And a project for a fourth petition, tending to a speedy accommodation of the present unhappy differences between His Maiesty and the Parliament. Written upon the perusing of the speciall passages of the two weeks, from the 29 of November, to the 13 of December, 1642. And dedicated to the Lord Maior and aldermen of the said City.

of_o they_o may_v by_o god_n blessing_n prove_v a_o effectual_a antidote_n against_o those_o high_a distemper_n of_o which_o the_o king_n and_o parliament_n and_o kingdom_n do_v all_o complain_v now_o whosoever_o have_v be_v in_o the_o fault_n or_o whatsoever_o have_v be_v the_o true_a cause_n of_o they_o and_o i_o can_v conceive_v why_o his_o majesty_n voluntary_a yield_v to_o this_o abridgement_n of_o the_o right_n of_o the_o crown_n in_o the_o point_n of_o dissolve_v of_o parliament_n for_o the_o good_a of_o his_o people_n shall_v be_v esteem_v more_o dishonourable_a to_o he_o than_o it_o
