this_o point_n that_o the_o proof_n must_v follow_v the_o substance_n not_o the_o form_n the_o judge_n all_o rise_a affirm_v this_o to_o be_v true_a this_o my_o lord_n be_v certain_a the_o law_n give_v form_n in_o indictment_n but_o only_o substance_n in_o proof_n i_o know_v my_o lord_n high_a steward_n and_o you_o the_o lord_n the_o peer_n that_o you_o can_v behold_v this_o lord_n at_o the_o

from_o your_o number_n without_o good_a evidence_n we_o my_o lord_n that_o be_v to_o speak_v against_o he_o have_v receive_v a_o admonition_n from_o the_o king_n to_o use_v no_o invective_n but_o

the_o greatness_n of_o the_o crime_n not_o to_o weigh_v or_o press_v you_o down_o my_o lord_n but_o to_o show_v that_o the_o king_n be_v bind_v by_o his_o oath_n to_o bring_v this_o cause_n to_o judgement_n though_o you_o have_v be_v the_o signet_n of_o his_o right_a hand_n the_o second_o shall_v be_v what_o proof_n i_o hold_v to_o be_v competent_a in_o this_o case_n three_o i_o will_v

urge_v thus_o first_o it_o be_v murder_n the_o first_o record_n we_o ever_o read_v of_o in_o the_o bible_n be_v a_o sentence_n upon_o murder_n and_o though_o cain_n be_v not_o punish_v with_o death_n in_o respect_n of_o the_o primogenite_fw-la or_o some_o other_o secret_a cause_n which_o god_n reserve_v to_o himself_o yet_o he_o be_v sentence_v although_o joab_n sentence_n for_o the_o murder_n of_o abner_n be_v respite_v yet_o it_o be_v not_o forget_v no_o sanctuary_n can_v relieve_v he_o he_o be_v take_v from_o the_o horn_n of_o the_o altar_n in_o the_o second_o table_n the_o first_o

the_o first_o table_n so_o than_o this_o be_v the_o first_o of_o the_o second_o my_o second_o aggravation_n be_v that_o this_o murder_n be_v by_o poison_n poison_n be_v a_o foreign_a practice_n fit_a
