shall_v wave_v it_o but_o only_o i_o must_v tell_v you_o that_o this_o many_o a_o day_n all_o thing_n have_v be_v take_v away_o from_o i_o but_o that_o that_o i_o call_v dear_a to_o i_o than_o my_o

certain_o i_o shall_v have_v make_v a_o particular_a defence_n for_o my_o life_n for_o by_o that_o at_o least_o wise_a i_o may_v have_v delay_v a_o ugly_a sentence_n which_o i_o believe_v will_v pass_v upon_o i_o therefore_o certain_o sir_n as_o a_o man_n that_o have_v some_o understanding_n some_o knowledge_n of_o the_o world_n if_o that_o true_a zeal_n to_o my_o country_n have_v not_o

hasty_a sentence_n once_o pass_v may_v soon_o be_v repent_v of_o than_o recall_v and_o true_o the_o self_n same_o desire_n that_o i_o have_v for_o the_o peace_n of_o the_o kingdom_n and_o the_o liberty_n of_o the_o subject_a more_o than_o my_o own_o particular_a end_n make_v i_o now_o at_o last_o desire_n that_o i_o may_v say_v something_o that_o concern_v both_o i_o desire_v that_o before_o sentence_n be_v give_v that_o i_o may_v be_v hear_v in_o the_o print_a chamber_n before_o the_o lord_n and_o commons_o this_o delay_n can_v be_v prejudicial_a to_o you_o whatsoever_o i_o say_v if_o that_o i_o say_v be_v no_o reason_n those_o that_o hear_v must_v be_v judge_n i_o can_v be_v judge_n of_o that_o which_o i_o have_v to_o say_v if_o it_o be_v reason_n and_o real_o for_o the_o welfare_n of_o the_o kingdom_n and_o the_o liberty_n of_o the_o subject_a i_o be_o sure_a it_o be_v very_o well_o worth_a the_o hear_n therefore_o i_o do_v conjure_v you_o as_o you_o love_v that_o which_o you_o pretend_v i_o hope_v it_o be_v real_a the_o liberty_n of_o the_o subject_a and_o peace_n of_o the_o kingdom_n that_o you_o will_v grant_v i_o this_o hear_n before_o any_o sentence_n

bradshaw_n say_v this_o be_v decline_v the_o jurisdiction_n of_o the_o court_n and_o delay_n yet_o the_o court_n withdraw_v for_o half_a a_o hour_n advise_v upon_o it_o and_o sit_v again_o bradshaw_n say_v to_o the_o king_n that_o the_o court_n have_v consider_v what_o he_o have_v move_v and_o also_o their_o own_o authority_n the_o return_n from_o the_o court_n say_v he_o be_v this_o that_o they_o have_v be_v too_o much_o delay_v by_o you_o already_o and_o be_v judge_n appoint_v by_o the_o high_a authority_n and_o judge_n be_v no_o more_o delay_n than_o to_o deny_v justice_n and_o notwithstanding_o what_o you_o have_v offer_v they_o be_v resolve_v to_o proceed_v to_o sentence_n and_o to_o judgement_n that_o be_v their_o unanimous_a resolution_n the_o king_n press_v again_o and_o again_o that_o he_o may_v be_v hear_v by_o the_o lord_n and_o commons_o in_o the_o paint_a chamber_n with_o great_a earnestness_n and_o be_v often_o deny_v by_o bradshaw_n at_o last_o the_o king_n desire_v that_o this_o motion_n of_o he_o may_v be_v enter_v bradshaw_n begin_v in_o a_o long_a speech_n to_o declare_v the_o ground_n of_o the_o sentence_n high_o aggravate_v the_o king_n s_o

up_o in_o parchment_n to_o this_o effect_n that_o whereas_o the_o commons_o of_o england_n have_v appoint_v they_o a_o high-court_n of_o justice_n for_o the_o trial_n of_o charles_n stewart_n king_n of_o england_n before_o who_o he_o have_v be_v three_o time_n convene_v and_o at_o the_o first_o time_n a_o charge_n of_o high_a treason_n and_o other_o high_a crime_n and_o misdemeanour_n be_v read_v

that_o a_o unjust_a sentence_n that_o i_o suffer_v to_o take_v effect_n be_v punish_v by_o a_o unjust_a sentence_n upon_o i_o so_o far_o i_o have_v say_v to_o show_v you_o that_o i_o be_o a_o

