miserable_o these_o man_n be_v mistake_v in_o their_o present_a notion_n they_o will_v now_o be_v glad_a withal_o their_o heart_n to_o see_v all_o those_o thing_n propose_v in_o the_o say_a book_n real_o and_o effectual_o accomplish_v for_o as_o double_a pawn_n be_v therein_o propose_v it_o will_v rather_o have_v fortify_v their_o wrack_n rend_v the_o more_o will_v have_v be_v the_o pity_n for_o the_o remain_a time_n of_o their_o lease_n than_o have_v impair_v or_o diminish_v which_o be_v their_o darling_n notion_n wherein_o they_o be_v so_o much_o in_o the_o dark_a any_o part_n or_o parcel_n thereof_o and_o therefore_o what_o shall_v a_o man_n say_v to_o these_o thing_n but_o only_o monstrum_fw-la horrendum_fw-la inform_v ingens_fw-la cvi_fw-la lumen_fw-la ademptum_fw-la and_o the_o truth_n of_o it_o be_v undigested_a principle_n and_o false_a notion_n as_o not_o be_v guide_v by_o reason_n once_o suck_v in_o have_v be_v in_o all_o age_n of_o most_o pernicious_a and_o dangerous_a consequence_n both_o to_o church_n and_o state_n so_o that_o now_o as_o brief_o as_o i_o can_v and_o as_o the_o matter_n will_v bear_v i_o have_v here_o give_v you_o the_o true_a state_n and_o present_a condition_n of_o these_o ancient_a leasee_n and_o as_o for_o their_o present_a design_n now_o on_o foot_n and_o so_o furious_o carry_v on_o withal_o the_o fair_a show_n and_o most_o specious_a pretence_n imaginable_a for_o lease_n of_o 21_o year_n although_o their_o argument_n for_o the_o same_o as_o i_o can_v easy_o make_v appear_v be_v but_o weak_a sophistical_a fallacious_a and_o of_o a_o dismal_a consequence_n the_o which_o look_v with_o so_o ugly_a and_o deform_v a_o countenance_n i_o hope_v the_o young_a man_n in_o the_o outward_a walk_n will_v wash_v their_o hand_n in_o innocency_n and_o will_v not_o desire_v to_o be_v of_o their_o counsel_n nor_o faction_n therein_o nor_o yet_o suffer_v themselves_o to_o be_v admit_v though_o it_o seem_v some_o of_o they_o have_v be_v court_v and_o invite_v thereunto_o because_o of_o go_v hand_n in_o hand_n to_o the_o grand_a committee_n to_o make_v their_o design_n more_o feiseable_a but_o they_o have_v hitherto_o have_v the_o grace_n to_o refuse_v themselves_o to_o be_v member_n of_o their_o private_a cabal_n and_o as_o for_o their_o tenant-rights_a so_o much_o insist_v upon_o and_o cry_v up_o among_o they_o as_o much_o as_o be_v the_o great_a diana_n of_o ephesus_n whereas_o in_o re_fw-la vera_fw-la after_o their_o lease_n be_v expire_v they_o have_v no_o more_o legal_a right_n or_o pretence_n thereunto_o as_o be_v your_o propriety_n and_o estate_n than_o a_o porter_n that_o go_v every_o day_n along_o the_o street_n with_o his_o burden_n at_o his_o back_n and_o here_o i_o will_v willing_o be_v inform_v by_o this_o honourable_a court_n of_o this_o one_o question_n viz_o who_o have_v the_o more_o legal_a and_o tenant-right_a in_o equity_n and_o good_a conscience_n to_o renew_v the_o lease_n of_o your_o say_a shop_n he_o that_o have_v pay_v a_o wrack_n rend_v of_o about_o 40_o or_o 50_o pound_n per_fw-la annum_fw-la for_o one_o single_a shop_n for_o 10_o or_o 20_o year_n together_o or_o he_o that_o have_v pay_v about_o 12_o or_o 14_o pound_n per_fw-la annum_fw-la for_o the_o same_o term_n and_o if_o you_o will_v not_o please_v to_o resolve_v i_o in_o this_o question_n pray_v let_v it_o be_v propound_v to_o the_o ancient_n leasee_v when_o they_o come_v next_o before_o you_o with_o their_o humble_a petition_n for_o lease_n of_o 21_o year_n more_o to_o give_v their_o answer_n thereunto_o and_o it_o be_v pray_v that_o their_o humble_a petition_n their_o tenant-rights_a and_o their_o 21_o year_n lease_n may_v out_o of_o your_o court_n be_v dismiss_v together_o and_o as_o for_o a_o abatement_n of_o their_o present_a rent_n it_o be_v my_o humble_a request_n unto_o this_o honourable_a court_n so_o long_o as_o they_o shall_v continue_v in_o actual_a possession_n that_o you_o will_v please_v to_o use_v they_o as_o kind_o as_o you_o can_v have_v dispatch_v the_o ancient_a leasee_n i_o come_v now_o to_o the_o poor_a sub-tenant_n which_o present_v themselves_o next_o in_o