that_o i_o shall_v be_v general_n of_o the_o horse_n but_o i_o protest_v neither_o to_o the_o king_n nor_o any_o else_o do_v i_o ever_o so_o much_o as_o think_v of_o it_o my_o lord_n of_o holland_n

protest_v unto_o you_o upon_o my_o faith_n and_o willmat_n ashburnham_n and_o oneale_n have_v at_o several_a time_n confess_v and_o swear_v i_o never_o say_v any_o thing_n in_o the_o business_n they_o do_v not_o every_o one_o agree_v unto_o and_o will_v justify_v this_o relation_n i_o send_v you_o rather_o to_o inform_v you_o of_o the_o truth_n of_o the_o matter_n that_o you_o may_v the_o better_a know_v to_o do_v i_o good_a but_o i_o shall_v think_v myself_o very_o unhappy_a to_o be_v make_v a_o betrayer_n of_o any_o body_n what_o concern_v the_o tower_n or_o any_o thing_n else_o i_o never_o

one_o word_n with_o suckling_n carnarvan_n davenant_n or_o any_o other_o creature_n i_o think_v if_o my_o friend_n and_o kindred_n know_v the_o truth_n and_o justice_n of_o the_o matter_n it_o be_v no_o hard_a matter_n to_o serve_v i_o in_o some_o measure_n colonel_n goring_n declaration_n on_o his_o examination_n concern_v the_o late_a conspiracy_n against_o the_o state_n have_v be_v tell_v there_o be_v a_o intention_n to_o unite_v the_o force_n of_o our_o army_n and_o to_o put_v it_o into_o a_o posture_n of_o be_v able_a if_o not_o of_o purpose_n of_o be_v willing_a to_o interpose_v in_o the_o proceed_n of_o parliament_n i_o hearkend_v to_o the_o proposition_n of_o solicit_v a_o redress_n for_o the_o misery_n of_o the_o soldier_n be_v the_o first_o step_n to_o this_o in_o respect_n of_o the_o present_a necessity_n of_o it_o not_o any_o future_a consequence_n of_o trouble_n to_o those_o that_o be_v to_o procure_v our_o relief_n but_o lest_o the_o manner_n of_o ask_v this_o or_o the_o effect_n of_o it_o be_v obtain_v may_v be_v less_o just_a than_o the_o thing_n itself_o which_o be_v desire_v &_o i_o may_v be_v involve_v their_o crime_n that_o have_v further_a end_n perhaps_o then_o mere_o the_o redress_n of_o our_o army_n grievance_n i_o think_v it_o not_o unsafe_a to_o take_v some_o witness_n of_o my_o integrity_n along_o with_o i_o and_o speak_v to_o a_o noble_a lord_n the_o very_a same_o day_n when_o i_o assure_v he_o there_o be_v some_o officer_n of_o the_o army_n that_o be_v least_o think_v on_o that_o have_v great_a zeal_n to_o the_o proceed_n of_o this_o house_n &_o i_o think_v there_o will_v be_v a_o occasion_n to_o let_v he_o know_v more_o of_o it_o within_o few_o day_n after_o this_o master_n jermin_n and_o i_o be_v admit_v into_o a_o consultation_n where_o we_o be_v tie_v to_o secrecy_n by_o a_o oath_n in_o the_o company_n of_o those_o gentleman_n i_o have_v name_v in_o my_o deposition_n where_o their_o purpose_n be_v declare_v to_o we_o in_o some_o proposition_n which_o be_v to_o this_o effect_n 1._o first_o put_v our_o army_n into_o a_o posture_n to_o serve_v the_o king_n 2._o second_o send_v a_o declaration_n to_o the_o parliament_n contain_v that_o no_o act_n of_o parliament_n shall_v be_v make_v contrary_a to_o any_o former_a act_n which_o be_v express_v that_o episcopacy_n will_v be_v keep_v up_o as_o it_o