the_o clergy_n which_o be_v no_o great_a sign_n that_o he_o make_v slight_a of_o his_o engagement_n of_o which_o it_o be_v so_o universal_o know_v that_o he_o have_v be_v so_o religious_o careful_a as_o i_o hold_v it_o a_o wrong_n to_o his_o innocency_n to_o seek_v to_o clear_v he_o of_o such_o slander_n for_o which_o there_o be_v no_o proof_n allege_v for_o malice_n be_v once_o detect_v be_v best_a answer_v with_o neglect_n and_o silence_n and_o be_v there_o ever_o great_a or_o more_o apparent_a malice_n then_o to_o offer_v to_o put_v the_o horrid_a slander_n of_o parricide_n upon_o he_o who_o be_v eminent_o know_v to_o be_v as_o obedient_a and_o love_a a_o son_n to_o his_o bless_a father_n as_o any_o history_n can_v make_v mention_n of_o but_o indeed_o the_o loss_n of_o rochel_n do_v

it_o be_v mere_o the_o want_n of_o assistance_n from_o the_o two_o house_n of_o parliament_n contrary_a to_o their_o public_a general_n engagement_n that_o lose_v rochel_n and_o there_o be_v nothing_o more_o clear_a to_o any_o who_o have_v know_v french_a occurrence_n then_o that_o real_a assistance_n which_o the_o king_n to_o the_o uttermost_a of_o his_o power_n give_v to_o those_o of_o the_o religion_n at_o that_o time_n make_v the_o cardinal_n of_o richelieu_n a_o irreconcilable_a enemy_n to_o the_o king_n wherefore_o i_o can_v but_o say_v that_o it_o be_v a_o strange_a forgetful_a boldness_n to_o charge_v the_o king_n with_o that_o which_o be_v evident_o other_o man_n fault_n there_o be_v also_o other_o thing_n that_o to_o any_o know_a man_n will_v rather_o seem_v jeer_n than_o acusation_n as_o the_o german_a horse_n and_o spanish_a fleet_n in_o the_o year_n 1639._o but_o my_o affection_n shall_v not_o so_o blind_v i_o as_o to_o say_v that_o the_o king_n never_o err_v yet_o as_o when_o a_o just_a debt_n be_v pay_v bond_n ought_v to_o be_v cancel_v so_o grievance_n be_v they_o never_o so_o just_a be_v once_o redress_v ought_v no_o more_o to_o be_v object_v as_o error_n and_o it_o be_v no_o paradox_n to_o affirm_v that_o truth_n this_o way_n tell_v be_v no_o better_o than_o slander_n and_o such_o be_v the_o catalogue_n of_o grievance_n here_o enumerate_v which_o when_o they_o be_v well_o examine_v every_o one_o of_o they_o will_v not_o be_v find_v such_o as_o here_o they_o be_v describe_v to_o be_v now_o as_o concerning_o those_o discourse_n which_o mention_v the_o beginning_n of_o these_o trouble_n which_o be_v in_o two_o several_a place_n of_o this_o declaration_n i_o will_v only_o say_v this_o that_o what_o the_o king_n do_v upon_o those_o occasion_n be_v mere_o to_o defend_v the_o right_n of_o his_o crown_n which_o be_v and_o be_v evident_o seek_v to_o be_v tear_v from_o he_o nor_o can_v i_o acknowledge_v all_o those_o relation_n to_o be_v true_a such_o as_o private_a levy_n of_o man_n by_o popish_a agent_n arm_v of_o papist_n in_o the_o north_n call_v in_o of_o danish_a force_n and_o the_o like_a and_o as_o for_o the_o stale_a slander_n of_o call_v up_o the_o northern_a army_n now_o renew_v it_o be_v well_o know_v that_o the_o two_o house_n even_o at_o that_o time_n be_v not_o so_o partial_a to_o the_o king_n as_o to_o have_v conceal_v a_o practice_n of_o that_o kind_n if_o they_o can_v have_v get_v it_o sufficient_o prove_v but_o if_o the_o irish_a rebellion_n can_v be_v just_o charge_v upon_o the_o king_n than_o i_o shall_v not_o blame_v any_o for_o believe_v all_o the_o rest_n of_o the_o allegation_n against_o he_o only_o i_o protest_v against_o all_o rebel_n testimony_n as_o good_a proof_n it_o be_v most_o certain_a by_o experience_n that_o they_o who_o make_v no_o conscience_n of_o rebel_v will_v make_v less_o of_o lie_v when_o it_o be_v for_o their_o advantage_n and_o it_o be_v no_o little_a wonder_n that_o so_o grave_a a_o assembly_n as_o the_o house_n of_o commons_o shall_v so_o slight_o examine_v a_o business_n of_o that_o great_a weight_n as_o to_o allege_v that_o the_o scot_n great_a seal_n do_v countenance_v the_o irish_a rebellion_n when_o i_o know_v it_o can_v be_v prove_v by_o witness_n without_o exception_n that_o for_o many_o month_n before_o until_o the_o now_o lord_n chancellor_n have_v the_o keep_n of_o it_o there_o be_v nothing_o at_o all_o seal_a by_o it_o nor_o concerning_o this_o great_a point_n will_v i_o only_o say_v that_o the_o king_n be_v innocent_a and_o bid_v they_o prove_v which_o to_o most_o accusation_n be_v a_o sufficient_a answer_n but_o i_o can_v prove_v that_o if_o the_o king_n have_v be_v obey_v in_o the_o irish_a affair_n before_o he_o go_v last_o into_o scotland_n there_o have_v be_v no_o irish_a rebellion_n and_o after_o it_o be_v begin_v it_o have_v in_o few_o month_n be_v subpress_v if_o his_o direction_n have_v be_v observe_v