to_o who_o his_o obstinacy_n will_v recommend_v he_o if_o any_o do_v think_v they_o be_v in_o the_o right_n when_o they_o serve_v as_o bawd_n to_o the_o arbitrary_a just_n of_o the_o two_o late_a

and_o provoke_v those_o of_o another_o opinion_n on_o the_o other_o side_n i_o think_v they_o be_v very_o much_o to_o blame_v who_o take_v unnecessary_a occasion_n to_o reproach_v their_o neighbour_n with_o what_o they_o do_v in_o the_o late_a time_n they_o that_o be_v thus_o liberal_a of_o their_o tongue_n will_v do_v well_o to_o consider_v whether_o they_o be_v never_o guilty_a of_o some_o

unless_o they_o cut_v the_o throat_n of_o all_o those_o that_o will_v defend_v he_o indeed_o to_o do_v it_o by_o a_o open_a war_n rather_o than_o poison_n or_o a_o private_a assacination_n be_v the_o

be_v indeed_o to_o go_v round_o about_o for_o the_o near_a way_n therefore_o a_o war_n when_o levy_v must_v be_v for_o some_o other_o intent_n then_o to_o take_v away_o the_o king_n life_n since_o when_o englishmen_n enjoy_v their_o right_n no_o prince_n be_v so_o great_a and_o happy_a in_o the_o head_n heart_n hand_n and_o purse_n of_o his_o subject_n than_o a_o english_a king_n be_v but_o yet_o allow_v that_o upon_o every_o war_n levy_v the_o death_n of_o the_o king_n will_v certain_o ensue_v if_o the_o rebel_n prevail_v yet_o this_o question_n do_v not_o natural_o arise_v viz._n where_o be_v that_o statute_n which_o do_v in_o express_a term_n say_v that_o a_o conspiracy_n to_o levy_v war_n be_v treason_n for_o if_o it_o be_v not_o so_o express_o and_o literal_o within_o

death_n for_o this_o be_v not_o to_o be_v provable_o attaint_v by_o overt_a deed._n first_o because_o that_o conspire_v the_o death_n of_o the_o king_n and_o levy_v of_o war_n be_v two_o distinct_a
