some_o jesuit_n that_o have_v foist_v in_o this_o project_n among_o they_o in_o the_o bay_n and_o we_o here_o as_o the_o most_o probale_n way_n to_o ruin_v we_o at_o this_o time_n for_o it_o be_v the_o old_a trade_n of_o that_o diabolical_a sort_n of_o man_n by_o their_o plausible_a crafty_a counsel_n to_o make_v protestant_n destroy_v themselves_o by_o stir_v up_o and_o soment_v division_n among_o they_o and_o promote_a any_o thing_n which_o tend_v thereto_o the_o which_o how_o natural_o &_o necessary_o they_o will_v slow_v from_o this_o proceed_n be_v easy_a to_o show_v but_o it_o be_v better_a to_o be_v silent_a than_o by_o speak_v to_o show_v man_n the_o way_n which_o they_o be_v too_o ready_a to_o run_v into_o nineth_o more_o may_v be_v say_v but_o the_o last_o consideration_n that_o i_o shall_v offer_v and_o which_o i_o think_v may_v satisfy_v any_o reasonable_a man_n be_v that_o it_o be_v know_v the_o country_n be_v in_o daily_a expectation_n of_o order_n from_o the_o crown_n of_o england_n for_o the_o settle_n and_o regulate_v of_o the_o government_n those_o order_n will_v either_o contradict_v or_o overthrow_v your_o election_n or_o else_o countenance_n and_o encourage_v it_o if_o they_o overthrow_v it_o to_o what_o end_n be_v it_o to_o hold_v a_o court_n if_o we_o can_v hold_v a_o court_n to_o make_v election_n to_o change_v and_o turn_v thing_n up-side_n

hazard_n of_o displeasure_n from_o the_o supreme_a power_n abroad_o and_o of_o make_v division_n and_o mischief_n at_o home_n and_o all_o for_o a_o imaginary_a government_n which_o may_v possible_o last_v for_o a_o week_n or_o a_o month_n sapiens_fw-la incipit_fw-la a_o fine_a if_o the_o order_n that_o shall_v come_v do_v countenance_n and_o encourage_v to_o a_o election_n they_o will_v be_v such_o as_o will_v enable_v we_o to_o it_o and_o so_o we_o shall_v preserve_v a_o good_a aspect_n abroad_o and_o unity_n and_o peace_n at_o home_n what_o need_v then_o of_o such_o haste_n these_o thing_n can_v be_v speak_v against_o and_o the_o town-clerke_n of_o ephesus_n can_v say_v that_o these_o thing_n be_v so_o you_o ought_v to_o be_v quiet_a &_o do_v nothing_o rash_o but_o some_o say_v we_o shall_v loose_v our_o day_n if_o we_o do_v not_o proceed_v now_o i_o answer_v there_o be_v nothing_o in_o that_o for_o if_o you_o have_v sufficient_a warrant_n from_o the_o crown_n of_o england_n to_o enable_v you_o to_o the_o thing_n you_o will_v be_v enable_v as_o to_o a_o day_n and_o person_n and_o what_o else_o be_v needful_a which_o now_o you_o be_v not_o as_o before_o be_v say_v but_o say_v other_o if_o we_o have_v a_o election_n before_o these_o order_n come_v we_o shall_v be_v in_o a_o capacity_n to_o capitulate_v and_o so_o obtain_v the_o better_a term_n etc._n etc._n i_o answer_v this_o be_v a_o great_a mistake_n it_o will_v be_v a_o mighty_a disadvantage_n for_o it_o will_v be_v a_o wonderful_a thing_n if_o you_o be_v not_o look_v upon_o and_o deal_v with_o as_o criminall_n again_o who_o do_v you_o mean_v to_o capitulate_v with_o sure_o it_o will_v be_v good_a manner_n for_o we_o to_o ask_v and_o not_o to_o command_v to_o follow_v our_o leader_n and_o not_o to_o go_v before_o they_o but_o some_o think_v these_o be_v small_a matter_n that_o will_v be_v overlooked_a and_o easy_o pardon_v we_o need_v not_o stand_v upon_o such_o nicety_n but_o i_o answer_v how_o small_a they_o be_v will_v be_v best_a see_v afterward_o and_o it_o be_v better_a not_o to_o need_v a_o pardon_n than_o to_o presume_v upon_o get_v one_o from_o all_o these_o consideration_n i_o conclude_v that_o our_o strength_n be_v to_o sit_v still_o and_o therefore_o do_v advise_v that_o instead_o of_o move_v towards_o a_o election_n the_o judge_n and_o justice_n in_o the_o several_a county_n consider_v their_o commission_n which_o they_o have_v receive_v and_o the_o oath_n which_o they_o have_v take_v for_o the_o faithful_a execution_n of_o they_o and_o remember_v that_o the_o
