a_o brief_a account_n of_o the_o commitment_n of_o the_o earl_n of_o sh._n and_o the_o crime_n lay_v to_o his_o charge_n it_o have_v be_v much_o admire_v at_o by_o the_o most_o sober_a and_o consider_a part_n of_o the_o nation_n that_o those_o who_o come_v in_o these_o three_o year_n past_a to_o discover_v a_o curse_a design_n against_o his_o sacred_a majesty_n life_n and_o government_n shall_v be_v most_o intimate_a with_o person_n discontent_v and_o notorious_o dissassect_v with_o he_o majesty_n government_n both_o in_o church_n and_o state_n nay_o shall_v be_v support_v and_o maintain_v if_o not_o instruct_v and_o catechise_v by_o they_o in_o all_o their_o measure_n and_o proceed_n and_o indeed_o it_o be_v very_o strange_a that_o no_o informer_n yet_o appear_v to_o discover_v the_o plot_n either_o in_o england_n or_o ireland_n but_o first_o he_o make_v his_o address_n to_o the_o e._n of_o s_n before_o he_o apply_v himself_o to_o ●ing_v or_o council_n for_o it_o be_v plain_a neither_o his_o lordship_n loyalty_n which_o always_o seem_v retrograde_a but_o when_o he_o govern_v all_o nor_o his_o religion_n which_o in_o all_o the_o revolution_n of_o his_o time_n he_o measure_v still_o by_o his_o interest_n can_v invite_v these_o informer_n to_o he_o more_o than_o to_o other_o peer_n of_o the_o realm_n but_o now_o people_n begin_v to_o find_v out_o the_o mystery_n and_o be_v pretty_a well_o satisfy_v that_o his_o lordship_n do_v not_o promote_v the_o discovery_n of_o the_o popish_a plot_n out_o of_o any_o extraordinary_a zeal_n he_o have_v for_o the_o good_a either_o of_o the_o king_n or_o kingdom_n but_o be_v resolve_v to_o make_v a_o good_a hand_n of_o this_o hellish_a conspiracy_n to_o advance_v another_o of_o his_o own_o but_o our_o little_a weathercock_n of_o state_n make_v a_o pit_n and_o dig_v it_o and_o be_v fall_v into_o the_o ditch_n which_o he_o make_v those_o very_a witness_n who_o he_o so_o much_o extol_v for_o the_o saviour_n of_o both_o kingdom_n and_o endeavour_v to_o persuade_v to_o swear_v against_o her_o sacred_a majesty_n and_o his_o royal_a highness_n have_v of_o late_o positive_o swear_v treason_n or_o rather_o a_o heap_n of_o treason_n against_o himself_o the_o sum_n whereof_o be_v as_o follow_v i._o that_o he_o have_v imagine_v to_o compass_v and_o procure_v the_o death_n of_o the_o king_n and_o the_o subversion_n of_o the_o government_n and_o of_o the_o know_a law_n of_o the_o land_n by_o reduce_v this_o ancient_a monarchy_n into_o a_o republic_n ii_o that_o he_o use_v great_a endeavour_n to_o possess_v the_o people_n that_o his_o majesty_n be_v a_o papist_n and_o design_n to_o introduce_v popery_n and_o arbitrary_a power_n and_o to_o that_o end_n have_v promote_v several_a seditious_a and_o treasonable_a libel_n against_o his_o majesty_n person_n and_o government_n purposely_o to_o bring_v his_o majesty_n into_o a_o odium_fw-la and_o contempt_n with_o his_o love_a subject_n iii_o that_o he_o endeavour_v to_o levy_v war_n against_o the_o king_n both_o in_o england_n &_o ireland_n and_o bring_v bloodshed_n and_o confusion_n upon_o his_o majesty_n good_a people_n under_o pretence_n of_o prosecute_a the_o popish_a plot_n and_o preserve_v the_o protestant_a religion_n the_o liberty_n and_o property_n of_o the_o subject_a as_o he_o and_o his_o confederate_n have_v do_v in_o the_o