their swearing against me they have secured their own Lives and Estates and made my blood the price of theirs I confess I was so unfortunate and unhappy as to be invited by Colonel Rumsey one of the witnesses against me to some meetings where some things were discoursed of in order to the asserting our Liberties and properties which we looked upon to be violated and invaded But it was he and Mr West and some gentlemen that are fled who were the great promoters of those Meetings I was near a quarter of a year ill of the Gout and during that time Mr West often visited me and still his discourse would be concerning Lopping the Two Sparks That was the word he used meaning the King and the Duke and proposed it might be done at a Play This was his frequent discourse for he said Then they would dye in their calling it was his very Expression He bought Arms to do it with without any direction of mine I never saw the Armes nor I never saw the men that were to do it though they said they had fifty imployed to that end I told several of them That the Killing the King would carry such a blemish and stain with it as would descend to posterity that I had Eight Children that I was loath should be blemished with it and withall I was confident the Duke of Monmouth would revenge his Fathers Blood if it were but to vindicate himself from having any hand in it Mr. West presently told me that the Duke of Monmouth did not refuse to give an Engagement that he would not punish those that should kill the King And now I desire to forgive all the World from the very bottom of my heart and I pray God of his mercy from my heart to forgive them even Mr. Shepherd who delivered me up who promised to carry me into Holland but instead of that he brought me into the condition wherein I now am I do desire with all my heart to forgive the Witnesses and withal do earnestly beg that they may be observed that some remarks may be set upon them whether their End be Peace and that they die the common death of all men Certainly though it be the Law of the Land I ought to die and the King may justly and reasonably put me to death for being in those meetings where a War was debated yet I think these men are guilty of my Blood that were as deep in as I and have betrayed me and taken it away Then in the next place I beg leave Mr. Sheriff to speak one short word of Advice to my Friends that hath been often given to me though I was not so fortunate and so happy as to take it and that is That they would neither hear any man speak nor speak themselves that which they would not have repeated for there is no such thing as Faith in man to man whatever there is in man to God either the Tears of a Wife or a Family of little helpless Children something or other will tempt and provoke men to betray one another When God hath a work to do he will not want Instruments for he can make them nor will he want a way to do it for he can contrive it and bring it to pass And I do most heartily desire and my earnest Prayer to the Almighty is That this may be the last Blood spilt upon this account I know Acts of Indulgence and Mercy in the King would make him much easier in his Government and would make his people sit much easier under it and that the Lord may encline his heart to mercy ought to be the Prayer of every good man What hath happened and what hath been the present occasion of our Calamity I suppose every man knows what provocations have been on the one hand fears and necessities jealousies and sufferings of the other I will not intermeddle with resolving to use my utmost endeavour to make that Peace and Reconciliation with my God which is impossible for me to make with man and to make it my hearty Prayer to the Great God before whom I am in little time to appear That he would stench this issue of Blood and find out some other way to preserve these Kingdoms in Unity and Peace to the Honour and Glory of his Great Name and the eternal comfort of his people One word Mr. Sheriff I desire leave to speak as to Ireland because the King prest it hard upon me and several people have been with me about Ireland how far Ireland was concerned in this matter I do averr here as in the presence of God before whom I am now going to appear That I do not know an English-man nor Protestant in Ireland engaged in it What I did know was only of one Scotish Gentleman in the North and the King knows it but he says he does not believe it For they that were concerned I was never in any of their Councils I never saw any of those Lords but the Duke of Monmouth and that was I believe above six months ago I never saw nor spoke with one Lord only my Lord Howard I heard my Lord Howard say that they did not value Ireland for it must follow England I have not more to say Mr. Sheriff But truly you will do an act of a great deal of Charity if you will prevail with the King for an Act of Indulgence and Liberty to his people I think so and so the Lord have mercy upon me Dr. Cartwright You blame them for that which is their Vertue and not their Crime that they have been Witnesses for the King Walcot I was not for contriving the death of the King if you 'll believe me Dr. Cartwright You blame them for betraying of you in contriving the War upon which the Death of the King must have followed if your Treason had gone forward for else you could not have defended your self from that Justice to which he hath brought you and therefore for you to lay that as a Crime upon your Witnesses is indeed very strange Walcot Sir I think it was but reasonable that I should suffer that is due from Justice and reasonable by the Law but these men they did not come in against me till they did it to save themselves Dr. Cartwright Better late than never a man had better save his soul and body too than die as now you do for Crimes that ought to make every good mans heart relent and therefore for your blaming them it was for that which was their duty to do they have not committed a Crime in that but a very meritorious act Walcot They have revealed it with that aggravating circumstance which I think no rational man will be guilty of Dr. Cartwright That circumstance which you call aggravating is no aggravation at all That is rather a mitigation of your Crime to make them believe that you were tenderer of the Kings person than to shoot him when he was not armed
