father_n le_fw-fr cheese_n there_o be_v two_o small_a matter_n they_o treat_v of_o no_o less_o than_o the_o dissolve_v the_o parliament_n and_o the_o extirpation_n of_o the_o protestant_a religion_n nay_o you_o will_v find_v and_o you_o will_v hear_v enough_o when_o the_o letter_n come_v to_o be_v read_v that_o mr._n coleman_n make_v many_o stroke_n at_o the_o parliament_n he_o have_v no_o good_a opinion_n of_o they_o and_o we_o can_v blame_v he_o for_o without_o all_o peradventure_o they_o have_v make_v and_o i_o hope_v ever_o will_v make_v strong_a resistance_n against_o such_o design_n as_o these_o but_o a_o great_a mind_n he_o have_v to_o be_v rid_v of_o they_o and_o he_o have_v hope_n of_o great_a sum_n of_o money_n from_o abroad_o if_o it_o have_v be_v to_o be_v do_v that_o way_n and_o it_o be_v very_o remarkable_a and_o show_v the_o vanity_n of_o the_o man_n he_o have_v such_o a_o opinion_n of_o the_o success_n of_o these_o negotiation_n that_o he_o have_v pen_v a_o declaration_n prepare_v by_o he_o and_o write_v with_o his_o own_o hand_n to_o be_v publish_v in_o print_n up_o on_o the_o dissolution_n of_o the_o parliament_n to_o justify_v that_o action_n with_o many_o specious_a and_o plausible_a reason_n as_o he_o do_v this_o without_o any_o direction_n so_o he_o take_v upon_o he_o to_o write_v a_o declaration_n as_o in_o the_o name_n of_o the_o king_n without_o the_o least_o shadow_n of_o any_o command_n to_o do_v it_o so_o he_o prepare_v a_o letter_n also_o in_o the_o name_n of_o the_o duke_n and_o i_o will_v not_o affirm_v unless_o i_o can_v prove_v it_o and_o that_o from_o his_o own_o confession_n be_v examine_v before_o the_o lord_n upon_o oath_n that_o he_o have_v no_o manner_n of_o authority_n from_o the_o duke_n to_o prepare_v such_o a_o letter_n and_o when_o it_o be_v write_v and_o bring_v to_o the_o duke_n it_o be_v reject_v and_o the_o writer_n just_o blame_v for_o his_o presumption_n by_o this_o you_o will_v perceive_v the_o forwardness_n of_o this_o man._n and_o you_o must_v of_o necessity_n take_v notice_n that_o in_o his_o letter_n he_o take_v upon_o himself_o to_o manage_v affair_n as_o authorize_v by_o the_o great_a person_n in_o the_o kingdom_n yet_o without_o the_o least_o shadow_n of_o proof_n that_o he_o be_v by_o they_o impower_v to_o do_v it_o my_o lord_n you_o shall_v find_v mr._n coleman_n think_v himself_o above_o all_o and_o such_o be_v his_o own_o overween_a opinion_n of_o his_o wit_n and_o policy_n that_o he_o think_v himself_o the_o sole_a and_o supreme_a director_n of_o all_o the_o affair_n of_o the_o catholic_n you_o will_v likewise_o perceive_v that_o he_o hold_v intelligence_n with_o cardinal_n norfolk_n with_o father_n sheldon_n and_o the_o pope_n internuntio_fw-la at_o brussels_n and_o i_o can_v but_o observe_v out_o of_o the_o proof_n that_o as_o we_o shall_v find_v mr._n coleman_n very_o ambitious_a and_o forward_a in_o all_o great_a affair_n so_o he_o have_v a_o little_a too_o much_o eye_n to_o the_o reward_n he_o look_v too_o much_o asquint_o upon_o the_o matter_n of_o money_n his_o great_a endeavour_n be_v not_o so_o much_o out_o of_o conscience_n or_o out_o of_o zeal_n to_o his_o religion_n as_o out_o of_o temporal_a interest_n to_o he_o gain_n be_v instead_o of_o godliness_n and_o by_o his_o letter_n to_o the_o french_a confessor_n mounseur_fw-fr le_fw-fr cheese_n it_o will_v be_v prove_v that_o he_o get_v much_o money_n from_o the_o catholic_n here_o and_o some_o from_o abroad_o but_o still_o he_o want_v money_n what_o to_o do_v i_o do_v not_o mean_v the_o great_a sum_n of_o two_o hundred_o thousand_o pound_n to_o procure_v