motion_n and_o design_n it_o be_v humble_o tender_v to_o his_o majesty_n consideration_n that_o many_o of_o these_o man_n who_o must_v be_v common_a soldier_n be_v either_o gentleman_n of_o good_a estate_n or_o the_o son_n of_o such_o and_o therefore_o fit_a if_o it_o comport_v with_o his_o majesty_n affair_n for_o horse_n or_o dragoon_n service_n than_o for_o foot_n of_o which_o former_a there_o seem_v at_o present_a the_o great_a need_n in_o that_o kingdom_n nevertheless_o such_o be_v their_o inclination_n to_o that_o service_n that_o they_o will_v rather_o undertake_v the_o mean_a employment_n than_o continue_v not_o only_o idle_a and_o useless_a but_o burdensome_a to_o this_o kingdom_n if_o his_o majesty_n shall_v think_v fit_a to_o employ_v they_o as_o horse_n or_o dragoon_n they_o will_v accept_v the_o least_o sum_n for_o mount_v money_n that_o hitherto_o have_v be_v give_v or_o even_o abate_v of_o that_o if_o his_o majesty_n think_v fit_a if_o this_o be_v not_o think_v proper_a they_o be_v ready_a to_o embrace_v the_o foot-service_n on_o the_o follow_a term_n i._o that_o the_o commission-officer_n be_v person_n of_o that_o country_n know_v to_o the_o man_n who_o they_o be_v to_o command_v and_o who_o may_v have_v a_o influence_n on_o the_o country_n where_o they_o go_v m_o such_o officer_n to_o give_v sufficient_a proof_n or_o security_n of_o their_o fidelity_n to_o his_o majesty_n and_o to_o be_v answerabe_n for_o the_o man_n by_o they_o enlist_v ii_o that_o they_o be_v furnish_v by_o his_o majesty_n with_o proper_a and_o serviceable_a arm_n at_o his_o majesty_n charge_n iii_o that_o they_o may_v receive_v his_o majesty_n usual_a pay_n from_o the_o time_n they_o be_v enlist_v till_o they_o shall_v land_n in_o ireland_n and_o from_o thenceforth_o half_a pay_n in_o money_n and_o they_o be_v willing_a to_o accept_v the_o other_o half_a in_o debenture_n to_o be_v satisfy_v in_o the_o first_o place_n preferable_a to_o all_o other_o charge_n or_o pretence_n whatsoever_o out_o of_o the_o forfeit_a land_n in_o the_o county_n of_o cork_n or_o if_o the_o forfeit_a land_n shall_v fall_v short_a there_o either_o in_o the_o county_n of_o limerick_n or_o tipperary_n according_a to_o the_o rate_n of_o the_o late_a act_n or_o act_n for_o adventurer_n i_o think_v i_o need_v not_o put_v the_o reader_n in_o mind_n that_o these_o be_v proposal_n only_o and_o therefore_o if_o any_o thing_n against_o which_o there_o be_v a_o reasonable_a objection_n be_v mention_v in_o they_o that_o may_v easy_o be_v correct_v or_o alter_v as_o his_o majesty_n shall_v think_v fit_a but_o these_o be_v the_o only_a one_o of_o the_o kind_n that_o ever_o i_o hear_v of_o and_o seem_v to_o obviate_v the_o great_a objection_n viz._n want_v of_o present_a money_n by_o maintain_v double_a the_o number_n of_o force_n at_o single_a pay_n not_o to_o mention_v the_o pledge_n which_o the_o reward_n of_o the_o soldier_n depend_v on_o the_o success_n of_o their_o arm_n give_v of_o their_o hearty_a service_n i_o hope_v if_o reject_v they_o may_v have_v meet_v with_o a_o better_a usage_n than_o sir_n r._n have_v give_v they_o but_o whatever_o the_o fate_n of_o the_o proposal_n may_v be_v i_o suppose_v the_o foregoing_a account_n will_v full_o clear_v i_o of_o the_o insolence_n i_o be_o charge_v with_o of_o provide_v myself_o soldier_n before_o the_o king_n pleasure_n be_v know_v and_o set_v the_o heel_n above_o the_o head_n a_o insolence_n indeed_o and_o such_o a_o one_o as_o i_o must_v have_v own_a sir_n r._n a_o very_a modest_a man_n for_o give_v it_o no_o worse_o a_o name_n if_o it_o have_v be_v true_a and_o i_o can_v believe_v that_o it_o will_v be_v look_v upon_o to_o be_v unreasonable_a that_o the_o debenture_n of_o those_o who_o run_v the_o risque_n of_o take_v half_a their_o pay_n in_o conquer_a land_n shall_v have_v preference_n to_o act_n of_o mere_a bounty_n and_o voluntary_a grant_n and_o nothing_o else_o be_v or_o can_v be_v intend_v by_o i_o for_o more_o the_o king_n can_v not_o grant_v and_o so_o i_o have_v often_o explain_v myself_o i_o will_v add_v in_o the_o last_o place_n that_o whatever_o this_o consider_a man_n think_v to_o the_o contrary_a i_o do_v not_o doubt_v in_o a_o very_a short_a time_n if_o his_o majesty_n shall_v so_o think_v fit_a yet_o to_o raise_v a_o regiment_n of_o the_o english_a of_o ireland_n who_o will_v carry_v musket_n tho_o it_o be_v most_o plain_a my_o proposal_n for_o they_o aim_v at_o horse_n or_o dragoon_n and_o i_o have_v not_o confine_v myself_o to_o such_o only_a in_o the_o foot-service_n but_o i_o must_v not_o be_v tie_v up_o now_o to_o those_o in_o and_o about_o london_n for_o that_o most_o of_o those_o of_o the_o middle_a rank_n find_v it_o too_o chargeable_a to_o remain_v hereabout_o have_v remove_v into_o cheap_a country_n and_o though_o it_o will_v be_v a_o matter_n of_o much_o more_o difficulty_n to_o do_v now_o than_o when_o i_o undertake_v for_o it_o if_o sir_n r._n b._n doubt_v it_o he_o who_o have_v show_v the_o vehement_a bent_n of_o his_o inclination_n to_o expose_v i_o can_v take_v a_o more_o effectual_a way_n of_o do_v
