all_o the_o deliberation_n imaginable_a you_o declare_v yourselves_o to_o become_v doubtful_a and_o you_o put_v yourselves_o out_o of_o your_o own_o hand_n into_o that_o power_n that_o you_o have_v

that_o the_o harmony_n good_a agreement_n and_o concord_n that_o be_v to_o be_v pray_v for_o at_o most_o other_o time_n may_v be_v fatal_a to_o we_o now_o we_o owe_v the_o peace_n of_o this_o last_o two_o year_n disingagement_n from_o the_o french_a interest_n to_o the_o two_o house_n differ_v from_o the_o sense_n and_o opinion_n of_o whitehall_n so_o at_o this_o time_n the_o thing_n in_o the_o

my_o lord_n to_o conclude_v this_o point_n i_o fear_v the_o court_n of_o england_n be_v great_o mistake_v in_o it_o and_o i_o do_v not_o wish_v they_o the_o reputation_n of_o the_o concurrence_n of_o

that_o they_o have_v unanimous_o go_v against_o we_o in_o matter_n that_o many_o of_o we_o have_v think_v essential_a and_o undoubted_a right_n and_o i_o consider_v that_o it_o be_v not_o possible_a that_o man_n of_o great_a learning_n piety_n and_o reason_n as_o their_o lordship_n

therefore_o my_o lord_n i_o must_v necessary_o think_v we_o differ_v in_o principle_n and_o then_o it_o be_v very_o easy_a to_o apprehend_v what_o be_v the_o clear_a sense_n to_o man_n of_o my_o

before_o we_o my_o principle_n be_v that_o the_o king_n be_v king_n by_o law_n and_o by_o the_o same_o law_n that_o tbe_n poor_a man_n enjoy_v his_o cottage_n and_o so_o it_o become_v the_o concern_v
