or_o his_o good_n secure_v for_o treason_n it_o be_v most_o unjust_a to_o use_v such_o severity_n without_o very_o good_a ground_n because_o this_o act_n of_o parliament_n say_v that_o if_o person_n

allowance_n be_v only_o specifick_o give_v to_o duke_n marquess_n earl_n viscount_n lord_n or_o prelate_n and_o yet_o i_o see_v no_o reason_n for_o the_o distinction_n but_o on_o the_o contrary_a it_o
