liberty_n by_o rebellious_a action_n yet_o you_o may_v be_v deceive_v and_o in_o the_o end_n thrust_v yourselves_o in_o absolute_a slavery_n but_o it_o seem_v you_o have_v rather_o be_v base_a slave_n than_o loyal_a subject_n or_o else_o you_o will_v not_o be_v so_o apt_a to_o mutiny_n as_o you_o be_v yet_o if_o you_o once_o rebel_n i_o will_v endeavour_v to_o destroy_v every_o man_n that_o

will_v not_o be_v ruin_v alone_o but_o the_o ruin_n of_o the_o whole_a kingdom_n shall_v accompany_v i_o a_o recantation_n of_o the_o poor_a petition_v subject_n most_o dread_a sovereign_n your_o most_o sorrowful_a and_o poor_a petition_v subject_n hear_v your_o majesty_n be_v displease_v at_o their_o complaint_n and_o angry_a with_o they_o for_o come_v in_o a_o company_n together_o implore_v

grieve_v for_o than_o for_o any_o other_o affliction_n that_o can_v come_v either_o upon_o their_o life_n body_n good_n wife_n or_o child_n for_o they_o do_v assure_v your_o majesty_n and_o call_v

suffer_v they_o will_v never_o have_v complain_v and_o rather_o have_v starve_v or_o endure_v any_o torment_n than_o oppose_v your_o majesty_n in_o any_o thing_n and_o if_o your_o majesty_n think_v their_o ignorant_a fault_n be_v beyond_o a_o pardon_n they_o be_v ready_a and_o willing_a to_o endure_v any_o punishment_n or_o to_o die_v at_o your_o majesty_n command_n repent_v subject_n to_o their_o sovereign_n most_o gracious_a sovereign_n we_o your_o most_o penitent_a subject_n crave_v pardon_n for_o our_o fault_n not_o only_o with_o tear_n in_o our_o eye_n but_o sorrow_n in_o our_o

