as_o may_v just_o call_v the_o truth_n and_o sincerity_n of_o the_o whole_a in_o question_n i_o know_v but_o one_o excuse_n for_o he_o that_o he_o have_v make_v it_o almost_o all_o of_o a_o piece_n and_o though_o he_o have_v have_v little_a regard_n to_o truth_n yet_o he_o have_v so_o order_v the_o matter_n that_o he_o can_v deceive_v no_o body_n but_o those_o who_o have_v a_o great_a mind_n to_o be_v deceive_v and_o it_o be_v not_o amiss_o that_o such_o shall_v be_v gratify_v who_o but_o the_o late_a king_n can_v hope_v to_o persuade_v the_o world_n that_o to_o restore_v he_o to_o his_o

he_o may_v be_v mistake_v in_o this_o for_o the_o french_a king_n may_v quick_o be_v glad_a to_o make_v peace_n and_o leave_v he_o and_o his_o restoration_n out_o of_o the_o treaty_n for_o thing_n be_v come_v to_o that_o extremity_n now_o that_o it_o be_v in_o vain_a to_o think_v of_o peace_n till_o lewis_n the_o great_a be_v reduce_v to_o such_o a_o state_n as_o to_o accept_v it_o and_o unable_a to_o break_v it_o and_o then_o this_o argument_n return_v upon_o he_o for_o the_o peace_n of_o europe_n be_v a_o necessary_a reason_n why_o he_o shall_v not_o be_v restore_v as_o i_o observe_v in_o my_o former_a letter_n but_o he_o who_o can_v fancy_v himself_o to_o be_v a_o proper_a and_o effectual_a mediator_n for_o a_o peace_n if_o he_o be_v restore_v must_v have_v liberty_n to_o fancy_v any_o thing_n and_o it_o be_v happy_a for_o he_o that_o he_o have_v so_o comfortable_a a_o imagination_n i_o do_v real_o pity_v he_o too_o much_o to_o endeavour_v to_o dispossess_v he_o of_o it_o because_o that_o will_v be_v to_o undo_v he_o more_o than_o he_o be_v already_o undo_v declaration_n since_o therefore_o we_o come_v with_o so_o good_a purpose_n and_o so_o good_a a_o
