evil_a if_o there_o be_v any_o sharpness_n of_o expression_n i_o attribute_v it_o to_o their_o zeal_n against_o my_o crime_n and_o not_o to_o any_o prejudice_n against_o my_o person_n the_o day_n after_o my_o sentence_n there_o come_v to_o visit_v the_o prisoner_n one_o mr._n smith_n the_o ordinary_a of_o newgate_n he_o be_v please_v to_o tell_v i_o but_o in_o private_a that_o he_o observe_v i_o at_o my_o trial_n gaze_v about_o the_o court_n and_o the_o gallery_n where_o sit_v several_a gentlewoman_n i_o confess_v i_o be_v former_o too_o apt_a to_o delight_v in_o such_o sight_n and_o let_v in_o abundance_n of_o sin_n at_o those_o window_n of_o my_o soul_n but_o at_o that_o time_n i_o have_v other_o thought_n and_o apprehension_n the_o cause_n of_o that_o diversion_n be_v to_o spy_v out_o some_o witness_n i_o think_v material_a which_o though_o they_o be_v in_o court_n i_o can_v not_o find_v and_o so_o lose_v their_o evidence_n this_o it_o be_v very_o probable_a may_v have_v be_v the_o observation_n of_o other_o as_o well_o as_o mr._n smith_n therefore_o i_o insert_v this_o just_a apology_n my_o partner_n in_o the_o gild_n and_o trial_n though_o not_o in_o the_o condemnation_n be_v please_v to_o load_v i_o with_o several_a calumny_n i_o will_v only_o note_v those_o that_o the_o court_n insist_v on_o and_o i_o hear_v be_v yet_o discourse_v to_o my_o prejudice_n in_o the_o city_n first_o it_o be_v allege_v that_o she_o be_v commit_v to_o my_o charge_n and_o government_n by_o her_o father_n in_o her_o minority_n and_o childhood_n this_o report_n be_v so_o general_o spread_v and_o indeed_o sound_v so_o ill_a that_o several_a since_o my_o trial_n have_v discourse_v it_o as_o a_o great_a aggravation_n to_o commit_v so_o foul_a a_o thing_n against_o so_o great_a a_o trust_n and_o some_o have_v repair_v to_o i_o for_o satisfaction_n to_o who_o i_o then_o give_v as_o i_o do_v now_o the_o world_n this_o account_n that_o her_o father_n be_v a_o gentleman_n who_o i_o never_o see_v or_o have_v the_o least_o intercourse_n with_o there_o be_v two_o more_o accusation_n which_o i_o will_v not_o so_o much_o as_o name_n but_o that_o i_o find_v they_o the_o only_a ingredient_n that_o imbitter_v my_o cup_n both_o at_o my_o trial_n and_o at_o my_o sentence_n the_o one_o be_v that_o i_o shall_v attempt_v and_o endeavour_v to_o vitiate_v she_o at_o nine_o year_n old_a the_o other_o that_o i_o have_v for_o that_o purpose_n corrupt_v her_o judgement_n and_o misinform_v her_o conscience_n to_o believe_v polygamy_n lawful_a impeachment_n high_o criminal_a against_o the_o law_n of_o god_n and_o as_o i_o be_o tell_v capital_a against_o the_o law_n of_o man_n i_o confess_v i_o have_v sin_n that_o exceed_v they_o yet_o i_o never_o be_v guilty_a of_o either_o of_o these_o and_o in_o the_o midst_n of_o abundance_n of_o gild_n i_o find_v a_o little_a comfort_n in_o this_o that_o i_o never_o prostitute_v the_o word_n or_o any_o ordinance_n of_o god_n to_o serve_v the_o turn_n of_o lust_n there_o be_v some_o offence_n take_v as_o i_o hear_v at_o my_o charge_v she_o with_o what_o she_o deny_v at_o our_o trial_n she_o do_v indeed_o say_v that_o she_o know_v nothing_o of_o the_o fact_n for_o which_o we_o be_v question_v which_o she_o demonstrate_v by_o argument_n that_o can_v not_o modest_o be_v speak_v in_o that_o place_n without_o such_o unsavoury_a and_o noisome_a demonstration_n i_o affirm_v upon_o the_o word_n of_o a_o die_a man_n that_o both_o her_o eye_n do_v see_v and_o her_o hand_n do_v act_n in_o all_o that_o be_v do_v i_o be_o dead_a in_o law_n and_o i_o know_v my_o say_n be_v no_o evidence_n against_o she_o but_o the_o next_o time_n we_o meet_v at_o the_o bar_n which_o we_o shall_v infallible_o do_v and_o two_o thousand_o witness_n shall_v be_v produce_v against_o we_o that_o be_v her_o conscience_n and_o i_o these_o thing_n will_v be_v find_v to_o be_v true_a and_o as_o such_o i_o assert_v they_o as_o i_o shall_v sudden_o answer_v it_o before_o the_o all-seeing_a and_o heart-searching_a god_n thus_o i_o have_v satisfy_v the_o desire_n of_o some_o of_o my_o friend_n do_v myself_o right_o without_o do_v she_o or_o any_o person_n in_o the_o world_n wrong_v as_o to_o the_o world_n after_o excuse_v myself_o of_o thing_n with_o which_o i_o be_o unjust_o charge_v i_o shall_v charge_v myself_o with_o one_o thing_n which_o every_o one_o do_v not_o consider_v it_o be_v indeed_o a_o great_a aggravation_n of_o my_o sin_n against_o that_o poor_a infant_n that_o i_o who_o concern_v it_o be_v to_o provide_v for_o its_o safety_n in_o all_o respect_n shall_v in_o all_o deprive_v it_o as_o far_o as_o in_o i_o lay_v for_o by_o that_o barbarous_a act_n upon_o its_o body_n i_o have_v do_v what_o in_o i_o lay_v to_o murder_n its_o soul_n by_o deprive_v it_o of_o the_o ordinary_a mean_n which_o god_n have_v ordain_v for_o its_o salvation_n the_o sacrament_n of_o baptism_n though_o i_o be_o not_o of_o his_o
