daughter_n you_o can_v not_o have_v escape_v as_o i_o think_v for_o when_o i_o consider_v how_o first_o you_o engage_v in_o the_o concern_v and_o the_o reason_n that_o persuade_v you_o thereto_o and_o what_o advances_n you_o make_v therein_o i_o declare_v to_o you_o i_o can_v see_v overmuch_o innocence_n in_o you_o but_o a_o confound_a deal_n of_o impudence_n pray_o forsooth_o good_a madam_n

at_o lest_o what_o may_v you_o do_v when_o your_o husband_n be_v at_o church_n in_o a_o chamber_n with_o a_o man_n alone_o why_o true_o we_o must_v give_v you_o our_o judgement_n that_o deep_a

a_o desire_n after_o glory_n and_o to_o be_v esteem_v one_o of_o the_o elder_a daughter_n of_o the_o whore_n of_o babylon_n alas_o what_o be_v s._n coleman_n or_o s._n ireland_n etc._n etc._n to_o you_o madam_n mere_a child_n in_o politic_n you_o have_v not_o only_o be_v as_o deep_a in_o the_o mire_n as_o ever_o they_o be_v but_o you_o have_v vanquish_v all_o that_o rise_v up_o against_o you_o

in_o our_o way_n be_v sinner_n themselves_o in_o the_o same_o however_o we_o be_v liable_a to_o the_o law_n and_o so_o we_o shall_v not_o when_o we_o have_v licence_n and_o toleration_n to_o follow_v our_o profession_n with_o quietness_n and_o without_o any_o disturbance_n but_o then_o again_o i_o consider_v as_o to_o the_o point_n of_o your_o religion_n it_o be_v the_o best_a in_o the_o world_n for_o we_o for_o we_o can_v whore_n and_o whore_n again_o and_o confess_v and_o fess_v and_o obtain_v pardon_n and_o be_v pardon_v to_o all_o intent_n and_o purpose_n and_o go_v out_o of_o the_o

though_o for_o my_o part_n it_o be_v all_o one_o to_o i_o what_o religion_n go_v up_o i_o be_o old_a and_o hope_v to_o live_v and_o die_v honest_o in_o my_o call_v one_o thing_n daughter_n i_o be_o

i_o say_v it_o a_o very_a ancient_a one_o and_o be_v of_o great_a esteem_n in_o all_o age_n of_o the_o world_n i_o admire_v who_o bewitch_v you_o to_o this_o trade_n of_o sham-plotting_a it_o can_v not_o be_v my_o lord_n of_o s_o nor_o his_o servant_n for_o he_o be_v too_o wise_a and_o his_o servant_n too_o wary_a sure_a to_o concern_v themselves_o in_o such_o afair_n we_o have_v have_v

protest_v serious_o daughter_n i_o be_o afraid_a you_o have_v take_v in_o a_o club_n of_o s._n omers_n saint_n to_o help_v you_o out_o at_o this_o dead_a lift_n for_o to_o say_v truth_n i_o believe_v you_o lose_v abundance_n of_o reputation_n by_o be_v in_o newgate_n and_o try_v for_o your_o life_n and_o consequent_o your_o trade_n and_o that_o be_v able_a to_o vex_v any_o woman_n in_o england_n especial_o one_o of_o your_o lofty_a spirit_n but_o i_o will_v fain_o know_v daughter_n why_o you_o part_v with_o you_o money_n so_o free_o to_o capt._n dangerfield_n in_o get_v he_o out_o of_o
