to_o the_o notary_n style_v in_o some_o nauseous_a repetition_n or_o that_o he_o will_v intimate_v by_o this_o that_o all_o the_o liberty_n that_o be_v leave_v the_o subject_n be_v comprehend_v in_o this_o toleration_n and_o indeed_o after_o absolute_a power_n be_v once_o assert_v it_o be_v never_o fit_a to_o name_v liberty_n without_o some_o restriction_n after_o this_o come_v a_o stately_a

who_o be_v neither_o enemy_n to_o the_o king_n nor_o to_o these_o addresser_n and_o that_o on_o the_o contrary_n they_o be_v enemy_n to_o it_o because_o they_o be_v the_o best_a friend_n that_o both_o

enemy_n either_o to_o the_o king_n or_o the_o people_n be_v one_o of_o the_o figure_n of_o this_o style_n that_o will_v hardly_o pass_v and_o some_o will_v not_o stick_v to_o say_v that_o the_o writer_n of_o this_o letter_n have_v with_o this_o dash_n of_o his_o pen_n declare_v more_o man_n enemy_n to_o the_o king_n than_o ever_o he_o will_v be_v able_a to_o make_v friend_n to_o he_o he_o

not_o hear_v any_o of_o they_o have_v the_o least_o thought_n yet_o by_o a_o secret_a figure_n of_o the_o secretary_n stile_n perhaps_o this_o belong_v to_o all_o those_o who_o either_o think_v that_o the_o king_n can_v do_v it_o by_o law_n or_o that_o will_v not_o give_v their_o vote_n to_o confirm_v it_o in_o parliament_n but_o i_o be_o not_o so_o well_o acquaint_v with_o all_o the_o mystery_n
