that_o be_v fit_a for_o a_o bold_a and_o dare_a enterprise_n and_o the_o lord_n castlemain_n it_o seem_v be_v willing_a to_o put_v his_o hand_n to_o the_o plough_n and_o make_v a_o weekly_a allowance_n of_o money_n in_o that_o as_o he_o have_v do_v in_o other_o affair_n of_o the_o like_a nature_n before_o he_o go_v on_o upon_o which_o account_n and_o that_o of_o the_o st._n omers_n

be_v one_o of_o the_o fair_a confession_n of_o fact_n that_o can_v possible_o be_v for_o i_o only_o charge_v his_o lordship_n with_o instruct_v of_o the_o st._n omers_n witness_n what_o they_o shall_v testify_v on_o the_o behalf_n of_o langhorn_n and_o the_o five_o jesuit_n and_o he_o tell_v we_o he_o provide_v they_o for_o his_o own_o defence_n and_o undoubted_o they_o be_v design_v to_o have_v testiff_v at_o his_o trial_n have_v they_o not_o be_v so_o often_o baffle_v which_o put_v his_o lordship_n to_o find_v out_o a_o better_a expedient_a by_o raise_v a_o scruple_n in_o the_o judge_n

own_o defence_n as_o he_o say_v be_v never_o consult_v with_o to_o know_v what_o they_o can_v or_o rather_o be_v to_o testify_v on_o the_o behalf_n of_o his_o lordship_n in_o case_n there_o have_v be_v any_o such_o occasion_n if_o so_o than_o what_o i_o have_v allege_v against_o he_o must_v be_v look_v upon_o as_o false_a and_o villainous_a but_o if_o they_o will_v but_o consider_v how_o

there_o be_v occasion_n to_o use_v he_o they_o can_v but_o believe_v much_o more_o care_n be_v take_v by_o his_o lordship_n of_o the_o st._n omers_n witness_n who_o be_v to_o give_v a_o false_a and_o forge_a testimony_n as_o its_o plain_a they_o do_v and_o which_o appear_v as_o clear_a as_o the_o sun_n to_o the_o whole_a court_n upon_o the_o trial_n of_o the_o five_o jesuit_n and_o langhorn_n to_o which_o trial_n i_o refer_v the_o reader_n for_o his_o satisfaction_n i_o say_v then_o i_o hope_v there_o be_v no_o body_n but_o will_v believe_v that_o the_o lord_n castlemaine_n can_v otherwise_o choose_v have_v provide_v they_o for_o his_o own_o defence_n but_o disburse_v money_n to_o buy_v clothes_n and_o equip_v those_o his_o novitiate_v in_o perjury_n that_o he_o allow_v they_o so_o much_o

the_o five_o jesuit_n in_o which_o sense_n let_v his_o confession_n be_v record_v to_o posterity_n he_o run_v on_o that_o she_o mrs._n cellier_n tell_v he_o one_o day_n she_o have_v take_v out_o of_o

no_o better_a a_o shift_n than_o this_o old_a one_o of_o mrs._n cellier_n which_o be_v invent_v by_o she_o for_o my_o particular_a use_n a_o story_n so_o incongruous_a and_o unlikely_a that_o none_o but_o a_o drown_v lord_n in_o a_o weak_a cause_n will_v have_v lay_v hold_v on_o which_o be_v plain_o see_v thus_o he_o say_v mrs._n cellier_n tell_v he_o she_o have_v take_v i_o out_o of_o newgate_n for_o three_o pound_n ten_o shilling_n and_o i_o say_v that_o before_o i_o be_v discharge_v out_o of_o prison_n and_o make_v fit_a for_o their_o plot_v business_n it_o cost_v they_o near_o three_o

almighty_a god_n affirm_v that_o the_o end_n of_o my_o be_v take_v out_o of_o prison_n to_o get_v in_o her_o husband_n desperate_a debt_n be_v as_o false_a and_o as_o preposterous_a a_o lie_n as_o
