the_o solemn_a protestation_n of_o miles_n prance_v in_o reference_n to_o the_o murder_n of_o sir_n edmundbury_n godfrey_n and_o as_o concern_v mr._n roger_n l'estrange_n whereas_o some_o bold_a and_o ill_a man_n have_v several_a time_n by_o various_a but_o different_a suggestion_n and_o particular_o more_o open_o of_o late_a pretend_v they_o be_v able_a to_o disprove_v the_o account_n i_o give_v from_o my_o personal_a knowledge_n of_o the_o murder_n of_o sir_n edmundbury_n godfrey_n wherein_o with_o unspeakable_a grief_n though_o yet_o not_o without_o a_o firm_a belief_n of_o forgiveness_n from_o almighty_a god_n upon_o unfeigned_a repentance_n as_o well_o as_o the_o grant_v of_o his_o most_o gracious_a majesty_n my_o earthly_a sovereign_n pardon_n i_o acknowledge_v myself_o most_o wicked_o draw_v in_o and_o concern_v and_o whereas_o likewise_o be_v just_o call_v thereunto_o i_o do_v on_o the_o 25_o of_o october_n 1680._o in_o service_n to_o truth_n the_o protestant_a religion_n my_o king_n and_o country_n most_o true_o depose_v that_o about_o three_o year_n before_o that_o time_n i_o see_v mr._n roger_n l'estrange_n three_o or_o four_o time_n kneel_v at_o mass_n in_o the_o

with_o i_o be_v steal_v away_o when_o it_o be_v not_o since_o all_o these_o suggestion_n be_v not_o only_o most_o notorious_o false_a and_o prejudicial_a to_o my_o reputation_n but_o also_o tend_v
