at_o those_o who_o seem_v to_o doubt_v the_o success_n of_o this_o parliament_n or_o the_o misunderstand_n betwixt_o the_o king_n and_o the_o people_n shall_v last_v any_o long_o now_o we_o be_v so_o

let_v we_o first_o do_v and_o the_o more_o speedy_o that_o we_o may_v come_v to_o the_o matter_n of_o supply_n let_v we_o give_v new_a force_n to_o the_o many_o law_n which_o have_v be_v heretofore_o make_v for_o the_o maintain_n of_o right_n and_o privilege_n and_o to_o restore_v this_o nation_n to_o the_o fundamental_a and_o vital_a liberty_n the_o propriety_n of_o our_o good_n and_o freedom_n of_o our_o person_n no_o way_n doubt_v but_o that_o we_o shall_v find_v his_o majesty_n as_o gracious_a and_o ready_a as_o any_o of_o his_o royal_a progenitor_n have_v be_v to_o grant_v our_o just_a

that_o have_v breed_v this_o misunderstand_n betwixt_o the_o king_n and_o the_o people_n how_o be_v it_o that_o have_v so_o good_a a_o king_n we_o have_v so_o much_o to_o complain_v of_o why_o mr._n
