to_o see_v the_o thing_n do_v then_o second_o for_o the_o reason_n which_o the_o parliament_n ground_n the_o work_n of_o transplantation_n upon_o as_o they_o be_v hint_v and_o provide_v for_o in_o

to_o the_o like_a inhuman_a usage_n and_o destruction_n for_o the_o time_n to_o come_v which_o we_o have_v reason_n to_o believe_v they_o judge_v they_o can_v not_o do_v without_o this_o work_n of_o transplantation_n which_o be_v the_o result_n of_o a_o parliament_n nay_o of_o several_a parliament_n one_o after_o another_o approve_v and_o confirm_v each_o other_o act_n therein_o and_o withal_o not_o a_o sudden_a act_n admit_v of_o a_o probability_n of_o surprise_n before_o they_o have_v well_o advise_v and_o weigh_v the_o thing_n it_o be_v under_o consideration_n above_o twelve_o month_n and_o they_o be_v the_o supreme_a legislative_a power_n of_o these_o three_o nation_n the_o consideration_n of_o all_o which_o may_v have_v be_v sufficient_a to_o have_v caution_v the_o discussor_n though_o he_o be_v in_o his_o own_o conceit_n more_o able_a to_o judge_n of_o that_o work_n than_o they_o all_v to_o have_v be_v more_o modest_a in_o his_o language_n especial_o in_o a_o business_n of_o that_o nature_n that_o no_o particular_a person_n can_v propose_v self-advantage_n thereby_o and_o withal_o of_o that_o weight_n that_o the_o settlement_n of_o a_o nation_n depend_v upon_o it_o but_o the_o discussor_n i_o think_v seem_v to_o imply_v a_o objection_n against_o this_o in_o page_n 27_o &_o 28._o of_o his_o book_n that_o though_o the_o business_n of_o transplantation_n be_v the_o

say_v he_o to_o stop_v the_o wonder_n how_o such_o destructive_a resolution_n can_v pass_v or_o be_v let_v pass_v from_o the_o hand_n of_o authority_n all_o this_o time_n consider_v first_o those_o that_o be_v in_o england_n must_v see_v and_o hear_v by_o these_o eye_n and_o ear_n that_o be_v in_o ireland_n who_o as_o he_o say_v be_v stranger_n to_o that_o land_n and_o can_v not_o at_o the_o first_o sight_n understand_v the_o complete_a interest_n thereof_o second_o the_o face_n of_o thing_n be_v much_o different_a in_o ireland_n and_o though_o then_o necessity_n may_v have_v make_v it_o fit_a to_o have_v transplant_v yet_o now_o the_o unfitness_n make_v it_o not_o necessary_a three_o though_o then_o in_o their_o wisdom_n they_o give_v out_o such_o order_n yet_o in_o their_o goodness_n they_o do_v not_o think_v fit_a to_o execute_v they_o even_o till_o this_o time_n as_o if_o they_o do_v wait_v a_o time_n to_o be_v gracious_a to_o the_o irish_a nation_n these_o thing_n be_v propose_v as_o a_o premonishment_n to_o stop_v wonder_n say_v the_o discussor_n but_o where_o do_v this_o wonder_n lie_v be_v it_o in_o that_o we_o have_v no_o wise_a a_o parliament_n that_o
