majesty_n herein_o do_v more_o than_o i_o desire_v and_o when_o i_o be_v very_o willing_a to_o have_v give_v 5_o l._n in_o gold_n for_o sir_n henry_n bennet_n fee_n that_o most_o courteous_a gentleman_n mr._n quod-dolphin_n say_v i_o shall_v not_o pay_v one_o penny_n but_o sir_n henry_n will_v lay_v that_o upon_o the_o church_n and_o my_o lord_n of_o canterbury_n score_n so_o fair_o and_o so_o friendly_a be_v i_o use_v at_o his_o majesty_n court_n the_o lord_n bless_v they_o and_o reward_v they_o for_o it_o and_o grant_v they_o always_o the_o like_a favour_n a_o i_o find_v with_o they_o and_o when_o i_o come_v with_o his_o majesty_n reference_n to_o my_o lord_n duke_n of_o ormond_n i_o find_v his_o grace_n as_o honourable_a and_o very_o gracious_a in_o his_o answer_n and_o direction_n to_o i_o but_o when_o his_o grace_n refer_v the_o petition_n that_o i_o draw_v to_o his_o grace_n to_o do_v as_o his_o majesty_n direct_v and_o his_o majesty_n reference_n to_o the_o council-table_n i_o must_v acknowledge_v that_o i_o fear_v the_o success_n and_o so_o it_o happen_v according_a to_o my_o fear_n for_o when_o i_o be_v call_v before_o the_o council_n his_o grace_n say_v he_o be_v no_o lawyer_n but_o he_o leave_v the_o matter_n to_o they_o to_o inform_v i_o what_o be_v to_o be_v do_v according_a to_o law_n and_o my_o lord_n chancellor_n say_v that_o both_o myself_o in_o my_o relation_n and_o my_o lawyer_n and_o counsel_n confess_v that_o the_o judge_n do_v act_v and_o their_o proceed_n be_v according_a to_o law_n and_o therefore_o i_o must_v even_o begin_v again_o and_o it_o be_v my_o best_a course_n to_o proceed_v according_a to_o law_n and_o i_o answer_v if_o all_o this_o in_o my_o proceed_n be_v law_n i_o pray_v god_n send_v we_o a_o better_a law_n for_o i_o show_v the_o whole_a proceed_n to_o his_o majesty_n and_o to_o divers_a of_o the_o judge_n of_o england_n and_o they_o say_v this_o be_v a_o fair_a proceed_n indeed_o to_o set_v up_o a_o man_n of_o straw_n and_o then_o shoot_v at_o he_o to_o bring_v a_o false_a indictment_n to_o the_o court_n and_o then_o quash_n it_o for_o i_o prove_v it_o in_o the_o open_a court_n by_o the_o confession_n of_o the_o clerk_n of_o the_o peace_n that_o bring_v the_o true_a indictment_n with_o he_o to_o the_o court_n and_o acknowledge_v that_o the_o other_o be_v falsify_v either_o by_o the_o clerk_n that_o he_o trust_v to_o write_v it_o or_o by_o some_o other_o he_o know_v not_o who_o that_o the_o indictment_n bring_v to_o the_o court_n be_v not_o the_o true_a indictment_n that_o be_v find_v by_o the_o jury_n and_o so_o without_o any_o more_o word_n my_o lord_n grace_n seem_v to_o i_o very_o gracious_o to_o smile_v and_o so_o i_o be_v dismiss_v effect_n but_o i_o fear_v that_o the_o favour_n which_o sir_n geo._n ayskue_o find_v in_o every_o place_n against_o i_o may_v produce_v no_o good_a effect_n and_o then_o i_o call_v to_o mind_v the_o cause_n that_o move_v i_o to_o fear_v the_o success_n i_o shall_v have_v at_o the_o council-table_n not_o injustice_n that_o i_o mean_v not_o i_o know_v that_o they_o be_v just_a but_o that_o the_o justice_n i_o shall_v have_v will_v not_o be_v to_o my_o advantage_n and_o the_o favour_n that_o i_o desire_v for_o when_o i_o still_o ind●ed_v the_o forcible_a enterer_n and_o still_o proceed_v against_o sir_n george_n ayskue_n tenant_n he_o prefer_v a_o petition_n to_o the_o council-table_n about_o this_o lordship_n of_o bishop_n court_n and_o i_o hear_v of_o it_o conceive_v that_o before_o any_o thing_n shall_v be_v do_v thereupon_o i_o shall_v have_v the_o favour_n to_o be_v make_v acquaint_v with_o the_o same_o petition_n that_o i_o may_v answer_v it_o but_o i_o can_v hear_v nothing_o of_o it_o until_o a_o little_a while_n after_o some_o of_o the_o bishop_n by_o reason_n of_o the_o power_n to_o my_o l._n lieutenant_n and_o counsel_n give_v by_o the_o last_o proviso_n in_o the_o act_n of_o settlement_n fear_v that_o they_o will_v alter_v and_o retrench_v some_o of_o his_o majesty_n favour_n and_o additional_n grant_v unto_o they_o by_o the_o say_a act_n petition_v that_o they_o will_v not_o do_v so_o but_o leave_v all_o thing_n that_o concern_v the_o bishop_n statu_fw-la quo_fw-la as_o they_o be_v express_v in_o the_o act_n without_o alteration_n or_o retrenchment_n and_o my_o lord_n lieutenant_n and_o counsel_n grant_v their_o petition_n but_o with_o this_o only_a proviso_n that_o sir_n george_n ayskue_n right_o may_v be_v preserve_v that_o be_v as_o i_o conceive_v against_o all_o the_o bishop_n for_o that_o none_o be_v name_v and_o this_o proviso_n of_o all_o the_o man_n in_o ireland_n be_v but_o only_o for_o sir_n george_n ayskue_n and_o of_o all_o the_o bishop_n in_o ireland_n it_o seem_v by_o all_o likelihood_n only_o prejudicial_a to_o the_o bishop_n of_o ossory_n which_o notwithstanding_o if_o the_o last_o proviso_n in_o the_o act_n of_o settlement_n be_v well_o understand_v and_o right_o follow_v can_v be_v no_o prejudice_n to_o he_o at_o all_o as_o i_o conceive_v it_o for_o that_o the_o power_n give_v to_o my_o lord_n lieutenant_n and_o counsel_n by_o that_o proviso_n be_v as_o i_o understand_v it_o a_o power_n to_o alter_v and_o retrench_v any_o thing_n in_o part_n or_o in_o whole_a which_o they_o shall_v find_v either_o contrary_n to_o his_o majesty_n declaration_n or_o inconsistent_a with_o proviso_n which_o be_v the_o very_a word_n in_o the_o proviso_n or_o to_o the_o general_a settlement_n of_o the_o kingdom_n and_o i_o conceive_v that_o the_o suffering_n of_o the_o bishop_n of_o ossory_n to_o enjoy_v his_o own_o house_n and_o land_n where_o the_o bishop_n use_v to_o live_v and_o reside_v can_v be_v contrary_a to_o his_o majesty_n declaration_n not_o inconsistent_a with_o the_o general_a settlement_n of_o the_o kingdom_n and_o therefore_o i_o humble_o conceive_v that_o my_o lord_n lieutenant_n and_o counsel_n have_v no_o power_n by_o that_o proviso_n grant_v unto_o they_o to_o take_v away_o his_o majesty_n grant_v and_o favour_n to_o the_o bishop_n of_o ossory_n and_o to_o settle_v the_o same_o upon_o sir_n george_n ayskue_n especial_o if_o his_o majesty_n be_v deceive_v in_o his_o grant_n to_o sir_n george_n ayskue_n as_o i_o very_o believe_v he_o be_v for_o his_o majesty_n grant_v he_o the_o land_n settle_v upon_o he_o for_o his_o service_n in_o ireland_n and_o i_o have_v search_v and_o examine_v the_o matter_n as_o much_o as_o ever_o i_o can_v and_o yet_o can_v never_o find_v nor_o understand_v what_o service_n he_o have_v do_v in_o ireland_n that_o deserve_v to_o carry_v away_o the_o house_n and_o land_n of_o the_o bishop_n of_o ossory_n or_o indeed_o of_o any_o service_n that_o he_o do_v in_o ireland_n at_o all_o either_o for_o king_n or_o parliament_n and_o if_o for_o all_o this_o he_o carry_v the_o bishop_n house_n away_o i_o will_v sing_v mopso_n nisa_n datur_fw-la and_o see_v how_o many_o of_o the_o

