way_n turn_v their_o eye_n from_o behold_v but_o yet_o their_o pride_n and_o covetousness_n be_v so_o great_a that_o many_o of_o they_o do_v grievous_o grumble_v at_o i_o and_o many_o long_a furrow_n have_v they_o plough_v upon_o my_o back_n yet_o to_o this_o very_a day_n not_o one_o of_o they_o will_v come_v to_o my_o face_n to_o gainsay_v any_o thing_n contain_v in_o that_o book_n though_o i_o

some_o of_o they_o for_o though_o they_o dare_v not_o come_v to_o my_o face_n to_o answer_v for_o themselves_o yet_o by_o their_o secret_a instigation_n of_o other_o they_o go_v about_o to_o take_v away_o my_o life_n for_o my_o friendly_a and_o plain_a deal_n with_o they_o and_o to_o bring_v about_o their_o devilish_a desire_n some_o of_o their_o poor_a blind_a proselyte_n who_o be_v fit_v for_o that_o purpose_n be_v of_o the_o murder_a principle_n have_v appear_v open_o to_o take_v away_o my_o life_n that_o thereby_o they_o may_v have_v my_o blood_n to_o satisfy_v the_o hungry_a desire_n of_o their_o greedy_a god_n who_o hunger_n can_v be_v stay_v but_o by_o the_o sacrifice_n of_o the_o blood_n of_o the_o saint_n now_o reader_n i_o will_v plain_o show_v thou_o who_o be_v my_o

the_o which_o when_o thou_o have_v right_o understand_v i_o leave_v to_o thou_o to_o judge_n what_o wise_a honest_a upright_a justice_n we_o have_v in_o this_o county_n of_o durham_n for_o which_o thou_o may_v praise_v god_n if_o thou_o will_v now_o in_o my_o proceed_n i_o come_v to_o show_v thou_o who_o it_o be_v that_o appear_v to_o be_v my_o accuser_n the_o one_o call_v by_o name_n henry_n eddan_n and_o the_o other_o richard_n raw_n who_o be_v man_n fit_v for_o such_o a_o work_n be_v strong_o priestridden_a or_o if_o they_o stumble_v at_o this_o expression_n their_o understanding_n be_v so_o saddle_v and_o bridle_v by_o the_o doctrine_n of_o the_o priest_n that_o they_o have_v they_o at_o command_n in_o turn_v they_o what_o way_n they_o please_v as_o for_o richard_n raw_n i_o have_v not_o much_o to_o say_v unto_o he_o because_o i_o have_v not_o have_v any_o acquaintance_n with_o he_o but_o only_o as_o he_o appear_v against_o i_o with_o henry_n eddan_n the_o which_o as_o far_o as_o i_o can_v perceive_v by_o outward_a expression_n be_v not_o much_o but_o that_o may_v be_v because_o the_o poor_a blind_a man_n have_v but_o little_a to_o say_v open_o to_o my_o face_n therefore_o what_o he_o say_v against_o i_o when_o he_o whisper_v secret_o with_o the_o rest_n of_o the_o justice_n upon_o the_o bench_n he_o best_a know_v only_o thus_o much_o i_o be_o apt_a to_o believe_v that_o he_o be_v so_o zealous_a for_o the_o glory_n of_o his_o god_n that_o he_o will_v give_v consent_n to_o kill_v christ_n if_o he_o be_v in_o the_o flesh_n if_o he_o shall_v but_o cross_v he_o in_o his_o principle_n and_o thus_o much_o i_o can_v witness_v against_o he_o by_o his_o give_a consent_n to_o have_v i_o imprison_v for_o hold_v out_o christ_n in_o his_o divine_a nature_n which_o seem_v to_o thwart_v his_o christ_n of_o flesh_n blood_n and_o bone_n i_o will_v not_o say_v much_o more_o of_o he_o at_o present_a but_o as_o far_o as_o he_o be_v guilty_a in_o act_v against_o i_o with_o his_o fellow_n eddan_n let_v he_o read_v and_o apply_v to_o himself_o what_o hear_v i_o lay_v open_a against_o he_o as_o for_o this_o eddan_n i_o be_o somewhat_o acquaint_v both_o with_o his_o person_n and_o his_o principle_n as_o for_o his_o person_n i_o say_v nothing_o but_o only_o this_o and_o will_v not_o have_v say_v so_o much_o but_o that_o his_o action_n make_v manifest_a what_o be_v present_v to_o i_o the_o very_o first_o time_n i_o see_v he_o where_o i_o take_v good_a notice_n of_o his_o physiognomy_n which_o tell_v i_o that_o he_o be_v a_o man_n very_o much_o addict_v to_o earthly_a mindedness_n and_o malice_n and_o envy_n for_o i_o clear_o view_v all_o these_o to_o be_v figure_v out_o in_o his_o very_a face_n and_o for_o his_o principle_n i_o know_v they_o to_o be_v such_o as_o suit_n very_o well_o with_o such_o natural_a