what_o danger_n they_o will_v have_v hazard_v if_o i_o will_v have_v join_v with_o they_o according_a to_o their_o desire_n but_o now_o perhaps_o the_o same_o man_n have_v not_o the_o same_o mind_n

that_o queen_n elizabeth_n be_v a_o protestant_n think_v it_o not_o wise_a or_o safe_a to_o declare_v a_o papist_n for_o her_o successor_n yet_o she_o after_o declare_v king_n james_n her_o son_n
