fr●ite_n of_o my_o come_n to_o this_o city_n if_o after_o five_o year_n unprofitableness_n i_o may_v speak_v somewhat_o this_o afternoon_n that_o may_v enlarge_v your_o heart_n to_o a_o great_a

how_o willing_o they_o go_v away_o without_o do_v any_o hurt_n and_o i_o doubt_v not_o of_o the_o same_o faithfulness_n nay_o you_o ought_v all_o to_o believe_v that_o they_o will_v likewise_o when_o they_o have_v do_v the_o work_n they_o be_v call_v too_o in_o england_n they_o will_v likewise_o with_o the_o same_o faithfulness_n depart_v for_o it_o be_v religion_n that_o bring_v they_o here_o and_o the_o same_o religion_n will_v make_v they_o willing_o leave_v we_o and_o go_v home_o to_o their_o own_o country_n when_o they_o have_v do_v that_o work_n for_o which_o they_o come_v i_o be_o

as_o it_o be_v for_o the_o master_n and_o mariner_n of_o a_o ship_n when_o it_o be_v ready_a to_o sink_v through_o a_o mighty_a tempest_n to_o call_v in_o other_o mariner_n to_o help_v to_o keep_v

you_o may_v remember_v all_o the_o ill-affected_a do_v contribute_v money_n to_o keep_v they_o out_o of_o this_o kingdom_n and_o from_o tarry_v in_o but_o it_o please_v almighty_a god_n through_o
