the_o highland_n and_o take_v arm_n against_o his_o country_n this_o be_v pure_o a_o forgery_n and_o misrepresentation_n dundee_n do_v indeed_o pretend_v hazard_n and_o make_v complaint_n but_o they_o

much_o insist_v upon_o it_o be_v main_o a_o declaration_n against_o the_o state_n and_o the_o present_a parliament_n which_o this_o gentleman_n according_a to_o his_o wont_a modesty_n wish_v to_o be_v dissolve_v and_o another_o call_v from_o which_o he_o promise_v a_o redress_n of_o all_o these_o thing_n that_o he_o think_v to_o be_v grievance_n and_o indeed_o if_o we_o consider_v the_o strain_n of_o his_o letter_n we_o may_v conclude_v that_o from_o it_o he_o expect_v a_o utter_a overturning_a of_o the_o present_a settlement_n both_o of_o the_o church_n and_o of_o the_o state_n and_o all_o

to_o the_o set_n up_o of_o many_o ignorance_n be_v the_o cause_n of_o wonder_v we_o know_v how_o well_o these_o two_o government_n of_o church_n and_o state_n have_v suit_v one_o another_o many_o

of_o the_o world_n the_o other_o from_o christ_n as_o king_n of_o his_o church_n they_o be_v about_o most_o different_a object_n the_o one_o about_o the_o affair_n of_o the_o world_n the_o other_o about_o the_o concern_v of_o man_n soul_n they_o be_v exercise_v in_o different_a way_n the_o one_o by_o officer_n of_o man_n devise_v the_o other_o by_o officer_n of_o christ_n institution_n the_o

of_o scotland_n do_v a_o little_a damp_n their_o hope_n from_o king_n james_n he_o have_v not_o yet_o do_v with_o wonder_v it_o be_v wonder_v that_o the_o church_n of_o england_n do_v not_o
