with_o some_o in_o parliament_n who_o find_v it_o afterward_o to_o their_o own_o trouble_n the_o army_n march_v near_a london_n and_o at_o windsor_n after_o two_o day_n debate_v in_o a_o council_n

into_o a_o new_a war_n which_o be_v so_o near_o that_o my_o delay_n three_o or_o four_o day_n give_v out_o order_n divert_v this_o humour_n of_o the_o army_n from_o be_v statesman_n to_o their_o
