the_o animadversion_n and_o remark_n upon_o colonel_n sydney_n paper_n answer_v we_o live_v in_o a_o wonder-working_a age_n wherein_o death_n the_o ultimate_a execution_n of_o the_o law_n be_v not_o deem_v sufficient_a for_o the_o punishment_n of_o a_o malefactor_n but_o his_o dead_a ash_n must_v also_o be_v disturb_v with_o the_o animadversion_n and_o remark_n of_o every_o witty_a and_o wanton_a pen._n the_o good_a old_a rule_n de_fw-fr mortuis_fw-la nil_fw-la nisi_fw-la bonum_fw-la seem_v to_o be_v quite_o antiquate_v there_o be_v not_o one_o that_o suffer_v upon_o account_n of_o the_o late_a hellish_a popish_a plot_n though_o at_o their_o death_n they_o deny_v all_o effectual_o and_o assert_v their_o own_o innocence_n with_o all_o protestation_n imaginable_a yet_o some_o of_o they_o as_o the_o five_o jesuit_n etc._n etc._n express_v the_o common_a english_a saying_n of_o the_o child_n unborn_a and_o the_o like_a have_v their_o last_o speech_n for_o that_o reason_n animadvert_v upon_o and_o when_o langhorne_n and_o the_o late_a lord_n stafford_n in_o their_o speech_n give_v no_o such_o occasion_n then_o matter_n be_v invent_v for_o the_o animadverter_n to_o work_v upon_o as_o that_o langhorne_n be_v discipline_v or_o whip_v the_o lord_n stafford_n be_v keep_v drink_v or_o intoxicate_v with_o spirit_n and_o brandy_n nay_o even_o the_o late_a earl_n of_o essex_n though_o he_o be_v his_o own_o executioner_n and_o die_v as_o private_a and_o quiet_a as_o be_v possible_a without_o one_o word_n of_o a_o speech_n yet_o oh_o monstrous_a matter_n be_v also_o invent_v for_o animadversion_n upon_o his_o death_n it_o be_v true_a the_o first_o three_o viz._n walcot_n hone_n and_o rouse_n that_o be_v execute_v for_o this_o fanatical_a conspiracy_n escape_v their_o animadvert_n and_o remark_v pen_n but_o the_o reason_n be_v plain_a they_o at_o the_o gallow_n make_v their_o own_o speech_n and_o therein_o confess_v the_o conspiracy_n and_o submit_v willing_o now_o the_o loyal_a party_n disdain_v to_o triumph_n over_o dead_a man_n according_a to_o their_o wont_a modesty_n be_v silent_a and_o as_o for_o the_o whig_n they_o be_v otherwise_o employ_v lay_v all_o their_o head_n together_o how_o to_o shame_n the_o conspiracy_n itself_o and_o to_o render_v it_o to_o the_o mobile_n a_o mere_a story_n and_o trick_n of_o state_n the_o contrary_a whereof_o these_o three_o man_n speech_n and_o confession_n sufficient_o evince_v and_o therefore_o they_o be_v very_o desirous_a they_o shall_v rest_v in_o oblivion_n but_o when_o one_o of_o the_o top_n of_o the_o party_n the_o late_a lord_n russel_n come_v to_o die_v and_o he_o have_v with_o the_o assistance_n of_o his_o scotch_a ghostly_a father_n compile_v his_o write_a speech_n and_o deliver_v it_o to_o the_o sheriff_n it_o no_v soon_o appear_v in_o the_o world_n but_o lord_n how_o many_o pen_n be_v present_o employ_v to_o animadvert_v and_o remark_n upon_o it_o though_o i_o must_v needs_o confess_v there_o be_v some_o reason_n for_o so_o do_v for_o his_o lordship_n upon_o delivery_n of_o that_o paper_n speak_v word_n to_o the_o sheriff_n contradictory_n to_o the_o purport_n thereof_o say_v he_o know_v of_o no_o plot._n and_o yet_o in_o the_o paper_n confess_v the_o conspiract_n and_o beside_o the_o paper_n itself_o be_v so_o stuff_v with_o contradiction_n evasion_n and_o equivocation_n that_o his_o lordship_n seem_v to_o have_v out_o strip_v the_o whole_a college_n of_o jesuit_n in_o these_o faculty_n