good_a law_n as_o that_o before_o mention_v if_o not_o a_o great_a deal_v better_o yet_o your_o master_n can_v dispense_v with_o his_o oath_n at_o this_o turn_n and_o reduce_v the_o horse_n to_o two_o and_o three_o penny_n a_o day_n and_o the_o foot_n to_o nine_o penny_n tim._n sir_n you_o endeavour_v to_o insinuate_v that_o my_o dear_a master_n be_v partial_a in_o the_o law_n which_o be_v a_o thing_n that_o must_v not_o be_v admit_v for_o i_o can_v show_v you_o good_a reason_n of_o state_n why_o the_o soldier_n pay_v shall_v be_v reduce_v plain_a let_v i_o hear_v they_o and_o i_o will_v consider_v they_o tim._n first_o the_o soldier_n be_v insensible_a of_o the_o grievous_a burden_n of_o tithe_n that_o the_o countryman_n lie_v under_o his_o highness_n to_o make_v they_o if_o not_o sensible_a yet_o conformable_a to_o the_o rest_n of_o their_o neighbour_n think_v good_a to_o take_v one_o penny_n off_o ten_o out_o of_o the_o soldier_n pay_v that_o so_o they_o may_v if_o they_o please_v tell_v their_o country_n landlord_n we_o be_v become_v like_o you_o for_o now_o we_o also_o pay_v tithe_n second_o his_o highness_n be_v necessitate_v to_o raise_v money_n to_o maintain_v his_o court_n in_o that_o splendour_n which_o become_v a_o prince_n of_o his_o extraction_n and_o in_o some_o measure_n to_o be_v like_o the_o king_n of_o other_o nation_n and_o let_v i_o tell_v you_o a_o protector_n necessity_n be_v above_o law_n three_o there_o be_v many_o of_o the_o old_a soldier_n which_o serve_v the_o parliament_n against_o the_o interest_n of_o a_o single_a person_n which_o now_o serve_v he_o only_o for_o a_o present_a livelihood_n which_o his_o highness_n well_o enough_o perceive_v take_v away_o part_n of_o that_o that_o so_o he_o may_v be_v rid_v of_o they_o four_o that_o he_o may_v ingratiate_v himself_o in_o the_o affection_n of_o the_o people_n that_o rather_o than_o he_o will_v oppress_v they_o he_o will_v pinch_v a_o penny_n a_o day_n out_o of_o the_o belly_n of_o the_o poor_a foot_n soldier_n and_o if_o they_o will_v take_v care_n to_o keep_v themselves_o honest_a he_o will_v keep_v they_o poor_a thus_o i_o have_v give_v you_o my_o reason_n of_o state_n to_o justify_v my_o master_n in_o take_v off_o a_o part_n of_o the_o soldier_n pay_v plain_a let_v i_o tell_v you_o that_o you_o speak_v very_o much_o like_o a_o courtier_n in_o what_o you_o have_v say_v and_o true_o neither_o i_o nor_o my_o brother_n sincerity_n nor_o any_o of_o the_o good_a honest_a soul_n that_o engage_v with_o we_o in_o the_o late_a war_n do_v ever_o think_v to_o have_v be_v so_o absolute_o cheat_v by_o you_o till_o we_o see_v all_o your_o prayer_n fast_n and_o appeal_v to_o heaven_n turn_v into_o a_o engine_n of_o state_n policy_n and_o if_o these_o be_v your_o court_n trick_n i_o hope_v my_o soul_n shall_v never_o enter_v into_o your_o secret_n and_o true_o my_o bowel_n yern_v for_o the_o poor_a soldier_n who_o have_v run_v so_o many_o hazard_n and_o fight_v so_o many_o famous_a battle_n storm_v so_o many_o town_n wade_v through_o so_o many_o river_n with_o the_o loss_n of_o limb_n and_o blood_n beside_o all_o the_o hunger_n and_o cold_a and_o lodging_n on_o the_o ground_n which_o they_o have_v go_v through_o do_v summer_n service_n in_o winter_n season_n and_o after_o all_o this_o to_o have_v the_o ten_o part_n of_o their_o pay_n take_v away_o and_o spend_v upon_o your_o new_a court_n that_o the_o gentleman_n usher_n and_o gentleman_n waiter_n the_o groom_n of_o the_o stool_n gentleman_n sewer_n beside_o the_o fiddler_n and_o other_o that_o i_o can_v name_v which_o shine_v in_o their_o gold_n and_o silver_n and_o that_o this_o may_v be_v maintain_v the_o poor_a foot_n soldier_n must_v contribute_v a_o penny_n a_o day_n towards_o the_o deffray_n of_o this_o charge_n but_o time_n call_v i_o away_o if_o you_o have_v not_o