A88846	Deceptio intelectus & visus. Or the lawyers vviles unmasked Being the plain innocent mans path-way, for a speedy end at a cheap rate, in any perplexed or troublesome cause, without multitudes, or any bauling or wrangling lawyers to obscure the truth, by their jeering, and endeavouring to daunt all that shal speak either as partee, friend, witness or otherwise; which hath been too common. By Edm. Leach, of London, merchant.	Leach, Edmund, 17th century.	1652 (1652)	Wing L767A; ESTC R230379	17,520	64

in_o vain_a by_o impertinent_a and_o untrue_a repetition_n until_o the_o night_n draw_v on_o purposely_o to_o weary_v out_o the_o committee_n and_o those_o that_o stand_v about_o they_o and_o to_o

use_v by_o he_o i_o can_v and_o will_v have_v answer_v and_o clear_v on_o the_o petitioner_n behalf_n and_o leave_v his_o first_o old_a chancery_n client_n in_o the_o mist_n maze_n and_o labyrinth_n into_o which_o he_o imagine_v he_o have_v drive_v the_o petitioner_n who_o i_o doubt_v not_o but_o clear_o to_o bring_v out_o and_o as_o for_o the_o language_n he_o say_v concerning_o i_o i_o shall_v say_v but_o little_a but_o that_o i_o say_v shall_v be_v truth_n only_o and_o not_o any_o know_a untruth_n and_o i_o will_v not_o willing_o take_v or_o detain_v any_o thing_n of_o any_o man_n

to_o trouble_v the_o honourable_a committee_n or_o company_n about_o they_o nor_o now_o to_o spend_v writing_n and_o paper_n in_o vain_a but_o because_o word_n present_o go_v into_o the_o air_n and_o
