suitable_a to_o the_o service_n they_o have_v do_v their_o country_n they_o will_v be_v ready_a to_o resume_v their_o arm_n whenever_o occasion_n offer_v but_o i_o desire_v to_o know_v of_o these_o

that_o there_o be_v a_o form_a design_n to_o overthrow_v our_o law_n and_o liberty_n but_o if_o we_o keep_v a_o stand_a army_n all_o depend_v upon_o the_o uncertain_a and_o capricious_a humour_n of_o

make_v murder_v their_o profession_n and_o inquire_v no_o far_o into_o the_o justice_n of_o the_o cause_n than_o how_o they_o shall_v be_v pay_v who_o must_v be_v false_a rapacious_a and_o cruel_a in_o their_o own_o defence_n for_o have_v no_o other_o profession_n or_o subsistence_n to_o depend_v upon_o they_o be_v force_v to_o stir_v up_o the_o ambition_n of_o prince_n and_o engage_v they_o

they_o have_v procure_v for_o their_o country_n and_o i_o doubt_v not_o but_o the_o generosity_n and_o gratitude_n of_o the_o parliament_n will_v give_v they_o a_o donative_n equal_a to_o their_o
