the_o reason_n why_o perfidiousness_n shall_v not_o be_v pardon_v and_o the_o reason_n be_v render_v by_o the_o foresay_a sage_n 1._o because_o that_o as_o theodoric_n the_o arian_n say_v when_o he_o

heraclemon_n which_o have_v do_v he_o so_o good_a service_n to_o be_v slay_v he_o can_v not_o believe_v that_o he_o which_o will_v betray_v his_o country_n and_o prove_v faithless_a to_o his_o own_o prince_n can_v ever_o continue_v faithful_a unto_o he_o but_o that_o upon_o the_o like_a discontent_n or_o hope_n of_o a_o great_a gain_n such_o traitor_n as_o will_v turn_v the_o leaf_n and_o sail_v with_o every_o wind_n will_v become_v as_o treacherous_a to_o their_o latter_a benefactor_n as_o they_o have_v be_v unto_o their_o former_a master_n and_o therefore_o though_o we_o shall_v forgive_v they_o as_o christian_n yet_o it_o be_v neither_o wisdom_n nor_o policy_n to_o believe_v they_o as_o friend_n because_o not_o only_o the_o fable_n of_o the_o snake_n but_o the_o son_n of_o syrach_n

faithless_a man_n continual_o object_n but_o what_o if_o the_o king_n and_o prince_n have_v promise_v pardon_n unto_o the_o traitor_n for_o some_o special_a service_n do_v unto_o they_o can_v they_o afterward_o punish_v they_o for_o their_o precedent_a offence_n unto_o other_o i_o answer_v that_o as_o cicero_n say_v sol._n sol._n every_o man_n be_v bind_v and_o much_o more_o it_o be_v for_o the_o

but_o though_o king_n and_o prince_n shall_v inviolable_o observe_v their_o word_n in_o their_o pardon_n be_v grant_v unto_o rebel_n and_o traitor_n and_o other_o malefactor_n why_o not_o to_o countenance_n and_o favour_v those_o that_o have_v be_v traitor_n and_o why_o yet_o as_o philip_n king_n of_o macedon_n answer_v lasthenes_n that_o betray_v the_o city_n of_o olynthum_n and_o augustus_n caesar_n say_v to_o rymetalces_n king_n of_o thracia_n that_o have_v forsake_v antonius_n to_o join_v with_o he_o that_o he_o love_v the_o treason_n that_o do_v he_o good_a but_o he_o can_v not_o endure_v the_o traitor_n that_o betray_v his_o master_n and_o alexander_n severus_n be_v of_o the_o same_o mind_n but_o that_o he_o join_v cruelty_n with_o his_o hatred_n unto_o the_o traitor_n for_o when_o he_o have_v entice_v many_o captain_n of_o piscennius_fw-la niger_n his_o competitor_n of_o the_o empire_n to_o disclose_v their_o master_n secret_n and_o have_v serve_v his_o turn_n of_o

conceive_v that_o they_o ought_v not_o to_o countenance_n and_o favour_v those_o that_o have_v be_v traitor_n unto_o other_o prince_n though_o they_o have_v do_v good_a service_n unto_o they_o and_o that_o for_o these_o three_o reason_n 1._o for_o that_o he_o which_o have_v turn_v one_o leaf_n can_v turn_v another_o and_o he_o that_o have_v betray_v my_o father_n may_v upon_o the_o like_a hope_n and_o surmise_n betray_v i_o likewise_o and_o he_o that_o have_v be_v a_o rebel_n know_v the_o way_n to_o become_v a_o rebel_n 2._o for_o that_o this_o honour_v and_o magnify_v of_o rebel_n and_o traitor_n to_o former_a prince_n for_o their_o good_a service_n do_v to_o latter_a master_n may_v prove_v to_o be_v a_o encouragement_n for_o other_o to_o become_v rebel_n and_o traitor_n in_o like_a manner_n against_o their_o king_n for_o when_o among_o many_o thousand_o of_o rebel_n they_o see_v but_o few_o punish_v the_o rest_n pardon_v and_o many_o of_o they_o favour_v and_o prefer_v why_o may_v not_o the_o sedition_n think_v that_o they_o shall_v either_o prevail_v or_o if_o miss_v of_o their_o enterprise_n they_o may_v escape_v the_o fortune_n of_o those_o few_o that_o shall_v be_v punish_v and_o be_v magnify_v like_o those_o that_o they_o do_v see_v thus_o reward_v 3._o for_o that_o this_o favour_v and_o countenance_v of_o those_o that_o have_v be_v rebel_n and_o false_a be_v a_o great_a offence_n and_o discouragement_n to_o those_o that_o have_v ever_o continue_v faithful_a and_o loyal_a especial_o if_o they_o see_v themselves_o postponed_a and_o neglect_v and_o therefore_o the_o king_n and_o prince_n that_o i_o tell_v you_o of_o think_v it_o neither_o wisdom_n nor_o policy_n to_o regard_n and_o favour_v those_o who_o they_o pardon_v for_o their_o treachery_n to_o their_o former_a prince_n though_o they_o have_v do_v never_o so_o good_a service_n unto_o themselves_o and_o if_o all_o king_n do_v so_o i_o believe_v few_o traitor_n will_v spring_v up_o among_o the_o people_n and_o this_o appear_v plain_o by_o our_o new_a plotter_n of_o rebellion_n and_o treason_n now_o among_o we_o in_o this_o kingdom_n of_o ireland_n for_o who_o and_o what_o be_v

be_v bloody_a murderer_n and_o rebel_n against_o their_o king_n or_o innocent_a papist_n that_o be_v both_o loyal_a unto_o their_o king_n and_o succourer_n of_o the_o protestant_n and_o now_o see_v

of_o contention_n and_o move_v the_o discontent_a to_o a_o new_a rebellion_n and_o what_o way_n do_v they_o take_v for_o this_o but_o the_o very_a same_o which_o they_o have_v learned_a and_o

all_o thing_n aright_o one_o eye_n will_v scarce_o serve_v the_o turn_n but_o they_o must_v be_v like_o these_o beast_n full_a of_o eye_n one_o eye_n to_o look_v to_o the_o complainants_n charge_n another_o to_o mark_v the_o defendant_n answer_v and_o another_o to_o observe_v the_o quirk_n and_o subtlety_n of_o the_o pleader_n and_o all_o this_o they_o must_v behold_v and_o see_v not_o
