A65566	The honesty and true zeal of the Kings witnesses justified and vindicated against those unchristian-like equivocal protestations of Dr. Oliver Plunkett, asserting in his last speech his own innocency being as great damnation to his soul, as any of his former trayterous and hellish practices against his King and countrey, as breathing them upon the point of death, without any time of repenting the enormity of them with true contrition / by Florence Weyer, Gent.

ruinate_a church_n where_o the_o say_v brian_n murphy_n take_v occasion_n to_o tell_v plunket_n that_o certain_a old_a people_n native_n of_o that_o place_n can_v prove_v that_o in_o their_o nonage_n

the_o testimony_n of_o the_o rest_n of_o the_o company_n to_o be_v of_o sufficiency_n to_o prove_v that_o duffy_n be_v in_o his_o company_n and_o have_v not_o swear_v false_a as_o plunket_n in_o his_o

other_o to_o view_v they_o and_o deny_v he_o so_o do_v i_o will_v have_v the_o reader_n understand_v this_o to_o be_v his_o evasion_n that_o there_o be_v hardly_o ever_o a_o city_n fort_n or_o town_n

monaghan_n or_o cavan_n which_o negative_a will_v extend_v to_o a_o admiration_n of_o the_o truth_n be_v as_o well_o know_v here_o as_o in_o ireland_n whereas_o he_o keep_v his_o provincial_a

further_n protest_v that_o he_o never_o know_v or_o hear_v that_o the_o french_a be_v to_o land_n at_o carlingford_n and_o that_o he_o do_v believe_v there_o be_v none_o who_o ever_o see_v ireland_n
