condition_n as_o it_o be_v before_o beside_o his_o majesty_n think_v it_o ought_v to_o be_v consider_v that_o when_o the_o charge_n of_o the_o war_n be_v at_o the_o high_a the_o inevitable_a effect_n of_o it_o and_o those_o other_o calamity_n which_o it_o please_v god_n at_o that_o time_n to_o bring_v upon_o we_o do_v make_v so_o great_a a_o diminution_n in_o his_o revenue_n that_o beside_o all_o

the_o plague_n and_o the_o fire_n do_v amount_v to_o little_a les●_n than_o six_o hundred_o thousand_o pound_n thus_o you_o see_v that_o though_o your_o supply_n have_v be_v great_a yet_o the_o

complain_v of_o have_v be_v contract_v by_o the_o war_n and_o not_o by_o the_o diversion_n of_o the_o money_n design_v for_o it_o his_o majesty_n have_v command_v i_o to_o say_v one_o thing_n more_o to_o you_o upon_o this_o subject_a that_o he_o do_v not_o enter_v into_o this_o war_n upon_o any_o private_a inclination_n or_o appetite_n of_o his_o own_o the_o first_o step_n he_o make_v towards_o

you_o to_o relieve_v he_o from_o it_o and_o the_o rather_o when_o you_o shall_v serious_o consider_v how_o uneasy_a this_o burden_n must_v be_v to_o he_o and_o what_o ill_a consequence_n the_o

so_o speedy_o and_o so_o effectual_o as_o may_v answer_v the_o end_n for_o which_o he_o have_v desire_v it_o his_o majesty_n have_v further_a command_v i_o to_o put_v you_o in_o mind_n of_o what_o
