that_o regret_n this_o lord_n have_v for_o the_o increase_n of_o business_n and_o consequent_o power_n in_o the_o king_n affair_n i_o shall_v only_o make_v some_o observation_n upon_o this_o lord_n

what_o character_n mr._n montague_n give_v this_o lord_n in_o former_a letter_n or_o what_o opinion_n the_o french_a have_v of_o he_o be_v only_o liable_a to_o a_o reflection_n make_v by_o a_o

to_o repay_v england_n by_o counsel_n as_o weak_a as_o those_o which_o so_o much_o contribute_v to_o their_o success_n from_o these_o argument_n he_o conclude_v that_o it_o will_v puzzle_v the_o most_o uncharitable_a censurer_n to_o find_v another_o cause_n than_o their_o unwillingness_n to_o enslave_v their_o country_n why_o money_n from_o the_o french_a be_v refuse_v if_o this_o be_v a_o

for_o three_o year_n and_o offer_v to_o be_v accept_v be_v for_o the_o same_o purpose_n the_o last_o evidence_n instead_o of_o coffeehouse_n be_v now_o offer_v from_o gazette_n and_o the_o duchess_n of_o mazarines_n lodging_n the_o first_o declare_v the_o ill-will_n the_o french_a have_v for_o this_o lord_n and_o the_o other_o be_v a_o place_n where_o the_o present_a french_a ambassador_n be_v

as_o the_o other_o be_v that_o they_o have_v no_o such_o occasion_n now_o and_o for_o the_o other_o proof_n i_o have_v hear_v that_o the_o duchess_n of_o mazarines_n chamber_n have_v be_v more_o use_v to_o the_o free_a discourse_n of_o the_o confederate_a minister_n than_o the_o french_a ambassador_n but_o among_o these_o weighty_a argument_n and_o evidence_n i_o wonder_v it_o be_v omit_v that_o this_o lord_n drink_v a_o confusion_n to_o the_o french_a at_o the_o late_a bishop_n of_o canterbury_n house_n at_o dinner_n and_o i_o think_v it_o as_o full_a and_o cogent_a as_o most_o of_o the_o
