❧_o by_o the_o king_n whereas_o thomas_n percy_n gentleman_n and_o some_o other_o his_o confederate_n person_n know_v to_o be_v so_o utter_o corrupt_v with_o the_o superstition_n of_o the_o romish_a religion_n as_o seduce_v with_o the_o blindness_n thereof_o and_o be_v otherwise_o of_o lewd_a life_n insolent_a disposition_n and_o for_o the_o most_o part_n of_o desperate_a estate_n have_v be_v discover_v to_o have_v contrive_v the_o most_o horrible_a treason_n that_o ever_o enter_v into_o the_o heart_n of_o man_n against_o our_o person_n our_o child_n the_o whole_a nobility_n clergy_n and_o commons_o in_o parliament_n assemble_v which_o howsoever_o cloak_v with_o zeal_n of_o superstitious_a religion_n aim_v indeed_o at_o the_o subversion_n of_o the_o state_n and_o to_o induce_v a_o horrible_a confusion_n of_o all_o thing_n in_o which_o they_o and_o all_o other_o of_o bankrupt_a and_o necessitous_a estate_n may_v have_v those_o of_o better_a ability_n for_o a_o pray_v to_o

worcester_n where_o they_o have_v break_v up_o a_o stable_a and_o take_v out_o horse_n of_o diverse_a nobleman_n and_o gentleman_n within_o our_o town_n of_o warwick_n and_o no_o doubt_n but_o do_v proceed_v further_o in_o their_o purpose_n seek_v to_o raise_v some_o rebellion_n in_o our_o realm_n and_o will_v with_o many_o feign_a and_o false_a allegation_n seek_v to_o seduce_v diverse_a of_o

whatsoever_o of_o that_o horrible_a purpose_n of_o percy_n and_o his_o complice_n and_o to_o distinguish_v between_o all_o other_o call_v themselves_o catholic_n and_o these_o detestable_a traitor_n and_o therefore_o do_v denounce_v and_o publish_v all_o the_o person_n hereunder_o name_v adherent_n to_o percy_n to_o be_v traitor_n know_v and_o that_o all_o other_o be_v in_o the_o same_o case_n

but_o that_o they_o all_o without_o regard_n of_o their_o pretence_n of_o religion_n will_v with_o one_o heart_n and_o will_n employ_v themselves_o for_o the_o suppress_n apprehend_v detect_v and_o discover_v of_o all_o sort_n of_o person_n any_o way_n likely_a to_o be_v privy_a to_o a_o treason_n so_o hateful_a to_o god_n and_o man_n and_o imply_v in_o it_o the_o utter_a subversion_n of_o

can_v admit_v so_o inhuman_a a_o thought_n as_o to_o conceive_v that_o any_o prince_n of_o what_o religion_n soever_o can_v give_v ear_n to_o so_o savage_a and_o barbarous_a a_o imagination_n and_o that_o by_o such_o examination_n as_o hitherto_o have_v be_v take_v we_o find_v they_o all_o and_o their_o minister_n clear_a from_o any_o suspicion_n of_o privity_n thereunto_o whereof_o one_o
