there_o be_v but_o few_o at_o my_o death_n yet_o you_o know_v not_o what_o great_a troop_n may_v come_v to_o my_o burial_n torment_n burial_n who_o shall_v accompany_v thy_o body_n to_o the_o grave_n i_o know_v not_o but_o this_o i_o know_v angel_n shall_v accompany_v thy_o soul_n to_o heaven_n but_o as_o for_o that_o blood_n s●cker_n laud_n i_o very_o believe_v except_o he_o repent_v the_o devil_n will_v accompany_v he_o to_o hell_n torment_n remember_v but_o the_o late_a great_a multitude_n tyburn_n multitude_n such_o a_o company_n will_v follow_v laud_n and_o his_o crew_n if_o they_o know_v when_o the_o king_n &_o state_n will_v hang_v they_o at_o tyburn_n that_o come_v to_o the_o fleet_n &_o attend_v m_n burton_n &_o m._n prinne_n out_o of_o the_o city_n and_o if_o any_o thing_n but_o good_a follow_v upon_o this_o you_o &_o he_o be_v the_o sole_a cause_n of_o it_o therefore_o as_o you_o will_v answer_v it_o before_o king_n and_o state_n look_v to_o it_o for_o i_o be_o my_o

notorious_a traitor_n that_o ever_o be_v in_o the_o world_n &_o may_v iusttice_n take_v place_n it_o will_v be_v prove_v that_o they_o who_o be_v now_o alive_a be_v notorious_a one_o yea_o one_o as_o

to_o such_o a_o height_n &_o fullness_n and_o they_o do_v go_v beyond_o in_o cruelty_n the_o crelst_a tyrant_n that_o ever_o be_v my_o hope_n be_v that_o their_o destruction_n &_o ruin_n be_v at_o

of_o the_o saint_n as_o have_v be_v do_v unto_o i_o for_o while_o they_o live_v he_o will_v either_o suffer_v their_o friend_n to_o come_v at_o they_o to_o relieve_v they_o or_o else_o he_o will_v allow_v they_o meantenance_n to_o preserve_v life_n in_o they_o but_o neither_o of_o these_o can_v i_o enjoy_v also_o he_o will_v dispute_v with_o they_o himself_o and_o send_v for_o other_o likewise_o to_o do_v it_o and_o use_v all_o mean_n to_o win_v they_o to_o himself_o but_o none_o of_o these_o have_v i_o yet_o find_v though_o i_o have_v often_o desire_v it_o and_o promise_v to_o recant_v if_o it_o can_v be_v show_v that_o i_o hold_v any_o error_n again_o he_o will_v take_v away_o their_o line_n worse_o line_n without_o doubt_v the_o prelate_n will_v do_v so_o too_o but_o be_v restrain_v now_o it_o be_v humlby_o desire_a that_o they_o who_o think_v it_o not_o fit_a that_o the_o bishop_n shall_v have_v their_o will_n in_o take_v our_o line_n away_o that_o they_o suffer_v they_o not_o in_o the_o mean_a time_n to_o use_v we_o worse_o if_o they_o break_v any_o of_o the_o law_n or_o will_v not_o submit_v unto_o they_o but_o though_o i_o have_v not_o break_v any_o of_o the_o king_n law_n and_o have_v offer_v so_o fair_a as_o i_o have_v do_v and_o have_v desire_v &_o long_v to_o meet_v with_o death_n yet_o can_v i_o not_o be_v rid_v of_o my_o misery_n but_o you_o keep_v i_o in_o a_o torment_a other_o torment_a when_o these_o tormentor_n feel_v hell_n torment_n than_o they_o will_v know_v what_o it_o be_v to_o torment_v other_o condition_n full_a of_o

of_o the_o land_n and_o the_o word_n all_o word_n they_o can_v show_v as_o much_o word_n of_o god_n for_o what_o they_o do_v as_o they_o do_v show_v mercy_n and_o goodness_n in_o their_o action_n and_o that_o be_v in_o both_o none_o at_o all_o of_o god_n will_v show_v i_o my_o offence_n i_o will_v never_o submit_v nor_o recant_v in_o the_o least_o while_o breath_n be_v in_o my_o body_n and_o therefore_o it_o be_v but_o in_o vain_a to_o h●pe_v for_o it_o for_o if_o he_o and_o i_o shall_v live_v together_o as_o long_o as_o methusalah_n do_v which_o be_v almost_o a_o thousand_o year_n yet_o he_o shall_v never_o get_v i_o to_o go_v against_o the_o sweet_a peace_n of_o a_o good_a conscience_n or_o recant_v that_o which_o i_o be_o persuade_v be_v a_o truth_n yea_o if_o he_o shall_v exercise_v all_o the_o cruelty_n in_o the_o world_n upon_o i_o though_o he_o shall_v lock_v i_o in_o a_o iron_n chest_n that_o i_o can_v neither_o stir_v hand_n nor_o foot_n and_o feed_v i_o with_o

my_o tormentor_n look_v to_o it_o as_o they_o will_v answer_v it_o for_o i_o have_v hear_v that_o the_o honourable_a lord_n image_n lord_n howsoever_o the_o bishop_n do_v cause_n the_o godly_a to_o

carry_v god_n own_o image_n which_o have_v be_v make_v acquaint_v with_o my_o cruel_a usage_n protest_v they_o will_v not_o believe_v that_o the_o warden_n deal_v so_o with_o i_o this_o with_o much_o
