A57287	Scotland's grievances relating to Darien &c., humbly offered to the consideration of the Parliament	Ridpath, George, d. 1726.	1700 (1700)	Wing R1464; ESTC R1580	53,913	60

none_o but_o scotsmen_n be_v consult_v in_o our_o affair_n it_o be_v also_o requisite_a that_o our_o parliament_n shall_v have_v the_o choose_v and_o swear_v of_o the_o privy_a councillor_n as_o our_o

may_v we_o hope_v that_o our_o arcana_fw-la imperii_fw-la shall_v not_o be_v betray_v to_o our_o enemy_n and_o that_o the_o affair_n of_o our_o church_n and_o state_n shall_v not_o be_v manage_v by_o the_o capriccio_n of_o favourite_n english_a courtier_n or_o prelate_n who_o improve_n the_o opportunity_n they_o have_v to_o debauch_v covetous_a necessitous_a or_o weak_a minister_n that_o attend_v our_o affair_n sometime_o at_o the_o court_n of_o england_n make_v they_o the_o instrument_n of_o ruine_v our_o country_n that_o this_o be_v no_o groundless_a suggestion_n will_v appear_v but_o too_o plain_a if_o our_o parliament_n think_v fit_a to_o inquire_v into_o the_o truth_n of_o that_o report_n that_o a_o spanish_a consul_n at_o jamaica_n shall_v have_v generous_o tell_v some_o of_o our_o caledonian_n there_o that_o we_o be_v betray_v by_o one_o of_o our_o country_n man_n that_o be_v entrust_v with_o our_o affair_n at_o court_n and_o perhaps_o it_o may_v yet_o appear_v more_o plain_a if_o they_o inquire_v whether_o any_o of_o our_o own_o secretary_n know_v of_o the_o west_n india_n proclamation_n against_o our_o colony_n before_o they_o be_v issue_v as_o it_o be_v confident_o say_v the_o english_a secretary_n v_o n_z have_v give_v out_o that_o one_o of_o they_o do_v we_o have_v find_v by_o woeful_a experience_n that_o it_o be_v not_o safe_a to_o trust_v the_o management_n or_o representation_n of_o our_o affair_n to_o one_o or_o two_o man_n choose_v for_o that_o end_n at_o the_o discretion_n of_o the_o court_n of_o england_n therefore_o it_o seem_v high_o necessary_a that_o we_o shall_v be_v reinve_v with_o our_o native_a right_n of_o choose_v our_o own_o public_a officer_n ourselves_o or_o at_o least_o that_o none_o be_v advance_v to_o post_n either_o civil_a
