and_o the_o great_a actor_n in_o this_o plot_n be_v priest_n and_o jesuit_n that_o be_v come_v from_o st._n omers_n and_o other_o place_n beyond_o the_o sea_n near_a home_n than_o spain_n three_o that_o plot_n be_v chief_o guide_v and_o manage_v by_o henry_n garnett_n superior_a and_o provincial_a of_o the_o jesuit_n then_o in_o england_n and_o the_o great_a actor_n in_o this_o design_n be_v

be_v to_o act_n in_o this_o conspiracy_n be_v to_o take_v away_o the_o life_n of_o our_o sovereign_a lord_n the_o king_n on_o who_o preservation_n the_o safety_n and_o welfare_n of_o three_o nation_n and_o million_o of_o man_n do_v depend_v now_o the_o fact_n for_o which_o the_o five_o prisoner_n stand_v indict_v i_o shall_v open_v thus_o first_o they_o be_v here_o indict_v for_o conspire_v the_o
