like_a a_o conspiracy_n to_o take_v away_o a_o woman_n to_o kill_v or_o rob_v be_v all_o direct_v to_o that_o end_n so_o conspire_v to_o kill_v the_o king_n must_v immediate_o aim_v at_o kill_v the_o

so_o that_o it_o must_v be_v by_o implication_n that_o be_v it_o be_v first_o imagine_v that_o i_o intend_v to_o raise_v a_o war_n and_o then_o it_o be_v imagine_v that_o war_n shall_v tend_v to_o the_o destruction_n of_o the_o king_n now_o i_o know_v that_o may_v follow_v but_o that_o be_v not_o natural_a or_o necessary_a and_o be_v not_o natural_a or_o necessary_a it_o can_v be_v so_o understand_v by_o the_o law_n that_o it_o be_v not_o it_o plain_a for_o many_o war_n have_v be_v make_v and_o the_o death_n of_o the_o king_n have_v not_o follow_v david_n make_v war_n upon_o saul_n

so_o that_o it_o be_v two_o distinct_a thing_n to_o make_v war_n and_o to_o endeavour_v to_o kill_v the_o king_n now_o as_o there_o be_v no_o manner_n of_o pretence_n that_o i_o shall_v endeavour_v to_o kill_v the_o king_n direct_o so_o it_o can_v be_v by_o inference_n because_o it_o be_v treason_n under_o another_o species_n i_o confess_v i_o be_o not_o fit_a to_o argue_v these_o point_n i_o
