in_o mr._n fagel_n letter_n and_o how_o well_o that_o be_v receive_v and_o how_o civil_o it_o be_v answer_v all_o england_n see_v it_o be_v true_a the_o prince_n be_v very_o near_o relate_v to_o the_o king_n but_o there_o be_v other_o tie_v strong_a than_o the_o bond_n of_o flesh_n and_o blood_n he_o owe_v more_o to_o the_o protestant_a religion_n and_o to_o the_o nation_n than_o can_v be_v deface_v by_o any_o other_o relation_n whatsoever_o and_o if_o the_o fal_n in_o one_o relation_n excuse_n the_o other_o then_o enough_o may_v be_v say_v to_o show_v at_o what_o pain_n the_o court_n of_o england_n have_v be_v to_o free_v the_o prince_n from_o all_o other_o engagement_n except_o those_o of_o love_v enemy_n and_o do_v good_a to_o those_o who_o despiteful_o use_v we_o for_o upon_o this_o account_n the_o prince_n lie_v under_o all_o possible_a obligation_n 11._o the_o reflector_n think_v that_o those_o who_o leave_v ireland_n be_v drive_v by_o a_o needless_a fear_n but_o though_o he_o have_v no_o reason_n to_o apprehend_v much_o from_o the_o irish_a papist_n yet_o those_o who_o see_v the_o last_o bloody_a massacre_n may_v be_v forgive_v if_o they_o have_v no_o mind_n to_o see_v such_o another_o he_o faint_o blame_v that_o great_a change_n that_o be_v late_o make_v in_o the_o whole_a government_n of_o ireland_n but_o he_o present_o excuse_v it_o since_o it_o be_v natural_a for_o the_o king_n and_o his_o friend_n to_o desire_v to_o be_v safe_a some_o where_n till_o they_o have_v fair_a quarter_n in_o england_n they_o must_v make_v sure_a of_o ireland_n but_o he_o add_v that_o as_o soon_o as_o that_o be_v do_v the_o thing_n must_v have_v return_v into_o its_o old_a channel_n again_o this_o aught_o to_o be_v write_v only_o to_o irishman_n for_o none_o of_o a_o high_a size_n of_o understanding_n can_v bear_v it_o if_o it_o can_v ever_o be_v show_v that_o papist_n have_v yield_v up_o any_o thing_n which_o they_o have_v once_o wring_v out_o of_o the_o hand_n of_o protestant_n except_o when_o they_o be_v force_v to_o it_o we_o may_v believe_v this_o and_o all_o the_o other_o gross_a thing_n which_o be_v here_o impose_v on_o we_o the_o plain_a case_n be_v the_o papist_n resolve_v to_o destroy_v we_o and_o to_o put_v themselves_o in_o case_n to_o do_v it_o as_o soon_o as_o be_v possible_a so_o they_o go_v about_o it_o immediate_o in_o ireland_n only_o they_o have_v delay_v the_o give_v the_o signal_n for_o a_o new_a massacre_n till_o matter_n be_v ripe_a for_o it_o in_o england_n 12._o the_o reflector_n have_v reason_n to_o avoid_v the_o say_n any_o thing_n to_o the_o article_n of_o scotland_n for_o even_o his_o confidence_n can_v not_o support_v he_o in_o justify_v the_o king_n claim_v a_o absolute_a power_n to_o which_o all_o be_v bind_v to_o obey_v without_o reserve_n and_o the_o repeal_n of_o a_o great_a many_o law_n upon_o that_o pretention_n this_o be_v too_o gross_a for_o humane_a nature_n and_o the_o principle_n of_o all_o religion_n whatsoever_o our_o author_n avoid_v speak_v to_o it_o because_o he_o do_v not_o know_v the_o extent_n of_o the_o prerogative_n of_o that_o crown_n but_o no_o prerogative_n can_v go_v to_o a_o obedience_n without_o reserve_n nor_o can_v absolute_a power_n consist_v with_o any_o legal_a government_n 13._o the_o declaration_n have_v set_v forth_o that_o the_o evil_a counsellor_n have_v represent_v the_o expedient_a offer_v by_o the_o prince_n and_o princess_n as_o offer_v on_o design_n to_o disturb_v the_o quiet_a and_o happiness_n of_o the_o kingdom_n upon_o which_o the_o reflector_n bestow_v this_o kind_a remark_n on_o the_o ministry_n and_o do_v they_o not_o say_v true_a as_o it_o happen_v believe_v i_o some_o folk_n think_v many_o of_o they_o be_v not_o often_o guilty_a of_o such_o forelight_n the_o writer_n be_v angry_a that_o his_o side_n be_v not_o uppermost_a and_o though_o he_o include_v himself_o in_o the_o ministry_n by_o say_v we_o when_o he_o speak_v of_o they_o yet_o here_o though_o he_o be_v to_o censure_v the_o party_n that_o be_v against_o he_o he_o distinguish_v they_o by_o say_v many_o of_o the_o counsellor_n use_v not_o to_o have_v such_o