why_o may_v not_o the_o king_n invite_v foreign_a force_n hither_o now_o at_o the_o last_o for_o his_o preservation_n and_o relief_n who_o the_o rebel_n themselves_o have_v entertain_v already_o this_o two_o whole_a year_n and_o over_o for_o his_o destruction_n and_o ruin_n i_o can_v imagine_v why_o the_o worthy_a citizen_n of_o london_n be_v to_o note_n and_o observe_v this_o as_o any_o

at_o home_n which_o they_o have_v against_o his_o bring_n in_o of_o foreign_a from_o abroad_o for_o if_o it_o be_v not_o lawful_a for_o he_o to_o defend_v himself_o by_o force_n then_o be_v it_o not_o

who_o be_v instigate_v once_o in_o a_o dream_n to_o make_v some_o verse_n be_v very_o much_o afflict_v the_o next_o day_n when_o he_o awake_v how_o he_o shall_v do_v it_o for_o account_v poesy_n nothing_o but_o colour_n and_o fiction_n and_o have_v be_v himself_o all_o his_o life_n long_o a_o profess_a votary_n to_o truth_n he_o find_v that_o he_o want_v the_o faculty_n of_o make_v probable_a

which_o have_v be_v make_v unto_o the_o contrary_n for_o the_o first_o of_o these_o if_o by_o overthrow_v the_o law_n of_o the_o land_n be_v mean_v a_o total_a eradication_n and_o extirpation_n of_o all_o the_o ancient_a law_n which_o be_v of_o the_o foundation_n of_o this_o kingdom_n government_n as_o if_o the_o king_n purpose_v to_o new_a mould_n the_o commonwealth_n and_o to_o let_v nothing_o pass_v for_o law_n but_o what_o he_o like_v then_o that_o which_o be_v here_o say_v be_v very_o considerable_a indeed_o and_o to_o the_o purpose_n but_o it_o be_v not_o true_a for_o i_o hope_v no_o man_n of_o understanding_n will_v suffer_v himself_o to_o be_v convince_v by_o this_o argument_n the_o king_n will_v take_v away_o all_o the_o penal_a law_n in_o england_n which_o have_v be_v make_v against_o recusant_n therefore_o the_o king_n will_v take_v away_o all_o the_o law_n of_o england_n that_o ever_o have_v be_v make_v and_o if_o by_o overthrow_v the_o law_n of_o the_o land_n be_v

queen_n reign_n then_o that_o which_o be_v here_o say_v be_v indeed_o very_o true_a but_o it_o be_v no_o whitt_n considerable_a or_o to_o the_o purpose_n for_o against_o what_o law_n be_v it_o to_o have_v a_o purpose_n or_o a_o resolution_n to_o repeal_v any_o law_n certain_o the_o law_n make_v here_o in_o england_n be_v not_o like_o the_o law_n of_o the_o mede_n and_o persian_n that_o never_o

that_o they_o never_o live_v long_o than_o their_o reason_n and_o then_o doubtless_o if_o there_o be_v no_o sin_n in_o the_o repeal_v itself_o of_o any_o law_n there_o can_v be_v no_o very_o great_a offence_n in_o the_o resolution_n of_o repeal_n i_o take_v not_o upon_o i_o now_o to_o meddle_v with_o the_o religion_n of_o those_o law_n which_o be_v then_o make_v against_o recusant_n or_o how_o
