all_o sober_a man_n these_o proceed_n may_v appear_v to_o be_v unjust_a and_o i_o hope_v some_o of_o you_o will_v make_v more_o conscience_n of_o your_o do_n then_o to_o pass_v judgement_n upon_o such_o a_o unrighteous_a verdict_n and_o moreover_o the_o jury_n do_v not_o try_v the_o cause_n which_o only_o ought_v to_o have_v be_v try_v which_o be_v whether_o i_o have_v speak_v true_o or_o false_o of_o richard_n mayo_n that_o be_v to_o say_v they_o ought_v to_o have_v try_v and_o that_o be_v the_o thing_n in_o controversy_n between_o we_o whether_o these_o particular_n allege_v by_o i_o against_o richard_n mayo_n be_v true_a and_o sound_a doctrine_n or_o damnable_a doctrine_n and_o error_n for_o if_o the_o particular_n mention_v be_v true_a and_o sound_a doctrine_n which_o be_v affirm_v by_o richard_n mayo_n than_o i_o have_v wrong_v he_o and_o i_o must_v confess_v it_o and_o assent_v to_o your_o judgement_n but_o if_o the_o particular_n be_v false_a doctrine_n and_o error_n than_o i_o have_v do_v he_o no_o wrong_n for_o i_o have_v speak_v nothing_o but_o the_o truth_n and_o for_o that_o how_o can_v you_o condemn_v i_o
and_o this_o be_v the_o cause_n to_o be_v try_v which_o the_o jury_n themselves_o confess_v they_o do_v not_o try_v and_o therefore_o the_o matter_n be_v not_o yet_o try_v in_o truth_n neither_o have_v i_o have_v a_o legal_a trial_n before_o you_o and_o then_o how_o can_v you_o give_v judgement_n against_o i_o be_v the_o action_n itself_o be_v so_o unequal_a and_o the_o proceed_n so_o unjust_a also_o and_o the_o matter_n yet_o not_o full_o try_v do_v but_o consider_v of_o these_o thing_n in_o the_o coolness_n of_o your_o spirit_n and_o let_v not_o i_o receive_v worse_a deal_n from_o you_o because_o i_o be_o a_o stranger_n neither_o because_o i_o be_o a_o quaker_n so_o call_v but_o deal_v just_o and_o true_o for_o i_o desire_v nothing_o else_o of_o you_o but_o true_a judgement_n for_o that_o will_v justify_v i_o and_o clear_v i_o and_o respect_v not_o person_n but_o have_v respect_n to_o the_o law_n of_o god_n which_o command_v you_o to_o hear_v and_o judge_v the_o cause_n of_o the_o poor_a and_o of_o the_o stranger_n without_o respect_n of_o person_n and_o if_o you_o give_v regard_n to_o the_o law_n of_o god_n in_o this_o matter_n you_o can_v give_v judgement_n upon_o this_o verdict_n which_o be_v thus_o unjust_o bring_v in_o by_o unrighteous_a and_o partial_a man_n as_o be_v manifest_a and_o you_o must_v either_o whole_o arrest_v judgement_n or_o at_o least_o you_o must_v bring_v it_o to_o a_o new_a trial_n else_o you_o do_v i_o much_o wrong_n and_o injustice_n and_o all_o good_a man_n will_v so_o judge_v of_o it_o and_o further_o divers_a sufficient_a reason_n have_v be_v show_v by_o man_n of_o knowledge_n in_o the_o law_n first_o against_o this_o action_n and_o also_o against_o the_o proceed_n herein_o which_o may_v be_v reason_n to_o you_o not_o to_o go_v on_o in_o judgement_n against_o i_o but_o to_o clear_v i_o and_o even_o in_o your_o own_o way_n as_o i_o may_v say_v you_o have_v be_v deal_v with_o and_o you_o have_v be_v show_v my_o innocency_n so_o that_o if_o your_o heart_n be_v not_o harden_v you_o can_v go_v any_o further_a against_o i_o but_o go_v contrary_a to_o the_o truth_n of_o my_o cause_n and_o contrary_a to_o your_o own_o law_n also_o and_o though_o it_o be_v the_o dear_a love_n and_o respect_n of_o friend_n to_o the_o truth_n in_o freeness_n of_o their_o love_n to_o i_o more_o than_o any_o desire_n of_o i_o or_o my_o knowledge_n i_o do_v own_o their_o love_n and_o justify_v it_o yet_o much_o that_o have_v be_v speak_v in_o form_n and_o trick_n of_o law_n and_o punctillio_n of_o law_n i_o do_v wave_n and_o let_v it_o pass_v and_o keep_v always_o to_o the_o naked_a truth_n of_o the_o matter_n as_o before_o lay_v down_o and_o therefore_o if_o any_o jury_n shall_v upon_o their_o oath_n justify_v richard_n mayo_n his_o doctrine_n to_o be_v true_a and_o sound_a doctrine_n and_o if_o you_o yourselves_o upon_o your_o oath_n dare_v give_v judgement_n that_o richard_n mayo_n his_o doctrine_n be_v not_o damnable_a doctrine_n and_o error_n then_o i_o must_v lie_v patient_o under_o your_o judgement_n and_o under_o the_o breach_n of_o such_o juryman_n oath_n and_o of_o your_o own_o oath_n also_o and_o therefore_o i_o demand_v of_o you_o according_a to_o right_a and_o justice_n let_v i_o be_v clear_v otherwise_o let_v i_o first_o have_v a_o fair_a trial_n before_o i_o be_v condemn_v which_o yet_o i_o have_v not_o have_v because_o the_o matter_n be_v pervert_v from_o that_o whether_o i_o have_v speak_v the_o truth_n upon_o which_o the_o true_a issue_n depend_v and_o upon_o no_o other_o thing_n whether_o i_o speak_v malicious_o be_v a_o strain_n of_o the_o cause_n to_o a_o wrong_a head_n and_o pervert_v it_o from_o its_o proper_a issue_n and_o hereby_o be_v the_o just_a cause_n of_o the_o innocent_a cloud_v over_o and_o reject_v and_o vilify_v and_o even_o betray_v into_o another_o meaning_n more_o than_o it_o ought_v to_o have_v be_v but_o it_o can_v show_v its_o face_n above_o all_o this_o and_o truth_n can_v be_v daunt_v though_o it_o may_v be_v veil_v and_o lie_v hide_v for_o a_o season_n and_o though_o i_o be_v condemn_v by_o the_o prejudice_n and_o unsaithful_a jury_n speak_v malicious_o yet_o the_o lord_n bear_v i_o witness_v to_o the_o contrary_a and_o that_o i_o have_v no_o malice_n in_o i_o against_o any_o man_n and_o i_o love_v your_o

this_o cause_n which_o be_v thus_o unjust_a and_o unequal_a in_o itself_o and_o in_o its_o proceed_n also_o for_o if_o the_o jury_n have_v try_v whether_o i_o have_v speak_v the_o truth_n or_o whether_o i_o belie_v richard_n mayo_n than_o it_o will_v easy_o have_v be_v know_v whether_o i_o speak_v malioious_o for_o if_o i_o belie_v he_o and_o if_o his_o doctrine_n be_v true_a and_o sound_a and_o not_o error_n then_o may_v it_o be_v easy_o judge_v that_o i_o speak_v malicious_o because_o i_o speak_v not_o the_o truth_n but_o if_o his_o doctrine_n allege_v by_o i_o be_v not_o true_a and_o