else_o to_o say_v i_o will_v be_v go_v tim_n i_o will_v have_v you_o resolve_v i_o this_o question_n whether_o or_o not_o it_o have_v be_v more_o just_a and_o honest_a for_o his_o highness_n to_o have_v reduce_v some_o of_o the_o great_a officer_n which_o some_o think_v may_v be_v very_o well_o spare_v and_o some_o of_o the_o pay_n of_o they_o that_o remain_v then_o to_o have_v take_v three_o penny_n a_o day_n from_o the_o horse_n and_o a_o penny_n from_o the_o foot_n plain_a to_o which_o i_o answer_v it_o have_v be_v more_o just_a and_o honest_a so_o to_o have_v do_v but_o it_o will_v not_o have_v conduce_v so_o much_o to_o the_o settlement_n of_o his_o greatness_n which_o be_v a_o thing_n that_o must_v be_v prize_v and_o prefer_v before_o all_o the_o justice_n and_o equity_n in_o the_o world_n as_o appear_v first_o the_o officer_n have_v take_v a_o great_a deal_n of_o pain_n and_o care_n to_o exalt_v he_o and_o therefore_o he_o must_v take_v heed_n he_o do_v not_o displease_v they_o for_o fear_v they_o which_o do_v ex●lt_n shall_v abase_v second_o they_o be_v content_a that_o he_o shall_v have_v 200000._o pound_n a_o year_n and_o therefore_o he_o must_v let_v they_o have_v good_a round_a sum_n three_o the_o loss_n of_o one_o officer_n may_v be_v more_o detriment_n to_o he_o and_o his_o affair_n than_o the_o loss_n of_o a_o hundred_o private_a man_n four_o the_o private_a soldier_n never_o find_v the_o sweetness_n of_o great_a revenue_n as_o the_o officer_n have_v do_v and_o therefore_o they_o may_v part_v with_o their_o ten_o with_o the_o less_o grief_n thus_o i_o have_v give_v you_o my_o resolve_n as_o to_o that_o question_n tim._n sir_n i_o see_v you_o have_v some_o inspection_n into_o our_o action_n at_o court_n which_o make_v i_o the_o more_o willing_a to_o confer_v with_o you_o and_o i_o desire_v you_o to_o resolve_v i_o this_o question_n which_o depend_v upon_o a_o say_n of_o my_o master_n to_o the_o godly_a people_n which_o petition_v he_o to_o make_v void_a the_o ordinance_n of_o blasphemy_n and_o heresy_n the_o word_n be_v these_o that_o if_o they_o take_v care_n to_o cleanse_v the_o church_n by_o excommunication_n he_o must_v take_v the_o like_a care_n of_o the_o commonwealth_n my_o desire_n be_v to_o know_v of_o you_o what_o you_o think_v his_o highness_n will_v cleanse_v the_o commonwealth_n of_o plain_a true_o sir_n you_o have_v put_v i_o to_o a_o stand_n for_o i_o can_v imagine_v what_o he_o shall_v intend_v in_o that_o say_n for_o if_o he_o shall_v cleanse_v the_o commonwealth_n of_o hypocrite_n than_o there_o will_v be_v one_o less_o at_o whitehall_n second_o if_o he_o shall_v cleanse_v the_o commonwealth_n of_o oppressor_n than_o the_o broom_n will_v sweep_v itself_o away_o three_o if_o the_o commonwealth_n shall_v be_v cleanse_v of_o covenant-breaker_n then_o where_o will_v he_o find_v a_o habitation_n four_o if_o of_o such_o as_o devour_v the_o man_n that_o be_v more_o righteous_a than_o himself_o than_o our_o new_a monarchy_n will_v receive_v a_o blow_n five_o if_o the_o commonwealth_n shall_v be_v cleanse_v of_o such_o a_o fast_a and_o pray_v and_o under_o that_o pretence_n devour_v widow_n house_n than_o it_o be_v to_o be_v fear_v we_o shall_v loose_v he_o so_o that_o i_o shall_v lay_v down_o no_o resolve_n to_o this_o question_n but_o leave_v it_o for_o you_o to_o inquire_v of_o your_o great_a master_n what_o the_o com-wealth_n shall_v be_v cleanse_v of_o tim._n sir_n i_o can_v have_v give_v a_o better_a answer_n myself_o then_o this_o which_o you_o have_v give_v plain_a i_o pray_v you_o sir_n do_v and_o i_o will_v consider_v it_o tim._n sir_n first_o his_o highness_n will_v cleanse_v the_o commonwealth_n of_o her_o money_n the_o love_n of_o which_o be_v the_o root_n of_o all_o evil_a second_o he_o will_v cleanse_v she_o of_o super_fw-la fluons_a member_n and_o send_v