for_o if_o the_o king_n have_v be_v suffer_v to_o have_v perform_v his_o engagement_n to_o the_o irish_a agent_n and_o have_v dispose_v of_o the_o discontent_a irish_a army_n beyond_o sea_n according_a to_o his_o contract_n with_o the_o french_a and_o spanish_a ambassador_n there_o be_v nothing_o more_o clear_a then_o that_o there_o can_v have_v be_v no_o rebellion_n in_o ireland_n because_o they_o have_v want_v both_o pretence_n and_o mean_n to_o have_v make_v one_o then_o when_o it_o be_v break_v forth_o if_o those_o vigorous_a course_n have_v be_v pursue_v which_o the_o king_n propose_v first_o to_o the_o scot_n then_o to_o the_o english_a parliament_n doubtless_o that_o rebellion_n have_v be_v soon_o suppress_v but_o what_o he_o propose_v take_v so_o little_a effect_n that_o in_o many_o month_n after_o there_o be_v nothing_o send_v into_o ireland_n but_o what_o the_o king_n himself_o send_v assist_v by_o the_o duke_n of_o richmond_n before_o he_o come_v from_o scotland_n unto_o sir_n rob_n steward_n which_o though_o it_o be_v little_a will_v be_v find_v to_o have_v do_v much_o service_n as_o may_v be_v see_v by_o the_o say_a sir_n roberts_n voluntary_a testimony_n give_v in_o write_v to_o the_o parliament_n commissioner_n then_o attend_v the_o king_n at_o stoak_n and_o certain_o a_o great_a evidence_n for_o constancy_n in_o religion_n there_o can_v be_v than_o the_o king_n show_v in_o his_o irish_a treaty_n for_o in_o the_o time_n that_o he_o most_o need_v assistance_n it_o be_v in_o his_o power_n to_o have_v make_v that_o kingdom_n declare_v unanimous_o for_o he_o and_o have_v have_v the_o whole_a force_n thereof_o employ_v in_o his_o service_n if_o he_o will_v have_v grant_v their_o demand_n in_o point_n of_o religion_n they_o not_o insist_v in_o any_o thing_n of_o civil_a government_n which_o his_o majesty_n may_v not_o have_v grant_v without_o prejudice_n to_o regal_a authority_n and_o this_o can_v be_v clear_o prove_v by_o the_o marquis_n of_o ormond_n treaty_n with_o the_o irish_a not_o without_o very_o good_a evidence_n by_o some_o of_o the_o king_n letter_n to_o the_o queen_n which_o be_v take_v at_o naseby_n that_o be_v purposely_o conceal_v lest_o they_o shall_v too_o plain_o discover_v the_o king_n detestation_n of_o that_o rebellion_n and_o his_o rigid_a firmness_n to_o the_o protestant_a profession_n nor_o can_v i_o end_v this_o point_n without_o remark_n with_o wonder_n that_o man_n shall_v have_v so_o ill_a memory_n as_o again_o to_o renew_v that_o old_a slander_n of_o the_o king_n give_v pass_n to_o divers_a papist_n and_o person_n of_o quality_n who_o head_v the_o rebel_n of_o which_o he_o so_o clear_v himself_o that_o he_o demand_v reparation_n for_o it_o but_o can_v not_o have_v it_o albeit_o no_o show_n of_o proof_n can_v be_v produce_v for_o that_o allegation_n as_o be_v most_o plain_o to_o be_v see_v in_o the_o first_o book_n of_o the_o collection_n of_o all_o remonstrance_n declaration_n etc._n etc._n fol._n 69._o and_o 70._o thus_o have_v give_v a_o particular_a answer_n to_o the_o most_o material_a point_n in_o this_o declaration_n the_o rest_n be_v such_o frivolous_a malicious_a and_o many_o of_o they_o groundless_a calumny_n that_o contempt_n be_v the_o best_a answer_n for_o they_o yet_o one_o thing_n more_o i_o must_v observe_v that_o they_o not_o only_o endeavour_v to_o make_v fable_n pass_v for_o currant_n coin_n but_o likewise_o seek_v to_o blind_a man_n judgement_n with_o false_a inference_n upon_o some_o truth_n for_o example_n it_o be_v true_a that_o the_o king_n have_v say_v in_o some_o of_o his_o speech_n or_o declaration_n that_o he_o owe_v a_o account_n of_o his_o action_n to_o none_o but_o god_n alone_o and_o that_o the_o house_n of_o parliament_n joint_a or_o separate_a have_v no_o power_n either_o to_o make_v or_o declare_v any_o law_n but_o that_o this_o be_v a_o fit_a foundation_n for_o all_o tyranny_n i_o must_v utter_o deny_v indeed_o if_o it_o have_v be_v say_v that_o the_o king_n without_o the_o two_o house_n of_o parliament_n can_v make_v or_o declare_v law_n than_o there_o may_v be_v some_o strength_n in_o the_o argument_n but_o before_o this_o parliament_n it_o be_v never_o so_o much_o as_o pretend_a that_o either_o or_o both_o house_n without_o the_o king_n can_v make_v or_o declare_v any_o law_n and_o certain_o his_o majesty_n be_v not_o the_o first_o and_o i_o hope_v will_v not_o be_v the_o last_o king_n of_o england_n that_o have_v not_o hold_v himself_o accountable_a to_o any_o earthly_a power_n beside_o it_o will_v be_v find_v that_o this_o his_o majesty_n position_n be_v most_o agreeable_a to_o all_o divine_a and_o human_a law_n so_o far_o it_o be_v from_o be_v destructive_a to_o a_o kingdom_n or_o a_o
