by_o the_o restoration_n of_o king_n charles_n ii_o and_o above_o all_o or_o generous_a and_o frank_a concurrence_n with_o they_o in_o the_o late_a happy_a revolution_n and_o advancement_n of_o king_n

the_o crown_n of_o england_n he_o will_v remove_v the_o seat_n of_o his_o government_n thither_o which_o will_v add_v to_o the_o grandeur_n and_o riches_n of_o england_n whereas_o if_o the_o king_n of_o france_n do_v by_o that_o mean_n fall_v heir_n to_o the_o english_a crown_n he_o will_v certain_o draw_v the_o court_n of_o england_n to_o paris_n this_o the_o scot_n be_v so_o far_o from_o be_v

interest_n but_o if_o it_o be_v not_o who_o will_v reimburse_v the_o charge_n i_o question_v whether_o the_o scot_n company_n or_o perhaps_o the_o whole_a kingdom_n will_v be_v able_a to_o do_v it_o but_o if_o notwithstanding_o all_o this_o the_o spaniard_n shall_v transgress_v their_o bound_n we_o have_v a_o king_n who_o know_v how_o to_o maintain_v his_o authority_n and_o the_o glory_n of_o the_o british_a nation_n of_o which_o he_o have_v give_v we_o a_o instance_n in_o the_o spanish_a ambassador_n but_o a_o few_o day_n ago_o but_o let_v we_o hear_v how_o our_o author_n proceed_v
