time_n so_o that_o if_o the_o present_a king_n of_o spain_n shall_v imitate_v his_o great_a grandfather_n philip_n the_o second_o &_o oppress_v any_o of_o his_o subject_n as_o cruel_o as_o he_o do_v those_o of_o the_o low_a country_n and_o so_o force_v they_o to_o a_o necessary_a self_n defence_n we_o have_v renounce_v the_o policy_n of_o our_o ancestor_n who_o think_v it_o their_o interest_n as_o well_o as_o their_o duty_n to_o succour_v the_o distress_a and_o must_v not_o only_o aid_v he_o with_o 8000_o man_n for_o three_o month_n to_o make_v those_o people_n slave_n but_o if_o the_o matter_n can_v be_v compose_v in_o that_o time_n make_v war_n upon_o they_o with_o our_o whole_a force_n both_o by_o land_n and_o sea_n but_o that_o which_o concern_v we_o yet_o near_o in_o this_o league_n be_v that_o this_o obligation_n of_o assistance_n be_v mutual_a so_o that_o if_o a_o disturbance_n shall_v happen_v hereafter_o in_o england_n upon_o any_o attempt_n to_o change_v our_o

to_o believe_v be_v enter_v into_o for_o the_o security_n of_o the_o protestant_a religion_n and_o the_o good_a of_o the_o nation_n to_o give_v aid_n to_o so_o pious_a a_o design_n and_o to_o make_v war_n upon_o the_o people_n with_o all_o his_o force_n both_o by_o land_n and_o sea_n and_o therefore_o it_o be_v no_o wonder_n that_o the_o minister_n be_v not_o forward_o in_o show_v this_o league_n to_o the_o parliament_n who_o will_v have_v soon_o observe_v all_o these_o inconvenience_n and_o have_v see_v how_o little_a such_o a_o league_n can_v contribute_v to_o the_o preserve_v the_o general_a peace_n or_o to_o the_o secure_n of_o flanders_n since_o the_o french_a king_n may_v within_o one_o month_n time_n possess_v himself_o of_o it_o and_o we_o by_o the_o league_n be_v not_o oblige_v to_o send_v our_o succour_n till_o 3_o month_n after_o the_o invasion_n so_o that_o they_o will_v upon_o the_o whole_a matter_n have_v be_v incline_v to_o suspect_v that_o the_o main_a end_n of_o this_o league_n be_v only_o to_o serve_v for_o a_o handsome_a pretence_n to_o raise_v a_o army_n in_o england_n and_o if_o the_o people_n here_o shall_v grow_v discontent_v at_o it_o and_o any_o little_a disorder_n shall_v ensue_v the_o spaniard_n be_v thereby_o oblige_v to_o send_v over_o force_n to_o suppress_v they_o the_o next_o thing_n recommend_v to_o they_o be_v the_o far_a examination_n of_o the_o plot_n and_o every_o one_o who_o have_v observe_v what_o have_v pass_v for_o more_o than_o two_o year_n together_o can_v doubt_v that_o this_o be_v sincere_o desire_v by_o such_o as_o be_v most_o in_o credit_n with_o his_o majesty_n and_o then_o sure_o the_o parliament_n deserve_v not_o to_o be_v censure_v upon_o this_o account_n since_o the_o examination_n of_o so_o many_o new_a witness_n the_o trial_n of_o the_o lord_n stafford_n the_o great_a preparation_n for_o the_o trial_n of_o the_o rest_n of_o the_o lord_n and_o their_o diligent_a inquiry_n into_o the_o horrid_a irish_a treason_n show_v that_o the_o parliament_n want_v no_o diligence_n to_o pursue_v his_o majesty_n good_a intention_n in_o that_o affair_n 1680._o and_o when_o his_o majesty_n desire_v from_o the_o parliament_n their_o advice_n and_o assistance_n concern_v the_o preservation_n of_o tangier_n 1680._o the_o commons_o do_v not_o neglect_v to_o give_v its_o due_a consideration_n they_o true_o represent_v to_o he_o how_o that_o important_a place_n come_v to_o be_v bring_v into_o such_o exigency_n after_o so_o vast_a a_o treasure_n expend_v to_o make_v it_o useful_a and_o that_o nothing_o better_a can_v be_v expect_v of_o a_o town_n for_o the_o most_o part_n put_v under_o popish_a governor_n and_o always_o fill_v with_o a_o popish_a garrison_n these_o be_v evil_n in_o his_o majesty_n own_o power_n to_o redress_v and_o they_o advise_v he_o to_o it_o nor_o do_v they_o rest_v there_o but_o promise_v to_o assist_v he_o in_o defence_n of_o it_o as_o soon_o as_o ever_o they_o can_v be_v reasonable_o secure_v that_o any_o supply_v which_o they_o give_v for_o that_o purpose_n shall_v not_o be_v use_v to_o augment_v the_o strength_n of_o our_o popish_a adversary_n and_o to_o increase_v our_o danger_n at_o home_n they_o have_v more_o than_o once_o see_v money_n employ_v direct_o contrary_a to_o the_o end_n for_o which_o it_o be_v give_v by_o parliament_n &_o they_o have_v too_o good_a cause_n of_o fear_n it_o may_v be_v so_o again_o and_o they_o know_v that_o such_o a_o misimployment_n will_v have_v be_v fatal_a at_o that_o time_n but_o above_o all_o they_o consider_v the_o eminent_a danger_n which_o threaten_v they_o with_o certain_a ruin_n at_o home_n and_o therefore_o just_o think_v that_o to_o leave_v the_o consideration_n of_o england_n to_o provide_v for_o tangier_n will_v be_v to_o act_n like_o a_o man_n that_o shall_v send_v his_o servant_n to_o mend_v a_o gap_n in_o his_o hedge_n when_o he_o see_v his_o house_n on_o fire_n and_o his_o family_n like_o to_o be_v consume_v in_o it_o we_o be_v next_o tell_v that_o his_o majesty_n offer_v to_o concur_v in_o any_o remedy_n that_o can_v be_v propose_v for_o the_o security_n of_o the_o protestant_a

reflect_v on_o those_o instance_n which_o be_v single_v out_o as_o so_o many_o unsuitable_a return_n of_o the_o commons_o they_o be_v complain_v of_o for_o present_v address_n in_o the_o nature_n of_o

but_o they_o will_v be_v misinterpret_v at_o court_n if_o the_o commons_o have_v return_v answer_n to_o his_o majesty_n message_n without_o show_v upon_o what_o ground_n they_o procee_v they_o have_v then_o be_v accuse_v as_o man_n act_v peremptory_o &_o without_o reason_n if_o they_o modest_o express_v the_o reason_n of_o their_o resolution_n they_o be_v then_o say_v to_o remonstrate_v but_o what_o the_o minister_n will_v have_v this_o word_n remonstrance_n signify_v what_o crime_n it_o be_v they_o mean_v thereby_o to_o charge_v the_o commons_o with_o be_v unknown_a to_o a_o english_a
