can_v expect_v any_o grateful_a return_n i_o will_v recall_v to_o your_o mind_n his_o behaviour_n while_o he_o be_v on_o the_o throne_n of_o england_n i_o suppose_v no_o body_n have_v forget_v that_o no_o protestant_n be_v welcome_a to_o he_o but_o such_o as_o will_v promise_v to_o betray_v the_o liberty_n of_o their_o country_n to_o popery_n and_o arbitrary_a power_n neither_o shall_v i_o