addiction_n and_o these_o be_v the_o presbytery_n principle_n the_o which_o i_o sometime_o call_v the_o murder_a principle_n for_o where_o these_o be_v they_o lead_v the_o person_n to_o persecute_v to_o very_a death_n any_o that_o will_v not_o own_o these_o principle_n witness_v his_o say_n once_o in_o a_o discourse_n to_o one_o of_o a_o contrary_a judgement_n that_o he_o be_v bind_v in_o conscience_n to_o persecute_v he_o to_o death_n because_o he_o will_v not_o go_v to_o church_n as_o he_o call_v it_o as_o be_v too_o true_o manifest_v in_o all_o place_n where_o these_o principle_n be_v accompany_v with_o power_n and_o i_o hope_v many_o in_o this_o nation_n can_v witness_v to_o this_o and_o do_v true_o know_v that_o they_o be_v as_o a_o gangrene_n in_o our_o commonwealth_n and_o will_v be_v gnaw_v at_o the_o very_a heart_n thereof_o if_o by_o any_o mean_n to_o overspread_v the_o whole_a body_n and_o when_o the_o chief_a governor_n of_o our_o land_n have_v any_o mind_n to_o persecute_v any_o for_o conscience_n sake_n let_v they_o but_o let_v loose_v the_o presbytery_n principle_n and_o give_v it_o power_n and_o it_o will_v persecute_v to_o purpose_n etc._n etc._n now_o this_o eddan_n who_o be_v very_o well_o furnish_v for_o such_o a_o work_n both_o by_o principle_n and_o by_o nature_n and_o the_o devil_n drive_v both_o he_o want_v nothing_o but_o power_n but_o be_v it_o not_o pity_v that_o such_o a_o suitable_a person_n shall_v not_o have_v power_n also_o yea_o i_o believe_v some_o thought_n so_o and_o may_v be_v he_o think_v so_o himself_o likewise_o and_o to_o come_v by_o this_o power_n i_o do_v not_o say_v that_o the_o priest_n in_o newcastle_n petition_v to_o authority_n to_o get_v he_o and_o richard_n raw_a the_o power_n they_o want_v neither_o do_v i_o say_v that_o henry_n eddan_n make_v use_v of_o some_o friend_n at_o london_n to_o get_v himself_o and_o his_o fellow_n richard_n raw_n establish_v in_o power_n no_o i_o do_v not_o say_v any_o such_o thing_n but_o they_o have_v something_o within_o they_o that_o can_v tell_v whether_o these_o thing_n be_v so_o or_o not_o and_o in_o case_n the_o priest_n in_o newcastle_n do_v so_o and_o show_v authority_n what_o suitable_a man_n they_o be_v for_o have_v power_n confer_v upon_o they_o i_o can_v blame_v they_o for_o every_o thing_n that_o have_v life_n will_v preserve_v its_o own_o life_n if_o it_o be_v with_o the_o death_n of_o its_o equal_a and_o for_o the_o priest_n i_o think_v they_o be_v not_o such_o fool_n but_o know_v what_o will_v pull_v they_o down_o and_o who_o will_v hold_v they_o up_o in_o their_o place_n and_o this_o i_o think_v that_o they_o believe_v in_o part_n and_o what_o they_o want_n of_o believe_v in_o the_o whole_a i_o can_v believe_v for_o they_o and_o upon_o my_o belief_n may_v they_o depend_v that_o if_o they_o have_v not_o authority_n and_o magistracy_n to_o uphold_v they_o down_o they_o must_v for_o god_n will_v not_o uphold_v they_o in_o the_o way_n they_o be_v in_o therefore_o they_o have_v best_o devise_v all_o mean_n possible_a by_o way_n of_o authority_n to_o stay_v themselves_o by_o or_o down_o they_o go_v root_n and_o branch_n but_o let_v i_o tell_v the_o unsent_a priest_n once_o again_o authority_n shall_v not_o be_v able_a to_o keep_v they_o from_o what_o be_v determine_v with_o god_n and_o what_o i_o have_v foretell_v they_o shall_v as_o sure_o come_v to_o pass_v as_o the_o skin_n be_v on_o their_o face_n and_o that_o ray_n of_o light_n which_o be_v in_o rise_v shall_v not_o go_v down_o until_o the_o thing_n determine_v be_v bring_v to_o pass_v for_o few_o as_o yet_o can_v see_v how_o or_o what_o will_v be_v the_o puller_n of_o they_o down_o and_o that_o peradventure_o which_o they_o least_o suspect_v shall_v be_v the_o thing_n shall_v overturn_v they_o i_o can_v do_v no_o more_o but_o give_v they_o warning_n and_o if_o they_o will_v not_o believe_v i_o can_v help_v it_o and_o if_o they_o shall_v hang_v i_o for_o my_o faithful_a deal_n with_o they_o i_o shall_v
