and_o assure_v aswell_o in_o their_o loyalty_n to_o their_o prince_n as_o in_o their_o love_n to_o their_o country_n and_o therefore_o in_o all_o their_o counsel_n and_o consultation_n they_o more_o

especial_o if_o they_o be_v bound_v or_o border_v upon_o he_o for_o he_o think_v by_o these_o mean_n not_o only_o to_o save_v his_o land_n and_o tenemente_n from_o the_o spoil_n of_o the_o party_n

a_o second_o reason_n that_o induce_v the_o english_a to_o be_v so_o undertake_v for_o the_o irish_a be_v ground_v upon_o consideration_n peradventure_o some_o hundred_o cow_n some_o time_n more_o
