stage_n the_o first_o time_n that_o ever_o my_o name_n be_v hear_v of_o or_o i_o know_v to_o be_v a_o offender_n against_o the_o state_n and_o whatsoever_o shall_v now_o be_v find_v in_o i_o amiss_o i_o desire_v there_o may_v be_v a_o favourable_a construction_n make_v of_o it_o and_o not_o to_o be_v strain_v beyond_o what_o my_o intention_n be_v who_o have_v always_o abhor_v from_o my_o very_a soul_n all_o design_n that_o have_v tend_v to_o blood_n i_o have_v always_o stand_v firm_a to_o the_o cause_n of_o liberty_n and_o religion_n and_o all_o the_o interest_n thereof_o these_o be_v the_o principle_n i_o first_o take_v up_o these_o be_v the_o principle_n i_o have_v always_o hold_v from_o which_o principle_n i_o never_o yet_o depart_v i_o have_v always_o have_v a_o bleed_a heart_n when_o the_o church_n have_v be_v in_o a_o suffer_a condition_n i_o have_v never_o be_v of_o a_o bitter_a spirit_n but_o have_v always_o carry_v a_o most_o tender_a and_o christian_a respect_n towards_o those_o that_o be_v of_o a_o unblameable_a life_n and_o conversation_n and_o where_o i_o think_v there_o be_v truth_n of_o grace_n however_o contrary_a to_o i_o in_o judgement_n yet_o i_o have_v love_v they_o and_o embrace_v they_o as_o christian_n i_o have_v always_o live_v peaceable_o never_o no_o disturber_n of_o the_o church_n or_o state_n either_o by_o writing_n or_o print_v book_n or_o any_o thing_n else_o may_v it_o please_v your_o lordship_n it_o be_v my_o desire_n you_o shall_v do_v as_o god_n do_v when_o the_o cry_n of_o sodom_n come_v up_o before_o he_o i_o will_v go_v down_o say_v he_o and_o see_v whether_o they_o have_v do_v altogether_o according_a to_o the_o cry_n which_o be_v come_v up_o to_o i_o if_o not_o i_o will_v know_v the_o lord_n that_o know_v all_o thing_n know_v before_o what_o sodom_n have_v do_v but_o after_o the_o manner_n of_o man_n he_o come_v down_o to_o teach_v all_o court_n of_o what_o they_o shall_v do_v before_o they_o proceed_v to_o judgement_n my_o lord_n here_o have_v be_v a_o great_a charge_n against_o i_o a_o great_a cry_n come_v up_o unto_o your_o ear_n i_o desire_v you_o to_o to_o do_v god_n do_v that_o be_v to_o know_v whether_o it_o be_v according_a to_o the_o cry_n that_o you_o will_v serious_o weigh_v all_o that_o the_o witness_n have_v say_v gather_v all_o the_o circumstance_n together_o and_o see_v the_o utmost_a that_o it_o do_v amount_v unto_o and_o then_o i_o be_o sure_a you_o will_v see_v the_o evidence_n to_o come_v so_o infinite_a short_a of_o what_o the_o charge_n and_o cry_n have_v be_v against_o i_o that_o you_o will_v find_v argument_n to_o incline_v to_o mercy_n and_o if_o i_o may_v not_o be_v quit_v yet_o at_o least_o you_o will_v let_v i_o have_v those_o help_n and_o advantage_n that_o the_o law_n afford_v i_o and_o god_n have_v command_v you_o to_o give_v i_o that_o you_o will_v not_o keep_v any_o thing_n from_o i_o that_o i_o according_a to_o justice_n have_v demand_v and_o for_o the_o want_n of_o which_o see_v i_o destroy_v before_o your_o face_n therefore_o i_o do_v once_o more_o with_o all_o earnestness_n desire_v you_o will_v not_o deny_v i_o a_o copy_n of_o my_o charge_n also_o the_o deposition_n of_o the_o witness_n and_o assign_v i_o council_n to_o come_v to_o my_o chamber_n and_o plead_v for_o i_o at_o the_o bar_n without_o which_o you_o take_v from_o i_o all_o these_o help_n that_o shall_v enable_v i_o to_o make_v my_o defence_n without_o which_o it_o be_v