to_o be_v the_o former_a quarrel_n but_o now_o even_a religion_n the_o root_n up_o of_o the_o protestant_a religion_n and_o extirpation_n of_o the_o english_a be_v the_o quarrel_n the_o rebel_n be_v so_o audacious_a as_o to_o scandalize_v the_o king_n and_o queen_n and_o the_o question_n be_v not_o now_o whether_o irish_a or_o english_a but_o whether_o the_o protestant_a or_o popish_a religion_n shall_v stand_v in_o that_o kingdom_n this_o rage_n of_o they_o stay_v not_o there_o they_o intend_v to_o stain_v this_o land_n with_o the_o blood_n of_o protestant_n the_o life_n and_o soul_n of_o

have_v be_v dispute_v and_o ●ottering_v in_o that_o realm_n these_o 400_o year_n he_o then_o proceed_v to_o the_o three_o motive_n and_o say_v the_o people_n of_o england_n have_v late_o undergo_v many_o and_o heavy_a payment_n he_o mean_v not_o those_o illegal_a payment_n which_o be_v a_o just_a punishment_n to_o such_o as_o will_v submit_v to_o such_o unjust_a charge_n but_o he_o speak_v of_o the_o levye_n by_o parliament_n the_o burden_n whereof_o together_o with_o the_o decay_n of_o trade_n our_o neighbour_n in_o the_o country_n be_v very_o sensible_a by_o those_o proposition_n read_v to_o your_o lordship_n the_o poor_a sort_n will_v be_v ease_v the_o payment_n make_v easy_a because_o voluntary_a and_o thereupon_o will_v be_v many_o and_o cheerful_a giver_n who_o must_v ever_o have_v the_o honour_n of_o a_o memory_n to_o have_v contribute_v to_o so_o good_a a_o work_n so_o as_o where_o profit_n be_v a_o ingredient_n with_o piety_n and_o loyalty_n the_o plaster_n will_v be_v soon_o apply_v to_o ireland_n when_o therefore_o our_o duty_n to_o god_n and_o the_o king_n may_v invite_v to_o so_o good_a a_o work_n he_o doubt_v not_o of_o your_o lordship_n concurrence_n with_o the_o house_n of_o commons_o for_o the_o good_a of_o that_o which_o be_v the_o good_a of_o the_o kingdom_n have_v say_v thus_o much_o in_o general_n he_o offer_v some_o thing_n to_o the_o proposition_n in_o particular_a that_o whereas_o the_o first_o proposition_n demand_v two_o million_o and_o half_a of_o acre_n for_o the_o undertaker_n which_o may_v at_o first_o sight_n look_v as_o a_o great_a demand_n to_o such_o as_o know_v not_o the_o extent_n of_o that_o kingdom_n which_o be_v compute_v by_o those_o who_o well_o understand_v the_o latitude_n of_o it_o to_o contain_v 15._o million_o of_o acre_n and_o therefore_o to_o take_v out_o two_o million_o and_o half_a when_o two_o part_n of_o three_o of_o that_o kingdom_n be_v in_o open_a rebellion_n be_v not_o so_o great_a a_o demand_n as_o may_v at_o first_o sight_n appear_v and_o the_o proposition_n conduce_v much_o to_o the_o raise_n of_o rent_n to_o the_o king_n he_o say_v it_o be_v well_o know_v that_o the_o revenue_n of_o the_o exchequer_n and_o court_n of_o ward_n in_o ireland_n do_v not_o exceed_v the_o sum_n of_o 43000_o l._n yearly_a beside_o the_o custom_n which_o your_o lordship_n find_v not_o great_a except_o in_o monopoly_n and_o undue_a charge_n what_o ever_o the_o custom_n be_v they_o will_v be_v by_o these_o proposition_n much_o advance_v 20_o or_o 30_o thousand_o pound_n a_o year_n rent_n will_v accrue_v to_o the_o crown_n by_o the_o reservation_n in_o they_o express_v beside_o 7_o million_o and_o half_a of_o acre_n over_o and_o above_o the_o two_o million_o and_o half_o desire_v in_o the_o proposition_n leave_v to_o the_o king_n disposal_n the_o other_o proposition_n which_o be_v for_o the_o manner_n of_o bring_v in_o of_o the_o money_n be_v very_o necessary_a nothing_o be_v of_o more_o consequence_n then_o to_o dispatch_v this_o war_n he_o observe_v out_o of_o livy_n that_o the_o roman_n make_v their_o war_n great_a and_o short_a some_o they_o finish_v within_o 6_o some_o within_o 10_o other_o within_o 20_o day_n as_o with_o the_o samnite_n latin_n etc._n etc._n he_o do_v not_o mention_v this_o as_o though_o it_o be_v feasible_a for_o we_o to_o conclude_v this_o war_n in_o so_o short_a a_o time_n but_o only_o to_o prove_v by_o the_o action_n of_o that_o great_a state_n that_o nothing_o be_v more_o advantageous_a to_o a_o state_n than_o the_o speedy_a dispatch_n of_o a_o war_n and_o he_o hope_v that_o if_o this_o money_n come_v in_o the_o war_n of_o ireland_n may_v be_v bring_v to_o a_o short_a issue_n he_o add_v that_o he_o remember_v with_o grief_n the_o former_a obstruction_n for_o ireland_n but_o he_o now_o hope_v by_o the_o king_n and_o your_o lordship_n concurrence_n that_o delay_n will_v be_v turn_v into_o dispatch_n and_o this_o be_v necessary_a because_o forragine_n prince_n though_o now_o otherwise_o employ_v will_v be_v a_o waken_v by_o a_o last_a war_n to_o take_v care_n of_o our_o affair_n he_o observe_v the_o course_n of_o ireland_n first_o plantation_n to_o suit_n much_o to_o this_o propound_v king_n william_n the_o first_o give_v leave_v to_o 12_o knight_n to_o go_v into_o wales_n to_o get_v what_o they_o can_v and_o to_o