foresight_n but_o perhaps_o they_o can_v object_v as_o much_o to_o his_o foresight_n and_o with_o as_o much_o reason_n but_o if_o the_o king_n come_v up_o to_o mr._n fagel_n letter_n why_o be_v it_o reject_v with_o so_o much_o scorn_n and_o answer_v with_o so_o much_o insolence_n now_o perhaps_o they_o will_v hearken_v to_o it_o when_o they_o have_v bring_v both_o themselves_o and_o the_o nation_n to_o the_o brink_n of_o ruin_n by_o their_o mad_a council_n but_o they_o ought_v to_o be_v forgive_v since_o they_o have_v be_v true_a to_o the_o principle_n and_o dictate_v of_o their_o religion_n 14._o our_o reflector_n think_v a_o free_a parliament_n a_o chimaera_n and_o indeed_o he_o and_o his_o friend_n have_v be_v at_o a_o great_a deal_n of_o pain_n to_o render_v it_o impossible_a but_o perhaps_o he_o may_v be_v quick_o cure_v of_o his_o error_n and_o a_o free_a one_o be_v the_o soon_o like_o to_o be_v choose_v when_o he_o and_o such_o as_o he_o be_v set_v at_o a_o due_a distance_n from_o the_o public_a council_n if_o member_n be_v sometime_o choose_v by_o drink_v and_o other_o practice_n this_o be_v bad_a enough_o but_o still_o it_o be_v not_o so_o bad_a as_o the_o lay_v a_o force_n upon_o the_o elector_n and_o a_o restraint_n upon_o the_o election_n nor_o be_v it_o very_o much_o to_o the_o king_n honour_n to_o remember_v how_o the_o last_o parliament_n be_v choose_v it_o be_v indeed_o a_o very_a digust_v essay_n in_o the_o begin_n of_o a_o reign_n and_o give_v a_o sad_a prospect_n of_o what_o may_v be_v look_v for_o but_o if_o one_o violence_n be_v bear_v with_o when_o the_o struggle_n of_o another_o party_n seem_v to_o excuse_v it_o this_o do_v not_o prove_v that_o a_o course_n of_o such_o violence_n when_o the_o design_n be_v become_v both_o more_o visible_a and_o less_o excusable_a aught_o to_o be_v endure_v if_o the_o member_n of_o that_o parliament_n prove_v worthy_a patriot_n i_o do_v not_o see_v why_o they_o ought_v not_o to_o be_v remember_v with_o honour_n though_o there_o be_v a_o great_a deal_n to_o be_v say_v upon_o their_o first_o elevation_n to_o that_o character_n which_o they_o maintain_v indeed_o noble_o so_o that_o if_o the_o first_o conception_n of_o the_o parliament_n be_v irregular_a yet_o its_o end_n be_v honourable_a since_o never_o a_o parliament_n be_v dissolve_v upon_o a_o more_o glorious_a account_n 15._o the_o reflector_n set_v up_o all_o his_o sail_n when_o he_o enter_v upon_o the_o article_n of_o the_o pretend_a prince_n of_o wales_n this_o be_v a_o point_n by_o which_o he_o hope_v to_o merit_v high_o and_o upon_o that_o to_o gain_v ground_n on_o that_o party_n of_o the_o court_n on_o who_o he_o have_v reflect_v with_o so_o much_o scorn_n therefore_o here_o must_v the_o prince_n be_v attack_v with_o all_o the_o malicious_a force_n to_o which_o his_o rhetoric_n can_v carry_v he_o and_o all_o those_o man_n of_o honour_n that_o go_v over_o to_o wait_v on_o he_o at_o the_o hague_n and_o to_o represent_v to_o he_o the_o bleed_a and_o desperate_a condition_n of_o the_o nation_n must_v be_v stigmatise_v as_o a_o lewd_a crew_n of_o renegado_n though_o i_o must_v tell_v he_o that_o the_o common_a acceptation_n of_o renegado_n be_v one_o that_o change_v his_o religion_n and_o by_o this_o he_o will_v find_v some_o near_o he_o to_o who_o that_o character_n belong_v more_o just_o he_o almost_o blame_v the_o king_n for_o the_o low_a step_v he_o late_o make_v to_o prove_v that_o birth_n it_o be_v a_o low_a one_o indeed_o to_o make_v so_o much_o ado_n and_o to_o bring_v together_o such_o a_o solemn_a appearance_n to_o hear_v so_o slight_a a_o proof_n produce_v which_o can_v have_v no_o other_o effect_n but_o to_o make_v the_o imposture_n so_o much_o the_o more_o visible_a when_o the_o utmost_a attempt_n to_o support_v it_o appear_v to_o be_v now_o so_o feeble_a that_o as_o to_o the_o main_a point_n of_o the_o queen_n bear_v the_o child_n there_o be_v not_o so_o much_o as_o a_o colour_n of_o a_o proof_n produce_v and_o it_o be_v certain_a that_o if_o this_o have_v be_v a_o fair_a thing_n the_o court_n will_v have_v so_o manage_v it_o that_o it_o shall_v not_o have_v be_v in_o the_o power_n of_o any_o mortal_a to_o have_v call_v it_o in_o question_n and_o on_o the_o other_o hand_n they_o have_v so_o manage_v it_o that_o one_o must_v needs_o see_v in_o every_o step_n of_o it_o broad_a mark_n of_o a_o imposture_n it_o will_v not_o be_v half_a proof_n nor_o suborn_a witness_n that_o will_v satisfy_v the_o nation_n in_o so_o great_a a_o point_n but_o i_o will_v
