the_o king_n by_o his_o great_a seal_n or_o little_a seal_n command_v that_o justice_n shall_v be_v delay_v or_o deny_v yet_o however_o the_o judge_n shall_v not_o obey_v it_o but_o proceed_v so_o i_o

cost_v so_o many_o of_o your_o ancestor_n their_o life_n to_o maintain_v i_o hope_v you_o will_v never_o go_v from_o now_o your_o lordship_n noble_a ancestor_n among_o other_o thing_n take_v great_a

i_o have_v a_o suit_n in_o westminster-hall_n that_o have_v like_a to_o have_v go_v express_o against_o i_o only_o because_o one_o of_o my_o witness_n be_v to_o gain_v 8_o l._n if_o the_o suit_n go_v

though_o your_o lordship_n will_v never_o commit_v treason_n yet_o no_o man_n can_v preserve_v himself_o from_o the_o misfortune_n that_o happen_v to_o i_o of_o be_v false_o accuse_v it_o be_v true_a my_o lord_n the_o manager_n have_v give_v a_o answer_n to_o the_o business_n of_o the_o money_n by_o say_v the_o king_n may_v give_v as_o liberal_o as_o he_o please_v but_o to_o give_v so_o great_a

though_o i_o think_v much_o more_o may_v be_v say_v by_o a_o able_a man_n to_o your_o lordship_n for_o the_o clear_n of_o himself_o i_o hope_v i_o have_v do_v it_o nay_o i_o be_o confident_a i_o

forty_o year_n ago_o to_o call_v i_o up_o to_o this_o dignity_n and_o i_o shall_v fly_v in_o the_o face_n of_o his_o son_n in_o so_o horrible_a a_o manner_n as_o these_o man_n will_v make_v i_o i_o do_v owe_v it_o to_o the_o honour_n of_o my_o father_n and_o mother_n who_o i_o think_v i_o may_v safe_o say_v be_v both_o honourable_a and_o worthy_a person_n my_o father_n be_v a_o learned_a man_n and_o a_o wise_a man_n as_o i_o may_v appeal_v to_o some_o of_o your_o lordship_n who_o know_v he_o well_o i_o say_v i_o owe_v it_o to_o their_o memory_n and_o to_o the_o honour_n of_o the_o family_n from_o whence_o i_o spring_v which_o all_o the_o world_n know_v what_o it_o be_v and_o i_o shall_v be_v a_o infamous_a man_n to_o dishonour_v they_o so_o much_o as_o to_o bear_v their_o name_n and_o commit_v treason_n my_o lord_n i_o owe_v it_o to_o my_o wife_n who_o have_v be_v a_o very_a kind_a wife_n to_o i_o as_o ever_o man_n have_v she_o be_v heiress_n at_o law_n to_o the_o great_a estate_n

will_v have_v be_v at_o this_o day_n two_o hundred_o thousand_o pound_n a_o year_n for_o it_o be_v seventeen_o thousand_o pound_n a_o year_n in_o those_o day_n penny_n rent_n beside_o other_o
