to_o observe_v my_o own_o word_n and_o remember_v they_o because_o i_o see_v some_o lord_n at_o the_o table_n touch_v with_o they_o perhaps_o in_o their_o own_o particular_n nor_o be_v i_o alone_o in_o this_o judgement_n for_o my_o lord_n the_o earl_n of_o holland_n though_o he_o then_o say_v nothing_o at_o the_o council-table_n yet_o at_o his_o first_o return_n from_o barwick_n his_o

that_o by_o a_o committee_n name_v by_o the_o lord_n not_o by_o i_o and_o i_o think_v it_o be_v very_o real_a for_o it_o cost_v eight_o or_o nine_o thousand_o pound_n as_o appear_v upon_o the_o

i_o i_o humble_o beseech_v you_o to_o mark_v this_o yet_o out_o of_o these_o premise_n put_v together_o mr._n brown_n inference_n be_v that_o i_o make_v this_o alteration_n of_o the_o oath_n but_o sure_o these_o premise_n neither_o single_a nor_o together_o can_v produce_v any_o such_o conclusion_n but_o rather_o the_o contrary_n beside_o inference_n upon_o evidence_n be_v not_o evidence_n

most_o of_o the_o ceremony_n be_v in_o the_o churchway_n and_o then_o can_v any_o man_n think_v that_o these_o great_a lord_n when_o they_o come_v to_o review_v all_o that_o be_v do_v will_v let_v

upon_o i_o thus_o there_o be_v find_v in_o my_o study_n at_o lambeth_n two_o book_n of_o king_n james_n his_o coronation_n one_o of_o they_o have_v this_o clause_n or_o addition_n in_o it_o and_o the_o other_o have_v it_o not_o and_o we_o can_v tell_v by_o which_o he_o be_v crown_v therefore_o it_o must_v needs_o be_v some_o wilful_a error_n in_o i_o to_o make_v choice_n of_o that_o book_n which_o have_v this_o addition_n in_o it_o or_o some_o great_a mistake_n first_o if_o it_o be_v a_o mistake_n only_o than_o it_o be_v no_o crime_n and_o wilful_a error_n it_o can_v not_o be_v for_o be_v name_v one_o of_o they_o that_o be_v to_o consider_v of_o the_o ceremony_n i_o go_v to_o my_o predecessor_n and_o desire_v a_o book_n to_o see_v by_o it_o what_o be_v former_o do_v he_o deliver_v i_o this_o now_o in_o question_n i_o know_v not_o whether_o he_o have_v more_o or_o no_o nor_o do_v i_o know_v that_o any_o one_o of_o they_o differ_v from_o other_o therefore_o no_o wilful_a error_n for_o i_o have_v no_o choice_n to_o make_v of_o this_o book_n which_o have_v the_o addition_n before_o that_o which_o have_v it_o not_o but_o thankful_o take_v that_o which_o he_o give_v i_o but_o second_o if_o one_o book_n of_o king_n james_n his_o coronation_n in_o which_o i_o can_v have_v no_o hand_n have_v this_o addition_n in_o it_o as_o be_v confess_v then_o be_v not_o this_o a_o new_a addition_n of_o my_o make_n and_o three_o it_o may_v easy_o be_v see_v that_o king_n james_n be_v crown_v by_o the_o book_n which_o have_v this_o addition_n in_o it_o this_o be_v in_o a_o fair_a

place_n he_o say_v there_o be_v in_o this_o book_n twenty_o alteration_n more_o and_o all_o or_o most_o in_o my_o hand_n be_v it_o so_o for_o i_o be_v never_o suffer_v to_o have_v the_o book_n to_o consider_v of_o they_o be_v confess_v not_o to_o be_v material_a the_o truth_n be_v when_o we_o meet_v in_o the_o committee_n we_o be_v fain_o to_o mend_v many_o slip_n of_o the_o pen_n to_o make_v sense_n in_o some_o place_n and_o good_a english_a in_o other_o and_o the_o book_n be_v trust_v with_o i_o i_o have_v reason_n to_o do_v it_o with_o my_o own_o hand_n but_o open_o at_o the_o committee_n all_o yet_o two_o thing_n as_o matter_n of_o some_o moment_n mr._n brown_a check_v at_o 1._o the_o one_o be_v that_o confirm_v be_v change_v into_o perform_v if_o it_o be_v so_o perform_v be_v the_o great_a and_o more_o advantageous_a to_o the_o subject_a because_o it_o include_v execution_n which_o the_o other_o word_n do_v not_o nor_o do_v this_o word_n hinder_v but_o that_o the_o law_n and_o liberty_n be_v the_o people_n already_o for_o though_o they_o be_v their_o own_o yet_o the_o king_n by_o his_o place_n may_v and_o aught_o to_o perform_v the_o keep_n and_o maintain_v of_o they_o i_o say_v if_o it_o be_v so_o for_o i_o be_v never_o suffer_v to_o have_v this_o book_n in_o my_o hand_n thorough_o to_o peruse_v nor_o under_o favour_n do_v i_o believe_v this_o alteration_n be_v so_o make_v as_o it_o be_v urge_v in_o the_o book_n which_o i_o have_v by_o i_o and_o be_v transcribe_v from_o the_o other_o it_o be_v confirm_v 2._o the_o other_o be_v that_o the_o king_n be_v say_v to_o answer_n i_o will_v for_o i_o do_v but_o when_o will_v he_o why_o all_o the_o day_n of_o his_o life_n which_o be_v much_o more_o than_o i_o do_v for_o the_o present_a so_o if_o this_o change_n be_v make_v it_o be_v still_o for_o the_o people_n advantage_n and_n there_o also_o it_o be_v i_o do_v grant_v and_o yet_o again_o i_o say_v if_o for_o the_o reason_n before_o give_v beside_o in_o all_o the_o latin_a copy_n there_o be_v a_o latitude_n leave_v for_o they_o that_o be_v trust_v to_o add_v to_o those_o interrogatory_n which_o be_v then_o put_v to_o the_o king_n any_o other_o

4._o mr._n brown_n four_o and_o last_o objection_n be_v that_o i_o make_v this_o alteration_n of_o the_o oath_n because_o it_o
agree_v as_o he_o say_v with_o my_o judgement_n for_o that_o in_o a_o paper_n of_o bishop_n harsnett'_v there_o be_v a_o marginal_a note_n in_o my_o hand_n that_o salvo_n jure_fw-la coronae_fw-la be_v

into_o a_o public_a oath_n which_o i_o have_v no_o power_n to_o alter_v these_o be_v all_o the_o proof_n which_o mr._n maynard_n at_o first_o and_o mr._n brown_a at_o last_o bring_v against_o i_o in_o
