manner_n of_o rent_n be_v levy_v by_o soldier_n no_o such_o thing_n but_o such_o rent_n as_o be_v design_v for_o payment_n of_o the_o army_n he_o prove_v by_o sir_n arthur_n terringham_n the_o lay_n of_o soldier_n once_o for_o the_o payment_n of_o a_o sum_n of_o money_n but_o sir_n arthur_n be_v demand_v whether_o it_o be_v the_o king_n rent_n or_o comprehend_v within_o the_o same_o general_a rule_n he_o can_v make_v no_o answer_n thereunto_o your_o lordship_n remember_v he_o say_v he_o do_v not_o know_v it_o and_o therefore_o probable_o it_o be_v the_o king_n rent_n and_o doubtless_o it_o be_v so_o but_o if_o he_o have_v produce_v precedent_n it_o can_v not_o be_v a_o authority_n for_o treason_n that_o if_o people_n do_v not_o appear_v to_o his_o order_n he_o must_v levy_v war_n against_o the_o king_n subject_n and_o for_o his_o extenuation_n of_o the_o war_n that_o the_o same_o be_v of_o no_o great_a danger_n there_o be_v not_o above_o five_o or_o six_o soldier_n lay_v at_o a_o time_n i_o will_v to_o god_n the_o people_n oppress_v by_o it_o have_v cause_n to_o undervalue_v it_o i_o be_o sure_a four_o or_o six_o musketeer_n be_v as_o strong_a to_o oppress_v a_o man_n as_o four_o thousand_o so_o the_o matter_n of_o fact_n be_v strong_o and_o express_o prove_v beside_o though_o there_o come_v not_o above_o four_o or_o five_o to_o a_o house_n yet_o the_o authority_n give_v to_o the_o sergeant_n be_v general_a he_o may_v have_v bring_v more_o if_o he_o have_v list_v and_o in_o truth_n he_o bring_v as_o many_o as_o the_o estate_n of_o the_o party_n will_v

be_v something_o but_o god_n forbid_v that_o the_o treason_n shall_v be_v go_v and_o the_o traitor_n not_o questionable_a if_o his_o warrant_n can_v be_v once_o put_v out_o of_o the_o way_n the_o

he_o raise_v a_o battery_n to_o secure_v and_o make_v it_o safe_a if_o he_o do_v wrong_a perhaps_o the_o complaint_n may_v come_v to_o the_o gracious_a ear_n of_o a_o king_n who_o be_v ready_a to_o give_v relief_n and_o therefore_o he_o must_v stop_v these_o cry_n and_o prevent_v these_o mean_n that_o he_o may_v go_v on_o without_o interruption_n and_o to_o that_o end_n he_o make_v proposition_n here_o that_o the_o king_n subject_n in_o ireland_n shall_v not_o come_v over_o to_o make_v complaint_n against_o minister_n of_o state_n before_o a_o address_n first_o make_v to_o himself_o it_o be_v

into_o ireland_n what_o use_v make_v he_o of_o it_o he_o engross_v the_o proceed_n of_o almost_o all_o the_o court_n of_o justice_n into_o his_o own_o hand_n and_o so_o pre-possess_v the_o king_n by_o a_o colourable_a proposition_n and_o prevent_v their_o come_n over_o before_o they_o have_v make_v their_o address_n to_o himself_o and_o then_o he_o become_v the_o wrong_a doer_n and_o issue_n proclamation_n for_o the_o hinder_n of_o the_o king_n subject_n to_o seek_v redress_n without_o his_o leave_n which_o be_v as_o great_a a_o proof_n of_o his_o design_n and_o as_o great_a a_o injury_n to_o the_o people_n govern_v under_o a_o gracious_a prince_n as_o a_o heart_n can_v conceive_v and_o what_o his_o intention_n be_v in_o exhibit_v this_o proposition_n it_o will_v appear_v in_o the_o sentence_n of_o a_o poor_a man_n one_o david_n who_o be_v censure_v and_o most_o heavy_o fine_v for_o come_v over_o into_o england_n to_o prosecute_v complaint_n against_o my_o lord_n of_o strafford_n it_o be_v true_a that_o this_o be_v not_o the_o cause_n express_v but_o this_o be_v the_o truth_n of_o the_o matter_n your_o lordship_n remember_v a_o clause_n in_o the_o order_n at_o council_n board_n whereby_o be_v set_v forth_o the_o cause_n wherefore_o the_o party_n be_v not_o sentence_v which_o i_o never_o see_v in_o a_o order_n before_o nor_o shall_v now_o but_o that_o my_o lord_n foresee_v there_o be_v danger_n in_o it_o that_o he_o may_v be_v charge_v in_o this_o place_n for_o the_o fact_n and_o therefore_o put_v in_o negative_o why_o the_o party_n be_v not_o censure_v clausula_fw-la inconsulta_fw-la inducit_fw-la suspitionem_fw-la and_o how_o defend_v he_o this_o article_n he_o say_v his_o predecessor_n issue_v proclamation_n to_o hinder_v the_o king_n subject_n from_o go_v over_o lest_o they_o shall_v join_v with_o o_o neale_n and_o tirconnell_n beyond_o sea_n and_o so_o it_o may_v be_v dangerous_a to_o the_o state_n but_o because_o they_o may_v join_v with_o foreigner_n shall_v they_o therefore_o not_o come_v to_o the_o king_n to_o make_v just_a complaint_n what_o this_o argument_n be_v i_o refer_v to_o your_o lordship_n judgement_n then_o he_o pretend_v a_o former_a precedent_n affirm_v that_o the_o like_a instruction_n be_v give_v to_o my_o lord_n of_o faulkland_n but_o be_v there_o any_o that_o none_o shall_v come_v to_o their_o

