that_o he_o never_o touch_v any_o of_o that_o money_n which_o be_v so_o full_a a_o denial_n of_o the_o main_a fact_n that_o no_o member_n who_o then_o hear_v he_o can_v say_v afterward_o that_o he_o

the_o same_o opinion_n i_o have_v give_v you_o a_o true_a account_n of_o the_o principal_a matter_n of_o fact_n but_o the_o conjecture_n be_v very_o various_a why_o a_o occasion_n have_v be_v take_v to_o give_v the_o duke_n this_o trouble_n upon_o so_o small_a ground_n as_o these_o seem_v to_o be_v to_o every_o body_n that_o consider_v they_o thorough_o but_o a_o little_a time_n will_v make_v those_o reason_n whatever_o they_o be_v appear_v more_o plain_o for_o in_o truth_n the_o parliament_n be_v in_o some_o measure_n surprise_v with_o the_o sudden_a bring_v of_o that_o business_n before_o they_o which_o although_o concert_v by_o some_o man_n long_o before_o be_v not_o bring_v into_o parliament_n till_o the_o last_o week_n of_o its_o session_n after_o it_o have_v sit_v twenty_o four_o week_n and_o that_o two_o three_o of_o the_o member_n of_o the_o house_n of_o commons_o be_v go_v into_o the_o country_n believe_v all_o the_o business_n of_o that_o session_n to_o have_v be_v over_o for_o it_o be_v the_o 24_o of_o april_n when_o the_o first_o examination_n of_o sir_n bazil_n firebrass_n begin_v before_o the_o committee_n and_o the_o impeachment_n of_o the_o duke_n be_v voted_n the_o 26_o the_o article_n against_o he_o be_v carry_v up_o to_o the_o lord_n the_o 29_o at_o six_o a_o clock_n at_o night_n and_o the_o duke_n give_v in_o his_o answer_n the_o next_o morning_n which_o be_v the_o 30_o the_o one_a of_o may_n be_v sunday_n the_o second_o be_v spend_v whole_o by_o the_o duke_n press_v to_o have_v be_v toy_v before_o the_o session_n have_v be_v end_v and_o the_o 3d_o the_o parliament_n be_v prorogue_v insomuch_o that_o there_o be_v but_o seven_o day_n in_o the_o whole_a betwixt_o the_o first_o time_n of_o examine_v the_o matter_n concern_v the_o duke_n and_o the_o end_n of_o the_o session_n and_o the_o proceed_n upon_o he_o be_v so_o quick_a that_o the_o duke_n have_v no_o notice_n of_o their_o intent_n to_o impeach_v he_o although_o he_o be_v at_o that_o time_n in_o the_o house_n of_o lord_n before_o they_o have_v past_o the_o vote_n of_o impeachment_n which_o be_v too_o late_o to_o be_v revoke_v when_o his_o grace_n go_v down_o to_o the_o house_n of_o commons_o and_o i_o have_v since_o hear_v divers_a of_o that_o house_n say_v that_o if_o they_o have_v hear_v the_o duke_n before_o their_o vote_n past_a they_o will_v not_o have_v proceed_v so_o hasty_o i_o suppose_v you_o have_v hear_v with_o what_o earnestness_n the_o duke_n on_o his_o part_n press_v daily_o to_o have_v be_v bring_v to_o trial_n insomuch_o that_o he_o venture_v the_o king_n displeasure_n in_o hinder_v the_o pass_v the_o money_n bill_n one_o whole_a day_n and_o part_n of_o another_o within_o the_o time_n of_o the_o seven_o day_n aforesaid_a so_o that_o by_o all_o this_o you_o will_v easy_o imagine_v how_o little_a time_n any_o body_n have_v to_o digest_v their_o thought_n so_o thorough_o as_o a_o affair_n of_o that_o consequence_n require_v i_o be_o glad_a to_o hear_v from_o all_o hand_n that_o this_o matter_n about_o the_o duke_n be_v so_o well_o understand_v in_o the_o country_n where_o they_o can_v know_v little_a but_o what_o the_o gazette_n or_o pamphlet_n relate_v which_o take_v a_o far_o great_a liberty_n than_o they_o use_v to_o do_v since_o the_o act_n for_o print_v expire_v but_o in_o this_o place_n where_o thing_n be_v know_v better_o and_o more_o particular_o the_o esteem_n of_o the_o duke_n be_v as_o much_o as_o ever_o among_o all_o but_o such_o as_o love_v monarchy_n no_o better_o than_o they_o do_v his_o grace_n and_o i_o be_o certain_a there_o be_v not_o any_o nobleman_n who_o reputation_n be_v great_a in_o this_o city_n than_o the_o duke_n his_o good_a example_n of_o life_n and_o sober_a conversation_n