be_v so_o politic_a a_o tyrant_n as_o you_o will_v describe_v he_o he_o will_v never_o believe_v his_o life_n safe_a nor_o his_o kingdom_n his_o own_o while_o any_o man_n live_v much_o less_o his_o enemy_n who_o such_o a_o king_n will_v never_o trust_v of_o who_o gift_n and_o secrecy_n he_o hold_v they_o both_o nor_o be_v it_o likely_a that_o he_o who_o will_v not_o spare_v the_o life_n of_o his_o father_n to_o gain_v a_o kingdom_n shall_v spare_v the_o life_n of_o his_o enemy_n to_o secure_v it_o as_o for_o his_o dissolve_v the_o parliament_n i_o believe_v not_o only_o all_o wise_a man_n but_o all_o that_o ever_o hear_v of_o this_o will_v acquit_v he_o whether_o he_o do_v it_o to_o avoid_v the_o duke_n impeachment_n you_o can_v prove_v but_o if_o you_o can_v you_o must_v consider_v that_o in_o such_o case_n prince_n may_v as_o well_o protect_v their_o favourite_n from_o injury_n as_o justice_n since_o no_o innocence_n can_v serve_v they_o if_o they_o lie_v as_o open_v to_o the_o question_n as_o they_o do_v to_o the_o envy_n of_o men._n but_o for_o the_o better_a satisfaction_n of_o those_o you_o appeal_v to_o i_o shall_v add_v this_o it_o be_v most_o certain_a that_o this_o humour_n of_o innovation_n begin_v to_o stir_v in_o the_o first_o parliament_n of_o this_o king_n and_o grow_v to_o a_o itch_n in_o the_o commons_o at_o the_o alteration_n of_o government_n to_o which_o end_n they_o first_o resolve_v to_o pull_v down_o the_o chief_a instrument_n thereof_o the_o duke_n of_o buckingham_n but_o have_v then_o no_o scotch_a army_n nor_o act_n of_o continuance_n to_o assure_v their_o sit_v all_o the_o wit_n of_o malice_n can_v never_o invent_v a_o more_o politic_a course_n than_o to_o impeach_v he_o and_o put_v this_o article_n true_a or_o false_a into_o his_o charge_n for_o thus_o they_o be_v not_o only_o sure_a of_o the_o affection_n of_o the_o people_n who_o out_o of_o the_o common_a fate_n of_o favourite_n general_o hate_v the_o duke_n and_o be_v always_o please_v with_o the_o ruin_n of_o their_o superior_n but_o secure_v from_o the_o king_n interposition_n who_o they_o believe_v by_o this_o mean_v bind_v up_o from_o protect_v the_o duke_n though_o he_o know_v his_o innocency_n lest_o the_o envy_n and_o fancy_n of_o all_o shall_v fall_v upon_o himself_o but_o the_o king_n who_o understand_v their_o meaning_n and_o know_v this_o be_v but_o in_o order_n to_o their_o further_a attempt_n which_o always_o begin_v with_o such_o sacrifice_n sudden_o dissolve_v the_o parliament_n and_o by_o his_o wisdom_n and_o policy_n keep_v that_o calamity_n sixteen_o year_n after_o from_o the_o people_n which_o the_o very_a same_o course_n and_o fate_n of_o these_o unhappy_a time_n have_v since_o bring_v upon_o they_o but_o you_o have_v take_v more_o pain_n to_o prove_v he_o guilty_a since_o his_o death_n of_o the_o rebellion_n in_o ireland_n although_o with_o as_o little_a reason_n or_o ingenuity_n only_o you_o deal_v fair_o in_o the_o beginning_n and_o tell_v we_o what_o judgement_n and_o conscience_n we_o be_v to_o expect_v from_o you_o when_o you_o say_v as_o a_o ground_n for_o all_o your_o proof_n if_o you_o meet_v a_o man_n run_v down_o stair_n with_o a_o bloody_a sword_n in_o his_o hand_n and_o find_v a_o man_n stab_v in_o the_o chamber_n though_o you_o do_v not_o see_v this_o man_n run_v into_o the_o body_n by_o that_o man_n which_o you_o meet_v yet_o if_o you_o be_v of_o the_o jury_n you_o dare_v not_o but_o find_v he_o guilty_a of_o the_o murder_n i_o hope_v not_o before_o you_o know_v whether_o the_o man_n kill_v be_v send_v by_o the_o king_n to_o fetch_v the_o man_n you_o meet_v for_o than_o you_o may_v say_v it_o must_v be_v in_o his_o own_o defence_n true_o you_o be_v a_o subtle_a enquirer_n but_o let_v we_o hear_v some_o of_o the_o clear_a proof_n first_o he_o dare_v never_o deny_v it_o absolute_o beside_o the_o notorious_a falsehood_n of_o that_o it_o be_v most_o senseless_a to_o imagine_v that_o he_o who_o have_v wickedness_n enough_o to_o commit_v so_o horrid_a a_o act_n shall_v have_v the_o innocent_a modesty_n not_o to_o deny_v it_o when_o he_o dare_v not_o own_v it_o he_o send_v thanks_o to_o muskerry_n and_o plunket_n by_o ormond_n which_o you_o be_v confident_a his_o height_n of_o spirit_n will_v never_o have_v do_v if_o he_o have_v not_o be_v as_o guilty_a as_o themselves_o and_o may_v not_o