the_o nineteen_o and_o now_o when_o he_o have_v so_o plentiful_o exercise_v his_o tyranny_n over_o the_o life_n the_o liberty_n and_o the_o estate_n of_o the_o king_n subject_n a_o man_n will_v think_v he_o can_v go_v no_o further_o but_o see_v a_o tyranny_n exercise_v beyond_o that_o and_o that_o be_v over_o the_o conscience_n of_o man_n hitherto_o he_o deal_v with_o the_o outward_a man_n and_o now_o he_o offer_v violence_n to_o the_o inward_a man_n and_o impose_v a_o oath_n upon_o the_o king_n subject_n and_o so_o exercise_v a_o tyranny_n over_o the_o conscience_n of_o man_n and_o set_v aside_o the_o matter_n of_o the_o oath_n if_o he_o have_v authority_n and_o power_n to_o impose_v such_o a_o oath_n as_o he_o shall_v frame_v he_o may_v by_o the_o same_o power_n impose_v any_o oath_n to_o compel_v conscience_n he_o pretend_v a_o warrant_n from_o his_o majesty_n to_o do_v it_o but_o the_o king_n minister_n be_v to_o serve_v the_o king_n according_a to_o law_n and_o i_o dare_v be_v bold_a to_o say_v and_o we_o have_v good_a reason_n to_o thank_v god_n for_o it_o if_o any_o of_o the_o king_n minister_n tell_v he_o that_o any_o command_n he_o give_v be_v against_o law_n there_o be_v no_o doubt_n but_o in_o his_o goodness_n and_o piety_n he_o will_v withdraw_v his_o command_n and_o not_o enforce_v execution_n and_o therefore_o if_o there_o be_v a_o error_n the_o king_n be_v free_a and_o the_o minister_n to_o be_v just_o charge_v with_o it_o but_o there_o be_v no_o command_n from_o the_o king_n to_o compel_v and_o enforce_v they_o to_o take_v the_o oath_n by_o the_o power_n of_o the_o star-chamber_n to_o commit_v they_o to_o prison_n to_o impose_v heavy_a fine_n and_o tyrannize_v over_o they_o all_o which_o he_o do_v in_o the_o case_n of_o steward_n and_o now_o one_o will_v have_v think_v he_o have_v act_v his_o part_n when_o he_o have_v act_v as_o much_o as_o lay_v in_o his_o own_o power_n and_o yet_o he_o go_v beyond_o this_o he_o be_v not_o content_a to_o corrupt_v all_o the_o stream_n which_o be_v not_o a_o divert_n of_o the_o course_n as_o he_o speak_v in_o his_o answer_n for_o he_o not_o only_o turn_v the_o course_n of_o the_o water_n but_o change_v the_o nature_n of_o it_o convert_v it_o into_o poison_n a_o legal_a and_o just_a proceed_n into_o a_o tyrannical_a and_o arbitrary_a government_n which_o be_v not_o turn_v but_o corrupt_v of_o the_o clear_a and_o crystal_a stream_n to_o bitterness_n and_o death_n but_o yet_o the_o fountain_n remain_v clear_a and_o perhaps_o when_o his_o hand_n be_v take_v off_o you_o shall_v have_v the_o stream_n run_v as_o pure_a and_o uncorrupt_a as_o ever_o they_o do_v this_o be_v it_o trouble_v he_o remove_v but_o this_o obstacle_n and_o the_o work_n be_v perfect_a and_o therefore_o now_o he_o will_v go_v about_o to_o corrupt_v the_o stream_n if_o he_o can_v but_o infuse_v his_o poison_n into_o the_o king_n heart_n which_o be_v the_o fountain_n than_o all_o be_v do_v and_o now_o he_o attempt_v that_o and_o approach_v the_o