quality_n not_o frequent_o find_v among_o his_o enemy_n his_o great_a moderation_n in_o religion_n and_o the_o exactness_n of_o his_o payment_n and_o deal_n with_o all_o sort_n of_o man_n which_o be_v no_o less_o rare_a to_o be_v meet_v with_o in_o this_o age_n and_o especial_o among_o many_o who_o talk_v loud_a for_o property_n and_o liberty_n recommend_v he_o to_o their_o esteem_n in_o a_o very_a great_a degree_n beside_o that_o mark_v of_o his_o honour_n will_v never_o be_v forget_v how_o he_o scorn_v to_o be_v tempt_v with_o money_n when_o a_o sum_n twenty_o time_n great_a than_o what_o be_v now_o pretend_v to_o be_v give_v he_o be_v offer_v he_o from_o france_n and_o be_v refuse_v by_o he_o because_o it_o be_v to_o do_v what_o he_o think_v will_v be_v prejudicial_a to_o his_o country_n which_o be_v such_o a_o proof_n of_o his_o be_v out_o of_o the_o reach_n of_o money_n to_o make_v he_o do_v any_o dishonourable_a or_o illegal_a act_n as_o no_o man_n but_o himself_o have_v have_v the_o opportunity_n to_o give_v the_o world_n and_o it_o ought_v to_o take_v away_o the_o give_a credit_n to_o any_o charge_n of_o that_o kind_n against_o he_o it_o be_v no_o new_a thing_n nor_o at_o all_o out_o of_o practice_n in_o our_o day_n to_o see_v good_a man_n misrepresent_v or_o bad_a one_o cry_v up_o with_o the_o character_n of_o worthy_n but_o to_o see_v such_o libeler_n go_v unpunished_a as_o have_v dare_v to_o put_v in_o print_n the_o most_o scandalous_a and_o apparent_a lie_n against_o the_o great_a man_n in_o the_o realm_n as_o be_v to_o be_v see_v against_o other_o as_o well_o as_o this_o duke_n be_v what_o i_o confess_v seem_v strange_a to_o be_v suffer_v in_o any_o well-governed_a state_n it_o be_v well_o know_v that_o heretofore_o the_o same_o sort_n of_o man_n endeavour_v to_o have_v blast_v this_o duke_n with_o the_o character_n of_o a_o betrayer_n of_o his_o country_n even_o about_o the_o time_n when_o he_o can_v not_o be_v wrought_v upon_o to_o do_v it_o by_o the_o strong_a temptation_n which_o can_v be_v offer_v he_o nay_o their_o malice_n then_o reach_v so_o far_o as_o to_o blacken_v he_o with_o a_o pretence_n of_o his_o be_v guilty_a of_o the_o murder_n of_o sir_n edmondbury_n godfrey_n but_o as_o god_n many_o time_n harden_v such_o man_n heart_n and_o leave_v they_o to_o frame_n lie_v according_a to_o their_o own_o invention_n so_o they_o then_o spare_v not_o king_n charles_n himself_o but_o in_o their_o libel_n make_v he_o to_o be_v one_o of_o the_o accomplice_n with_o this_o duke_n in_o that_o villainous_a murder_n so_o far_o will_v man_n proceed_v in_o their_o wickedness_n when_o they_o find_v it_o go_v unregarded_a to_o conclude_v it_o may_v be_v remark_v that_o whilst_o some_o man_n be_v accuse_v who_o have_v do_v the_o great_a service_n to_o their_o country_n and_o to_o the_o interest_n of_o the_o protestant_a religion_n other_o who_o have_v abandon_v and_o formal_o abjure_v the_o protestant_a religion_n to_o take_v up_o the_o romish_a and_o who_o have_v serve_v the_o interest_n of_o france_n and_o popery_n without_o disguise_n and_o in_o conjunction_n with_o pope_n nuncio_n and_o jesuit_n privy_a councillor_n go_v not_o only_o unpunished_a but_o have_v be_v countenance_v as_o if_o they_o be_v the_o chief_a supporter_n of_o our_o religion_n and_o law_n and_o the_o other_o the_o betrayer_n of_o they_o such_o paradox_n do_v we_o meet_v with_o in_o state_n affair_n as_o well_o as_o in_o school_n controversy_n but_o as_o god_n have_v hitherto_o protect_v this_o duke_n against_o his_o enemy_n in_o so_o many_o transcendent_a instance_n of_o their_o malice_n so_o i_o doubt_v not_o but_o he_o will_v continue_v both_o to_o protect_v his_o person_n and_o reward_v his_o merit_n which_o i_o be_o sure_a every_o man_n ought_v to_o pray_v for_o that_o wish_v well_o to_o this_o church_n and_o nation_n as_o do_v daily_a sir_n your_o most_o faithful_a and_o humble_a servant_n finis_fw-la
