i_o have_v all_o the_o reason_n in_o the_o world_n to_o believe_v that_o what_o be_v so_o much_o desire_v by_o former_a parliament_n must_v needs_o be_v very_o grateful_a to_o you_o now_o for_o though_o some_o perhaps_o may_v wish_v these_o measure_n have_v be_v take_v soon_o yet_o no_o man_n can_v with_o reason_n think_v it_o be_v now_o too_o late_o for_o they_o who_o desire_v to_o make_v

no_o but_o there_o be_v mention_n of_o a_o old_a one_o double_a confederated_a both_o with_o spain_n and_o england_n to_o the_o same_o purpose_n and_o these_o three_o state_n be_v thus_o unite_v as_o

poor_a unfortunate_a man_n must_v bear_v the_o reproach_n of_o ruine_v not_o only_a england_n but_o spain_n too_o by_o their_o treachery_n but_o yet_o our_o kind_a author_n do_v not_o lay_v all_o

that_o spain_n shall_v join_v with_o his_o majesty_n successor_n and_o for_o the_o introduction_n of_o popery_n make_v a_o war_n upon_o the_o people_n with_o all_o his_o force_n by_o sea_n and_o

and_o it_o be_v not_o improbable_a the_o french_a king_n may_v have_v some_o few_o pensioner_n in_o spain_n as_o well_o as_o england_n but_o yet_o that_o once_o most_o potent_a kingdom_n be_v not_o

his_o sword_n and_o potent_a army_n for_o this_o seem_v in_o great_a part_n at_o least_o not_o so_o much_o owe_v to_o the_o treachery_n of_o our_o minister_n as_o to_o the_o tenacity_n and_o
