prudent_a letter_n to_o the_o bishop_n of_o london_n and_o the_o other_o bishop_n for_o that_o belong_v to_o they_o to_o do_v but_o this_o i_o will_v say_v though_o it_o make_v the_o ear_n of_o all_o

already_o on_o that_o subject_a so_o i_o hope_v the_o fair_a admonition_n which_o our_o own_o experience_n have_v already_o give_v we_o will_v make_v it_o needless_a and_o therefore_o without_o further_a reflection_n upon_o what_o be_v past_a we_o be_v now_o to_o look_v forward_o what_o be_v now_o to_o be_v do_v and_o what_o be_v those_o good_a and_o effectual_a mean_n to_o set_v we_o free_a from_o this_o impedited_a and_o enchant_a condition_n and_o the_o first_o thing_n to_o be_v do_v be_v to_o lay_v a_o good_a foundation_n to_o secure_v the_o favour_n and_o blessing_n of_o the_o divine_a providence_n which_o alone_o can_v make_v all_o go_v on_o prosperous_a and_o smooth_a and_o very_o successful_a but_o without_o it_o all_o other_o the_o most_o proper_a mean_n that_o can_v be_v propose_v will_v still_o prove_v ineffectual_a and_o abortive_a and_o be_v retard_v with_o perpetual_a cross_a accident_n and_o disappointment_n nay_o prove_v themselves_o occasion_n of_o mischief_n and_o this_o in_o truth_n have_v be_v our_o case_n whether_o it_o have_v be_v understand_v or_o not_o from_o our_o first_o attempt_n of_o reduce_v ireland_n miscarriage_n in_o person_n employ_v and_o entrust_v i_o easy_o allow_v to_o be_v the_o immediate_a cause_n but_o it_o be_v a_o superficial_a inspection_n that_o can_v see_v no_o far_o into_o the_o matter_n the_o original_a cause_n lie_v a_o step_n or_o two_o far_a back_o but_o we_o be_v here_o only_o to_o look_v forward_o therefore_o in_o short_a the_o only_a true_a way_n to_o obtain_v or_o secure_v the_o favour_n and_o blessing_n of_o god_n be_v to_o remove_v the_o curse_a thing_n which_o have_v all_o this_o while_n interpose_v and_o withhold_v they_o from_o we_o and_o it_o must_v be_v begin_v by_o a_o speedy_a resolute_a and_o effectual_a reformation_n of_o the_o great_a impiety_n and_o wickedness_n of_o the_o nation_n and_o this_o must_v be_v begin_v by_o the_o king_n himself_o and_o in_o another_o manner_n than_o be_v yet_o do_v his_o letter_n to_o the_o bishop_n be_v a_o good_a and_o pious_a letter_n but_o what_o good_a it_o have_v do_v i_o know_v not_o the_o bishop_n i_o know_v talk_v of_o other_o letter_n also_o of_o their_o own_o but_o i_o see_v they_o not_o or_o any_o good_a effect_n of_o either_o but_o the_o king_n have_v a_o civil_a power_n which_o must_v be_v exert_v it_o be_v his_o office_n and_o duty_n to_o see_v the_o law_n due_o execute_v and_o when_o he_o find_v that_o neglect_a to_o send_v out_o his_o special_a command_n to_o require_v and_o enjoin_v the_o due_a execution_n of_o they_o and_o to_o punish_v or_o displace_v such_o as_o be_v negligent_a and_o remiss_a and_o put_v other_o in_o their_o place_n who_o will_v more_o faithful_o discharge_v their_o duty_n it_o be_v his_o duty_n also_o to_o recommend_v to_o the_o parliament_n to_o make_v further_a provision_n for_o such_o law_n as_o he_o find_v want_v to_o supply_v the_o defect_n of_o those_o we_o have_v already_o and_o it_o be_v likewise_o his_o duty_n as_o well_o as_o his_o wisdom_n to_o encourage_v virtue_n and_o piety_n and_o discountenance_v vice_n and_o wickedness_n by_o the_o dispensation_n of_o his_o favour_n and_o demonstration_n of_o his_o displeasure_n according_o all_o this_o be_v most_o certain_o his_o duty_n and_o if_o he_o do_v not_o faithful_o discharge_v it_o both_o to_o god_n and_o to_o the_o nation_n he_o can_v expect_v either_o the_o blessing_n of_o god_n or_o the_o faithful_a concurrence_n of_o the_o people_n with_o he_o but_o because_o i_o find_v no_o reason_n to_o doubt_v of_o his_o own_o good_a inclination_n to_o so_o good_a a_o work_n i_o see_v but_o two_o thing_n further_o necessary_a to_o be_v note_v to_o this_o purpose_n the_o one_o that_o he_o beware_v of_o and_o banish_v from_o his_o presence_n such_o person_n especial_o clergyman_n as_o he_o have_v find_v either_o evil_a counsellor_n or_o false_a guide_n in_o a_o matter_n of_o so_o apparent_a duty_n and_o great_a importance_n to_o himself_o and_o the_o nation_n the_o other_o that_o he_o likewise_o beware_v and_o to_o that_o purpose_n give_v encouragement_n to_o faithful_a information_n that_o he_o partake_v not_o in_o the_o sin_n of_o the_o late_a king_n by_o set_v up_o notorious_a example_n of_o vice_n and_o wickedness_n in_o honour_n or_o great_a place_n and_o upon_o this_o occasion_n i_o can_v but_o take_v notice_n of_o what_o i_o have_v be_v tell_v by_o one_o who_o say_v he_o be_v present_a that_o two_o of_o the_o principal_a officer_n of_o our_o fleet_n who_o