have_v forgive_v all_o the_o world_n and_o even_o those_o in_o particular_a that_o have_v be_v the_o cause_n of_o death_n who_o they_o be_v god_n know_v i_o do_v not_o desire_v to_o know_v i_o pray_v god_n forgive_v they_o but_o this_o not_o all_o my_o charity_n must_v go_v far_o i_o wish_v that_o they_o may_v repent_v indeed_o they_o have_v commit_v a_o great_a sin_n in_o that_o particular_a i_o pray_v god_n with_o st._n stephen_n that_o be_v not_o lay_v to_o their_o charge_n and_o withal_o that_o they_o may_v take_v the_o way_n to_o the_o peace_n of_o the_o kingdom_n for_o my_o charity_n command_v i_o not_o only_o to_o forgive_v particular_a man_n but_o endeavour_n to_o the_o last_o gasp_n the_o peace_n of_o the_o kingdom_n so_o sir_n i_o do_v with_o all_o my_o soul_n i_o see_v there_o be_v some_o here_o that_o will_v carry_v it_o far_o the_o peace_n of_o the_o kingdom_n sir_n i_o must_v show_v you_o how_o you_o be_v out_o of_o the_o way_n and_o put_v you_o in_o the_o way_n first_o you_o be_v out_o of_o the_o way_n for_o certay_o all_o the_o way_n you_o ever_o have_v yet_o as_o far_o as_o ever_o i_o can_v find_v by_o any_o thing_n if_o in_o the_o way_n of_o conquest_n certain_o this_o be_v a_o ill_a way_n for_o conquest_n in_o my_o opinion_n be_v never_o just_a except_o there_o be_v a_o good_a and_o just_a cause_n either_o for_o matter_n of_o wrong_n or_o a_o just_a title_n and_o then_o if_o you_o go_v beyond_o the_o first_o quarrel_n that_o make_v that_o unjust_a at_o the_o end_n that_o be_v just_o at_o first_o for_o if_o there_o be_v only_a matter_n of_o conquest_n than_o it_o be_v a_o robbery_n as_o a_o pirate_n say_v to_o alexander_n that_o he_o be_v a_o great_a robber_n himself_o be_v but_o a_o petty_a robber_n and_o so_o sir_n i_o think_v for_o the_o way_n that_o you_o be_v in_o you_o be_v much_o out_o of_o the_o way_n now_o sir_n to_o put_v put_v you_o in_o the_o way_n believe_v it_o you_o shall_v never_o go_v right_a nor_o god_n will_v never_o prosper_v you_o until_o you_o give_v god_n his_o due_a the_o king_n his_o due_a that_o be_v my_o successor_n and_o the_o people_n their_o due_a i_o be_o as_o much_o for_o they_o as_o any_o of_o you_o you_o must_v give_v god_n his_o due_a by_o regulate_v the_o church_n according_a to_o the_o scripture_n which_o be_v now_o out_o of_o order_n and_o to_o set_v you_o in_o a_o way_n particular_o now_o i_o can_v but_o only_o this_o a_o national_a synod_n free_o call_v free_o debate_v among_o themselves_o must_v settle_v this_o when_o every_o opinion_n be_v free_o hear_v for_o the_o king_n indeed_o i_o will_v not_o the_o law_n of_o the_o land_n will_v clear_o instruct_v you_o for_o that_o therefore_o because_o it_o concern_v my_o own_o particular_a i_o only_o give_v you_o a_o touch_n of_o it_o for_o the_o people_n true_o i_o desire_v their_o liberty_n and_o freedom_n as_o much_o as_o any_o body_n whosoever_o but_o i_o must_v tell_v you_o that_o their_o liberty_n and_o freedom_n consist_v in_o have_v government_n under_o those_o law_n by_o which_o their_o life_n and_o they_o may_v be_v most_o their_o own_o it_o be_v not_o in_o have_v a_o share_n in_o the_o government_n that_o be_v nothing_o appertain_v to_o they_o a_o subject_a and_o a_o sovereign_n be_v clear_a differ_v thing_n and_o therefore_o until_o you_o do_v that_o i_o mean_v that_o you_o put_v the_o people_n into_o that_o liberty_n as_o i_o say_v they_o will_v never_o enjoy_v themselves_o sir_n it_o be_v for_o this_o that_o now_o i_o be_o come_v hither_o for_o if_o i_o will_v have_v give_v way_n to_o a_o arbitrary_a course_n to_o have_v all_o law_n change_v according_a to_o the_o power_n of_o the_o sword_n i_o need_v not_o to_o have_v come_v here_o and_o therefore_o i_o tell_v you_o and_o i_o pray_v to_o god_n it_o be_v not_o lay_v to_o your_o charge_n that_o i_o be_o the_o martyr_n of_o the_o people_n in_o troth_n sir_n i_o shall_v not_o hold_v you_o any_o long_o i_o will_v only_o say_v this_o to_o you_o that_o i_o can_v have_v desire_v some_o little_a time_n long_o because_o i_o will_v have_v a_o little_a better_o digest_v this_o i_o have_v say_v and_o therefore_o i_o hope_v you_o will_v excuse_v i_o i_o have_v deliver_v my_o conscience_n i_o pray_v god_n you_o take_v take_v course_n that_o be_v the_o best_a for_o the_o good_a of_o the_o kingdom_n and_o your_o