impossible_a for_o i_o to_o go_v any_o further_o and_o must_v declare_v that_o i_o want_v all_o the_o material_a thing_n that_o shall_v help_v i_o to_o save_v my_o life_n when_o i_o see_v before_o my_o eye_n all_o possible_a advantage_n to_o undo_v i_o mylord_n i_o be_o able_a to_o say_v no_o more_o if_o thus_o my_o just_a request_n shall_v be_v deny_v i_o have_v go_v as_o far_o as_o i_o can_v without_o they_o both_o to_o clear_v my_o innocency_n and_o vindicate_v myself_o from_o that_o which_o be_v lay_v to_o my_o charge_n and_o be_o most_o confident_a if_o you_o will_v let_v i_o have_v what_o you_o can_v just_o deny_v i_o a_o copy_n of_o my_o charge_n and_o the_o deposition_n of_o the_o witness_n i_o shall_v stand_v as_o clear_v in_o the_o eye_n of_o the_o law_n in_o the_o eye_n of_o your_o lordship_n and_o all_o thi●_z court_n as_o i_o be_o clear_a in_o the_o eye_n of_o god_n and_o my_o own_o conscience_n from_o what_o be_v unjust_o charge_v upon_o i_o and_o thus_o much_o i_o have_v do_v and_o be_o able_a to_o do_v no_o more_o therefore_o if_o you_o do_v deny_v i_o i_o shall_v be_v abundant_o satisfy_v howsoever_o it_o shall_v please_v god_n to_o suffer_v you_o to_o deal_v with_o i_o concerning_o the_o witness_n i_o have_v little_o further_o to_o say_v but_o desire_v that_o the_o lord_n will_v forgive_v they_o as_o i_o do_v free_o will_v not_o change_v condition_n with_o they_o though_o i_o be_v sure_a to_o die_v in_o fire_n flame_v or_o in_o the_o mouth_n of_o lion_n even_o in_o the_o worst_a condition_n that_o can_v be_v imagine_v i_o both_o pity_n and_o desire_v to_o mourn_v for_o they_o who_o have_v so_o desperate_o wound_v their_o own_o soul_n and_o conscience_n to_o destroy_v my_o life_n and_o the_o lord_n grant_v that_o not_o one_o drop_n of_o my_o blood_n which_o they_o have_v endeavour_v to_o shed_v may_v not_o stand_v betwixt_o they_o and_o mercy_n when_o they_o be_v upon_o their_o die_a bed_n cry_v for_o it_o and_o this_o be_v the_o worst_a hurt_n i_o wish_v they_o for_o all_o the_o wrong_n they_o have_v do_v to_o i_o now_o the_o lord_n of_o heaven_n direct_v your_o lordship_n and_o this_o honourable_a court_n that_o you_o may_v not_o suffer_v the_o witness_n testimony_n to_o be_v strain_v for_o i_o to_o lose_v my_o life_n upon_o circumstance_n or_o what_o be_v suppose_v to_o be_v or_o in_o conscience_n think_v but_o according_a to_o clear_a proof_n and_o evidence_n do_v that_o which_o may_v give_v you_o comfort_n upon_o a_o die_a bed_n and_o no_o more_o than_o you_o dare_v look_v god_n in_o the_o face_n withal_o and_o answer_v to_o i_o his_o poor_a servant_n who_o be_o innocent_a at_o the_o bar_n of_o the_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n where_o i_o shall_v have_v free_a liberty_n to_o speak_v and_o you_o must_v and_o shall_v hear_v i_o the_o lord_n of_o heaven_n direct_v you_o that_o you_o do_v no_o more_o than_o what_o the_o law_n will_v allow_v and_o that_o what_o you_o do_v may_v be_v according_a to_o the_o mind_n of_o god_n and_o most_o for_o his_o glory_n and_o the_o good_a of_o i_o a_o helpless_a prisoner_n at_o the_o bar_n and_o so_o let_v it_o go_v which_o way_n it_o will_v i_o shall_v submit_v with_o abundance_n of_o content_n and_o satisfaction_n and_o with_o a_o quiet_a spirit_n say_v the_o will_n of_o the_o lord_n be_v do_v thus_o have_v end_v his_o speech_n the_o court_n adjourn_v until_o friday_n next_o and_o so_o m._n gibbons_n be_v carry_v back_o by_o his_o
