concreate_v thankfulness_n express_v in_o action_n we_o have_v often_o say_v and_o profess_v that_o religion_n as_o it_o be_v the_o chief_a so_o it_o ought_v to_o be_v our_o first_o business_n yet_o many_o other_o have_v get_v precedence_n of_o it_o we_o have_v hitherto_o make_v but_o a_o small_a progression_n wherefore_o m._n speaker_n let_v we_o not_o now_o slack_a to_o proceed_v in_o it_o

religion_n to_o bind_v up_o the_o loose_a scatter_a piece_n of_o it_o in_o a_o orderly_a regular_a government_n the_o masterpiece_n of_o this_o great_a work_n will_v be_v the_o election_n of_o fit_a

conscience_n and_o judgement_n of_o their_o chooser_n my_o humble_a motion_n be_v that_o after_o this_o long-desired_a and_o long-delayed_n reformation_n we_o may_v now_o all_o of_o we_o join_v as_o one_o man_n for_o the_o peace_n of_o jerusalem_n and_o the_o israel_n of_o god_n so_o shall_v we_o prosper_v because_o we_o love_v it_o the_o second_o speech_n concern_v a_o west-indy_n association_n

propound_v in_o parliament_n a_o design_n more_o proper_a for_o this_o kingdom_n nor_o of_o more_o pregnant_a advantage_n to_o it_o whether_o we_o consider_v the_o nature_n of_o our_o situation_n or_o the_o quality_n of_o our_o enemy_n force_n as_o we_o be_v a_o jland_n it_o concern_v our_o very_a be_v to_o have_v store_n of_o ship_n to_o defend_v we_o and_o also_o our_o well-being_n by_o their_o trade_n to_o enrich_v we_o this_o association_n for_o the_o west_n indies_n when_o it_o shall_v be_v regulate_v and_o establish_v by_o act_n of_o parliament_n and_o thereby_o secure_v from_o the_o violence_n and_o injury_n of_o any_o intrude_a hand_n it_o will_v certain_o give_v many_o man_n encouragement_n and_o confidence_n voluntary_o to_o bring_v in_o large_a and_o liberal_a contribution_n towards_o so_o noble_a so_o profitable_a a_o enterprise_n so_o that_o in_o short_a time_n we_o shall_v see_v many_o new_a ship_n build_v many_o brave_a man_n employ_v and_o enable_v for_o the_o service_n of_o their_o country_n none_o of_o this_o money_n shall_v be_v carry_v out_o of_o the_o kingdom_n but_o lay_v out_o for_o ship_v which_o be_v the_o defence_n of_o it_o and_o bestow_v upon_o our_o own_o man_n who_o must_v be_v feed_v and_o maintain_v though_o they_o stay_v at_o home_n for_o this_o we_o shall_v reap_v the_o fruit_n of_o whatsoever_o benefit_n plantation_n traffic_n or_o purchase_n can_v procure_v we_o beside_o honour_n and_o security_n now_o let_v we_o a_o little_a consider_v the_o enemy_n we_o be_v to_o encounter_v the_o king_n of_o spain_n they_o be_v not_o his_o great_a territory_n which_o make_v he_o so_o powerful_a and_o so_o troublesome_a to_o all_o christendom_n for_o it_o be_v very_o well_o know_v that_o spain_n itself_o be_v but_o week_n in_o man_n and_o barren_a of_o natural_a commodity_n as_o for_o his_o other_o territory_n they_o lie_v divide_v and_o asunder_o which_o be_v a_o weakness_n in_o its_o self_n beside_o they_o be_v hold_v by_o force_n and_o maintain_v at_o a_o extraordinary_a charge_n insomuch_o as_o although_o he_o be_v a_o great_a king_n yet_o be_v he_o like_o the_o great_a giant_n who_o be_v say_v to_o have_v too_o hand_n but_o he_o have_v 50_o belly_n to_o feed_v so_o that_o ratable_o he_o have_v no_o more_o hand_n than_o another_o man_n no_o sir_n they_o be_v his_o mine_n in_o the_o west_n indies_n which_o minister_n fuel_n to_o feed_v his_o vast_a ambitious_a desire_n of_o universal_a monarchy_n it_o be_v the_o money_n he_o have_v from_o thence_o which_o make_v he_o able_a to_o levy_v and_o pay_v soldier_n in_o all_o place_n and_o to_o keep_v a_o army_n continual_o on_o foot_n ready_a to_o invade_v and_o endanger_v his_o neighbour_n so_o that_o we_o have_v no_o other_o way_n but_o to_o endeavour_v to_o cut_v he_o up_o at_o root_n and_o seek_v to_o impeach_v or_o to_o supplant_v he_o in_o the_o west_n indies_n by_o part_n of_o which_o course_n that_o famous_a queen_n of_o most_o glorious_a memory_n have_v heretofore_o almost_o bring_v he_o on_o his_o knee_n and_o this_o our_o undertake_n if_o it_o please_v god_n to_o bless_v it_o must_v needs_o effect_v it_o soon_o and_o quick_a the_o whole_a body_n of_o the_o kingdom_n be_v unite_v and_o concur_v in_o a_o perpetual_a supply_n to_o this_o action_n so_o that_o he_o will_v have_v no_o free_a time_n give_v he_o to_o rest_n moreover_o this_o will_v be_v a_o mean_v not_o only_o to_o save_v but_o to_o fill_v his_o majesty_n coffer_n enable_v the_o people_n to_o give_v he_o liberal_o and_o often_o the_o king_n ship_n will_v have_v little_a to_o do_v but_o to_o guard_v the_o coast_n for_o the_o sea-war_n will_v chief_o be_v make_v at_o the_o charge_n of_o the_o subject_n thus_o sir_n dudley_n dig_v i_o doubt_v not_o but_o that_o in_o short_a time_n both_o king_n and_o people_n shall_v be_v safe_a at_o home_n and_o fear_v abroad_o to_o conclude_v i_o shall_v be_v very_o glad_a to_o hear_v any_o man_n make_v objection_n against_o this_o design_n so_o that_o he_o do_v it_o with_o a_o intention_n to_o refine_v and_o perfect_v the_o work_n but_o if_o any_o shall_v speak_v against_o it_o with_o a_o mind_n to_o hinder_v and_o destroy_v it_o i_o must_v entreat_v he_o to_o pardon_v i_o if_o i_o do_v scarce_o think_v he_o to_o be_v a_o good_a englishman_n fjnjs_fw-la
