on_o this_o head_n i_o think_v myself_o oblige_v to_o mention_v with_o a_o very_a particular_a concern_v a_o debt_n which_o be_v owe_v to_o the_o prince_n of_o denmark_n the_o state_n whereof_o i_o have_v order_v to_o be_v lay_v before_o you_o gentleman_n of_o the_o house_n of_o commons_o these_o thing_n be_v of_o such_o importance_n that_o i_o must_v earnest_o recommend_v they_o to_o your_o

under_o the_o necessity_n of_o so_o often_o ask_v aid_n of_o my_o people_n but_o as_o the_o reason_n of_o it_o be_v evident_a because_o the_o fond_n former_o apply_v to_o defray_v the_o public_a expense_n be_v now_o anticipate_v for_o payment_n of_o the_o debt_n of_o the_o kingdom_n so_o it_o be_v my_o satisfaction_n that_o you_o all_o see_v that_o nothing_o of_o what_o be_v demand_v be_v

the_o increase_n of_o the_o poor_a be_v become_v a_o burden_n to_o the_o kingdom_n and_o their_o loose_a and_o idle_a life_n do_v in_o some_o measure_n contribute_v to_o that_o depravation_n of_o
