moan_n be_v strange_a and_o rare_a for_o i_o suppose_v you_o shall_v find_v few_o that_o for_o their_o own_o particular_a will_v cumber_v you_o with_o such_o a_o care_n yet_o such_o i_o protest_v have_v be_v my_o greedy_a desire_n and_o hungry_a will_n that_o of_o your_o consultation_n may_v have_v fall_v out_o some_o other_o mean_n to_o work_v my_o safety_n join_v with_o your_o assurance_n then_o that_o for_o which_o you_o be_v become_v such_o earnest_a suitor_n as_o i_o protest_v i_o must_v needs_o use_v complaint_n though_o not_o of_o you_o but_o unto_o you_o and_o of_o the_o cause_n for_o that_o i_o do_v perceive_v by_o your_o advice_n prayer_n and_o desire_n there_o fall_v out_o this_o accident_n that_o only_o my_o iniverer_n bane_n must_v be_v my_o life_n surety_n but_o if_o any_o there_o live_v so_o wicked_a of_o nature_n to_o suppose_v that_o i_o prolong_v this_o time_n only_o proforma_fw-la to_o the_o intent_n to_o make_v a_o show_n of_o clemency_n thereby_o to_o set_v my_o praise_n to_o be_v wire_n drawer_n to_o lengthen_v they_o the_o more_o they_o do_v i_o so_o great_a a_o wrong_n as_o they_o can_v hardly_o recompense_v or_o if_o any_o person_n there_o be_v that_o think_v or_o imagine_v that_o the_o least_o vayneglorious_a thought_n have_v draw_v i_o further_o herein_o they_o do_v i_o as_o open_a injury_n as_o ever_o be_v do_v to_o any_o live_a

or_o altogether_o slip_v they_o over_o with_o silence_n shall_v now_o be_v force_v to_o this_o proceed_n against_o such_o a_o person_n i_o have_v beside_o during_o my_o reign_n see_v and_o hear_v many_o opprobrious_a book_n and_o pamphlet_n against_o i_o my_o realm_n and_o state_n accuse_v i_o to_o be_v a_o tyrant_n i_o thank_v they_o for_o their_o alm_n i_o believe_v therein_o their_o meaning_n be_v to_o tell_v i_o news_n and_o news_n it_o be_v to_o i_o in_o deed_n i_o will_v it_o be_v as_o strange_a to_o hear_v of_o their_o impiety_n what_o will_v they_o not_o now_o say_v when_o it_o shall_v be_v spread_v that_o for_o the_o safety_n of_o her_o life_n a_o maiden_n queen_n can_v be_v content_a to_o spill_v the_o blood_n even_o of_o her_o own_o kinswoman_n i_o may_v therefore_o

give_v i_o so_o vile_a a_o mind_n yea_o i_o protest_v i_o be_o so_o far_o from_o it_o that_o for_o my_o own_o life_n i_o will_v not_o touch_v she_o neither_o have_v my_o care_n be_v so_o much_o bend_v how_o to_o prolong_v i_o as_o how_o to_o preserve_v both_o which_o i_o be_o right_a sorry_a be_v make_v so_o hard_o yea_o so_o impossible_a i_o be_o not_o so_o void_a of_o judgement_n as_o not_o to_o see_v my_o own_o peril_n nor_o yet_o so_o ignorant_a as_o not_o to_o know_v it_o be_v in_o nature_n a_o foolish_a course_n to_o cherish_v a_o sword_n to_o cut_v my_o own_o throat_n nor_o so_o careless_a as_o not_o to_o weigh_v that_o my_o life_n daily_o be_v in_o hazard_n but_o this_o i_o do_v consider_v that_o many_o a_o man_n will_v put_v his_o life_n in_o danger_n for_o the_o safeguard_n of_o a_o king_n i_o do_v not_o say_v that_o so_o will_v i_o but_o i_o pray_v you_o think_v that_o i_o have_v think_v upon_o it_o but_o since_o so_o many_o have_v both_o write_v and_o speak_v against_o i_o i_o pray_v you_o give_v i_o leave_v to_o say_v somewhat_o for_o myself_o and_o before_o you_o return_v to_o your_o country_n let_v you_o know_v for_o what_o a_o one_o you_o have_v pass_v so_o careful_a thought_n wherein_o as_o i_o think_v myself_o infinite_o behold_v unto_o you_o all_o that_o seek_v to_o preserve_v my_o life_n by_o all_o the_o mean_v you_o may_v so_o i_o protest_v unto_o you_o that_o there_o live_v no_o prince_n that_o ever_o shall_v be_v more_o mindful_a to_o requite_v so_o good_a desert_n and_o as_o i_o perceyve_v you_o have_v keep_v your_o old_a

for_o ever_o i_o will_v acknowledge_v it_o while_o there_o be_v any_o breath_n leave_v i_o although_o i_o may_v not_o justify_v but_o may_v just_o condemn_v my_o sundry_a fault_n and_o sin_n to_o god_n yet_o for_o my_o care_n in_o this_o government_n let_v i_o acquaint_v you_o with_o my_o intent_n when_o first_o i_o take_v the_o sceptre_n my_o title_n make_v i_o not_o forget_v the_o giver_n and_o therefore_o begin_v as_o it_o become_v i_o with_o such_o religion_n as_o both_o i_o be_v bear_v in_o breed_v in_o &_o i_o trust_v shall_v die_v in_o although_o i_o be_v not_o so_o simple_a as_o not_o to_o know_v what_o danger_n and_o peril_n so_o great_a a_o alteration_n may_v procure_v i_o how_o many_o great_a prince_n of_o the_o contrary_a opinion_n will_v attempt_v all_o they_o may_v against_o i_o and_o general_o what_o enmity_n i_o shall_v breed_v unto_o myself_o which_o all_o i_o regard_v not_o know_v that_o he_o for_o who_o sake_n i_o do_v it_o might_n and_o will_v defend_v i_o for_o which_o it_o be_v that_o ever_o since_o i_o have_v be_v so_o dangerous_o prosecute_v as_o i_o rather_o marvel_v that_o i_o be_o then_o muse_v that_o i_o shall_v not_o be_v if_o it_o be_v not_o god_n holy_a hand_n that_o continue_v i_o beyond_o all_o other_o expectation_n then_o enter_v i_o further_o into_o the_o school_n of_o experience_n bethink_v what_o it_o fit_v a_o king_n to_o do_v and_o there_o i_o see_v he_o scant_o be_v well_o furnish_v if_o either_o he_o lack_v justice_n temperance_n magnanimity_n or_o judgement_n as_o for_o the_o two_o latter_a i_o will_v not_o boast_n my_o sex_n do_v not_o permit_v it_o but_o for_o the_o two_o first_o this_o dare_v i_o say_v among_o my_o subject_n i_o never_o know_v a_o difference_n of_o person_n where_o right_o be_v one_o nor_o never_o to_o my_o knowledge_n prefer_v for_o favour_n who_o i_o think_v not_o fit_a for_o worth_n nor_o bend_v my_o ear_n to_o credit_n a_o tale_n that_o first_o be_v tell_v i_o nor_o be_v so_o rash_a to_o