be_v now_o 3._o three_o and_o that_o the_o king_n revenue_n shall_v be_v establish_v this_o i_o think_v unlawful_a for_o our_o undertake_n since_o i_o think_v they_o intend_v to_o interpose_v the_o determination_n of_o this_o house_n and_o it_o belong_v to_o a_o army_n to_o maintain_v not_o to_o contrive_v act_n of_o state_n i_o object_v therefore_o against_o the_o proposition_n and_o press_v more_o the_o folly_n and_o difficulty_n than_o the_o illegality_n of_o they_o not_o only_o because_o i_o think_v reason_n a_o great_a argument_n with_o they_o then_o conscience_n but_o because_o i_o be_o so_o unhappy_a of_o the_o two_o 2_o be_v think_v a_o worse_a commonwealth's_a man_n than_o a_o soldier_n and_o in_o that_o quality_n can_v procure_v most_o credit_n to_o my_o word_n and_o i_o endeavour_v to_o show_v they_o that_o as_o the_o design_n will_v be_v impious_a if_o their_o most_o desperate_a counsel_n have_v be_v follow_v so_o it_o will_v have_v be_v the_o weak_a that_o ever_o be_v undertake_v if_o it_o be_v admit_v and_o whereas_o i_o be_o say_v to_o have_v a_o part_n in_o this_o violent_a counsel_n till_o the_o day_n before_o this_o meeting_n i_o never_o hear_v word_n of_o it_o &_o know_v not_o when_o i_o come_v to_o the_o room_n whether_o they_o be_v not_o the_o same_o with_o the_o other_o this_o they_o may_v witness_v for_o i_o and_o that_o i_o declare_v that_o i_o will_v have_v to_o do_v with_o neither_o and_o that_o i_o express_v a_o contempt_n in_o our_o meeting_n in_o that_o manner_n but_o i_o rely_v upon_o the_o testimony_n of_o some_o noble_a lord_n of_o his_o majesty_n counsel_n and_o other_o how_o i_o protest_v against_o all_o those_o violent_a counsel_n even_o in_o the_o birth_n of_o they_o and_o with_o what_o pity_n i_o look_v towards_o the_o person_n of_o his_o majesty_n and_o the_o whole_a kingdom_n in_o this_o business_n i_o appeal_v also_o to_o they_o and_o to_o some_o member_n of_o this_o house_n what_o my_o carriage_n be_v towards_o these_o gentleman_n that_o be_v embark_v in_o these_o undertake_n intend_v rather_o to_o prevent_v a_o mischief_n by_o abandon_v their_o counsel_n then_o to_o ruin_v they_o by_o disclose_v they_o but_o mistake_v i_o not_o for_o have_v i_o know_v of_o any_o former_a plot_n proceed_v in_o that_o will_v endanger_v or_o disturb_v the_o quiet_a of_o his_o majesty_n or_o the_o peace_n of_o this_o kingdom_n i_o shall_v not_o have_v be_v content_v with_o declare_v my_o own_o innocence_n nor_o have_v stay_v till_o the_o command_n of_o this_o house_n or_o a_o oath_n extort_a from_o i_o a_o discovery_n but_o by_o a_o hasty_a open_a declaration_n have_v break_v the_o bond_n of_o amity_n and_o friendship_n and_o all_o former_a tie_n to_o preserve_v the_o duty_n of_o a_o subject_a and_o as_o free_o expose_v the_o knowledge_n of_o all_o to_o the_o view_n of_o the_o world_n as_o i_o have_v be_v tender_a in_o publish_v these_o purpose_n even_o to_o my_o near_a friend_n which_o have_v weight_n enough_o to_o crush_v nothing_o but_o the_o undertaker_n of_o it_o and_o certain_o if_o they_o have_v stay_v where_o i_o leave_v they_o there_o be_v no_o conclusion_n at_o all_o it_o appear_v
