out_o of_o hope_n to_o prevent_v blood_n and_o mischief_n and_o partly_o to_o show_v yourselves_o friend_n to_o england_n out_o of_o hope_n to_o prevent_v the_o utter_a ruin_n of_o this_o your_o

accept_v the_o offer_n of_o your_o interposition_n you_o seem_v to_o complain_v that_o you_o have_v no_o certitude_n or_o likelihood_n to_o be_v accept_v by_o the_o parliament_n you_o do_v not_o nevertheless_o declare_v what_o that_o interposition_n be_v which_o the_o king_n admit_v or_o the_o parliament_n deny_v for_o if_o the_o king_n do_v whole_o refer_v his_o cause_n to_o your_o umpirage_n it_o be_v necessary_a that_o you_o plain_o make_v this_o know_v to_o the_o parliament_n and_o if_o the_o king_n receive_v you_o no_o further_o than_o as_o friendly_a intercessor_n to_o entreat_v or_o persuade_v in_o this_o he_o do_v no_o more_o than_o the_o parliament_n do_v but_o you_o conceive_v the_o king_n offer_v enough_o assurance_n for_o the_o evangelique-protestant_a

from_o all_o protestant_a country_n shall_v attribute_v more_o to_o your_o judgement_n herein_o then_o to_o themselves_o true_o this_o seem_v to_o we_o something_o too_o unequal_a and_o we_o much_o doubt_v whether_o his_o majesty_n be_v so_o full_o resolve_v to_o resign_v up_o himself_o and_o all_o his_o pretence_n in_o the_o point_n of_o religion_n to_o your_o final_a decision_n you_o further_o seem_v confident_a that_o his_o majesty_n will_v satisfy_v other_o when_o he_o be_v himself_o satisfy_v concerning_o his_o prerogative_n and_o our_o liberty_n but_o this_o may_v be_v perhaps_o because_o you_o do_v not_o so_o experimental_o understand_v what_o be_v likely_a to_o satisfy_v the_o king_n as_o the_o best_a and_o wise_a of_o his_o two_o protestant_a kingdom_n do_v the_o king_n intention_n be_v know_v either_o by_o his_o profession_n or_o action_n as_o for_o his_o profession_n we_o know_v they_o be_v and_o ever_o be_v very_o gracious_a but_o whatsoever_o expression_n he_o may_v make_v to_o you_o in_o your_o particular_a he_o can_v promise_v a_o great_a affection_n to_o religion_n and_o justice_n than_o the_o parliament_n do_v and_o as_o for_o the_o king_n action_n we_o will_v glad_o be_v instruct_v by_o you_o but_o we_o can_v apprehend_v ourselves_o less_o judicious_a in_o they_o then_o any_o stranger_n whatsoever_o when_o your_o state_n be_v former_o in_o
