some_o reflection_n upon_o the_o earl_n of_o danby_n in_o relation_n to_o the_o murder_n of_o sir_n edmondbury_n godfrey_n in_o a_o letter_n to_o a_o friend_n sir_n i_o do_v in_o all_o sincerity_n and_o christian_a love_n give_v you_o the_o trouble_n of_o these_o line_n that_o you_o nor_o the_o rest_n of_o your_o friend_n at_o a_o distance_n may_v not_o be_v altogether_o ignorant_a of_o the_o cause_n which_o have_v prevent_v the_o good_a we_o expect_v by_o the_o late_a session_n of_o parliament_n which_o have_v end_v so_o surprise_o indeed_o to_o the_o amazement_n and_o trouble_n of_o all_o party_n except_o some_o few_o concern_v in_o the_o black_a counsel_n and_o dark_a design_n have_v of_o late_o be_v take_v such_o person_n will_v with_o all_o industry_n imaginable_a seek_v to_o spread_v abroad_o that_o the_o obstinacy_n of_o the_o house_n of_o commons_o for_o the_o trial_n of_o the_o earl_n of_o danby_n before_o the_o five_o popish_a lord_n and_o exclude_v the_o bishop_n from_o have_v any_o vote_n therein_o contrary_a to_o the_o judgement_n of_o the_o lord_n make_v their_o continuance_n unpracticable_a which_o though_o perhaps_o true_a as_o thing_n have_v be_v manage_v yet_o if_o the_o reason_n which_o be_v here_o enclose_v be_v observe_v and_o the_o ground_n for_o those_o reason_n take_v in_o their_o secret_a committee_n be_v examine_v they_o can_v not_o but_o proceed_v in_o the_o method_n they_o do_v except_o they_o will_v betray_v the_o trust_n repose_v in_o they_o by_o suffer_v the_o great_a incendiary_n and_o poison_n of_o the_o nation_n to_o escape_v in_o the_o dark_a whilst_o flood_n of_o other_o blood_n and_o perhaps_o some_o of_o innocent_n must_v have_v be_v let_v out_o to_o hoodwinck_v the_o people_n from_o discern_v the_o true_a cause_n of_o the_o decay_n of_o trade_n and_o other_o danger_n and_o misery_n they_o at_o present_a lie_n under_o therefore_o the_o better_a to_o clear_a thing_n to_o you_o i_o have_v verbatim_o transcribe_v a_o paper_n send_v to_o divers_a parliament-man_n and_o examine_v in_o the_o secret_a committee_n of_o commons_o which_o be_v in_o these_o word_n follow_v it_o be_v general_o think_v and_o there_o be_v great_a reason_n to_o believe_v that_o other_o person_n be_v concern_v in_o the_o murder_n of_o sir_n edmondbury_n godfrey_n than_o have_v be_v yet_o bring_v upon_o the_o stage_n now_o to_o find_v who_o these_o be_v likely_a to_o be_v the_o rule_n of_o dr._n lloyd_n in_o his_o funeral_n sermon_n in_o casius_n his_o word_n be_v the_o most_o proper_a way_n cui_fw-la bono_fw-mi for_o who_o interest_n be_v it_o if_o without_o partiality_n we_o can_v be_v guide_v by_o that_o rule_n therefore_o not_o to_o find_v fault_n with_o other_o in_o their_o guess_n i_o will_v take_v leave_n to_o inquire_v by_o some_o matter_n of_o fact_n whether_o the_o earl_n of_o danby_n have_v not_o as_o much_o reason_n to_o wish_v he_o out_o of_o the_o world_n as_o any_o papist_n and_o then_o by_o the_o same_o way_n to_o inquire_v whether_o he_o be_v not_o as_o likely_a to_o have_v it_o in_o his_o power_n to_o do_v it_o and_o last_o whether_o by_o some_o strong_a circumstance_n he_o be_v not_o willing_a to_o put_v that_o power_n in_o act_n leave_v the_o proof_n of_o all_o to_o the_o inquiry_n of_o such_o as_o be_v in_o authority_n to_o do_v it_o first_o i_o be_o confident_a it_o be_v not_o hard_a to_o prove_v that_o sir_n edmondbury_n godfrey_n when_o he_o take_v the_o examination_n from_o dr._n oates_n and_o dr._n tongue_n do_v require_v of_o they_o by_o the_o oath_n or_o o●●●●_n they_o or_o any_o of_o they_o have_v take_v to_o tell_v he_o whether_o the_o business_n have_v not_o be_v reveal_v by_o they_o to_o any_o other_o person_n before_o that_o time_n to_o which_o after_o some_o dispute_v between_o they_o whether_o they_o be_v bind_v to_o answer_v such_o question_n first_o they_o do_v comply_v and_o acknowledge_v that_o it_o have_v be_v make_v know_v to_o t●e_v lord_n

to_o prove_v that_o all_o this_o transaction_n he_o immediate_o make_v know_v to_o mr._n coleman_n who_o at_o his_o request_n go_v to_o windsor_n to_o inform_v the_o duke_n of_o it_o it_o be_v

the_o mean_n of_o mr._n kirby_n a_o merchant_n brother_n to_o col._n kirby_n long_o before_o the_o time_n he_o pretend_v to_o have_v hear_v of_o it_o from_o the_o king_n sir_n edmondbury_n godfrey_n

the_o lord_n danby_n of_o which_o he_o complain_v to_o divers_a person_n of_o quality_n particular_o in_o danby_n house_n when_o he_o wait_v to_o speak_v with_o he_o the_o very_a mor●ing_n of_o that_o day_n on_o which_o he_o be_v say_v to_o be_v murder_v now_o suppose_v the_o earl_n of_o danby_n have_v reason_n to_o fear_v the_o king_n and_o duke_n anger_n for_o conceal_v the_o discovery_n so_o long_o before_o make_v to_o he_o and_o that_o he_o be_v willing_a to_o keep_v they_o 〈◊〉_d a_o opinion_n he_o know_v nothing_o of_o it_o till_o he_o have_v it_o from_o his_o majesty_n then_o who_o

the_o earl_n of_o danby_n treachery_n in_o tamper_n so_o long_o with_o and_o conceal_v a_o matter_n so_o dangerous_a to_o both_o as_o the_o plot_n whether_o true_a or_o false_a must_v of_o necessity_n
