never_o any_o debate_n before_o i_o either_o in_o public_a council_n or_o private_a committee_n of_o the_o disloyalty_n of_o my_o english_a subject_n nor_o ever_o have_v i_o any_o suspicion_n of_o they_o three_o that_o i_o be_v never_o counsel_v by_o any_o to_o alter_v the_o least_o of_o any_o of_o the_o law_n of_o england_n much_o less_o to_o alter_v all_o the_o law_n nay_o i_o tell_v you_o this_o i_o think_v no_o body_n dare_v ever_o be_v so_o impudent_a as_o to_o move_v i_o to_o it_o for_o if_o they_o have_v i_o shall_v have_v make_v they_o such_o a_o example_n and_o put_v such_o a_o mark_n upon_o they_o that_o all_o posterity_n shall_v know_v my_o intention_n by_o it_o they_o be_v ever_o to_o govern_v by_o the_o law_n and_o no_o otherwise_o i_o desire_v right_o to_o be_v understand_v for_o though_o i_o tell_v you_o in_o my_o conscience_n i_o can_v condemn_v he_o of_o high_a treason_n yet_o can_v i_o clear_v he_o of_o misdemeanour_n therefore_o i_o hope_v you_o may_v find_v out_o a_o way_n to_o satisfy_v justice_n and_o your_o own_o fear_n and_o not_o oppress_v my_o conscience_n my_o lord_n i_o hope_v you_o know_v what_o a_o tender_a conscience_n be_v and_o i_o must_v declare_v unto_o you_o that_o to_o satisfy_v my_o people_n i_o will_v do_v great_a matter_n but_o in_o this_o of_o conscience_n neither_o fear_n nor_o any_o other_o respect_n whatsoever_o

therefore_o i_o can_v suspect_v you_o will_v go_v about_o it_o nay_o i_o must_v confess_v for_o misdemeanour_n i_o be_o so_o clear_a in_o they_o that_o though_o i_o will_v not_o chalk_v out_o the_o

out_o a_o way_n to_o satisfy_v justice_n and_o their_o own_o fear_n and_o not_o to_o oppress_v the_o king_n conscience_n which_o neither_o fear_n nor_o any_o other_o respect_n whatsoever_o shall_v
