these_o latter_a argument_n which_o be_v most_o strong_a but_o only_o upon_o the_o first_o mr._n rouvigny_n sense_n and_o we_o differ_v very_o much_o upon_o they_o though_o we_o agree_v perfect_o upon_o the_o rest_n and_o indeed_o though_o he_o be_v a_o very_a able_a man_n as_o to_o his_o master_n service_n in_o thing_n where_o religion_n be_v not_o concern_v yet_o i_o believe_v it_o be_v much_o more_o happy_a consider_v the_o posture_n he_o be_v now_o in_o and_o his_o temper_n be_v of_o such_o a_o sort_n that_o we_o may_v deal_v clear_o with_o he_o throughout_o and_o not_o be_v force_v to_o stop_v short_a in_o a_o discourse_n of_o consequence_n and_o leave_v the_o most_o material_a part_n out_o because_o we_o know_v it_o will_v shock_v his_o particular_a opinion_n and_o so_o

in_o this_o next_o session_n of_o parliament_n for_o have_v we_o have_v one_o here_o from_o his_o most_o christian_n majesty_n who_o have_v take_v the_o whole_a business_n to_o heart_n and_o who_o will_v have_v represent_v the_o state_n of_o our_o case_n true_o as_o it_o be_v to_o his_o master_n i_o do_v not_o doubt_v but_o his_o most_o christian_n majesty_n will_v have_v engage_v himself_o further_a in_o the_o affair_n then_o at_o present_a i_o fear_v he_o have_v do_v and_o by_o his_o approbation_n have_v give_v such_o counsel_n as_o have_v be_v offer_v to_o his_o r._n h._n by_o those_o

if_o we_o have_v be_v so_o happy_a as_o to_o have_v have_v his_o most_o christian_a majesty_n with_o we_o to_o this_o degree_n i_o will_v have_v answer_v with_o my_o life_n for_o such_o success_n
