every_o man_n that_o hear_v i_o that_o i_o shall_v have_v time_n to_o clear_v a_o truth_n no_o man_n can_v deny_v it_o and_o therefore_o i_o humble_o pray_v i_o may_v not_o be_v sudden_o take_v protest_v serious_o i_o have_v say_v nothing_o but_o what_o i_o know_v or_o very_o believe_v to_o be_v true_a we_o pray_v your_o lordship_n resolution_n in_o this_o point_n before_o we_o proceed_v manager_n any_o further_a their_o lordship_n thereupon_o adjourn_v to_o the_o upper-house_n and_o about_o half_a a_o hour_n after_o return_v i_o be_o command_v to_o impart_v their_o lordship_n resolution_n that_o since_o the_o steward_n commons_o do_v not_o press_v these_o thing_n as_o matter_n of_o crime_n but_o rather_o upon_o the_o matter_n of_o truth_n they_o conceive_v my_o lord_n of_o strafford_n need_v not_o further_a time_n for_o these_o particular_n and_o that_o if_o his_o lordship_n will_v make_v any_o answer_n to_o these_o particular_n he_o be_v to_o do_v it_o now_o i_o shall_v never_o do_v other_o than_o ready_o obey_v whatsoever_o your_o lordship_n speech_n shall_v please_v to_o command_v i_o my_o heart_n pay_v you_o obedience_n and_o so_o in_o truth_n shall_v every_o thing_n that_o proceed_v from_o i_o the_o question_n i_o observe_v be_v matter_n of_o truth_n or_o not_o truth_n in_o the_o preamble_n as_o they_o call_v it_o of_o this_o my_o answer_n and_o to_o that_o with_o all_o the_o humility_n and_o modesty_n in_o the_o world_n i_o will_v apply_v myself_o as_o not_o conceive_v it_o any_o way_n become_v i_o to_o speak_v any_o thing_n of_o sharpness_n in_o any_o kind_n but_o with_o all_o humility_n and_o reverence_n to_o bear_v all_o these_o affliction_n with_o acknowledgement_n unto_o almighty_a god_n and_o to_o lay_v they_o so_o to_o my_o heart_n that_o they_o may_v provide_v for_o i_o in_o another_o world_n where_o we_o be_v to_o expect_v the_o consummation_n of_o all_o blessedness_n and_o happiness_n and_o therefore_o to_o lay_v aside_o all_o these_o aggravation_n by_o word_n wherewith_o i_o have_v be_v set_v forth_o to_o your_o lordship_n only_o with_o this_o that_o i_o trust_v i_o shall_v make_v myself_o appear_v a_o person_n otherwise_o in_o my_o disposition_n and_o action_n than_o i_o have_v be_v render_v and_o short_o and_o brief_o i_o shall_v fall_v upon_o the_o very_a point_n as_o near_o as_o i_o can_v that_o be_v mention_v by_o that_o noble_a gentleman_n and_o if_o i_o shall_v forget_v any_o i_o desire_v to_o be_v remember_v of_o they_o that_o i_o may_v give_v the_o best_a answer_n i_o can_v on_o a_o sudden_a with_o this_o protestation_n that_o if_o i_o have_v have_v time_n i_o shall_v have_v give_v a_o far_o clear_a answer_n than_o on_o the_o sudden_a i_o shall_v be_v able_a to_o do_v i_o will_v take_v they_o as_o they_o lie_v in_o order_n and_o the_o first_o thing_n in_o this_o answer_n be_v that_o in_o ireland_n by_o my_o mean_n many_o good_a law_n be_v make_v for_o increase_v of_o the_o king_n revenue_n and_o for_o good_a of_o the_o church_n and_o commonwealth_n and_o this_o i_o humble_o conceive_v be_v not_o deny_v direct_o only_o it_o be_v infer_v that_o law_n be_v of_o no_o use_n where_o will_n be_v put_v above_o law_n that_o these_o law_n be_v make_v the_o act_n of_o parliament_n that_o be_v extant_a and_o visible_a thing_n do_v make_v appear_v for_o though_o i_o may_v express_v it_o dark_o by_o reason_n i_o understand_v not_o matter_n of_o law_n the_o truth_n of_o it_o be_v before_o such_o time_n as_o i_o come_v there_o the_o statute_n of_o will_n and_o uses_n and_o fraudulent_a conveyance_n be_v not_o of_o force_n in_o ireland_n by_o which_o there_o be_v a_o very_a great_a mischief_n that_o fall_v many_o way_n both_o on_o the_o king_n and_o special_o on_o the_o english_a planter_n for_o by_o want_n of_o these_o statute_n no_o