than_o myself_o so_o all_o the_o discovery_n that_o have_v be_v make_v of_o late_a year_n have_v be_v so_o far_o from_o asperse_v i_o that_o though_o there_o have_v be_v disposition_n enough_o to_o find_v fault_n with_o i_o yet_o there_o have_v not_o be_v matter_n give_v so_o much_o as_o for_o a_o examination_n it_o be_v now_o thirteen_o year_n since_o i_o come_v out_o of_o scotland_n and_o for_o these_o last_o five_o year_n i_o have_v not_o so_o much_o as_o mention_v the_o common_a news_n in_o any_o letter_n i_o have_v write_v to_o any_o in_o that_o kingdom_n i_o do_v not_o mention_v act_n of_o indemnity_n because_o i_o know_v that_o i_o do_v not_o need_v the_o benefit_n of_o they_o i_o go_v out_o of_o england_n by_o his_o majesty_n approbation_n and_o i_o have_v stay_v out_o of_o it_o because_o his_o majesty_n express_v his_o dislike_n of_o my_o return_v to_o it_o i_o be_o now_o upon_o the_o point_n of_o marry_v in_o this_o country_n and_o be_o naturalize_v by_o the_o state_n of_o holland_n but_o though_o by_o this_o during_o my_o stay_n here_o my_o allegiance_n be_v translate_v from_o his_o majesty_n to_o the_o sovereignty_n of_o this_o province_n yet_o i_o will_v never_o depart_v from_o the_o profound_a respect_n to_o his_o sacred_a person_n and_o duty_n to_o his_o government_n since_o my_o come_n into_o these_o part_n i_o have_v not_o see_v any_o one_o person_n either_o of_o scotland_n or_o england_n that_o be_v outlaw_v for_o treason_n and_o when_o the_o king_n take_v exception_n at_o the_o access_n i_o have_v to_o the_o prince_n and_o princess_n of_o orange_n there_o be_v not_o any_o thing_n of_o this_o kind_n then_o object_v to_o i_o so_o i_o protest_v unto_o your_o lordship_n i_o do_v not_o so_o much_o as_o imagine_v upon_o what_o it_o be_v that_o those_o information_n which_o it_o seem_v be_v bring_v to_o his_o majesty_n be_v found_v my_o lord_n as_o i_o be_o not_o ashamed_a of_o any_o thing_n i_o have_v do_v so_o i_o be_o not_o afraid_a of_o any_o thing_n that_o my_o enemy_n can_v do_v to_o i_o i_o can_v very_o easy_o part_v with_o a_o small_a estate_n and_o with_o a_o life_n of_o which_o i_o have_v be_v long_o weary_a and_o if_o my_o engagement_n in_o this_o country_n can_v dispense_v with_o it_o i_o will_v not_o avoid_v the_o come_n to_o stand_v my_o trial_n but_o as_o this_o can_v be_v expect_v in_o the_o state_n in_o which_o i_o be_o so_o i_o humble_o throw_v myself_o at_o his_o majesty_n foot_n and_o beg_v that_o he_o may_v not_o condemn_v i_o so_o much_o as_o in_o his_o thought_n till_o i_o know_v what_o be_v the_o crime_n that_o be_v object_v to_o i_o that_o so_o i_o may_v offer_v a_o most_o humble_a justification_n of_o myself_o to_o he_o i_o shall_v be_v infinite_o sorry_a if_o any_o judgement_n that_o may_v pass_v on_o i_o in_o scotland_n shall_v oblige_v i_o to_o appear_v in_o print_n in_o my_o own_o defence_n for_o i_o can_v betray_v my_o own_o innocence_n so_o far_o as_o to_o suffer_v a_o thing_n of_o this_o nature_n to_o pass_v upon_o i_o without_o print_v a_o apology_n for_o myself_o in_o which_o i_o will_v be_v force_v to_o make_v a_o recital_n of_o all_o that_o share_n that_o i_o have_v have_v in_o affair_n these_o twenty_o year_n past_a and_o in_o which_o i_o must_v mention_v a_o vast_a number_n of_o particular_n that_o i_o be_o afraid_a will_v be_v displease_v to_o his_o majesty_n and_o as_o i_o will_v look_v on_o this_o as_o one_o of_o the_o great_a misfortune_n that_o can_v possible_o befall_v i_o so_o with_o all_o the_o duty_n and_o humility_n in_o the_o world_n i_o beg_v i_o may_v not_o be_v drive_v to_o it_o i_o will_v not_o presume_v to_o add_v one_o word_n to_o your_o lordship_n nor_o to_o claim_v any_o sort_n of_o favour_n or_o protection_n from_o you_o
