and_o begin_v to_o sum_n up_o bedlow_n evidence_n so_o the_o lord_n chief_a justice_n seem_v not_o please_v and_o answer_v what_o be_v all_o this_o call_v mr._n bedlow_n again_o to_o who_o he_o make_v a_o godly_a speech_n about_o innocent_a blood_n and_o bid_v he_o give_v his_o evidence_n anew_o who_o give_v what_o be_v abovesaid_a sir_n george_n reply_v what_o if_o the_o queen_n have_v give_v i_o
