say_v he_o many_o great_a thing_n already_o as_o the_o exclusion_n of_o the_o popish_a lord_n from_o their_o seat_n in_o parliament_n the_o execution_n of_o several_a man_n both_o upon_o the_o score_n of_o the_o plot_n and_o the_o murder_n of_o sir_n edmund-bury-godfrey_n and_o it_o be_v apparent_a that_o i_o have_v not_o be_v idle_a in_o prosecute_a the_o discovery_n of_o both_o as_o much_o further_a as_o have_v be_v possible_a for_o i_o in_o so_o short_a a_o time_n and_o above_o all_o i_o have_v command_v my_o brother_n to_o absent_v himself_o from_o i_o because_o i_o will_v not_o leave_v the_o most_o malicious_a man_n room_n to_o say_v i_o have_v not_o remove_v all_o cause_n which_o can_v be_v pretend_v to_o influence_n i_o towards_o popish_a council_n from_o these_o word_n of_o the_o king_n we_o may_v very_o reasonable_o infer_v what_o be_v true_a in_o the_o judgement_n of_o as_o great_a a_o man_n as_o this_o and_o i_o believe_v any_o other_o nation_n can_v show_v that_o he_o who_o for_o our_o sake_n can_v part_v with_o such_o a_o brother_n have_v now_o to_o be_v sure_o no_o favourite_n but_o his_o people_n and_o true_o it_o be_v to_o be_v believe_v that_o he_o who_o in_o so_o many_o year_n have_v deny_v nothing_o to_o his_o people_n that_o one_o thing_n except_v so_o often_o desire_v and_o as_o often_o deny_v the_o duke_n exclusion_n be_v he_o real_o as_o well_o satisfy_v that_o he_o may_v as_o rightful_o for_o no_o man_n question_n but_o he_o may_v legal_o and_o in_o good_a conscience_n put_v he_o by_o the_o crown_n for_o ever_o as_o he_o may_v remove_v he_o from_o his_o person_n for_o a_o time_n without_o all_o doubt_n he_o will_v do_v it_o if_o then_o so_o many_o denial_n to_o depart_v from_o his_o resolution_n of_o preserve_v the_o descent_n be_v as_o sure_o they_o be_v the_o effect_n of_o his_o judgement_n it_o be_v not_o perhaps_o a_o matter_n of_o such_o wonder_n that_o a_o conscientious_a prince_n shall_v refuse_v to_o do_v what_o he_o real_o believe_v will_v be_v a_o wrongful_a act_n how_o profitable_a and_o expedient_a soever_o it_o may_v be_v nay_o further_o it_o be_v perhaps_o the_o very_o worst_a condition_n of_o a_o people_n to_o have_v a_o prince_n who_o in_o act_v take_v not_o his_o measure_n by_o what_o be_v right_o and_o honest_a but_o profitable_a and_o convenient_a yet_o notwithstanding_o all_o this_o the_o effect_n of_o judgement_n be_v mistake_v and_o i_o fear_v by_o some_o wilful_o misconstrue_v for_o inclination_n and_o the_o king_n in_o some_o man_n judgement_n believe_v not_o the_o plot_n a_o

respect_n so_o merciful_a will_v never_o have_v give_v way_n to_o the_o execution_n of_o so_o many_o man_n if_o he_o have_v not_o believe_v they_o guilty_a they_o no_o doubt_n guess_v better_a who_o conclude_v he_o believe_v not_o his_o brother_n in_o the_o plot_n now_o that_o execution_n of_o so_o many_o man_n do_v as_o clear_o convince_v i_o that_o the_o king_n believe_v the_o plot_n as_o the_o
