to_o persuade_v such_o as_o will_v be_v deceive_v that_o the_o confession_n he_o make_v about_o the_o popish_a plot_n and_o godfrey_n murder_n be_v altogether_o false_a and_o sorce_v from_o he_o by_o the_o sheriff_n i_o say_v the_o paper_n find_v myself_o in_o newgate_n fetter_v moneyless_a friendless_a and_o i_o can_v see_v no_o other_o refuge_n for_o life_n but_o comply_v with_o they_o i.e._n the_o sheriff_n so_o to_o save_v my_o life_n i_o do_v comply_v this_o look_v something_o like_o the_o practice_n of_o that_o infamous_a popish_a midwife_n mrs._n cely_o who_o attempt_v to_o cozen_v the_o world_n into_o a_o belief_n that_o the_o protestant_n upon_o false_a accusation_n cast_v some_o innocent_a papist_n into_o newgate_n and_o there_o torment_v they_o in_o iron_n and_o otherwise_o to_o extort_v false_a confession_n from_o they_o of_o a_o popish_a plot._n but_o the_o truth_n will_v be_v attest_v by_o many_o witness_n that_o fitz-harris_n be_v never_o fetter_v or_o put_v into_o iron_n or_o harsh_o use_v whilst_o in_o the_o sheriff_n custody_n but_o on_o the_o contrary_a treat_v with_o all_o the_o civility_n his_o case_n will_v permit_v and_o so_o he_o declare_v at_o the_o gallow_n and_o thank_v the_o sheriff_n even_o with_o his_o die_a breath_n when_o he_o ought_v to_o have_v express_v just_a indignation_n against_o they_o and_o a_o die_a repent_a sinner_n can_v not_o have_v forbear_v it_o if_o he_o have_v think_v as_o this_o shame_n confession_n say_v that_o they_o have_v force_v or_o persuade_v he_o to_o defile_v his_o conscience_n with_o so_o many_o perjury_n

to_o examine_v he_o nor_o have_v it_o in_o their_o power_n to_o reward_v or_o punish_v he_o whatsoever_o this_o mock_n confession_n say_v fitz-harris_n can_v not_o think_v the_o sheriff_n a_o refuge_n to_o save_v his_o life_n who_o he_o know_v not_o to_o have_v power_n to_o save_v a_o hair_n of_o his_o head_n there_o be_v another_o invention_n in_o this_o shame_n confession_n as_o false_a and_o