but_o pray_v gentleman_n how_o come_v colonel_n sydney_n paper_n to_o be_v animadvert_v and_o remark_v upon_o when_o it_o be_v neither_o entitle_v his_o last_o speech_n nor_o so_o much_o as_o look_n like_o a_o speech_n for_o there_o be_v neither_o confession_n nor_o denial_n in_o the_o whole_a paper_n and_o if_o these_o light_n and_o nimble_a penman_n have_v consider_v the_o second_o paragraph_n in_o the_o paper_n they_o may_v have_v perceive_v it_o a_o flat-bar_n to_o any_o animadvert_n upon_o it_o the_o paragraph_n be_v thus_o moreover_o we_o live_v in_o a_o age_n that_o make_v truth_n pass_v for_o treason_n i_o dare_v not_o say_v any_o thing_n contrary_a unto_o it_o and_o the_o ear_n of_o those_o that_o be_v about_o i_o will_v probable_o be_v find_v too_o tender_a to_o hear_v it_o my_o trial_n and_o condemnation_n do_v sufficient_o evidence_n this_o now_o mr._n animadverter_n you_o shall_v first_o have_v find_v out_o the_o relative_n to_o the_o first_o it_o and_o the_o last_o word_n this_o in_o the_o paragraph_n and_o then_o have_v make_v sense_n if_o you_o can_v of_o the_o whole_a before_o you_o have_v trouble_v yourself_o to_o animadvert_v upon_o it_o i_o perceive_v you_o seem_v mighty_a angry_a with_o the_o colonel_n for_o the_o ill_a word_n he_o in_o the_o next_o paragraph_n give_v the_o lord_n howard_n i_o must_v agree_v they_o be_v very_o uncharitable_a one_o and_o very_o unfit_a for_o a_o die_a man_n to_o utter_v especial_o any_o who_o profess_v christianity_n which_o enjoin_v all_o its_o disciple_n not_o only_o to_o forgive_v but_o to_o pray_v for_o their_o enemy_n as_o they_o expect_v their_o prayer_n shall_v be_v hear_v and_o their_o sin_n forgive_v but_o i_o suppose_v the_o colonel_n be_v in_o a_o dogged_a ill_a humour_n when_o he_o write_v this_o paragraph_n however_o you_o may_v have_v observe_v he_o be_v so_o much_o a_o gentleman_n as_o not_o to_o tell_v a_o lie_n and_o therefore_o as_o i_o suppose_v can_v not_o deny_v the_o least_o jota_n the_o lord_n howard_n evidence_v against_o he_o at_o his_o trial_n and_o from_o thence_o all_o mankind_n without_o breach_n of_o charity_n may_v conclude_v that_o his_o lordship_n swear_v nothing_o but_o plain_a and_o pregnant_a truth_n the_o consequence_n whereof_o natural_o be_v that_o colonel_n sidney_n be_v a_o traitor_n and_o deserve_v to_o suffer_v as_o such_o and_o i_o can_v find_v by_o his_o paper_n that_o he_o himself_o be_v of_o any_o other_o opinion_n now_o since_o the_o protestant_a church_n of_o england_n with_o all_o its_o true_a son_n teach_v profess_v and_o practice_n according_a to_o the_o holy_a scripture_n and_o the_o example_n of_o our_o bless_a lord_n and_o saviour_n and_o his_o apostle_n that_o king_n be_v god_n anoint_v and_o god_n vicegerent_n that_o their_o function_n and_o person_n be_v exceed_o sacred_a and_o not_o to_o be_v approach_v but_o with_o a_o untouched_a admiration_n what_o if_o for_o quieness_n sake_n and_o to_o comply_v with_o the_o colonel_n ill_a humour_n we_o grant_v he_o his_o whim_n wham_n that_o the_o right_n and_o power_n of_o magistrate_n in_o every_o country_n be_v that_o which_o the_o law_n of_o that_o country_n make_v it_o to_o be_v i_o can_v see_v any_o great_a hurt_n in_o it_o since_o even_o the_o law_n of_o england_n do_v not_o only_o confirm_v the_o church_n of_o england_n in_o the_o above_o mention_v doctrine_n and_o practice_n but_o do_v further_o avow_v and_o declare_v that_o the_o crown_n of_o england_n be_v a_o