ormond_n that_o carry_v the_o thanks_o be_v by_o the_o same_o reason_n as_o well_o prove_v guilty_a as_o the_o king_n what_o be_v next_o if_o he_o have_v not_o be_v guilty_a he_o will_v have_v make_v a_o thousand_o declaration_n and_o have_v send_v to_o all_o prince_n in_o the_o world_n for_o assistance_n against_o such_o hellhound_n and_o bloodhound_n etc._n etc._n that_o be_v impossible_a to_o be_v do_v without_o send_v to_o the_o pope_n and_o then_o you_o will_v have_v prove_v it_o clear_o indeed_o but_o the_o copy_n of_o his_o commission_n to_o the_o irish_a rebel_n be_v in_o the_o hand_n of_o the_o parliament_n it_o be_v most_o certain_a they_o never_o believe_v it_o themselves_o else_o it_o have_v not_o be_v omit_v in_o the_o charge_n but_o now_o for_o a_o argument_n to_o the_o purpose_n after_o the_o irish_a be_v proclaim_v traitor_n and_o rebel_n by_o the_o king_n their_o general_n council_n make_v a_o oath_n to_o bear_v true_a and_o faithful_a allegiance_n to_o king_n charles_n and_o by_o all_o mean_n to_o maintain_v his_o royal_a prerogative_n against_o the_o puritan_n in_o the_o parliament_n of_o england_n which_o they_o will_v never_o have_v do_v unless_o he_o have_v command_v or_o consent_v to_o the_o rebellion_n but_o observe_v then_o what_o will_v follow_v after_o the_o two_o house_n at_o westminster_n be_v proclaim_v rebel_n and_o traitor_n by_o the_o king_n they_o make_v a_o solemn_a covenant_n to_o defend_v his_o royal_a person_n right_n and_o dignity_n against_o all_o opposer_n whatsoever_o and_o therefore_o by_o the_o same_o reason_n he_o do_v command_v or_o consent_v to_o the_o war_n raise_v by_o the_o parliament_n against_o himself_o but_o do_v they_o not_o say_v they_o have_v his_o commission_n and_o call_v themselves_o the_o king_n and_o queen_n army_n but_o then_o you_o forget_v who_o they_o be_v that_o say_v so_o hellhound_n and_o bloodhound_n fiend_n and_o firebrand_n and_o bloody_a devil_n not_o to_o be_v name_v without_o fire_n and_o brimstone_n do_v you_o think_v such_o be_v not_o to_o be_v believe_v especial_o when_o they_o speak_v for_o their_o own_o advantage_n rather_o than_o the_o people_n of_o god_n the_o faithful_a of_o the_o land_n at_o westminster_n who_o likewise_o when_o they_o raise_v force_n say_v they_o do_v it_o for_o the_o king_n and_o parliament_n can_v any_o man_n in_o his_o wit_n deny_v but_o the_o king_n be_v to_o be_v believe_v before_o either_o of_o these_o and_o yet_o you_o can_v be_v persuade_v but_o his_o offer_n to_o go_v in_o person_n to_o suppress_v the_o rebellion_n be_v a_o design_n to_o return_v at_o the_o head_n of_o twenty_o or_o thirty_o thousand_o rebel_n to_o have_v destroy_v this_o nation_n that_o be_v very_o strange_a but_o first_o how_o shall_v we_o believe_v what_o you_o say_v before_o to_o show_v your_o breed_n never_o be_v boar_n so_o unwilling_o bring_v to_o the_o stake_n as_o he_o be_v to_o declare_v against_o the_o rebel_n if_o he_o offer_v to_o adventure_v his_o person_n to_o suppress_v they_o when_o you_o have_v make_v this_o agree_n in_o sense_n let_v we_o know_v how_o you_o can_v suppose_v the_o same_o person_n the_o wise_a king_n in_o christendom_n and_o yet_o so_o foolish_a to_o study_v his_o own_o destruction_n for_o who_o can_v suffer_v so_o much_o in_o the_o ruin_n of_o this_o nation_n as_o himself_o for_o his_o hinder_v the_o earl_n of_o leicester_n go_v into_o ireland_n he_o have_v much_o more_o reason_n to_o do_v so_o than_o the_o parliament_n have_v to_o hinder_v he_o and_o therefore_o you_o may_v as_o well_o conclude_v they_o guilty_a as_o he_o of_o the_o rebellion_n that_o he_o sell_v or_o exchange_v for_o arm_n and_o ammunition_n the_o cloth_n and_o provision_n send_v by_o the_o parliament_n to_o the_o protestant_n in_o ireland_n you_o must_v either_o accuse_v the_o parliament_n which_o seize_v upon_o his_o arm_n first_o and_o use_v they_o against_o he_o as_o prove_v they_o above_o the_o law_n of_o nature_n which_o i_o believe_v you_o have_v rather_o do_v that_o command_v every_o man_n to_o defend_v himself_o but_o the_o rebel_n in_o ireland_n give_v letter_n of_o mark_n for_o take_v the_o parliament_n ship_n but_o free_v the_o king_n as_o their_o very_a good_a friend_n i_o see_v you_o be_v not_o such_o a_o wizard_n at_o design_n as_o you_o pretend_v to_o be_v for_o if_o this_o be_v the_o deep_a reach_n of_o your_o
