of_o it_o unto_o which_o i_o must_v confess_v and_o acknowledge_v that_o you_o my_o lord_n of_o the_o high_a house_n do_v give_v i_o so_o will_v a_o ear_n and_o with_o such_o affection_n do_v show_v

neither_o your_o lordship_n fault_n nor_o i_o that_o it_o be_v not_o so_o therefore_o in_o the_o first_o place_n i_o must_v give_v your_o lordship_n thanks_o for_o your_o good_a endeavour_n i_o hope_v you_o remember_v what_o my_o lord_n keeper_n say_v to_o you_o the_o first_o day_n of_o the_o parliament_n in_o my_o name_n what_o likewise_o he_o say_v in_o the_o banqueting-house_n in_o whitehall_n and_o what_o i_o late_o say_v to_o you_o in_o this_o place_n myself_o i_o name_v all_o this_o unto_o you_o not_o in_o doubt_n that_o you_o do_v not_o well_o remember_v it_o but_o to_o show_v you_o that_o i_o never_o say_v any_o thing_n in_o way_n of_o favour_n to_o my_o people_n but_o that_o by_o the_o grace_n of_o god_n i_o will_v punctual_o and_o real_o perform_v it_o i_o know_v that_o they_o have_v insist_v very_o much_o on_o grievance_n and_o i_o will_v not_o say_v but_o that_o there_o may_v be_v some_o though_o i_o will_v confident_o affirm_v that_o there_o be_v not_o by_o many_o

be_v as_o ready_a if_o not_o more_o willing_a to_o hear_v and_o redress_v any_o just_a grievance_n as_o in_o parliament_n there_o be_v one_o thing_n that_o be_v much_o speak_v of_o though_o not_o so_o much_o insist_v on_o as_o other_o and_o that_o be_v religion_n concerning_o which_o albeit_o i_o express_v myself_o full_o the_o last_o day_n in_o this_o place_n to_o your_o lordship_n yet_o i_o think_v it_o fit_v again_o on_o this_o occasion_n to_o tell_v you_o that_o as_o i_o be_o most_o concern_v so_o i_o shall_v be_v most_o careful_a to_o preserve_v that_o purity_n of_o religion_n which_o i_o thank_v god_n be_v so_o well_o establish_v in_o the_o church_n of_o england_n and_o that_o as_o well_o out_o as_o in_o parliament_n my_o lord_n i_o shall_v not_o trouble_v you_o long_o with_o word_n it_o be_v not_o my_o fashion_n wherefore_o to_o conclude_v what_o i_o offer_v the_o last_o day_n to_o the_o house_n of_o commons_o i_o think_v be_v well_o know_v to_o you_o all_o as_o likewise_o how_o they_o accept_v it_o which_o i_o desire_v not_o to_o remember_v but_o wish_v that_o they_o have_v remember_v how_o at_o first_o they_o be_v tell_v in_o my_o name_n by_o my_o lord_n keeper_n that_o delay_n be_v the_o worst_a kind_n of_o denial_n yet_o i_o will_v not_o lay_v this_o fault_n on_o the_o whole_a house_n for_o i_o will_v not_o judge_v so_o uncharitable_o of_o those_o who_o for_o the_o most_o part_n i_o take_v to_o be_v loyal_a and_o well-affected_a subject_n but_o that_o it_o have_v be_v the_o malicious_a cunning_n of_o some_o few_o seditiously-affected_a man_n that_o have_v be_v the_o cause_n of_o this_o misunderstand_n i_o shall_v now_o end_v as_o i_o begin_v in_o give_v your_o lordship_n thanks_o for_o your_o affection_n show_v to_o i_o at_o this_o time_n desire_v you_o to_o go_v on_o to_o assist_v i_o in_o the_o maintain_n of_o that_o regal_a power_n that_o be_v true_o i_o and_o as_o for_o the_o liberty_n of_o the_o people_n that_o they_o now_o so_o much_o seem_v to_o startle_v at_o know_v my_o lord_n that_o no_o king_n in_o the_o world_n shall_v be_v more_o careful_a to_o maintain_v they_o in_o the_o property_n of_o their_o good_n liberty_n of_o their_o person_n and_o true_a religion_n than_o i_o shall_v be_v and_o now_o my_o lord_n keeper_n do_v what_o i_o have_v command_v you_o then_o the_o lord_n keeper_n add_v my_o lord_n and_o you_o gentleman_n of_o the_o house_n of_o commons_o the_o king_n majesty_n do_v dissolve_v this_o parliament_n by_o all_o the_o proceed_n herein_o declare_v it_o be_v evident_a to_o all_o man_n how_o
