endure_v wicked_a prince_n as_o we_o do_v inundation_n or_o scarcity_n which_o be_v of_o god_n send_v these_o you_o say_v p._n 20._o be_v full_a and_o pregnant_a proof_n and_o i_o think_v ad_fw-la

give_v it_o to_o julian_n only_o by_o the_o way_n i_o do_v not_o think_v that_o your_o 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d nor_o 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d neither_o will_n in_o the_o sense_n of_o the_o

in_o this_o respect_n the_o descent_n of_o the_o crown_n of_o england_n be_v much_o more_o firm_a and_o establish_v than_o that_o of_o the_o empire_n have_v be_v continue_v through_o more_o

then_o he_o that_o be_v in_o possession_n may_v dispose_v of_o the_o inheritance_n to_o one_o or_o more_o and_o perhaps_o this_o be_v the_o intent_n of_o the_o bill_n for_o exclusion_n to_o make_v
