_o this_o we_o know_v it_o be_v and_o will_v be_v the_o great_a cry_n of_o the_o implacable_a royal_a faction_n both_o old_a and_o new_a for_o a_o free_a parliament_n choose_v as_o former_o without_o