order_n and_o these_o i_o have_v place_v in_o the_o centre_n because_o we_o usual_o say_v in_o medio_fw-la consistit_fw-la virtus_fw-la so_o that_o i_o hope_v you_o will_v take_v special_a notice_n of_o they_o but_o by_o reason_n i_o have_v also_o make_v bold_a to_o present_v you_o with_o a_o humble_a petition_n in_o their_o behalf_n wherein_o their_o case_n likewise_o be_v fair_o and_o true_o state_v and_o have_v pray_v that_o you_o will_v please_v to_o take_v they_o into_o your_o particular_a care_n and_o protection_n i_o presume_v i_o need_v not_o trouble_v you_o much_o further_o in_o this_o place_n upon_o their_o account_n but_o only_o there_o be_v one_o very_o material_a objection_n and_o stumbling-block_n to_o be_v remove_v out_o of_o the_o way_n before_o they_o can_v sound_v a_o victory_n or_o can_v conclude_v that_o their_o future_a happiness_n tranquillity_n and_o redemption_n be_v approach_v or_o near_o at_o hand_n and_o that_o be_v this_o viz._n that_o although_o you_o do_v former_o make_v a_o most_o famous_a order_n as_o be_v then_o true_o sensible_a of_o the_o former_a estate_n &_o condition_n of_o your_o poor_a sub-tenant_n which_o if_o it_o be_v then_o make_v like_o the_o law_n of_o the_o mede_n &_o persian_n unalterable_a it_o deserve_v to_o be_v engrave_v upon_o the_o wall_n of_o your_o royal_a exchange_n next_o to_o sir_n william_n turner_n in_o letter_n of_o gold_n viz._n that_o those_o only_o who_o shall_v be_v in_o actual_a possession_n at_o or_o near_o the_o expiration_n of_o any_o of_o your_o future_a lease_n shall_v be_v permit_v to_o renew_v but_o so_o it_o be_v that_o since_o the_o late_a dreadful_a fire_n this_o order_n have_v be_v much_o infringe_v and_o you_o have_v take_v 5_o l._n a_o piece_n of_o several_a of_o the_o ancient_a leasee_n to_o renew_v again_o for_o eleven_o year_n so_o that_o tempora_fw-la mutantur_fw-la &_o new_a lord_n new_a law_n but_o it_o be_v hope_v that_o upon_o second_o thought_n and_o upon_o your_o petitioner_n present_a complaint_n you_o will_v not_o permit_v they_o to_o renew_v but_o will_v still_o construe_v this_o transaction_n with_o reference_n and_o respect_n first_o have_v to_o your_o former_a order_n unless_o you_o do_v repeal_n and_o make_v void_a the_o say_a order_n after_o the_o late_a fire_n and_o before_o you_o do_v receive_v their_o say_v five_o pound_n or_o else_o that_o you_o do_v not_o take_v any_o notice_n thereof_o as_o not_o remember_v in_o what_o a_o condition_n those_o sub-tenant_n have_v be_v or_o else_o that_o you_o take_v it_o for_o grant_v that_o all_o those_o leasee_n who_o have_v pay_v in_o their_o five_o pound_n have_v be_v in_o actual_a possession_n and_o if_o so_o you_o may_v very_o well_o return_v they_o their_o money_n again_o as_o under_o a_o mistake_n but_o if_o this_o for_o the_o present_n can_v be_v avoid_v it_o be_v hope_v for_o the_o future_a as_o lease_n do_v fall_v into_o your_o hand_n you_o will_v please_v to_o take_v a_o special_a and_o particular_a care_n in_o relation_n thereunto_o and_o now_o it_o come_v into_o my_o mind_n i_o remember_v a_o remarkable_a passage_n of_o a_o ancient_a shopkeeper_n as_o i_o have_v be_v inform_v of_o your_o royal_a exchange_n which_o be_v pertinent_a to_o the_o business_n in_o hand_n i_o have_v think_v good_a here_o to_o insert_v viz._n that_o the_o good_a old_a man_n have_v pay_v a_o wrack-rent_a for_o the_o space_n of_o several_a year_n together_o for_o his_o dwellinghouse_n but_o at_o length_n when_o his_o landlord_n lease_n from_o the_o company_n be_v near_o

the_o master_n and_o warden_n of_o such_o a_o company_n to_o give_v he_o notice_n that_o he_o must_v come_v such_o a_o day_n to_o the_o hall_n as_o be_v the_o immediate_a tenant_n to_o renew_v the_o lease_n of_o his_o house_n at_o which_o the_o good_a old_a man_n be_v so_o much_o overjoy_v and_o transport_v as_o that_o he_o think_v it_o be_v a_o good_a angel_n in_o humane_a shape_n that_o do_v appear_v to_o bring_v he_o such_o welcome_a and_o such_o acceptable_a tiding_n the_o application_n hereof_o i_o leave_v to_o your_o most_o worthy_a self_n and_o if_o it_o shall_v so_o happen_v that_o
