the_o other_o to_o the_o person_n of_o the_o king_n that_o relate_v to_o the_o person_n of_o the_o king_n make_v the_o conspire_v imagine_v and_o compass_v his_o death_n criminal_a that_o concern_v

for_o to_o say_v that_o a_o man_n do_v meet_v to_o conspire_v the_o king_n death_n and_o he_o that_o give_v you_o the_o account_n of_o the_o business_n do_v not_o speak_v one_o word_n of_o it_o seem_v

like_a a_o conspiracy_n to_o take_v away_o a_o woman_n to_o kill_v or_o rob_v be_v all_o direct_v to_o that_o end_n so_o conspire_v to_o kill_v the_o king_n must_v immediate_o aim_v at_o kill_v the_o king_n the_o king_n have_v two_o capacity_n natural_a and_o politic_a that_o which_o be_v the_o politic_a can_v be_v within_o the_o statute_n in_o that_o sense_n he_o never_o die_v and_o it_o be_v absurd_a to_o say_v it_o shall_v be_v a_o fault_n to_o kill_v the_o king_n that_o can_v die_v so_o than_o it_o must_v be_v the_o natural_a sense_n it_o must_v be_v understand_v in_o which_o must_v be_v do_v by_o sword_n by_o pistol_n or_o any_o other_o way_n now_o if_o there_o be_v not_o one_o word_n of_o this_o then_o that_o be_v utter_o at_o a_o end_n though_o the_o witness_n have_v be_v good_a the_o next_o point_n be_v concern_v levy_v of_o war._n levy_v of_o war_n be_v make_v treason_n there_o so_o it_o be_v prove_v by_o overt_a act_n but_o a_o overt_a act_n of_o that_o never_o be_v or_o can_v be_v pretend_v here_o if_o the_o war_n be_v not_o levy_v it_o be_v not_o within_o the_o act_n for_o conspire_v to_o levy_v war_n be_v not_o in_o the_o act._n my_o lord_n there_o be_v no_o man_n that_o think_v that_o i_o will_v kill_v the_o king_n that_o know_v i_o i_o be_o not_o a_o man_n to_o have_v such_o a_o design_n perhaps_o i_o may_v say_v i_o have_v save_v his_o life_n once_o so_o that_o it_o must_v be_v by_o implication_n that_o be_v it_o be_v first_o imagine_v that_o i_o intend_v to_o raise_v a_o war_n and_o then_o it_o be_v imagine_v that_o war_n shall_v tend_v to_o the_o destruction_n of_o the_o king_n now_o i_o know_v that_o may_v follow_v but_o that_o be_v not_o natural_a or_o necessary_a and_o be_v not_o natural_a or_o necessary_a it_o can_v be_v so_o understand_v by_o the_o law_n that_o it_o be_v not_o it_o plain_a for_o many_o war_n have_v be_v make_v and_o the_o death_n of_o the_o king_n have_v not_o follow_v david_n make_v war_n upon_o saul_n yet_o no_o body_n will_v say_v he_o seek_v his_o death_n he_o have_v he_o under_o his_o power_n and_o do_v not_o kill_v he_o david_n make_v war_n upon_o ishbosheth_n yet_o do_v not_o design_n his_o

so_o that_o it_o be_v two_o distinct_a thing_n to_o make_v war_n and_o to_o endeavour_v to_o kill_v the_o king_n now_o as_o there_o be_v no_o manner_n of_o pretence_n that_o i_o shall_v endeavour_v to_o kill_v the_o king_n direct_o so_o it_o can_v be_v by_o inference_n because_o it_o be_v treason_n under_o another_o species_n i_o confess_v i_o be_o not_o fit_a to_o argue_v these_o point_n i_o think_v i_o ought_v to_o have_v counsel_n but_o if_o you_o will_v allow_v it_o i_o i_o can_v help_v it_o but_o these_o thing_n be_v impossible_a to_o be_v jumble_v up_o together_o now_o

