through_o the_o presumption_n of_o favour_n and_o friendship_n than_o any_o irish_a dare_v eudox._n then_o if_o that_o be_v so_o i_o think_v your_o late_a advisement_n be_v very_o evil_a whereby_o you_o wish_v the_o irish_a to_o be_v sow_v and_o sprinkle_v with_o english_a and_o in_o all_o the_o irish_a country_n to_o have_v english_a plant_v among_o they_o for_o to_o bring_v they_o to_o

the_o great_a number_n will_v carry_v away_o the_o less_o therefore_o i_o think_v by_o this_o reason_n it_o shall_v be_v better_a to_o part_v the_o irish_a and_o english_a then_o to_o mingle_v they_o

since_o ireland_n be_v full_a of_o her_o own_o nation_n that_o ought_v not_o to_o be_v root_v out_o and_o somewhat_o store_v with_o english_a already_o and_o more_o to_o be_v i_o think_v it_o best_o by_o a_o union_n of_o manner_n and_o conformity_n of_o mind_n to_o bring_v they_o to_o be_v one_o people_n and_o to_o put_v away_o the_o dislikefull_a conceit_n both_o of_o the_o one_o and_o the_o
