thou_o lie_v this_o manner_n of_o lie_n not_o be_v give_v upon_o any_o matter_n certain_a or_o word_n special_o repeat_v be_v to_o none_o effect_v and_o therefore_o if_o he_o who_o give_v such_o a_o

not_o bind_v the_o adverse_a party_n they_o be_v also_o perilous_a and_o apt_a to_o be_v return_v i_o say_v therefore_o that_o forsomuch_o as_o a_o lie_v general_a be_v of_o small_a effect_n &_o therewith_o fit_a to_o be_v wrest_v against_o the_o giver_n thereof_o it_o ought_v of_o all_o gentleman_n to_o be_v utterlie_o refrain_v of_o lie_v special_a cap._n 8._o lie_v special_a be_v those_o which_o be_v give_v unto_o special_a person_n and_o upon_o express_v and_o particular_a matter_n as_o for_o example_n gregory_n thou_o have_v say_v that_o upon_o the_o day_n of_o battle_n at_o

wherewith_o he_o be_v charge_v then_o must_v he_o either_o maintain_v his_o speech_n or_o confess_v the_o fault_n here_o be_v to_o be_v note_v that_o in_o such_o quarrel_n wherein_o manifest_a

such_o injury_n as_o be_v offer_v and_o desire_v to_o show_v the_o cause_n of_o their_o offence_n either_o by_o word_n or_o writing_n they_o must_v so_o plain_o and_o sincere_o set_v down_o the_o

the_o lie_n be_v give_v do_v thereby_o lose_v the_o election_n of_o the_o weapon_n therefore_o ignorantlie_o and_o foolish_o they_o give_v the_o lie_n before_o they_o either_o know_v or_o ask_v the_o

lie_v this_o silly_a sort_n of_o quarrel_v may_v likewise_o be_v call_v a_o lie_n foolish_a and_o vain_a for_o he_o who_o shall_v use_v such_o word_n do_v thereby_o take_v upon_o he_o both_o to_o

every_o answer_n without_o advantage_n ought_v be_v utter_v also_o every_o injury_n offer_v in_o presence_n shall_v likewise_o in_o presence_n be_v answer_v and_o if_o in_o absence_n any_o such_o

it_o have_v be_v think_v fit_a that_o no_o lie_n or_o other_o repulse_n shall_v be_v nevertheless_o it_o seem_v reasonable_a that_o if_o it_o please_v the_o prince_n to_o know_v that_o i_o be_o in_o

whether_o to_o a_o man_n injure_a in_o presence_n of_o a_o prince_n it_o suffice_v to_o answer_v in_o presence_n of_o private_a gentleman_n cap._n 10._o have_v in_o the_o former_a chapter_n speak_v

have_v opportunity_n to_o make_v repulse_n before_o the_o prince_n so_o be_v it_o also_o fit_a to_o use_v respect_n before_o person_n of_o so_o high_a estate_n &_o calling_n as_o heretofore_o have_v
