this_o messenger_n and_o the_o enclose_a paper_n which_o i_o here_o send_v you_o contain_v a_o true_a copy_n of_o the_o proposition_n and_o letter_n of_o agreement_n between_o owen_n roe_n o_o neile_n and_o col._n george_n monck_n will_v be_v able_a to_o give_v you_o some_o account_n of_o the_o passage_n in_o these_o part_n and_o will_v make_v you_o assure_v that_o i_o do_v not_o forget_v the_o respect_n i_o owe_v unto_o you_o i_o must_v confess_v to_o you_o that_o as_o you_o ever_o conceive_v i_o never_o can_v imagine_v that_o the_o parliament_n proceed_n will_v have_v advance_v to_o so_o high_a a_o degree_n of_o rage_n &_o wickedness_n as_o i_o see_v they_o be_v now_o come_v to_o and_o be_v resolve_v to_o act_n by_o but_o be_v amaze_v at_o the_o king_n murder_n and_o see_v the_o gangreane_n do_v so_o cruel_o spread_v i_o will_v impart_v to_o you_o my_o resolution_n that_o i_o be_o resolve_v to_o get_v into_o your_o part_n with_o the_o first_o conveniency_n &_o adhere_v to_o you_o there_o who_o action_n be_v more_o conduce_v to_o the_o preservation_n of_o our_o religion_n law_n and_o common_a interest_n than_o any_o where_o else_o that_o i_o can_v find_v but_o that_o this_o my_o so_o sudden_a resolution_n may_v not_o be_v conceive_v the_o fruit_n of_o some_o vain_a fear_n miscarriage_n in_o myself_o or_o light_a desire_n to_o abandon_v my_o former_a principle_n i_o shall_v give_v you_o a_o right_a understanding_n of_o all_o the_o motion_n and_o passage_n of_o my_o soul_n since_o i_o be_v acquaint_v with_o this_o late_a treaty_n between_o colonel_n monck_n and_o owen_n roe_n o_o neile_n that_o thereby_o you_o may_v judge_v of_o the_o ground_n of_o these_o my_o design_n and_o distaste_v and_o my_o resolution_n take_v thereupon_o and_o before_o i_o consider_v the_o particular_n of_o the_o treaty_n the_o thing_n itself_o be_v so_o odious_a unto_o i_o that_o if_o they_o can_v have_v make_v the_o best_a bargain_n to_o be_v imagine_v for_o the_o english_a safety_n the_o manner_n of_o it_o will_v have_v appear_v to_o i_o very_o unsavoury_a for_o although_o it_o can_v be_v deny_v that_o almost_o the_o whole_a irish_a party_n in_o regard_n of_o their_o confederacy_n and_o combination_n have_v not_o be_v innocent_a in_o all_o particular_n of_o that_o vast_a ocean_n of_o english_a blood_n that_o have_v be_v shed_v yet_o it_o be_v most_o

and_o the_o english_a so_o much_o weaken_v in_o their_o person_n and_o possession_n yet_o it_o can_v be_v deny_v but_o this_o kingdom_n have_v still_o many_o moderate-minded_n man_n that_o loathe_v

they_o may_v preserve_v to_o themselves_o the_o triumph_n of_o their_o cruelty_n and_o treachery_n and_o to_o lap_n they_o up_o in_o their_o affection_n with_o promise_n of_o reward_n if_o they_o