late_a rebellion_n iv_o that_o he_o endeavour_v to_o render_v the_o church_n of_o england_n as_o ridiculous_a as_o popery_n and_o defame_a all_o his_o majesty_n officer_n both_o by_o land_n and_o sea_n and_o all_o other_o who_o out_o of_o a_o due_a sense_n of_o loyalty_n adhere_v to_o the_o crown_n still_v they_o tory_n tantivy_n masquerader_n etc._n etc._n purposely_o to_o frighten_v they_o from_o their_o duty_n and_o wean_v they_o from_o their_o sovereign_n to_o adhere_v to_o he_o and_o his_o faction_n v._o that_o he_o countenance_v harbour_v and_o hire_v person_n to_o swear_v against_o the_o queen_n and_o his_o royal_a highness_n vi_o that_o he_o procure_v several_a sum_n of_o money_n to_o be_v raise_v and_o collect_v to_o carry_v on_o these_o most_o abominable_a design_n this_o charge_n be_v make_v out_o against_o his_o lordship_n by_o 15._o person_n of_o as_o good_a credit_n and_o reputation_n as_o any_o of_o those_o his_o lordship_n so_o much_o extol_v and_o admire_v while_o they_o swear_v as_o he_o will_v have_v they_o four_o be_v irish_a the_o rest_n english_a and_o all_o know_a protestant_n of_o the_o church_n of_o england_n and_o several_a of_o they_o be_v late_o esteem_v by_o his_o lordship_n very_o fit_a person_n to_o swear_v against_o the_o queen_n and_o his_o royal_a highness_n yet_o perhaps_o they_o must_v not_o be_v think_v of_o sufficient_a credit_n now_o against_o such_o a_o true_a protestant_n who_o be_v as_o zealous_a to_o suppress_v popery_n in_o 79._o as_o he_o be_v to_o promote_v it_o in_o 72._o and_o polypus-like_a in_o all_o the_o change_n and_o revolution_n of_o the_o government_n always_o appear_v of_o the_o same_o religion_n with_o the_o faction_n or_o party_n he_o espouse_v it_o be_v well_o know_v that_o whosoever_o swear_v for_o the_o presbyterian_o though_o hire_v for_o that_o purpose_n must_v be_v cry_v up_o for_o a_o saint_n and_o a_o saviour_n of_o the_o nation_n but_o if_o ever_o he_o be_v touch_v with_o any_o remorse_n of_o conscience_n and_o thereupon_o discover_v the_o villainous_a practice_n of_o that_o party_n he_o be_v immediate_o metamorphose_v into_o the_o great_a of_o villain_n and_o worst_a of_o perjurer_n and_o it_o be_v very_o observable_a that_o among_o the_o brethren_n there_o be_v a_o common_a purse_n make_v and_o a_o swear_v office_n erect_v where_o all_o person_n that_o have_v conscience_n large_a enough_o to_o swallow_v any_o oath_n and_o swea●_n what_o their_o benefactor_n please_v be_v frank_o entertain_v and_o liberal_o reward_v but_o above_o all_o it_o be_v worth_a the_o inquire_n after_o what_o motive_n can_v induce_v the_o godly_a congregation_n to_o be_v so_o free_a of_o their_o purse_n to_o the_o irish_a evidence_n who_o be_v know_v papist_n priest_n and_o

reason_n then_o have_v the_o fanatic_n of_o england_n to_o be_v so_o liberal_a to_o the_o discoverer_n of_o that_o plot_n when_o the_o very_a party_n concern_v the_o protestant_n of_o ireland_n never_o give_v they_o a_o farthing_n be_v it_o possible_a the_o english_a fanatic_n can_v be_v more_o concern_v for_o the_o safety_n of_o the_o irish_a protestant_n than_o they_o themselves_o or_o that_o the_o pootestants_n of_o that_o kingdom_n can_v be_v so_o stupid_a as_o not_o to_o consider_v these_o discovere●●_n that_o save_v their_o throat_n from_o a_o general_n massacre_n if_o they_o
