passe upon me The Jury found me guilty if I should go about to make a defence now it would signifie no more then as if my friends should petition for my pardon after I am excuted could have offered you articles here but I thought them inconsisten● with this Court. When I look upon my offence as to the Protectour I conclude myself a dead man but when I reflect upon the favour he hath shewed to others of my condition and the hopes I have of your intercession me thinks I feel my spirits renewed again My Lords death is a debt due from Nature has now the keeping the bond and has put it in suit by his Attorny if he please to forbear the serving me with an execution and let me keep it a little longer I will pay him the interest of thanks for it as as long as I live and engage my posterity and a numerous allyance to be bound for me So the Lord direct you all for the best If I have found favour I shall thank you if not I shall forgive you This being done Serjeant Glyn after a most bitter and nonsensicall speech gave sentence against us viz to be drawn hanged and quartred A prety exchange for unworthy Crooks Articles for life liberty and estate which I can prove and will die upon My triall held at least five hours This is as much as at present I can remember of it excuse the errours One of the Jury being asked by a Gent. why he found me guilty answered He was resolved to hang me before he did see me I observe treason in this age to be an individuum vagum like the wind in the Gospel which bloweth where it listeth for that shall be treason in me to day which shall be none in another to morrow as it pleaseth Mr Attorny The Judges are sworn to do justice according to the Laws of the Land and therefore have miserably perjured themselves in condemning me contrary to Law And not so contented must cause the Jury so wise they were through their false and unjust directions to destroy their own rights and properties and set up a new Arbitrary and Tyrannicall government The Judges would not give me their advice in point of Law as was their duty because they said they were parties yet could sit still on the Bench in their Robes to countenance and approve of my Sentence No man can be a Judge where he is a Party in the same cause therefore my tryall was contrary to Law The Judges being parties ought not to sit upon the bench but stand by therefore my triall was illegall the rest being no Judges but the Protectours immediate servants so could not be my Judges in case of High Treason for none but the sworn Judges of the Land are capable of it by Law One thing of Colonel Dove the reverend Sheriff of Wilts who that the Jury might be sufficiently incensed complaining of the many incivilities he pretended were offered him by our party being upon his Oath said that one of our men did run him through the side with a Carbine Surely it was a very small one for the wound was not discernable A great deal of paines every man in his place took for the carrying on their Masters work Be mercifull unto me O Lord be mercifull unto me under the shadow of they wings will I hide my selfe till this Tyranny be overpast Glory be to God on High in earth peace good will towards men and so have mercy on me O Lord.
