discovery_n of_o this_o hellish_a treason_n what_o so_o many_o discourse_n as_o be_v confess_v of_o the_o feazibleness_n of_o seize_v the_o king_n guard_n p._n 3._o my_o lord_n exclaim_v against_o it_o and_o ask_v if_o the_o thing_n succeed_v what_o must_v be_v do_v next_o etc._n etc._n the_o duke_n of_o monmouth_n tell_v he_o my_o lord_n shaftsbury_n and_o some_o hot_a man_n will_v undo_v we_o all_o and_o ask_v he_o at_o another_o time_n do_v you_o ever_o hear_v such_o a_o horrid_a thing_n and_o yet_o to_o say_v he_o die_v innocent_a or_o know_v of_o no_o plot_n against_o the_o king_n life_n or_o government_n i_o protest_v i_o stand_v amaze_v at_o the_o contradiction_n for_o the_o evasion_n be_v too_o silly_a and_o thin_a to_o think_v that_o the_o horrid_a thing_n be_v only_o kill_v the_o guard_n or_o that_o which_o will_v undo_v we_o all_o be_v some_o disorderly_a thing_n or_o other_o which_o the_o hot_a man_n will_v do_v if_o great_a care_n be_v not_o take_v alas_o that_o any_o man_n shall_v be_v so_o weak_a himself_o as_o to_o think_v to_o impose_v upon_o other_o such_o foolish_a inconsistency_n no_o certain_o the_o horrid_a thing_n such_o as_o be_v never_o hear_v of_o that_o will_v undo_v we_o all_o must_v be_v crime_n of_o another_o nature_n than_o this_o palliate_a speech_n insinuate_v and_o can_v be_v of_o no_o other_o import_n than_o treason_n of_o the_o black_a complexion_n and_o after_o the_o knowledge_n of_o such_o thing_n to_o say_v a_o man_n know_v no_o plot_n and_o that_o he_o die_v innocent_a can_v be_v say_v unless_o plot_v and_o know_v of_o it_o be_v no_o treason_n and_o that_o the_o same_o person_n may_v be_v the_o great_a criminal_a and_o the_o most_o innocent_a at_o the_o same_o time_n i_o will_v fain_o be_v answer_v one_o

be_v stupid_a that_o do_v not_o see_v it_o carry_v treason_n in_o the_o face_n of_o it_o either_o in_o seize_v or_o assassinate_v the_o king_n person_n or_o both_o successive_o but_o still_o the_o know_n of_o this_o must_v be_v misprision_n of_o treason_n it_o be_v well_o my_o lord_n council_n know_v better_a thing_n when_o they_o advise_v he_o not_o to_o confess_v matter_n of_o fact_n plain_o

they_o will_v not_o have_v have_v occasion_n to_o withdraw_v from_o the_o bar_n for_o their_o verdict_n the_o law_n say_v there_o be_v no_o accessary_n but_o all_o be_v principal_n in_o treason_n he_o
