that_o oath_n that_o the_o king_n have_v take_v to_o his_o subject_n he_o suffer_v ah_o what_o a_o unfortunate_a man_n than_o be_v the_o prisoner_n at_o the_o batre_n that_o have_v in_o all_o his_o

cherish_v all_o disorder_n now_o my_o lord_n i_o come_v to_o show_v the_o vanity_n of_o his_o excuse_n that_o he_o have_v make_v for_o himself_o the_o first_o be_v the_o liberty_n of_o give_v counsel_n be_v a_o counsellor_n true_a my_o lord_n he_o have_v this_o liberty_n but_o it_o be_v bound_v within_o its_o list_n and_o it_o must_v be_v such_o counsel_n as_o must_v stand_v with_o the_o

your_o lordship_n will_v be_v careful_a to_o secure_v your_o posterity_n and_o not_o to_o admit_v of_o this_o as_o treason_n my_o lord_n i_o know_v your_o lordship_n will_v be_v careful_a to_o secure_v yourselves_o but_o by_o your_o virtue_n not_o by_o your_o vice_n the_o three_o excuse_n be_v the_o goodness_n of_o his_o intention_n true_o my_o lord_n good_a and_o evil_a lie_n close_o together_o not_o easy_o to_o be_v discern_v if_o they_o be_v natural_a corruption_n but_o for_o murder_n adultery_n rapine_n and_o treason_n these_o be_v so_o monstrous_a that_o they_o may_v easy_o

that_o he_o advise_v the_o king_n to_o do_v it_o with_o moderation_n and_o reparation_n my_o lord_n this_o be_v a_o contradiction_n for_o there_o can_v be_v no_o reparation_n for_o this_o the_o seven_o excuse_n be_v that_o no_o horrid_a fact_n do_v follow_v his_o counsel_n true_o my_o lord_n we_o thank_v god_n his_o sacred_a majesty_n and_o his_o wise_a counsel_n for_o that_o or_o else_o god_n know_v what_o fearful_a thing_n will_v have_v be_v fall_v we_o nor_o be_v we_o free_a from_o it_o as_o yet_o to_o conclude_v now_o my_o lord_n give_v i_o leave_v to_o entreat_v you_o to_o consider_v the_o treason_n ordinary_o practise_v when_o the_o act_n be_v do_v they_o cease_v as_o in_o kill_v that_o noble_a king_n of_o france_n and_o the_o several_a plot_n against_o queen_n

and_o now_o my_o lord_n these_o law_n that_o he_o will_v have_v overthrow_v must_v now_o be_v his_o judge_n and_o he_o be_v to_o be_v judge_v by_o law_n and_o that_o law_n will_v have_v mark_n enough_o of_o it_o to_o describe_v it_o for_o it_o be_v a_o law_n against_o such_o as_o break_v the_o fundamental_a law_n of_o the_o kingdom_n and_o my_o lord_n give_v i_o leave_v to_o inform_v you_o that_o under_o favour_n this_o be_v not_o to_o make_v a_o new_a way_n for_o blood_n nor_o be_v the_o crime_n of_o treason_n in_o my_o lord_n of_o strafford_n the_o less_o because_o none_o will_v
