the_o state_n of_o his_o case_n hitherto_o now_o it_o be_v possible_a be_v at_o this_o distance_n you_o may_v be_v desirous_a to_o know_v the_o reason_n of_o this_o imprisonment_n for_o the_o old_a proverb_n be_v there_o be_v no_o smoke_n but_o there_o be_v some_o fire_n but_o i_o may_v true_o say_v this_o proverb_n do_v not_o always_o hold_v true_a i_o be_o sure_a it_o do_v not_o in_o his_o case_n as_o i_o have_v often_o hear_v he_o say_v and_o will_v be_v prove_v as_o far_o as_o negative_n can_v prove_v it_o if_o ever_o it_o come_v to_o that_o i_o shall_v as_o brief_o as_o i_o can_v give_v you_o the_o conjecture_n of_o the_o town_n both_z as_o to_o his_o confinement_n and_o the_o rest_n of_o the_o protestant_n a_o more_o certain_a account_n you_o may_v expect_v when_o we_o have_v a_o parliament_n and_o not_o until_o then_o and_o when_o that_o will_v be_v god_n and_o the_o king_n only_o know_v the_o common_a enemy_n to_o all_o protestant_n the_o papist_n you_o know_v be_v always_o at_o work_n to_o bring_v about_o our_o ruin_n and_o confusion_n and_o they_o have_v ever_o since_o the_o reformation_n be_v contrive_v of_o it_o but_o god_n have_v hitherto_o disappoint_v they_o and_o i_o trust_v he_o will_v still_o but_o since_o the_o plain_a discovery_n of_o their_o general_n plot_n in_o 1678._o which_o have_v be_v own_v by_o the_o king_n and_o four_o successive_a parliament_n and_o so_o many_o of_o the_o party_n take_v into_o custody_n and_o some_o execute_v and_o most_o of_o the_o rest_n be_v by_o the_o parliament_n look_v upon_o as_o confederate_n with_o they_o they_o look_v upon_o themselves_o as_o quit_v lose_v and_o the_o most_o favour_n they_o can_v expect_v be_v to_o have_v liberty_n to_o stay_v here_o with_o the_o loss_n of_o their_o estate_n and_o some_o of_o the_o chief_a head_n of_o they_o to_o suffer_v as_o traitor_n and_o so_o be_v utter_o incapacitate_v to_o disturb_v the_o government_n any_o more_o but_o the_o jesuit_n their_o chief_a councillor_n and_o politician_n be_v loath_a to_o give_v up_o so_o fair_a a_o game_n therefore_o present_o they_o set_v their_o wit_n to_o work_v to_o prevent_v the_o further_a discovery_n of_o this_o their_o real_a plot_n by_o forge_v sham-plot_n of_o which_o by_o their_o mean_n and_o the_o devil_n help_v of_o they_o we_o have_v have_v of_o one_o kind_n or_o another_o i_o think_v no_o less_o than_o a_o dozen_o and_o i_o think_v this_o their_o last_o be_v more_o dangerous_a to_o we_o of_o this_o nation_n than_o all_o the_o rest_n and_o i_o take_v this_o last_o to_o be_v thus_o that_o their_o design_n be_v lay_v two_o way_n that_o either_o may_v serve_v their_o turn_n the_o plot_n by_o they_o lay_v be_v to_o be_v a_o protestant_a plot_n and_o the_o person_n to_o carry_v it_o on_o and_o be_v engage_v in_o it_o be_v this_o city_n and_o the_o last_o house_n of_o commons_o at_o oxford_n the_o matter_n to_o be_v swear_v what_o these_o be_v engage_v to_o do_v be_v that_o if_o the_o king_n will_v not_o pass_v such_o act_n as_o they_o will_v have_v he_o then_o that_o they_o shall_v seize_v upon_o his_o person_n and_o keep_v he_o in_o custody_n until_o such_o time_n as_o he_o shall_v do_v it_o the_o witness_n to_o prove_v this_o plot_n be_v some_o of_o the_o same_o both_o english_a and_o irish_a that_o prove_v the_o popish_a plot_n which_o by_o their_o great_a poverty_n with_o frown_n here_o and_o not_o see_v any_o likelihood_n of_o a_o parliament_n have_v by_o the_o work_n of_o the_o jesuit_n and_o their_o friend_n be_v suborn_v to_o retract_v their_o evidence_n of_o the_o popish_a plot_n and_o to_o swear_v this_o protestant_a plot_n which_o if_o it_o take_v effect_v they_o doubt_v not_o but_o at_o least_o to_o gain_v a_o act_n of_o oblivion_n if_o it_o do_v not_o gain_v their_o first_o purpose_n even_o to_o do_v all_o their_o work_n now_o they_o bring_v their_o plot_n on_o the_o stage_n and_o first_o swear_v against_o my_o lord_n howard_n of_o escrieck_n and_o he_o be_v commit_v to_o the_o tower_n the_o next_o against_o my_o lord_n shaftsbury_n as_o the_o head_n of_o the_o party_n then_o against_o one_o stephen_n college_n after_o he_o john_n rowse_n

before_o any_o further_a attempt_n shall_v be_v make_v in_o take_v up_o more_o the_o first_o they_o begin_v with_o be_v my_o lord_n howard_n of_o escrick_n and_o prefer_v a_o indictment_n against_o
