we_o have_v doubtless_o exceed_v too_o in_o our_o revenge_n upon_o the_o king_n person_n and_o beside_o those_o that_o have_v fall_v in_o with_o the_o usurpation_n have_v not_o proceed_v against_o

they_o up_o though_o i_o can_v think_v that_o it_o be_v the_o likely_a way_n to_o prepare_v the_o king_n to_o close_v with_o wise_a council_n to_o revive_v or_o continue_v our_o pique_n for_o the_o

to_o their_o country_n i_o think_v this_o age_n afford_v few_o instance_n of_o those_o great_a mind_n and_o therefore_o i_o think_v it_o the_o likely_a way_n to_o m●ke_v man_n instrumental_a towards_o
