no_o expectance_n of_o more_o than_o a_o single_a testimony_n fortify_v with_o circumstance_n some_o time_n before_o his_o lordship_n give_v over_o his_o former_a fervour_n or_o if_o it_o shall_v be_v admit_v that_o there_o be_v no_o improbality_n of_o such_o a_o unwilfull_a mistake_n in_o mr._n secretary_n vane_n than_o it_o can_v be_v deny_v but_o that_o a_o other_o counsellor_n of_o that_o

mr._n secretary_n to_o give_v himself_o a_o good_a reason_n why_o that_o ground_n of_o his_o accusation_n that_o spur_n of_o his_o prosecution_n that_o basis_n of_o his_o judgement_n of_o the_o earl_n of_o strafford_n as_o unto_o treason_n shall_v be_v quite_o vanish_v away_o to_o his_o understanding_n so_o soon_o as_o he_o know_v the_o note_n be_v sir_n henry_n vane_n which_o till_o that_o

for_o in_o the_o scale_n of_o my_o weak_a judgement_n there_o be_v no_o such_o difference_n in_o the_o weight_n of_o two_o counsellor_n note_n especial_o those_o which_o prove_v to_o be_v mr._n secretary_n vane_n have_v be_v at_o last_o though_o slow_o confirm_v by_o his_o memory_n upon_o oath_n without_o help_n of_o his_o paper_n whereas_o those_o of_o some_o other_o counsellor_n may_v have_v prove_v inferior_a in_o those_o two_o great_a credentiall_a circumstance_n for_o aught_o his_o lordship_n have_v then_o hear_v or_o have_v reason_n to_o imagine_v for_o it_o will_v not_o help_v his_o lordship_n to_o say_v that_o he_o have_v express_v himself_o in_o those_o wary_a term_n that_o to_o his_o understanding_n that_o ground_n be_v quite_o vanish_v away_o as_o unto_o treason_n towards_o the_o legal_a proof_n whereof_o a_o single_a witness_n be_v no_o better_a than_o none_o because_o no_o note_n can_v have_v supply_v the_o defect_n of_o another_o witness_n and_o all_o the_o rest_n of_o the_o junto_n have_v already_o upon_o their_o oath_n remember_v nothing_o of_o this_o matter_n before_o his_o lordship_n change_v his_o judgement_n and_o for_o aught_o he_o can_v know_v may_v have_v continue_v to_o do_v so_o not_o withstand_v the_o production_n of_o any_o of_o their_o note_n which_o they_o upon_o their_o re-examination_n may_v also_o have_v evade_v as_o his_o lordship_n will_v these_o of_o mr._n secretary_n so_o that_o upon_o the_o whole_a matter_n have_v this_o particular_a of_o the_o irish_a army_n be_v the_o sole_a charge_n and_o prove_v no_o otherwise_o then_o his_o lordship_n imagine_v it_o will_v have_v be_v that_o be_v to_o say_v by_o sir_n henry_n vane_n single_a testimony_n without_o his_o note_n and_o some_o other_o counsellor_n nore_v without_o his_o testimony_n i_o can_v see_v how_o his_o lordship_n can_v judicious_o have_v condemn_v the_o lord_n strafford_n of_o treason_n with_o innocence_n according_a to_o his_o plinciple_n and_o as_o for_o a_o diffuse_v of_o a_o complexion_n of_o treason_n over_o all_o if_o that_o particular_a have_v be_v sufficient_o witness_v or_o become_v a_o with_o to_o bind_v all_o the_o scatter_a and_o lesser_a branch_n as_o it_o be_v into_o a_o faggot_n of_o treason_n sure_o the_o antecedent_n word_n be_v so_o much_o more_o powerful_a to_o that_o effect_n as_o they_o be_v

whereupon_o many_o a_o tender_a conscience_n have_v pass_v that_o bill_n wherein_o his_o lordship_n be_v more_o scrupulous_a than_o i_o canyetfind_v sufficient_a cause_n for_o for_o i_o crave_v leave_n to_o ask_v his_o lordship_n this_o question_n whether_o if_o some_o miscreant_n have_v be_v tamper_n with_o other_o to_o take_v away_o the_o life_n of_o the_o king_n and_o this_o have_v be_v

and_o his_o lordship_n have_v be_v one_o of_o the_o jury_n whether_o he_o will_v have_v make_v any_o more_o bone_n of_o condemn_v that_o villainy_n then_o if_o they_o have_v both_o agree_v in_o a_o

worthy_a of_o his_o further_a enquiry_n from_o what_o quarter_n that_o gnat_n come_v which_o stick_v so_o fast_o with_o his_o lordship_n in_o a_o case_n full_o parallel_v there_o rest_v as_o little_a

the_o king_n after_o he_o have_v be_v satisfy_v that_o he_o may_v have_v kill_v he_o the_o lord_n strafford_n see_v very_o well_o that_o the_o knot_n of_o the_o with_o be_v in_o this_o part_n of_o
