the_o death_n of_o my_o lord_n of_o shaftsbury_n and_o they_o meet_v this_o we_o give_v you_o a_o account_n of_o first_o by_o witness_n that_o give_v you_o a_o account_n in_o general_a of_o it_o and_o

take_v notice_n how_o the_o design_n have_v fall_v upon_o the_o death_n of_o my_o lord_n shaftsbury_n that_o it_o be_v fit_a to_o carry_v it_o on_o before_o man_n inclination_n be_v cool_v for_o they_o find_v they_o be_v ready_a to_o it_o and_o have_v great_a reason_n to_o believe_v it_o because_o this_o be_v a_o business_n communicate_v to_o so_o many_o yet_o for_o all_o that_o it_o be_v

encourage_v they_o to_o go_v on_o in_o this_o conspiracy_n then_o when_o the_o six_o meet_v at_o mr._n hambden_n house_n they_o debate_v concern_v the_o place_n of_o rise_v and_o the_o time_n the_o time_n they_o conceive_v must_v be_v sudden_o before_o man_n mind_n be_v cool_v for_o now_o they_o think_v they_o be_v ready_a and_o very_a much_o dispose_v to_o it_o and_o for_o place_n they_o have_v in_o debate_n whether_o they_o shall_v rise_v first_o in_o the_o town_n or_o in_o the_o country_n or_o both_o together_o and_o for_o the_o person_n they_o think_v it_o absolute_o necessary_a for_o

they_o meet_v afterward_o at_o my_o lord_n russel_n house_n in_o february_n and_o there_o they_o have_v discourse_n to_o the_o same_o purpose_n but_o there_o they_o begin_v to_o consider_v with_o

instrumental_a to_o take_v away_o the_o life_n of_o any_o man_n that_o by_o law_n his_o life_n ought_v not_o to_o be_v take_v away_o for_o i_o have_v rather_o many_o guilty_a man_n shall_v escape_v than_o one_o innocent_a man_n suffer_v the_o question_n be_v whether_o upon_o all_o the_o evidence_n you_o have_v hear_v against_o the_o prisoner_n and_o the_o evidence_n on_o his_o behalf_n there_o be_v evidence_n sufficient_a to_o convict_v the_o prisoner_n of_o the_o high_a treason_n he_o stand_v charge_v with_o and_o as_o you_o must_v not_o be_v move_v by_o the_o denial_n of_o the_o

otherwise_o than_o as_o the_o proof_n be_v make_v out_o to_o you_o but_o it_o be_v usual_a and_o it_o be_v a_o duty_n incumbent_n on_o the_o king_n counsel_n to_o urge_v against_o all_o such_o

and_o therefore_o since_o we_o have_v be_v keep_v so_o long_o in_o this_o cause_n it_o will_v be_v amiss_o for_o i_o and_o my_o brother_n as_o they_o shall_v think_v fit_a to_o help_v your_o memory_n in_o the_o fact_n and_o discharge_v that_o duty_n that_o be_v incumbent_n upon_o the_o court_n as_o to_o the_o point_n of_o law_n this_o indictment_n be_v for_o high_a treason_n and_o be_v ground_v
