of_o his_o enterprise_n upon_o cales_n and_o in_o some_o other_o military_a action_n to_o which_o i_o may_v add_v that_o this_o earl_n himself_o be_v not_o hold_v by_o the_o people_n to_o be_v so_o great_a a_o favourite_n at_o court_n as_o that_o they_o may_v not_o trust_v he_o with_o their_o army_n against_o the_o king_n and_o by_o this_o you_o may_v perhaps_o conjecture_v the_o cause_n for_o which_o the_o parliament_n make_v choice_n of_o he_o for_o general_n b._n but_o why_o do_v they_o think_v he_o discontent_v with_o the_o court_n a._n i_o know_v not_o that_o nor_o indeed_o that_o he_o

court_n can_v not_o be_v his_o proper_a element_n unless_o he_o have_v have_v some_o extraordinary_a favour_n there_o to_o balance_v that_o calamity_n but_o for_o particular_a discontent_n from_o the_o king_n or_o intention_n of_o revenge_n for_o any_o suppose_a disgrace_n i_o think_v he_o have_v none_o nor_o that_o he_o be_v any_o way_n addict_v to_o presbyterian_a doctrine_n or_o other_o
