my_o lord_n and_o gentleman_n i_o be_o very_o glad_a to_o meet_v you_o again_o in_o parliament_n where_o i_o have_v a_o opportunity_n of_o thank_v you_o for_o the_o great_a supply_v you_o have_v give_v i_o for_o the_o prosecution_n of_o this_o war_n and_o i_o hope_v by_o your_o advice_n and_o assistance_n which_o have_v never_o fail_v i_o to_o take_v such_o measure_n as_o may_v be_v most_o proper_a for_o support_v our_o common_a interest_n against_o the_o excessive_a power_n of_o france_n we_o have_v great_a reason_n to_o rejoice_v in_o the_o happy_a victory_n which_o by_o the_o

so_o remarkable_a a_o part_n in_o both_o that_o their_o bravery_n and_o courage_n must_v ever_o be_v remember_v to_o their_o honour_n the_o french_a be_v repair_v their_o loss_n at_o sea_n with_o

at_o least_o as_o great_a a_o force_n be_v maintain_v at_o sea_n and_o land_n as_o we_o have_v the_o last_o year_n and_o therefore_o i_o must_v ask_v of_o you_o gentleman_n of_o the_o house_n of_o commons_o a_o supply_v suitable_a to_o so_o great_a a_o occasion_n i_o be_o very_o sensible_a how_o heavy_a this_o charge_n be_v upon_o my_o people_n and_o it_o extreme_o afflict_v i_o that_o it_o be_v not_o possible_a to_o be_v avoid_v without_o expose_v ourselves_o to_o inevitable_a ruin_n and_o destruction_n the_o inconvenience_n of_o send_v out_o of_o the_o kingdom_n great_a sum_n of_o

last_o summer_n i_o intend_v to_o attempt_v it_o the_o next_o year_n with_o a_o much_o more_o considerable_a force_n and_o so_o soon_o as_o i_o shall_v be_v enable_v all_o possible_a care_n and_o application_n shall_v be_v use_v towards_o it_o and_o upon_o this_o occasion_n i_o can_v omit_v take_v notice_n of_o that_o signal_n deliverance_n which_o by_o the_o good_a providence_n of_o god_n we_o receive_v the_o last_o spring_n to_o the_o disappointment_n and_o confusion_n of_o our_o enemy_n design_n and_o expectation_n this_o have_v sufficient_o show_v we_o how_o much_o we_o be_v

have_v the_o same_o religion_n to_o defend_v and_o you_o can_v be_v more_o concern_v for_o the_o preservation_n of_o your_o liberty_n and_o property_n than_o i_o be_o that_o you_o shall_v always_o
