have_v surprise_v he_o and_o hold_v he_o under_o restraint_n and_o have_v force_v the_o parliament_n and_o if_o you_o will_v have_v my_o opinion_n it_o be_v that_o if_o the_o army_n proceed_v not_o speedy_o to_o unite_v the_o king_n and_o the_o city_n and_o the_o parliament_n be_v purge_v or_o renew_v in_o such_o sort_n as_o the_o scot_n may_v not_o be_v invite_v in_o and_o then_o the_o county_n may_v united_o join_v against_o the_o scot_n if_o they_o shall_v invade_v this_o kingdom_n the_o scot_n will_v prevail_v or_o at_o least_o a_o more_o bloody_a war_n will_v be_v revive_v then_o that_o which_o we_o hope_v have_v be_v end_v so_o that_o lay_v aside_o whatsoever_o may_v be_v say_v against_o the_o army_n for_o the_o seize_v of_o the_o king_n person_n and_o declare_v against_o the_o

against_o the_o king_n stiffness_n in_o not_o yield_v to_o those_o thing_n which_o he_o judge_v against_o his_o honour_n and_o conscience_n if_o the_o army_n in_o who_o the_o mean_n be_v only_o now_o to_o do_v it_o shall_v not_o present_o establish_v the_o king_n moderate_a the_o house_n cause_v the_o city_n entire_o to_o join_v the_o unite_a power_n of_o the_o kingdom_n of_o scotland_n with_o the_o adherent_a party_n of_o their_o covenanter_n will_v bring_v in_o speedy_o more_o misery_n upon_o the_o kingdom_n of_o england_n than_o what_o it_o have_v hitherto_o suffer_v as_o for_o the_o

of_o the_o present_a affair_n which_o be_v that_o if_o the_o army_n proceed_v prudent_o moderate_o and_o speedy_o in_o the_o settlement_n of_o they_o they_o will_v procure_v a_o great_a deliverance_n

high_a security_n they_o can_v give_v will_v by_o they_o be_v revocable_a every_o morning_n and_o they_o will_v judge_v all_o promise_n or_o policy_n that_o have_v be_v use_v for_o the_o disperse_v of_o a_o mutinous_a army_n very_o justifiable_a for_o they_o to_o do_v and_o punish_v afterward_o so_o that_o the_o safety_n of_o the_o army_n can_v consist_v in_o nothing_o but_o in_o the_o
