can_v not_o convenient_o engage_v in_o any_o such_o parish-work_n but_o leave_v that_o to_o the_o inhabitant_n of_o the_o several_a parish_n think_v something_o of_o a_o more_o universal_a nature_n

head_n at_o this_o observation_n but_o they_o must_v know_v that_o it_o be_v not_o wisdom_n but_o often_o folly_n and_o stupidity_n not_o to_o take_v notice_n of_o such_o minute_n thing_n as_o the_o vulgar_a even_o of_o learned_a and_o repute_v wise_a man_n little_a regard_n and_o though_o from_o such_o circumstance_n consider_v alone_o it_o may_v not_o be_v fit_a to_o be_v very_o positive_a in_o

guidance_n of_o his_o action_n as_o the_o wisdom_n of_o the_o world_n be_v not_o capable_a of_o and_o the_o truth_n be_v divine_a indication_n be_v for_o the_o most_o part_n rather_o by_o such_o

though_o even_o such_o be_v often_o overlook_v by_o many_o who_o think_v themselves_o wise_a and_o too_o often_o by_o such_o as_o be_v in_o some_o degree_n partaker_n of_o the_o true_a celestial_a wisdom_n because_o they_o regard_v not_o the_o work_v of_o the_o lord_n nor_o the_o operation_n of_o his_o hand_n he_o will_v destroy_v they_o and_o not_o build_v they_o up_o but_o who_o be_v wise_a will_v ponder_v these_o thing_n and_o they_o shall_v understand_v the_o love_a kindness_n of_o the_o lord_n and_o therefore_o pass_v by_o former_a occurrence_n upon_o this_o occasion_n i_o think_v fit_a to_o add_v here_o a_o brief_a observation_n upon_o some_o of_o this_o year_n in_o the_o war_n in_o ireland_n his_o majesty_n be_v concern_v in_o interest_n more_o than_o in_o honour_n because_o he_o be_v not_o engage_v in_o person_n in_o it_o and_o it_o be_v not_o manage_v under_o his_o immediate_a conduct_n but_o in_o the_o common_a cause_n of_o the_o confederate_n he_o be_v more_o concern_v in_o honour_n be_v personal_o engage_v in_o it_o a_o noble_a confederacy_n it_o be_v indeed_o and_o a_o just_a and_o honourable_a cause_n and_o it_o have_v be_v bless_v with_o no_o mean_a
