man_n relate_v to_o our_o liberty_n so_o they_o may_v be_v please_v to_o take_v another_o along_o with_o they_o for_o our_o honour_n for_o it_o seem_v if_o a_o man_n be_v imprison_v or_o accuse_v by_o

that_o a_o exact_a account_n may_v have_v be_v give_v in_o print_n without_o leave_v it_o to_o the_o liberty_n of_o every_o man_n to_o add_v and_o diminish_v as_o he_o please_v such_o inconvenience_n as_o these_o will_v ever_o follow_v hasty_a counsel_n which_o therefore_o ought_v to_o be_v avoid_v if_o they_o be_v not_o the_o injury_n will_v at_o one_o time_n or_o another_o be_v repay_v with_o

so_o there_o be_v the_o great_a reason_n for_o it_o in_o this_o parliament_n which_o last_v too_o long_o to_o the_o ruin_n of_o many_o gentleman_n of_o small_a estate_n who_o be_v member_n of_o it_o the_o custom_n of_o take_v wage_n be_v then_o whole_o lay_v aside_o and_o as_o this_o tend_v to_o make_v they_o odious_a to_o the_o people_n so_o it_o reflect_v upon_o his_o majesty_n and_o

but_o to_o show_v what_o injury_n may_v and_o will_v happen_v as_o often_o as_o that_o great_a body_n act_n with_o too_o much_o warmth_n and_o how_o difficult_a it_o be_v to_o redress_v what_o may_v