imperial_a crown_n that_o the_o king_n be_v supreme_a in_o all_o cause_n and_o over_o all_o person_n etc._n etc._n that_o the_o king_n can_v do_v no_o wrong_n that_o it_o be_v not_o lawful_a upon_o any_o account_n whatsoever_o to_o take_v up_o arm_n against_o the_o king_n or_o any_o commissionated_a by_o he_o that_o neither_o the_o people_n collective_a or_o representative_a have_v any_o coordinate_a power_n with_o much_o less_o jurisdiction_n over_o the_o king_n and_o the_o like_a we_o may_v very_o well_o hope_v that_o though_o our_o modern_a whig_n according_a to_o the_o principle_n and_o practice_n of_o those_o in_o 40._o and_o 41._o and_o the_o late_a cargalite_n in_o scotland_n seem_v to_o have_v stifle_v their_o conscience_n as_o to_o god_n law_n in_o these_o particular_n yet_o even_o these_o humane_a law_n may_v be_v sufficient_a to_o bridle_v and_o curb_v the_o unruly_o spirit_n of_o they_o all_o or_o to_o send_v they_o after_o the_o colonel_n and_o his_o old_a companion_n harrison_n scott_n cook_n etc._n etc._n but_o how_o come_v you_o animadverter_n to_o appropriate_v all_o idol_n and_o idolatry_n to_o popery_n whenas_o it_o seem_v most_o plain_a that_o this_o doughty_a colonel_n by_o the_o idol_n and_o idolatry_n in_o his_o paper_n aim_v at_o monarchy_n and_o hierarchy_n and_o upon_o that_o account_n one_o may_v fancy_v the_o colonel_n speak_v to_o his_o man_n brethren_n and_o father_n friend_n countryman_n and_o stranger_n at_o the_o head_n of_o a_o new_a raise_v regiment_n in_o like_a manner_n the_o animadverter_n have_v take_v a_o great_a deal_n of_o pain_n to_o interpret_v the_o collonel_n paper_n before_o he_o find_v out_o the_o deity_n to_o who_o the_o paper_n be_v direct_v for_o as_o for_o the_o god_n by_o who_o king_n reign_n the_o god_n of_o peace_n etc._n etc._n i_o can_v find_v by_o the_o paper_n that_o the_o colonel_n mean_v any_o such_o and_o therefore_o it_o may_v be_v suppose_v he_o admire_v mars_n for_o i_o find_v by_o his_o principle_n and_o practice_n he_o be_v a_o utter_a enemy_n to_o venus_n now_o i_o be_o so_o far_o from_o envy_v the_o colonel_n in_o his_o imaginary_a happiness_n in_o be_v single_v out_o as_o a_o witness_n for_o the_o old_a cause_n in_o which_o he_o be_v from_o his_o youth_n engage_v and_o for_o which_o his_o god_n have_v so_o often_o and_o wonderful_o declare_v himself_o that_o i_o hearty_o wish_v that_o every_o mother_n son_n in_o the_o three_o kingdom_n that_o still_o obstinate_o retain_v the_o same_o affection_n for_o that_o cause_n and_o be_v so_o malicious_o or_o wilful_o blind_v either_o not_o to_o see_v or_o else_o do_v envy_v the_o great_a plenty_n peace_n ease_n and_o happiness_n we_o enjoy_v under_o our_o most_o excellent_a prince_n the_o best_a of_o government_n that_o they_o may_v be_v all_o single_v out_o and_o forthwith_o compel_v to_o give_v their_o evidence_n in_o the_o same_o manner_n as_o this_o their_o decease_a brother_n colonel_n sidney_n have_v do_v the_o animadverter_n have_v do_v well_o to_o leave_v it_o to_o the_o gentleman_n of_o the_o long_a robe_n to_o answer_v so_o much_o of_o the_o paper_n as_o concern_v they_o but_o i_o hope_v they_o have_v better_o and_o more_o profitable_a employment_n than_o to_o spend_v their_o time_n or_o pain_n with_o the_o insolence_n and_o impertinency_n of_o every_o boutifeu_n and_o now_o you_o animadverter_n and_o remarker_n if_o this_o that_o i_o have_v here_o say_v be_v not_o sufficient_a to_o deter_v you_o from_o
