that_o at_o the_o least_o it_o will_v please_v your_o lordship_n to_o put_v this_o people_n in_o some_o certain_a hope_n that_o upon_o the_o end_n of_o the_o war_n this_o new_a standard_n shall_v be_v abolish_v or_o ease_v and_o that_o in_o the_o mean_a time_n the_o army_n may_v be_v favourable_o deal_v with_o in_o the_o exchange_n since_o by_o the_o last_o proclamation_n your_o lordship_n send_v over_o they_o do_v conceive_v their_o case_n will_v be_v more_o hard_a than_o any_o other_o for_o if_o they_o have_v allow_v they_o nothing_o but_o indefinite_o as_o much_o as_o they_o shall_v mere_o gain_v out_o of_o their_o entertainment_n that_o will_v prove_v nothing_o to_o the_o great_a part_n for_o the_o only_a possibility_n to_o make_v they_o to_o live_v upon_o their_o entertainment_n will_v be_v to_o allow_v they_o exchange_n for_o the_o great_a part_n thereof_o since_o now_o they_o do_v not_o only_o pay_v excessive_a prize_n for_o all_o thing_n but_o can_v hardly_o get_v any_o
