if_o he_o can_v i_o desire_v no_o favour_n from_o he_o nor_o any_o therein_o for_o the_o more_o it_o be_v question_v the_o more_o my_o faithfulness_n to_o the_o parliament_n will_v appear_v beside_o

6000_o l._n 7_o s._n 6_o d._n as_o due_a to_o he_o from_o the_o parliament_n and_o will_v have_v the_o foresay_a pearl_n in_o part_n of_o satisfaction_n thereof_o which_o be_v for_o the_o public_a
