lord_n and_o gentleman_n it_o be_v with_o great_a satisfaction_n that_o i_o meet_v you_o here_o this_o day_n be_v assure_v of_o a_o good_a disposition_n in_o my_o parliament_n when_o i_o have_v have_v such_o full_a proof_n of_o the_o affection_n of_o my_o people_n by_o their_o behaviour_n during_o my_o absence_n and_o at_o my_o return_n i_o be_v engage_v in_o the_o present_a war_n by_o the_o advice_n of_o my_o first_o parliament_n who_o think_v it_o necessary_a for_o the_o defence_n of_o our_o religion_n and_o for_o the_o preservation_n of_o the_o liberty_n of_o europe_n the_o last_o parliament_n with_o great_a cheerfulness_n do_v assist_v i_o to_o carry_v it_o on_o and_o i_o can_v doubt_v but_o that_o your_o concern_v for_o the_o common_a safety_n will_v oblige_v you_o to_o be_v unanimous_o zealous_a in_o the_o prosecution_n of_o it_o and_o i_o be_o glad_a that_o the_o advantage_n which_o we_o have_v have_v this_o year_n give_v we_o a_o reasonable_a ground_n of_o hope_v for_o further_a success_n hereafter_o upon_o this_o occasion_n i_o can_v but_o take_v notice_n of_o the_o courage_n and_o bravery_n the_o english_a troop_n have_v show_v this_o last_o summer_n which_o i_o may_v say_v have_v answer_v their_o high_a character_n in_o any_o ager_n and_o it_o will_v not_o be_v deny_v that_o without_o the_o concurrence_n of_o the_o valour_n and_o power_n of_o england_n it_o be_v impossible_a to_o put_v a_o stop_n to_o the_o ambition_n and_o greatness_n of_o france_n gentleman_n of_o the_o house_n of_o commons_o i_o think_v it_o a_o great_a misfortune_n that_o from_o the_o beginning_n of_o my_o reign_n i_o have_v be_v force_v to_o ask_v so_o many_o and_o such_o large_a aid_n of_o my_o people_n and_o yet_o i_o be_o confident_a you_o will_v agree_v with_o i_o in_o opinion_n that_o there_o will_v be_v at_o least_o as_o great_a supply_n requisite_a for_o carry_v on_o the_o war_n by_o sea_n and_o land_n this_o year_n as_o be_v grant_v in_o the_o last_o session_n the_o rather_o because_o our_o enemy_n be_v augment_v their_o troop_n and_o the_o necessity_n of_o increase_v our_o ship_n do_v plain_o appear_v the_o fond_n which_o have_v be_v give_v have_v prove_v very_o deficient_a the_o condition_n of_o the_o civil_a list_n be_v such_o that_o it_o will_v not_o be_v possible_a for_o i_o to_o subsist_v unless_o that_o matter_n be_v take_v into_o your_o care_n and_o compassion_n oblige_v i_o to_o mention_v the_o miserable_a circumstance_n of_o the_o french_a protestand_n who_o suffer_v for_o their_o religion_n and_o therefore_o gentleman_n i_o most_o earnest_o recommend_v to_o you_o to_o provide_v a_o supply_n suitable_a to_o these_o several_a occasion_n i_o must_v likewise_o take_v notice_n of_o a_o great_a difficulty_n we_o lie_v under_o at_o this_o time_n by_o reason_n of_o the_o ill_a state_n of_o the_o coin_n the_o redress_n of_o which_o may_v perhaps_o prove_v a_o further_a charge_n to_o the_o nation_n but_o this_o be_v a_o matter_n of_o so_o general_a concern_v and_o of_o so_o very_o great_a importance_n that_o i_o have_v think_v fit_a to_o leave_v it_o entire_o to_o the_o consideration_n of_o my_o parliament_n i_o do_v recommend_v to_o the_o last_o parliament_n the_o form_v some_o good_a bill_n for_o the_o encouragement_n and_o increase_n of_o seam●…_n i_o hope_v you_o will_v not_o let_v this_o session_n pass_v without_o do_v somewhat_o in_o it_o and_o that_o you_o will_v consider_v of_o such_o law_n as_o may_v be_v proper_a for_o the_o advancement_n of_o trade_n and_o will_v have_v a_o particular_a regard_n to_o that_o of_o the_o east-indies_n lest_o it_o shall_v be_v lose_v to_o the_o nation_n and_o while_o the_o war_n make_v it_o necessary_a to_o have_v a_o army_n abroad_o i_o can_v wish_v some_o way_n may_v be_v think_v of_o to_o raise_v the_o necessary_a recruit_n without_o give_v occasion_n of_o complaint_n my_o desire_n to_o meet_v my_o people_n in_o a_o new_a parliament_n have_v make_v the_o open_v of_o this_o session_n very_o late_o which_o i_o hope_v you_o will_v have_v such_o regard_n to_o as_o to_o make_v all_o possible_a dispatch_v of_o the_o great_a business_n before_o you_o and_o will_v call_v to_o mind_n that_o by_o the_o long_a continuance_n of_o the_o last_o session_n we_o do_v not_o only_o lose_v advantage_n which_o we_o may_v have_v have_v at_o the_o beginning_n of_o the_o campaign_n but_o give_v the_o enemy_n such_o a_o opportunity_n as_o may_v have_v prove_v very_o fatal_a to_o us._n and_o i_o be_o the_o more_o concern_v to_o press_v this_o because_o of_o the_o great_a preparation_n which_o the_o french_a make_v to_o be_v early_o in_o the_o field_n this_o year_n my_o lord_n i_o have_v have_v such_o experience_n of_o your_o good_a affection_n and_o i_o have_v such_o a_o entire_a satisfaction_n in_o the_o choice_n which_o my_o people_n have_v make_v of_o you_o gentleman_n of_o the_o house_n of_o commons_o that_o i_o promise_v myself_o a_o happy_a conclusion_n of_o this_o session_n unless_o you_o suffer_v yourselves_o to_o be_v mislead_v into_o heat_n and_o division_n which_o be_v the_o only_a hope_n our_o enemy_n have_v now_o leave_v i_o make_v no_o doubt_n but_o you_o will_v entire_o disappoint_v by_o your_o prudence_n and_o love_n to_o your_o country_n finis_fw-la
