that_o you_o will_v mind_v the_o dread_a and_o fear_n of_o the_o lord_n god_n which_o be_v the_o begin_n of_o wisdom_n therefore_o be_v moderate_a and_o in_o coolness_n consider_v these_o thing_n

the_o great_a part_n of_o the_o people_n that_o be_v admit_v to_o choose_v parliament_n man_n be_v such_o as_o do_v not_o true_o desire_v the_o good_a of_o god_n people_n whatever_o they_o may_v

such_o man_n as_o be_v like_o mind_a with_o themselves_o that_o be_v plain_a and_o according_a to_o the_o scripture_n for_o the_o world_n love_v their_o own_o as_o say_v john_n and_o now_o for_o proof_n that_o the_o great_a part_n be_v not_o such_o as_o desire_v the_o good_a of_o the_o lord_n people_n i_o will_v have_v you_o consider_v how_o that_o the_o scripture_n say_v that_o the_o flock_n of_o christ_n be_v a_o little_a flock_n and_o christ_n say_v straight_o be_v the_o gate_n and_o narrow_a be_v the_o way_n that_o lead_v unto_o life_n and_o few_o there_o be_v that_o find_v it_o but_o

shall_v be_v save_v now_o if_o you_o believe_v these_o scripture_n then_o may_v you_o see_v that_o a_o parliament_n that_o be_v choose_v by_o most_o voice_n be_v not_o like_a to_o act_v for_o god_n and_o the_o good_a of_o his_o people_n and_o it_o have_v be_v the_o complaint_n of_o the_o sober_a and_o honest_a man_n in_o several_a county_n when_o they_o shall_v have_v choose_v parliament_n man_n that_o they_o can_v not_o choose_v such_o a_o man_n as_o they_o judge_v will_v act_v single_o for_o the_o good_a of_o the_o people_n of_o god_n and_o the_o country_n because_o they_o be_v over-voted_n by_o the_o wild_a disaffect_v people_n who_o sometime_o have_v be_v stir_v up_o by_o their_o priest_n to_o vote_n for_o such_o a_o man_n as_o the_o priest_n know_v will_v act_v for_o their_o

with_o flattery_n thereby_o strive_v to_o get_v the_o people_n to_o vote_n for_o they_o promise_v they_o to_o stand_v for_o their_o liberty_n when_o it_o have_v be_v but_o to_o serve_v their_o own_o self-end_n and_o thus_o the_o people_n have_v be_v deceive_v and_o if_o at_o any_o time_n in_o some_o county_n and_o place_n the_o honest_a sober_a people_n have_v choose_v some_o honest-man_n to_o

whereas_o it_o be_v say_v that_o it_o be_v england_n birthright_n that_o the_o people_n shall_v choose_v their_o own_o lawmaker_n i_o answer_v then_o many_o thousand_o of_o man_n in_o england_n have_v