your_o mercy_n and_o last_o for_o our_o pardon_n to_o be_v not_o only_o your_o majesty_n loyal_a subject_n but_o loyal_a slave_n and_o since_o there_o be_v no_o man_n so_o perfect_a but_o be_v subject_a to_o offend_v and_o not_o in_o light_n or_o small_a offence_n but_o great_a and_o grievous_a as_o not_o only_o against_o man_n and_o man_n or_o against_o nature_n but_o against_o god_n himself_o we_o hope_v your_o majesty_n will_v consider_v our_o frail_a nature_n and_o will_v rather_o blame_v nature_n for_o make_v we_o so_o than_o we_o for_o be_v so_o but_o since_o repentance_n be_v the_o way_n to_o forgiveness_n and_o absolution_n follow_v contrition_n we_o with_o contrite_a heart_n and_o humble_a spirit_n crave_v your_o mercy_n a_o king_n speech_n to_o his_o good_a subject_n my_o belove_a and_o most_o love_a subject_n for_o so_o you_o be_v i_o have_v require_v your_o assemble_v together_o that_o i_o may_v see_v you_o and_o you_o i_o for_o i_o do_v not_o love_n to_o be_v as_o a_o stranger_n to_o my_o subject_n nor_o i_o will_v not_o have_v my_o subject_n as_o stranger_n to_o i_o and_o if_o it_o be_v possible_a i_o will_v be_v acquaint_v with_o their_o face_n degree_n quality_n and_o profession_n and_o not_o only_o be_v their_o king_n but_o their_o friend_n not_o to_o govern_v they_o in_o general_n but_o to_o counsel_n and_o advise_v in_o particular_n indeed_o i_o have_v reason_n to_o give_v you_o often_o public_a visit_n as_o also_o public_a thanks_o for_o your_o loyalty_n and_o love_n for_o your_o obedience_n seem_v such_o as_o you_o seem_v to_o watch_n for_o my_o command_n and_o your_o love_n be_v such_o as_o you_o seem_v to_o prefer_v my_o safety_n before_o your_o own_o life_n and_o my_o pleasure_n before_o your_o own_o profit_n in_o so_o much_o as_o you_o seem_v you_o do_v desire_v only_o to_o live_v to_o serve_v i_o for_o which_o i_o thank_v the_o god_n for_o make_v i_o so_o happy_a to_o be_v a_o king_n of_o such_o subject_n who_o only_a strife_n be_v for_o my_o favour_n who_o be_v ambitious_a only_o for_o my_o fame_n and_o take_v a_o pride_n in_o my_o glory_n who_o valour_n enlarge_v my_o dominion_n who_o industry_n enrich_v my_o treasury_n who_o delight_n be_v my_o pleasure_n who_o love_n protect_v my_o person_n and_o who_o prayer_n be_v for_o my_o health_n and_o long_a life_n i_o can_v only_o say_v that_o your_o loyalty_n obedience_n and_o love_n be_v not_o to_o a_o king_n that_o do_v not_o regard_v it_o nor_o to_o a_o tyrant_n that_o have_v rather_o be_v fear_v than_o love_v but_o assure_v yourselves_o my_o affection_n to_o my_o people_n be_v such_o as_o a_o fond_a father_n to_o his_o only_a son_n who_o have_v rather_o die_v for_o his_o son_n good_a than_o live_v to_o his_o own_o pleasure_n and_o that_o all_o the_o endeavour_n of_o his_o life_n be_v for_o his_o sake_n as_o to_o make_v his_o son_n rich_a noble_a and_o powerful_a that_o he_o may_v have_v respect_n renown_n and_o fame_n among_o stranger_n the_o like_a do_v i_o for_o my_o subject_n indeed_o a_o king_n be_v the_o common_a father_n of_o his_o people_n and_o i_o rejoice_v to_o see_v you_o as_o a_o love_a father_n do_v his_o child_n and_o so_o i_o pray_v the_o god_n to_o bless_v you_o speech_n of_o die_a person_n part_n vii_o a_o king_n die_v speech_n to_o his_o noble_a subject_n faithfull_n counselor_n just_a magistrate_n love_v friend_n noble_a man_n and_o loyal_a subject_n you_o see_v i_o here_o death_n prisoner_n yet_o though_o i_o must_v part_v with_o my_o subject_n they_o shall_v not_o part_v with_o their_o sovereign_n for_o i_o shall_v leave_v they_o a_o king_n though_o i_o die_v i_o have_v be_v your_o crown_v king_n this_o thirty_o year_n a_o heavy_a weight_n and_o a_o long_a time_n of_o trouble_n but_o a_o king_n have_v more_o title_n than_o power_n and_o more_o power_n than_o pleasure_n for_o be_v all_o his_o subject_n slave_n and_o all_o do_v obey_v his_o will_n yet_o to_o order_n and_o govern_v they_o to_o his_o will_n require_v pain_n care_n and_o study_v but_o my_o desire_n and_o will_n be_v to_o make_v my_o subject_n happy_a to_o which_o end_n i_o bend_v all_o my_o industry_n the_o which_o i_o wish_v my_o successor_n may_v do_v the_o like_a for_o good_a subject_n deserve_v a_o good_a sovereign_n indeed_o all_o good_a subject_n have_v not_o at_o all_o time_n good_a sovereign_n nor_o all_o good_a sovereign_n good_a subject_n for_o all_o sovereign_n be_v not_o wise_a nor_o all_o subject_n loyal_a for_o though_o good_a man_n make_v good_a subject_n yet_o good_a man_n do_v not_o always_o make_v good_a sovereign_n as_o be_v not_o piety_n nor_o moral_a honesty_n that_o make_v good_a king_n but_o industry_n observation_n understanding_n judgement_n wit_n prudence_n and_o courage_n that_o make_v king_n wise_a ruler_n also_o counsel_n experience_n and_o practice_n which_o make_v a_o old_a king_n a_o better_a governor_n than_o a_o young_a king_n and_o yet_o all_o subject_n for_o the_o most_o part_n grow_v weary_a with_o their_o sovereign_n age_n and_o so_o consequent_o with_o their_o own_o happiness_n but_o their_o folly_n and_o ingratitude_n be_v often_o punish_v in_o have_v their_o desire_n indeed_o most_o of_o mankind_n through_o ignorance_n and_o inconstancy_n desire_v their_o own_o hurt_a which_o when_o they_o feel_v they_o be_v displease_v with_o the_o god_n for_o grant_v that_o they_o be_v earnest_a with_o the_o god_n to_o give_v they_o so_o that_o they_o be_v seldom_o content_v but_o i_o wish_v they_o may_v have_v good_a
