popish_a offender_n to_o justice_n say_v that_o they_o be_v sure_a that_o when_o the_o king_n know_v the_o occasion_n of_o their_o rise_n he_o will_v present_o give_v up_o all_o offender_n and_o come_v in_o to_o they_o that_o it_o shall_v begin_v in_o november_n in_o london_n bristol_n exeter_n taunton_n chester_n york_n newcastle_n and_o that_o we_o shall_v hear_v more_o of_o it_o in_o a_o month_n time_n therefore_o desire_v we_o may_v consider_v how_o it_o may_v be_v manage_v in_o bristol_n which_o we_o do_v and_o conclude_v that_o bristol_n with_o about_o 350_o man_n may_v be_v easy_o secure_v by_o a_o surprise_n without_o the_o bloodshed_n of_o one_o man_n about_o a_o month_n after_o that_o come_v the_o person_n he_o mention_v we_o shall_v hear_v more_o by_o but_o he_o can_v declare_v no_o more_o than_o the_o former_a do_v only_o that_o the_o design_n go_v on_o and_o there_o will_v be_v timely_a notice_n give_v to_o all_o part_n but_o we_o hear_v of_o nothing_o but_o disappointment_n and_o delay_n put_v it_o off_o from_o time_n to_o time_n in_o april_n i_o hear_v of_o another_o design_n against_o the_o king_n and_o duke_n of_o york_n as_o they_o be_v to_o come_v from_o newmarket_n some_o time_n in_o march_n but_o when_o i_o inquire_v into_o that_o find_v it_o be_v carry_v on_o by_o three_o or_o four_o and_o never_o can_v hear_v the_o name_n of_o above_o five_o that_o be_v for_o it_o when_o i_o hear_v it_o i_o declare_v my_o abhorrence_n of_o any_o such_o thing_n and_o that_o i_o be_v confident_a none_o in_o our_o part_n will_v be_v for_o such_o a_o base_a action_n after_o that_o inquire_v far_o into_o it_o and_o can_v find_v that_o although_o it_o be_v intend_v to_o be_v do_v six_o week_n before_o that_o they_o have_v only_o a_o parcel_n of_o arm_n ready_a and_o that_o they_o have_v neither_o man_n nor_o horse_n but_o one_o say_v if_o they_o can_v have_v raise_v 6_o or_o 800_o li._n to_o have_v buy_v horse_n and_o also_o something_o to_o encourage_v man_n they_o shall_v have_v find_v man_n enough_o so_o that_o i_o look_v upon_o that_o only_a to_o be_v the_o design_n of_o five_o or_o six_o person_n and_o no_o way_n likely_a to_o be_v act_v but_o the_o general_n design_n for_o the_o insurrection_n be_v carry_v on_o by_o other_o who_o though_o they_o have_v make_v a_o great_a stir_n in_o the_o nation_n try_v the_o inclination_n of_o people_n and_o have_v treat_v with_o the_o scot_n and_o irish_a as_o i_o hear_v who_o be_v to_o be_v ready_a at_o the_o same_o time_n yet_o be_v never_o come_v to_o any_o resolution_n as_o to_o any_o

enough_o to_o satisfy_v all_o people_n that_o there_o be_v a_o plot_n i_o mention_v no_o name_n here_o have_v give_v his_o majesty_n a_o more_o large_a account_n of_o what_o i_o know_v of_o it_o mention_v the_o name_n of_o all_o that_o i_o know_v concern_v the_o argument_n before_o mention_v with_o many_o other_o to_o the_o same_o effect_n not_o only_o soon_o prevail_v with_o i_o but_o make_v i_o indeed_o think_v it_o my_o duty_n to_o do_v what_o i_o can_v for_o my_o king_n and_o country_n safety_n be_v then_o full_o persuade_v that_o not_o only_a popery_n but_o arbitrary_a government_n