he_o to_o make_v a_o address_n to_o the_o king_n this_o gentleman_n i_o repeat_v not_o that_o it_o be_v material_a but_o for_o no_o other_o reason_n than_o because_o colonel_n sidney_n have_v produce_v it_o and_o so_o we_o be_v to_o think_v he_o intend_v to_o make_v some_o use_n of_o it_o but_o i_o can_v see_v any_o inference_n to_o be_v draw_v from_o it_o there_o be_v one_o witness_n more_o and_o that_o be_v mr._n blake_n to_o the_o credit_n of_o my_o lord_n howard_n who_o come_v here_o and_o say_v that_o when_o he_o discourse_v about_o a_o pardon_n my_o lord_n shall_v say_v that_o he_o have_v a_o warrant_n for_o his_o pardon_n but_o that_o he_o have_v not_o yet_o pass_v it_o and_o can_v not_o yet_o and_o he_o apprehend_v the_o reason_n be_v because_o the_o drudgery_n of_o swear_v be_v not_o over_o but_o this_o be_v but_o what_o my_o lord_n howard_n have_v conjecture_v first_o it_o do_v not_o appear_v that_o there_o be_v any_o promise_n of_o pardon_n at_o all_o to_o my_o lord_n howard_n on_o any_o term_n impose_v on_o he_o in_o the_o next_o place_n whatever_o expectation_n he_o have_v of_o a_o pardon_n he_o can_v reasonable_o hope_v for_o it_o without_o make_v a_o clear_a discovery_n of_o all_o he_o know_v for_o to_o stifle_v his_o evidence_n he_o have_v give_v be_v not_o a_o way_n to_o deserve_v a_o pardon_n of_o his_o prince_n therefore_o gentleman_n whatever_o expression_n be_v use_v though_o he_o call_v it_o the_o drudgery_n of_o swear_v however_o unwilling_a he_o be_v to_o come_v to_o it_o and_o though_o he_o give_v it_o very_o many_o hard_a name_n and_o may_v think_v it_o very_o harsh_a to_o come_v and_o own_v himself_o to_o be_v one_o of_o the_o conspirator_n it_o may_v be_v irksome_a and_o very_o irksome_a yet_o none_o of_o they_o tell_v you_o that_o my_o lord_n howard_n shall_v say_v that_o what_o he_o have_v say_v be_v not_o true_a now_o he_o have_v come_v and_o give_v his_o evidence_n and_o you_o have_v hear_v all_o these_o objection_n against_o it_o and_o not_o one_o of_o they_o touch_v it_o in_o the_o least_o i_o come_v in_o the_o next_o place_n to_o the_o other_o part_n of_o the_o evidence_n the_o paper_n find_v in_o colonel_n sidney_n house_n and_o in_o the_o first_o place_n he_o object_n they_o can_v affect_v he_o for_o say_v he_o there_o be_v no_o proof_n they_o be_v find_v in_o my_o house_n no_o proof_n they_o be_v write_v by_o i_o for_o comparison_n of_o hand_n that_o be_v nothing_o and_o if_o they_o be_v prove_v to_o be_v i_o it_o be_v nothing_o at_o all_o to_o the_o purpose_n they_o be_v a_o answer_n to_o a_o polemical_a discourse_n wherewith_o he_o entertain_v himself_o private_o in_o his_o study_n why_o you_o have_v observe_v i_o know_v that_o sir_n philip_n lloyd_n in_o the_o

of_o the_o prisoner_n at_o the_o bar_n that_o they_o may_v besay_v there_o it_o be_v so_o foreign_a and_o without_o ground_n that_o by_o and_o by_o you_o will_v think_v there_o be_v nothing_o at_o all_o in_o it_o in_o the_o next_o place_n we_o prove_v colonel_n sidney_n hand_n and_o that_o by_o as_o much_o proof_n as_o the_o thing_n be_v capable_a of_o such_o a_o proof_n as_o in_o all_o case_n

this_o to_o be_v his_o hand_n you_o have_v hear_v from_o mr._n sheppard_n a_o man_n that_o use_v to_o transact_v business_n for_o he_o pay_v money_n for_o he_o and_o mr._n cook_n and_o mr._n cary_n

and_o imagine_v the_o death_n of_o the_o king_n compass_v and_o imagine_v the_o death_n of_o the_o king_n be_v the_o act_n of_o the_o mind_n and_o be_v treason_n whilst_o it_o remain_v secret_a in_o

have_v be_v read_v to_o you_o a_o continue_a thread_n of_o argument_n it_o be_v not_o one_o proposition_n but_o a_o whole_a series_n of_o argument_n these_o be_v the_o position_n that_o the_o king_n derive_v all_o his_o power_n from_o the_o people_n that_o it_o be_v original_o in_o the_o people_n and_o that_o the_o measure_n of_o subjection_n must_v be_v adjudge_v by_o the_o parliament_n and_o if_o the_o king_n do_v fall_v from_o do_v his_o duty_n he_o must_v expect_v the_o people_n will_v exact_v it_o and_o this_o he_o have_v lay_v down_o as_o no_o way_n prejudicial_a to_o he_o for_o say_v he_o the_o king_n may_v refuse_v the_o crown_n if_o he_o do_v not_o like_o it_o upon_o these_o term_n but_o say_v he_o if_o he_o do_v accept_v it_o he_o must_v expect_v the_o performance_n will_v be_v exact_v or_o revenge_v take_v by_o those_o he_o have_v botray_v then_o next_o he_o set_v up_o a_o objection_n and_o then_o argue_v against_o it_o ay_o but_o shall_v the_o people_n be_v judge_n in_o their_o own_o cause_n and_o thus_o he_o answer_v it_o it_o must_v be_v so_o for_o be_v not_o the_o king_n a_o judge_n in_o his_o own_o cause_n how_o can_v any_o man_n else_o be_v try_v or_o convict_v of_o any_o offence_n if_o the_o king_n may_v not_o be_v judge_n in_o his_o own_o cause_n for_o to_o judge_n by_o a_o man_n self_n or_o by_o his_o deputy_n be_v the_o same_o thing_n and_o so_o a_o

after_o this_o sort_n of_o argument_n he_o come_v to_o this_o settle_a position_n we_o may_v therefore_o say_v he_o change_n or_o take_v away_o king_n without_o break_v any_o yoke_n or_o that_o be_v
