of_o the_o irish_a rebel_n arrive_v in_o england_n fill_v all_o place_n with_o the_o sad_a complaint_n of_o their_o cruelty_n whereupon_o the_o parliament_n earnest_o press_v the_o king_n to_o

what_o he_o add_v far_a of_o the_o scotch_a be_v the_o much_o better_a cause_n be_v only_o the_o private_a opinion_n of_o a_o fellow_n rebel_n they_o be_v both_o so_o bad_a as_o upon_o a_o impartial_a