man_n know_v when_o he_o have_v a_o good_a title_n and_o old_a entayle_n will_v be_v set_v on_o foot_n and_o by_o that_o mean_v the_o late_a purchaser_n avoid_v by_o which_o mean_v there_o be_v a_o great_a loss_n and_o prejudice_n to_o the_o king_n in_o his_o ward_n which_o by_o these_o law_n be_v settle_v and_o the_o law_n of_o ireland_n bring_v much_o near_o the_o law_n of_o england_n than_o before_o and_o in_o this_o point_n i_o conceive_v i_o be_o not_o absolute_o gainsay_v but_o only_o conditional_o that_o be_v that_o notwithstanding_o this_o i_o have_v set_v up_o another_o government_n arbitrary_a and_o tyrannical_a to_o which_o i_o shall_v not_o now_o trouble_v your_o lordship_n with_o a_o answer_n that_o be_v in_o the_o particular_n of_o my_o charge_n and_o thus_o i_o think_v the_o first_o to_o be_v fair_o and_o clear_o answer_v then_o that_o there_o be_v more_o parliament_n in_o the_o time_n of_o my_o government_n than_o in_o 50_o year_n before_o there_o be_v two_o in_o my_o time_n and_o if_o i_o may_v call_v witness_n it_o will_v appear_v that_o there_o be_v not_o so_o many_o within_o that_o time_n before_o but_o be_v not_o material_a to_o my_o defence_n or_o condemnation_n i_o will_v not_o trouble_v your_o lordship_n with_o proof_n unless_o you_o will_v require_v it_o i_o have_v they_o here_o that_o i_o think_v can_v make_v it_o good_a and_o whereas_o in_o my_o answer_n i_o deny_v that_o i_o ever_o have_v hand_n in_o any_o project_n or_o monopoly_n and_o that_o i_o do_v prevent_v divers_a that_o otherwise_o will_v have_v pass_v i_o say_v that_o under_o favour_n with_o all_o duty_n and_o confidence_n i_o must_v still_o affirm_v it_o that_o i_o never_o have_v hand_n or_o share_v in_o any_o manner_n of_o monopoly_n or_o project_n whatsoever_o unless_o the_o tobacco-business_n be_v a_o monopoly_n which_o under_o favour_n i_o shall_v clear_v not_o to_o be_v but_o that_o be_v part_n of_o my_o charge_n i_o think_v it_o impertinent_a now_o to_o give_v answer_n unto_o it_o but_o will_v satisfy_v your_o lordship_n in_o that_o behalf_n in_o proper_a time_n and_o place_n but_o more_o than_o that_o of_o tobacco_n i_o say_v absolute_o and_o direct_o i_o never_o have_v my_o hand_n or_o share_v in_o any_o monopoly_n or_o project_n nay_o i_o do_v as_o murh_n as_o i_o can_v oppose_v all_o of_o they_o particular_o the_o monopoly_n of_o iron-pot_n for_o which_o i_o reserve_v myself_o to_o answer_n as_o part_v of_o my_o charge_n and_o a_o new_a book_n of_o rate_n whereby_o it_o be_v propose_v that_o the_o rate_n of_o the_o king_n custom_n may_v be_v increase_v and_o this_o i_o do_v oppose_v and_o disavow_v albeit_o i_o be_v a_o sharer_n in_o the_o farm_n and_o consequent_o shall_v have_v have_v the_o benefit_n and_o advantage_n of_o it_o for_o my_o proportion_n and_o by_o the_o king_n gracious_a goodness_n when_o his_o majesty_n come_v to_o be_v more_o full_o and_o clear_o inform_v of_o it_o it_o be_v stop_v and_o never_o go_v on_o and_o this_o i_o will_v make_v appear_v in_o that_o point_n of_o the_o article_n that_o concern_v the_o custom_n the_o four_o be_v that_o i_o have_v not_o have_v any_o great_a power_n or_o large_a commission_n than_o my_o predecessor_n in_o that_o government_n have_v have_v which_o i_o conceive_v under_o favour_n be_v not_o controvert_v but_o grant_v and_o therefore_o stand_v good_a to_o i_o or_o if_o it_o be_v controvert_v i_o be_o able_a to_o make_v it_o appear_v that_o i_o have_v bring_v in_o nothing_o more_o than_o be_v former_o accustom_v in_o the_o point_n of_o the_o deputies-commission_n the_o next_o thing_n in_o my_o answer_n be_v that_o the_o revenue_n of_o ireland_n be_v never_o able_a to_o support_v itself_o before_o my_o come_n thither_o and_o that_o i_o say_v still_o with_o all_o humility_n and_o duty_n be_v