letter_n to_o the_o county_n of_o essex_n of_o the_o looseness_n and_o inconstancy_n of_o his_o soldier_n by_o looseness_n he_o mean_v run_v away_o from_o he_o and_o by_o inconstancy_n run_v away_o from_o before_o we_o when_o we_o offer_v to_o charge_v they_o but_o the_o word_n themselves_o be_v full_a and_o home_o and_o i_o can_v pass_v that_o the_o earl_n be_v trouble_v at_o those_o horrible_a

often_o now_o to_o mention_v nay_o upon_o a_o exact_a survey_n this_o very_a thing_n have_v be_v call_v upon_o by_o his_o majesty_n above_o sixscore_o several_a time_n in_o his_o declaration_n and_o

and_o such_o a_o dust_n raise_v both_o in_o the_o house_n and_o among_o their_o faction_n in_o the_o city_n as_o if_o the_o earl_n have_v now_o persuade_v they_o to_o remember_v themselves_o &_o submit_v to_o his_o majesty_n which_o you_o will_v say_v will_v quick_o have_v be_v vote_v for_o another_o new_a and_o horrible_a plot._n and_o for_o bring_v delinquent_n to_o a_o legal_a trial_n