the_o dissolution_n of_o the_o parliament_n but_o some_o twenty_o thousand_o pound_n only_o to_o be_v expend_v by_o he_o in_o secret_a service_n i_o do_v not_o know_v what_o account_n he_o will_v have_v give_v of_o it_o if_o he_o have_v be_v entrust_v with_o it_o but_o that_o he_o earnest_o thirst_v after_o money_n appear_v by_o most_o of_o his_o letter_n my_o lord_n you_o will_v observe_v beside_o his_o intelligence_n that_o he_o have_v with_o father_n le_fw-fr cheese_n and_o several_a other_o one_o that_o deserve_v to_o be_v name_v and_o that_o be_v his_o negotiation_n with_o sir_n william_n frogmorton_n who_o be_v send_v over_o into_o france_n and_o there_o reside_v a_o long_a time_n to_o promote_v these_o design_n he_o be_v dead_a therefore_o i_o will_v not_o say_v so_o much_o of_o he_o as_o i_o will_v say_v against_o he_o if_o he_o be_v here_o to_o be_v try_v but_o my_o lord_n i_o find_v in_o his_o letter_n such_o treasonable_a such_o impious_a expression_n against_o the_o king_n such_o undutiful_a character_n of_o he_o that_o no_o good_a subject_n will_v write_v and_o no_o good_a subject_n will_v receive_v and_o conceal_v as_o mr._n coleman_n have_v do_v my_o lord_n it_o may_v pass_v for_o a_o wonder_n how_o we_o come_v to_o be_v master_n of_o all_o these_o paper_n it_o have_v in_o part_n be_v tell_v you_o already_o there_o be_v a_o information_n give_v of_o the_o general_a design_n nay_o of_o some_o of_o the_o particular_n against_o the_o king_n life_n and_o without_o all_o peradventure_o mr._n coleman_n know_v of_o this_o discovery_n and_o he_o know_v that_o he_o have_v paper_n that_o can_v speak_v too_o much_o and_o he_o have_v time_n and_o opportunity_n enough_o to_o have_v make_v they_o away_o and_o i_o make_v no_o question_n but_o he_o do_v make_v many_o away_o we_o be_v not_o able_a to_o prove_v the_o continuance_n of_o his_o correspondence_n so_o as_o to_o make_v it_o clear_o out_o but_o we_o suppose_v that_o continue_v until_o the_o day_n he_o be_v seize_v and_o there_o be_v this_o to_o be_v prove_v that_o letter_n come_v for_o he_o though_o we_o can_v say_v any_o be_v deliver_v to_o he_o after_o he_o be_v in_o prison_n but_o without_o all_o peradventure_o the_o man_n have_v too_o much_o to_o do_v too_o many_o paper_n to_o conceal_v then_o you_o will_v say_v he_o may_v have_v burn_v they_o all_o for_o many_o will_v burn_v as_o well_o as_o a_o few_o but_o than_o he_o have_v lose_v much_o of_o the_o honour_n of_o a_o great_a statesman_n many_o a_o fine_a sentence_n and_o many_o a_o deep_a intrigue_n have_v be_v lose_v to_o all_o posterity_n i_o believe_v that_o we_o owe_v this_o discovery_n to_o something_o of_o mr._n coleman_n vanity_n he_o will_v not_o lose_v the_o glory_n of_o manage_v these_o important_a negotiation_n about_o so_o great_a a_o design_n he_o think_v it_o be_v no_o small_a

and_o strength_n of_o memory_n which_o he_o have_v upon_o other_o occasion_n my_o lord_n i_o shall_v no_o long_o detain_v you_o from_o read_v the_o paper_n themselves_o but_o i_o can_v but_o account_v this_o kingdom_n happy_a that_o these_o paper_n be_v preserve_v for_o my_o lord_n we_o be_v to_o deal_v with_o a_o sort_n of_o man_n that_o have_v that_o prodigious_a confidence_n that_o their_o word_n and_o deed_n though_o prove_v by_o never_o so_o unsuspected_a testimony_n they_o will_v still_o deny_v but_o my_o lord_n no_o denial_n of_o this_o plot_n will_v prevail_v for_o mr._n coleman_n himself_o have_v with_o his_o own_o hand_n record_v this_o conspiracy_n and_o we_o can_v prove_v his_o hand_n not_o only_o by_o his_o own_o servant_n and_o relation_n but_o by_o his_o own_o
