danger_n which_o come_v to_o the_o state_n by_o ill_a council_n be_v the_o most_o pernicious_a of_o all_o other_o and_o since_o it_o be_v usual_a to_o compare_v politic_a body_n with_o the_o natural_a the_o natural_a body_n be_v in_o danger_n divers_a way_n either_o by_o outward_a violence_n and_o that_o may_v be_v foresee_v and_o prevent_v or_o else_o by_o less_o appear_a malady_n which_o grow_v

disease_n which_o proceed_v from_o the_o inward_a part_n as_o the_o liver_n the_o heart_n or_o the_o brain_n the_o more_o noble_a part_n it_o be_v a_o hard_a thing_n to_o apply_v cure_n to_o such_o disease_n ill_a counsel_n they_o be_v of_o that_o nature_n for_o the_o mischief_n that_o come_v by_o evil_a council_n corrupt_v the_o vital_a part_n and_o overthrow_v the_o public_a government_n 2_o life_n 2_o if_o this_o have_v be_v apply_v to_o himself_o and_o his_o faction_n he_o never_o speak_v more_o truth_n in_o his_o whole_a life_n the_o second_o step_n be_v that_o there_o have_v be_v late_o and_o still_o be_v ill_a council_n in_o this_o kingdom_n and_o about_o the_o king_n 1_o that_o there_o have_v be_v late_o you_o will_v not_o doubt_v when_o the_o main_a course_n of_o the_o government_n have_v be_v so_o employ_v as_o popery_n thereby_o have_v be_v maintain_v the_o law_n subvert_v and_o no_o distinguish_v between_o justice_n and_o injustice_n and_o that_o there_o be_v still_o reason_n to_o doubt_v be_v apparent_a by_o the_o course_v take_v to_o advance_v mischievous_a design_n but_o that_o his_o majesty_n wisdom_n and_o goodness_n keep_v they_o from_o the_o heart_n though_o they_o be_v not_o keep_v out_o of_o the_o court_n so_o most_o principal_a and_o mischievous_a design_n have_v be_v practise_v by_o such_o as_o have_v near_o access_n unto_o his_o majesty_n though_o not_o to_o his_o heart_n and_o the_o apologist_n and_o promoter_n of_o ill_a counsel_n be_v still_o prefer_v 3_o the_o three_o step_n be_v that_o the_o ill_a counsel_n of_o this_o time_n be_v in_o their_o own_o nature_n more_o mischievous_a and_o more_o dangerous_a than_o the_o ill_a counsel_n of_o former_a time_n former_a counsel_n have_v be_v to_o please_v king_n in_o their_o vice_n innocence_n vice_n a_o remarkable_a testimony_n from_o a_o enemy_n of_o the_o king_n innocence_n from_o which_o our_o king_n be_v free_a and_o sometime_o for_o rack_a of_o the_o prerogative_n if_o it_o have_v go_v no_o further_o it_o have_v bring_v many_o misery_n but_o not_o ruin_n and_o destruction_n but_o the_o ill_a counsel_n of_o this_o time_n be_v destructive_a to_o religion_n and_o law_n by_o alter_v they_o both_o therefore_o more_o mischievous_a in_o their_o own_o nature_n than_o those_o of_o former_a time_n 4_o the_o four_o step_n be_v that_o these_o ill_a counsel_n have_v proceed_v from_o a_o spirit_n and_o inclination_n to_o popery_n and_o have_v have_v a_o dependence_n on_o popery_n and_o all_o of_o they_o tend_v to_o it_o the_o religion_n of_o the_o papist_n be_v a_o religion_n incompatible_a with_o any_o other_o religion_n destructive_a to_o all_o other_o and_o do_v not_o endure_v any_o thing_n that_o oppose_v it_o whosoever_o do_v withstand_v their_o religion_n if_o they_o have_v power_n they_o bring_v they_o to_o ruin_n there_o be_v other_o religion_n that_o be_v not_o right_a but_o not_o so_o destructive_a as_o popery_n be_v for_o the_o principle_n of_o popery_n be_v destructive_a to_o all_o state_n and_o person_n that_o oppose_v it_o with_o the_o progress_n of_o this_o mischievous_a council_n they_o provide_v counsellor_n fit_a instrument_n and_o organ_n that_o may_v execute_v their_o own_o design_n and_o to_o turn_v all_o council_n to_o their_o own_o end_n and_o you_o find_v that_o now_o in_o ireland_n that_o those_o design_n that_o have_v be_v upon_o all_o the_o three_o kingdom_n do_v end_n in_o a_o war_n for_o the_o maintenance_n of_o popery_n in_o ireland_n and_o will_v do_v the_o like_a here_o if_o they_o be_v able_a they_o be_v so_o intentive_a to_o turn_v all_o to_o their_o own_o advantage_n 5_o the_o five_o step_v that_o unless_o these_o ill_a council_n be_v change_v as_o long_o as_o they_o continue_v it_o be_v impossible_a that_o any_o assistance_n aid_n or_o advice_n that_o the_o parliament_n can_v take_v to_o reform_v will_v be_v effectual_a for_o the_o public_a order_n and_o law_n be_v but_o dead_a if_o not_o put_v in_o execution_n those_o that_o be_v the_o instrument_n of_o state_n they_o put_v thing_n into_o action_n but_o if_o act_v by_o evil_a man_n and_o while_o these_o counsel_n be_v on_o
