we_o and_o much_o danger_n prevent_v so_o it_o be_v worth_a the_o observe_n that_o this_o will_v bring_v loss_n and_o damage_n to_o no_o man_n but_o every_o one_o will_v be_v the_o better_a none_o i_o

more_o sweet_o enjoy_v their_o liberty_n and_o freedom_n and_o not_o be_v keep_v under_o by_o so_o lordly_a and_o arbitrary_a power_n as_o now_o they_o be_v for_o the_o great_a business_n of_o the_o

the_o person_n no_o doubt_n they_o be_v such_o as_o be_v not_o well-affected_n to_o either_o nation_n but_o desire_v the_o hurt_n of_o both_o hence_o it_o be_v that_o rome_n have_v her_o jesuit_n among_o you_o spain_n and_o france_n their_o boutesue_n or_o fling-fire_n the_o prince_n of_o orange_n his_o foction_n and_o the_o titular_a king_n of_o scotland_n his_o incendiary_n all_o which_o

have_v no_o inclination_n to_o peace_n that_o their_o demand_n be_v unreasonable_a and_o impossibility_n whereas_o no_o nation_n under_o heaven_n do_v more_o desirous_o desire_v amity_n than_o the_o
