of_o monmouth_n and_o he_o do_v go_v away_o with_o the_o duke_n of_o monmouth_n as_o he_o believe_v he_o say_v there_o be_v some_o discourse_n of_o a_o rise_n or_o insurrection_n that_o be_v to_o be_v

end_n but_o to_o seize_v and_o destroy_v the_o king_n and_o it_o be_v a_o great_a evidence_n if_o my_o lord_n russel_n do_v design_n to_o seize_v the_o king_n guard_n and_o make_v a_o insurrection_n in_o the_o kingdom_n of_o a_o design_n for_o to_o surprise_v the_o king_n person_n it_o must_v be_v lest_o to_o you_o upon_o the_o whole_a matter_n you_o have_v not_o evidence_n in_o this_o case_n as_o there_o be_v in_o the_o other_o matter_n that_o be_v try_v in_o the_o morning_n or_o yesterday_o against_o the_o conspirator_n to_o kill_v the_o king_n at_o the_o rye_n there_o be_v a_o direct_a

it_o be_v pretty_a odd_o express_v for_o when_o a_o man_n be_v accuse_v of_o felony_n and_o other_o high_a treason_n it_o be_v of_o the_o death_n of_o a_o man_n unless_o he_o have_v land_n or_o

ascertain_v the_o value_n of_o juror_n yet_o they_o have_v still_o a_o eye_n that_o the_o city_n of_o london_n shall_v continue_v in_o its_o usage_n i_o think_v it_o will_v be_v necessary_a to_o put_v you_o in_o mind_n of_o the_o case_n of_o the_o city_n of_o worcester_n it_o will_v be_v very_o hard_a say_v they_o because_o a_o attaint_n do_v not_o lie_v in_o criminal_a matter_n if_o you_o intend_v by_o that_o to_o have_v people_n of_o ability_n it_o be_v well_o know_v that_o the_o able_a people_n in_o the_o city_n of_o london_n have_v scarce_o any_o freehold_n in_o it_o for_o that_o most_o of_o
