mount_v the_o guard_n which_o seem_v to_o indicate_v that_o there_o be_v a_o grow_a necessity_n that_o some_o coercive_a power_n or_o law_n shall_v be_v set_v up_o again_o as_o former_o for_o make_v the_o militia_n artillery_n or_o trainedbands_n useful_a as_o former_o i_o shall_v not_o insist_v upon_o this_o coercive_a power_n at_o present_a but_o appropriate_a it_o to_o a_o particular_a paragraph_n where_o i_o shall_v not_o argue_v it_o to_o be_v place_v as_o a_o additional_a power_n in_o the_o military_a officer_n but_o rather_o adhere_v to_o the_o fix_v of_o it_o in_o the_o civil_a magistrate_n who_o must_v be_v diligent_a and_o active_a consentaneous_o with_o the_o military_a officer_n according_a to_o the_o emblem_n and_o motto_n of_o our_o neighbour_n be_v two_o earthen_a pot_n float_v on_o the_o sea_n with_o this_o inscription_n si_fw-mi collidimur_fw-la frangimur_fw-la i_o know_v not_o to_o what_o charge_n and_o uncertainty_n we_o shall_v run_v for_o its_o visible_a that_o ever_o since_o the_o civil-war_n the_o militia_n have_v annual_o decline_v and_o it_o be_v in_o those_o unhappy_a time_n that_o the_o first_o attempt_n be_v for_o put_v the_o charge_n of_o the_o militia_n into_o stand_a troop_n for_o aw_v and_o insult_a the_o nobility_n gentry_n and_o freeholder_n i_o hope_v we_o shall_v not_o follow_v the_o pattern_n of_o those_o unaccountable_a time_n when_o we_o be_v so_o unfortunate_a and_o unhappy_a as_o to_o want_v both_o king_n lord_n and_o free_a parliament_n though_o i_o must_v confess_v we_o seem_v by_o the_o neglect_n and_o disparage_v of_o the_o militia_n to_o incline_v to_o the_o like_a circumstance_n for_o it_o be_v observable_a king_n charles_n two_o endeavour_v as_o much_o as_o he_o can_v to_o raise_v and_o keep_v up_o regular_a troop_n guard_n regiment_n and_o independent_a company_n and_o that_o king_n james_n when_o he_o have_v increase_v they_o choose_v rather_o to_o part_v with_o his_o parliament_n than_o with_o his_o regular_a troop_n and_o regiment_n which_o be_v in_o a_o great_a part_n near_o a_o establishment_n for_o it_o be_v conclude_v by_o argument_n late_o 7000_o man_n that_o be_v in_o king_n charles_n time_n for_o guard_n and_o garrison_n be_v not_o now_o sufficient_a though_o they_o make_v another_o figure_n for_o its_o thought_n 120000l_o pay_v they_o annual_o then_o and_o it_o appear_v the_o government_n allow_v 300000l_o for_o the_o annual_a payment_n of_o these_o 7000_o who_o must_v be_v increase_v twice_o 7_o in_o a_o few_o year_n more_o if_o the_o militia_n be_v not_o improve_v for_o it_o be_v not_o 20000_o man_n in_o regular_a stand_a discipline_n that_o be_v sufficient_a for_o our_o security_n if_o the_o argument_n be_v true_a that_o our_o neighbour_n be_v so_o formidable_a and_o likely_a to_o invade_v we_o by_o which_o argument_n i_o do_v think_v they_o have_v be_v come_v but_o god_n be_v praise_v i_o neither_o see_v nor_o hear_v of_o their_o come_n now_o i_o hope_v its_o the_o noise_n or_o discourse_n of_o our_o militia_n that_o do_v something_o discourage_v they_o who_o if_o they_o be_v make_v useful_a will_v be_v certain_o our_o safeguard_n but_o when_o that_o will_v be_v i_o dare_v not_o venture_v to_o say_v for_o it_o be_v a_o rational_a business_n and_o require_v time_n to_o effect_v it_o but_o if_o it_o be_v only_o talk_v of_o never_o go_v about_o it_o be_v not_o to_o be_v accomplish_v it_o be_v like_a propagation_n which_o must_v first_o have_v copulation_n and_o then_o lie_v form_v near_o 12_o month_n in_o the_o womb_n before_o it_o creep_v or_o crawl_v out_o to_o view_v and_o then_o some_o time_n before_o it_o find_v motion_n and_o can_v go_v and_o then_o some_o year_n before_o it_o come_v to_o maturity_n but_o better_a late_o than_o never_o therefore_o i_o humble_o offer_v in_o write_v what_o i_o have_v be_v long_o loath_a to_o come_v unto_o desire_v rather_o to_o have_v propose_v and_o explain_v myself_o by_o discourse_n for_o i_o solemn_o protest_v i_o do_v not_o think_v myself_o proper_o qualify_v for_o such_o a_o penman_n as_o be_v fit_a to_o appear_v in_o print_n but_o it_o be_v the_o sincere_a affection_n i_o have_v for_o my_o country_n that_o have_v prompt_v i_o to_o form_v my_o notion_n into_o two_o scheme_n the_o first_o your_o lordship_n have_v already_o view_v of_o number_n and_o charge_n the_o other_o i_o humble_o present_v here_o which_o i_o hearty_o