the_o whole_a kingdom_n how_o faithful_o and_o zealous_o we_o have_v behave_v ourselves_o in_o the_o service_n of_o king_n and_o parliament_n and_o we_o leave_v all_o the_o world_n to_o judge_v how_o

to_o remove_v all_o mistake_n and_o misunderstanding_n betwixt_o king_n and_o people_n we_o shall_v not_o stand_v to_o rehearse_v all_o the_o covenant_n vow_n and_o protestation_n put_v upon_o we_o by_o the_o parliament_n for_o the_o maintenance_n of_o the_o protestant_n religion_n the_o king_n honour_n person_n and_o estate_n the_o privilege_n of_o parliament_n and_o the_o establish_a know_a

that_o we_o be_v likely_a to_o be_v worse_o enslave_v by_o a_o company_n who_o behave_v themselves_o like_o the_o turkish_a janisary_n in_o impose_v tax_n on_o our_o estate_n and_o force_v our_o