reason_n 1._o because_o the_o difficulty_n of_o frame_v the_o indictment_n so_o that_o a_o cunning_a lawyer_n can_v easy_o find_v a_o fault_n and_o a_o flaw_n in_o it_o and_o then_o the_o frequent_a quash_a of_o such_o indictment_n as_o be_v find_v faulty_a be_v a_o great_a wrong_n to_o his_o majesty_n in_o deprive_v he_o of_o those_o fine_n that_o otherwise_o be_v due_a and_o shall_v be_v render_v unto_o he_o 2._o it_o be_v a_o great_a abuse_n and_o injury_n unto_o the_o poor_a subject_n that_o shall_v be_v drive_v out_o of_o his_o possession_n and_o for_o want_v of_o a_o sufficient_a clerk_n or_o counsellor_n to_o draw_v the_o right_a form_n of_o his_o indictment_n which_o as_o i_o see_v few_o can_v do_v he_o shall_v both_o spend_v his_o money_n and_o lose_v his_o labour_n and_o perhaps_o he_o be_v not_o able_a to_o do_v as_o i_o do_v three_o or_o four_o time_n to_o draw_v indictment_n till_o he_o find_v one_o that_o may_v stand_v good_a 3._o this_o frequent_a quash_a of_o indictment_n be_v a_o great_a encouragement_n for_o oppressor_n and_o wicked_a man_n to_o wrong_v their_o neighbour_n more_o and_o more_o for_o say_v they_o i_o will_v enter_v upon_o he_o and_o thrust_v he_o out_o and_o if_o he_o do_v indite_v i_o i_o will_v remove_v it_o to_o the_o king_n bench_n and_o i_o shall_v find_v a_o lawyer_n that_o will_v quash_n his_o indictment_n by_o and_o by_o 4._o this_o very_a practice_n and_o proceed_n may_v be_v fear_v to_o prove_v the_o very_a bane_n and_o destruction_n of_o whole_a nation_n and_o kingdom_n for_o if_o righteousness_n exalt_v a_o

the_o truth_n of_o my_o enemy_n but_o for_o myself_o i_o thank_v god_n for_o it_o as_o i_o live_v many_o year_n very_o quiet_o and_o content_o with_o far_o less_o mean_n than_o 20_o li._n a_o year_n

by_o this_o proceed_v whosoever_o do_v it_o be_v as_o i_o conceive_v more_o against_o the_o king_n and_o the_o church_n than_o against_o myself_o and_o if_o the_o proviso_n for_o sir_n george_n