wish_v may_v prove_v worth_a the_o pain_n of_o your_o honour_n view_n and_o consideration_n it_o be_v no_o new_a project_n chimaera_n or_o capricio_n it_o be_v but_o the_o effect_n of_o the_o study_n which_o i_o think_v my_o duty_n when_o i_o have_v the_o honour_n to_o be_v in_o the_o honourable_a house_n of_o commons_o as_o a_o representative_a of_o the_o city_n of_o litchfield_n in_o king_n jame_n parliament_n when_o that_o honourable_a house_n of_o commons_o be_v as_o warm_a and_o zealous_a for_o lessen_v the_o army_n they_o have_v consent_v shall_v be_v raise_v as_o this_o or_o the_o last_o year_n have_v be_v though_o that_o army_n be_v but_o a_o handful_n of_o man_n then_o or_o very_o small_a to_o what_o this_o be_v late_o i_o remember_v very_o well_o i_o be_v behind_o a_o eminent_a eloquent_a lordly_a estate_a member_n then_o and_o be_v the_o same_o now_o who_o say_v there_o in_o a_o debate_n for_o disband_v the_o army_n what_o shall_v it_o be_v say_v that_o we_o who_o be_v in_o a_o island_n in_o a_o great_a measure_n guard_v by_o god_n providence_n do_v that_o which_o no_o part_n of_o the_o world_n do_v tho_o upon_o the_o continent_n establish_v a_o stand_a army_n and_o a_o army_n that_o be_v pick_v up_o in_o the_o street_n to_o this_o there_o be_v no_o direct_a reply_n though_o i_o confess_v i_o think_v the_o last_o expression_n haughty_a and_o possible_o that_o worthy_a member_n do_v not_o at_o that_o time_n consider_v that_o many_o of_o the_o great_a nobility_n and_o quality_n in_o england_n be_v in_o that_o army_n and_o i_o do_v believe_v the_o nobility_n and_o gentry_n of_o england_n never_o put_v themselves_o under_o command_n and_o into_o arm_n so_o ready_o and_o willing_o as_o they_o do_v into_o that_o small_a army_n comparative_a to_o what_o have_v be_v since_o to_o this_o warm_a expression_n the_o chief_a reply_n be_v by_o a_o member_n of_o excellent_a part_n also_o who_o be_v now_o also_o of_o that_o house_n but_o i_o think_v beyond_o sea_n who_o move_v that_o the_o army_n may_v be_v continue_v till_o the_o militia_n be_v make_v useful_a then_o the_o house_n go_v upon_o proposition_n for_o make_v the_o militia_n useful_a whereupon_o it_o be_v my_o good_a fortune_n for_o the_o house_n be_v please_v to_o hear_v i_o to_o say_v time_n be_v a_o necessary_a ingredient_n for_o the_o exercise_v and_o make_v of_o soldier_n and_o that_o fourteen_o day_n in_o the_o year_n be_v too_o short_a and_o straight_o a_o time_n for_o bring_v man_n into_o order_n and_o exercise_n so_o much_o of_o the_o time_n be_v spend_v in_o come_v and_o go_v and_o then_o i_o be_v allow_v to_o propose_v 20_o 24_o or_o 28._o and_o then_o the_o house_n do_v allow_v the_o enlarge_n of_o time_n to_o 28_o day_n i_o do_v not_o recite_v this_o out_o of_o ostentation_n to_o show_v the_o honour_n and_o favour_n i_o have_v at_o that_o time_n but_o to_o demonstrate_v it_o be_v no_o new_a thing_n if_o the_o parliament_n shall_v think_v fit_a to_o do_v something_o like_o these_o follow_a proposition_n which_o have_v be_v offer_v then_o if_o the_o parliament_n have_v continue_v but_o the_o discourse_n and_o argument_n then_o for_o disband_v the_o army_n be_v suppose_v to_o be_v the_o chief_a cause_n for_o the_o break_n up_o the_o parliament_n for_o as_o i_o remember_v 700000l_o be_v vote_v to_o be_v give_v and_o some_o step_n be_v make_v towards_o the_o raise_n of_o it_o but_o rather_o than_o the_o king_n will_v part_v with_o his_o army_n or_o popish_a officer_n and_o servant_n he_o then_o slight_v the_o money_n and_o part_v with_o the_o parliament_n this_o i_o confess_v be_v a_o little_a digressive_a from_o that_o i_o promise_v which_o demonstrate_v like_o a_o maiden_n blush_v that_o i_o be_o afraid_a to_o come_v to_o but_o out_o it_o must_v come_v however_o it_o succeed_v in_o the_o first_o place_n i_o humble_o propose_v to_o lessen_v the_o number_n of_o foot_n one_o half_a or_o more_o and_o a_o little_a increase_n the_o number_n of_o horse_n as_o thus_o the_o compute_v number_n of_o foot_n be_v 8439._o which_o i_o will_v reduce_v to_o 40000_o officer_n inclusive_a the_o horse_n be_v 7400_o i_o will_v increase_v they_o to_o 8000_o officer_n inclusive_a now_o with_o submission_n or_o allowance_n i_o will_v proceed_v to_o computation_n of_o pay_n for_o 48000_o horse_n and_o foot_n for_o the_o 40000_o foot_n officer_n inclusive_a i_o will_v propose_v
