A96516	The sope-patentees of Londons petition opened and explained. Or, The unmasking of these cruel sope-patentees deceitful petition, presented by them to the Honorable House of Commons. Wherein you have a discovery made (in part and but in part) of the great sufferings of this common-wealth: as also of the special sufferings of some free-born subjects in their liberties and estates, sustained by these cruel sope-monopolers. / By Richard Wilkins.

the_o closier_n of_o this_o first_o general_a part_n of_o this_o petition_n which_o be_v this_o that_o they_o have_v be_v serviceable_a and_o still_o desire_v to_o be_v to_o the_o king_n and_o

as_o be_v above_o express_v and_o then_o take_v their_o be_v serviceable_a to_o king_n and_o kingdom_n by_o way_n of_o co-●n●ction_a then_o the_o probable_a result_n of_o these_o word_n may_v be_v this_o that_o they_o have_v give_v assistance_n to_o both_o side_n and_o there_o be_v reason_n to_o be_v render_v because_o that_o at_o the_o break_n up_o of_o the_o last_o parliament_n may_v 1640._o they_o do_v give_v the_o king_n ten_o or_o twelve_o thousand_o pound_n to_o take_v up_o their_o patent_n again_o which_o they_o have_v surrender_v in_o hope_n never_o to_o see_v parliament_n more_o in_o england_n which_o money_n as_o be_v suppose_v be_v give_v as_o a_o additional_a assistance_n against_o the_o scot_n second_o if_o you_o consider_v that_o if_o the_o parliament_n do_v prevail_v

of_o the_o suit_n at_o law_n against_o they_o commence_v by_o the_o parliament_n force_v their_o fellow_n projector_n thereunto_o 2._o that_o of_o all_o the_o good_n they_o have_v forcible_o and_o oppressive_o take_v and_o spoil_v of_o the_o other_o soap-boilers_a they_o never_o receive_v one_o penny_n to_o this_o i_o answer_v that_o all_o the_o good_n that_o be_v by_o they_o seize_v and_o spoil_v of_o the_o oppress_a soap-boilers_a be_v seize_v for_o the_o use_n of_o these_o projector_n one_o moiety_n thereof_o and_o the_o other_o moiety_n for_o the_o use_n of_o the_o king_n majesty_n