most_o true_a and_o i_o trust_v to_o make_v it_o apparent_o true_a present_o if_o your_o lordship_n will_v give_v i_o leave_v to_o call_v for_o and_o examine_v my_o witness_n it_o be_v the_o proof_n your_o lordship_n will_v look_v to_o and_o not_o to_o what_o be_v only_o allege_v by_o that_o worthy_a gentleman_n and_o further_o than_o your_o lordship_n shall_v find_v prove_v i_o desire_v not_o to_o be_v believe_v the_o proof_n offer_v against_o i_o be_v by_o sir_n edward_n warder_n and_o sir_n robert_n pie_n who_o testify_v that_o from_o the_o year_n 1621._o nothing_o go_v out_o of_o the_o king_n exchequer_n to_o supply_v the_o irish_a affair_n save_v only_o for_o the_o maritime_a occasion_n and_o this_o i_o believe_v to_o be_v true_a for_o they_o be_v gentleman_n of_o credit_n that_o speak_v it_o and_o i_o will_v believe_v they_o on_o their_o word_n much_o more_o on_o their_o oath_n but_o under_o favour_n there_o be_v for_o eight_o year_n together_o before_o my_o come_n a_o contribution_n of_o 20000_o l._n a_o year_n pay_v by_o the_o country_n which_o be_v no_o part_n of_o the_o king_n
revenue_n nor_o as_o i_o conceive_v ever_o come_v into_o account_n nor_o be_v pay_v into_o the_o exchequer_n as_o will_v appear_v on_o the_o fifteen_o article_n but_o be_v a_o gift_n of_o the_o country_n and_o apply_v to_o the_o king_n occasion_n and_o that_o determine_a the_o revenue_n fall_v short_a 20000_o l._n of_o the_o charge_n beside_o when_o i_o come_v into_o ireland_n the_o crown_n be_v extreme_o indebt_v above_o as_o i_o think_v not_o to_o stand_v on_o particular_a sum_n and_o penny_n 100000_o l._n sterling_n and_o by_o the_o gentleman_n be_v own_o say_n when_o i_o come_v out_o of_o ireland_n i_o leave_v 100000_o l._n in_o the_o king_n coffer_n and_o if_o any_o ask_v where_o the_o account_n for_o the_o subsidy_n be_v there_o be_v 100000_o l._n debt_n pay_v 100000_o l._n leave_v in_o the_o king_n coffer_n for_o it_o appear_v by_o sir_n adam_n loftus_n that_o there_o be_v 100000_o l._n in_o the_o exchequer_n when_o i_o come_v from_o thence_o there_o be_v 15000_o l._n employ_v for_o buy_v land_n that_o yield_v the_o king_n 2000_o l._n a_o year_n and_o so_o much_o of_o my_o lord_n of_o ormond_n as_o yield_v 2500_o l._n a_o year_n so_o that_o the_o account_n will_v show_v the_o bestow_n of_o the_o subsidy_n with_o as_o much_o advantage_n as_o may_v be_v for_o the_o king_n service_n that_o the_o revenue_n be_v short_a i_o can_v make_v appear_v clear_o the_o occasion_n that_o no_o money_n come_v out_o of_o the_o exchequer_n be_v accidental_a by_o a_o contribution_n of_o the_o country_n no_o revenue_n of_o the_o king_n and_o if_o that_o have_v not_o be_v supply_v there_o have_v be_v no_o possibility_n of_o defray_v the_o ordinary_a charge_n of_o the_o crown_n out_o of_o the_o revenue_n and_o that_o be_v the_o point_n wherein_o i_o differ_v from_o the_o gentleman_n his_o meaning_n be_v that_o the_o ordinary_a revenue_n of_o the_o kingdom_n can_v not_o bear_v the_o ordinary_a charge_n of_o the_o kingdom_n and_o i_o desire_v that_o sir_n adam_n loftus_n and_o sir_n robert_n dillom_n may_v be_v examine_v upon_o such_o question_n as_o shall_v be_v propound_v in_o this_o point_n your_o lordship_n may_v examine_v they_o but_o not_o upon_o oath_n steward_n i_o will_v not_o displease_v but_o perfect_o obey_v in_o every_o thing_n strafford_n it_o will_v not_o be_v deny_v but_o the_o revenue_n be_v increase_v by_o such_o mean_n as_o my_o manager_n lord_n of_o strafford_n have_v increase_v it_o by_o yet_o it_o be_v not_o the_o natural_a revenue_n but_o the_o additional_a part_n that_o come_v in_o by_o the_o bounty_n of_o the_o country_n that_o support_v the_o charge_n many_o year_n before_o my_o lord_n of_o strafford_n come_v so_o that_o if_o it_o be_v say_v ireland_n