           my
           negotiations
           have
           principally
           respected
           the
           honour
           ,
           and
           conveniency
           of
           my
           King
           ,
           and
           Country
           ,
           of
           which
           
             I
          
           shall
           render
           such
           account
           ,
           as
           every
           accusation
           shall
           turne
           to
           my
           advantage
           .
        
         
           I
           will
           not
           reflect
           upon

           scope
           of

           well
           ,
           their
           wisdome
           will
           easily
           penetrate
           ,
           that
           there
           may
           lye
           hid
           other
           designes

           a
           private
           man
           ;
           but
           humbly
           desiring