support_v not_o itself_o before_o he_o come_v thither_o in_o the_o general_a sense_n it_o be_v untrue_a if_o it_o be_v say_v in_o a_o special_a sense_n that_o the_o king_n proper_a revenue_n do_v not_o support_v it_o that_o his_o lordship_n say_v be_v true_a whence_o i_o infer_v that_o it_o be_v not_o much_o material_a to_o insist_v on_o this_o for_o i_o mean_v strafford_n it_o so_o and_o it_o be_v plain_a and_o clear_a that_o the_o king_n revenue_n there_o be_v not_o able_a to_o bear_v the_o charge_n of_o that_o kingdom_n by_o very_a near_o 23000_o l._n or_o 24000_o l._n a_o year_n and_o it_o be_v now_o able_a to_o bear_v its_o own_o charge_n and_o yet_o there_o be_v a_o increase_n of_o charge_n by_o 600_o horse_n by_o which_o the_o army_n be_v strong_a than_o it_o be_v and_o whereas_o it_o be_v say_v i_o be_v short_a in_o the_o ship_n i_o affirm_v that_o under_o favour_n i_o be_v not_o it_o be_v true_a that_o in_o the_o time_n of_o the_o late_a justice_n my_o lord_n of_o cork_n and_o my_o lord_n loftus_n the_o last_o year_n charge_v of_o the_o ship_n be_v pay_v forth_o of_o ireland_n but_o it_o be_v as_o true_a that_o when_o the_o kingdom_n undergo_v the_o charge_n they_o lessen_v the_o charge_n of_o the_o king_n army_n by_o strike_v 500_o off_o from_o the_o army_n and_o transfer_v the_o charge_n of_o their_o pay_n to_o the_o ease_n of_o the_o king_n revenue_n on_o the_o navy_n but_o that_o charge_v be_v now_o increase_v again_o and_o bring_v to_o the_o former_a certainty_n i_o conceive_v i_o may_v true_o say_v there_o be_v in_o my_o time_n a_o ease_n to_o the_o crown_n of_o england_n all_o thing_n consider_v which_o former_o it_o have_v not_o it_o be_v not_o with_o the_o prejudice_n of_o the_o king_n service_n elsewhere_o or_o lessen_v the_o stand_a army_n which_o in_o all_o time_n have_v be_v the_o strong_a support_n of_o the_o king_n justice_n and_o minister_n there_o and_o which_o it_o deep_o concern_v the_o crown_n of_o england_n to_o keep_v in_o such_o a_o condition_n that_o they_o may_v be_v responsible_a to_o the_o king_n for_o the_o service_n he_o shall_v command_v so_o that_o though_o the_o ship_n charge_v be_v pay_v the_o last_o year_n yet_o so_o pay_v that_o the_o king_n army_n be_v weaken_v 500_o foot_n whereas_o now_o it_o be_v pay_v and_o the_o king_n army_n raise_v to_o a_o certainty_n again_o and_o a_o change_n be_v make_v to_o the_o better_a for_o instead_o of_o 500_o foot_n there_o be_v 600_o horse_n and_o that_o i_o say_v my_o lord_n of_o cork_n remember_v very_o well_o there_o be_v letter_n of_o he_o that_o sir_n pierce_n crosby_n his_o regiment_n shall_v be_v put_v off_o and_o the_o money_n for_o maintenance_n thereof_o shall_v go_v to_o defray_v the_o charge_n of_o the_o king_n ship_n for_o guard_v of_o the_o coast._n and_o yet_o the_o charge_n be_v much_o more_o now_o than_o it_o be_v for_o the_o charge_n be_v then_o only_o two_o whelp_n as_o my_o lord_n mountnorris_n say_v and_o now_o there_o be_v three_o ship_n the_o swallow_n a_o ship_n of_o the_o three_o rank_n and_o two_o lesser_a vessel_n so_o that_o i_o conceive_v my_o answer_n in_o my_o sense_n be_v true_a for_o the_o matter_n of_o have_v money_n out_o of_o the_o exchequer_n i_o conceive_v my_o answer_n to_o contain_v no_o matter_n of_o untruth_n for_o i_o have_v out_o of_o the_o exchequer_n only_o 15000_o l._n and_o for_o that_o the_o king_n will_v be_v answer_v 2000_o l._n a_o year_n good_a fee-farm_n rent_n in_o lieu_n of_o it_o which_o he_o think_v be_v no_o ill_a bargain_n it_o be_v true_a i_o say_v the_o money_n speak_v of_o by_o sir_n adam_n loftus_n be_v borrow_v

then_o may_v not_o i_o borrow_v of_o a_o gentleman_n that_o will_v trust_v i_o with_o money_n but_o it_o must_v be_v a_o offence_n it_o be_v true_a it_o be_v of_o the_o king_n money_n but_o the_o
