well_o i_o do_v not_o intend_v you_o shall_v die_v at_o least_o not_o for_o the_o present_a until_o i_o know_v the_o king_n be_v further_a pleasure_n i_o be_v not_o i_o thank_v god_n for_o it_o

for_o i_o be_v then_o of_o the_o same_o mind_n as_o by_o god_n grace_n i_o ever_o shall_v be_v esteem_v they_o all_o the_o best_a friend_n to_o i_o in_o all_o they_o do_v or_o say_v that_o ever_o i_o have_v in_o my_o life_n or_o ever_o shall_v have_v except_o upon_o the_o like_a occasion_n and_o i_o be_v i_o thank_v god_n so_o present_a with_o myself_o while_o the_o judge_n pronounce_v the_o sentence_n to_o deliver_v i_o to_o death_n that_o without_o any_o concern_n for_o any_o thing_n in_o this_o world_n i_o do_v actual_o at_o the_o same_o time_n offer_v myself_o and_o the_o world_n to_o

they_o shall_v grieve_v for_o i_o or_o my_o condition_n who_o be_v joyful_a for_o it_o myself_o for_o i_o tell_v they_o i_o have_v profess_v this_o faith_n and_o religion_n all_o my_o life-time_n which_o i_o be_v as_o sure_a to_o be_v true_a as_o i_o be_v sure_a of_o the_o truth_n of_o god_n word_n on_o which_o it_o be_v ground_v and_o therefore_o in_o it_o i_o depose_v my_o soul_n and_o

i_o tell_v they_o i_o be_v as_o ready_a by_o god_n grace_n to_o die_v to_o morrow_n as_o i_o have_v be_v to_o receive_v the_o sentence_n of_o death_n to_o day_n and_o as_o willing_o as_o if_o i_o have_v a_o grant_n of_o the_o great_a dukedom_n so_o we_o sit_v talk_v half_o a_o hour_n and_o i_o return_v to_o the_o prison_n there_o to_o remain_v as_o long_o as_o it_o please_v god_n and_o the_o king_n who_o god_n long_o preserve_v in_o all_o happiness_n there_o be_v another_o objection_n which_o i_o forget_v to_o put_v in_o until_o i_o have_v finish_v the_o former_a write_n and_o it_o be_v a_o objection_n which_o the_o judge_n be_v please_v to_o put_v against_o i_o himself_o and_o it_o be_v that_o i_o have_v change_v my_o name_n and_o go_v in_o several_a place_n by_o several_a name_n to_o which_o i_o answer_v the_o reason_n be_v because_o in_o cromwel_n time_n in_o the_o great_a trouble_n our_o family_n suffer_v much_o my_o father_n be_v imprison_v and_o a_o fellow-prisoner_n with_o sir_n thomas_n ashton_n both_o confine_v together_o which_o sir_n thomas_n be_v now_o one_o of_o his_o majesty_n admiral_n of_o the_o fleet._n and_o for_o my_o own_o part_n i_o go_v beyond_o sea_n to_o travel_v i_o change_v my_o name_n and_o then_o come_v into_o england_n again_o before_o the_o king_n restauration_n i_o be_v glad_a to_o conceal_v myself_o and_o go_v by_o several_a name_n as_o many_o other_o of_o the_o king_n be_v loyal_a subject_n do_v the_o better_a to_o be_v able_a to_o do_v his_o majesty_n the_o best_a service_n i_o can_v which_o according_a to_o my_o small_a ability_n i_o do_v endeavour_n both_o before_o and_o since_o the_o king_n come_v into_o england_n like_o a_o dutiful_a subject_n and_o like_o the_o rest_n of_o our_o family_n who_o all_o endeavour_v to_o serve_v his_o majesty_n for_o i_o have_v two_o brother_n serve_v he_o the_o one_o a_o volunteer_n at_o sea_n in_o sir_n william_n reeve_n ship_n which_o sir_n william_n be_v kill_v in_o the_o

of_o my_o name_n on_o such_o a_o occasion_n as_o i_o do_v can_v not_o be_v impute_v as_o a_o guilt_n upon_o i_o nor_o speak_v i_o other_o than_o a_o dutiful_a subject_n which_o i_o can_v have_v make_v further_o appear_v before_o the_o bench_n but_o i_o do_v not_o judge_v it_o convenient_a to_o say_v any_o more_o to_o the_o judge_n there_o in_o public_a but_o before_o his_o lordship_n go_v out_o of_o worcester_n i_o present_v he_o with_o a_o petition_n to_o acquaint_v his_o lordship_n that_o i_o have_v have_v the_o honour_n to_o kiss_v his_o majesty_n hand_n before_o his_o restauration_n in_o the_o low-countries_n as_o also_o i_o have_v have_v the_o honour_n to_o be_v one_o of_o those_o who_o his_o majesty_n be_v please_v to_o grace_v with_o be_v entertain_v by_o we_o his_o then_o best_a subject_n his_o majesty_n be_v please_v to_o make_v we_o a_o gracious_a promise_n that_o when_o it_o shall_v please_v god_n to_o restore_v he_o to_o his_o crown_n we_o shall_v not_o live_v so_o in_o banishment_n as_o then_o we_o do_v of_o this_o in_o my_o petition_n i_o do_v acquaint_v the_o judge_n and_o beseech_v he_o that_o he_o will_v be_v please_v by_o declare_v this_o to_o the_o king_n to_o endeavour_v to_o obtain_v some_o gracious_a favour_n from_o his_o majesty_n for_o i_o my_o condition_n now_o be_v such_o that_o i_o can_v never_o have_v great_a need_n to_o be_v partaker_n of_o his_o gracious_a promise_n and_o clemency_n the_o judge_n promise_v i_o he_o will_v make_v a_o address_n to_o his_o majesty_n for_o i_o in_o this_o behalf_n which_o whether_o he_o have_v do_v or_o no_o i_o wish_v some_o body_n may_v put_v he_o in_o mind_n to_o do_v it_o for_o i_o i_o do_v not_o here_o mention_v the_o place_n where_o in_o particular_a nor_o the_o other_o person_n to_o who_o his_o majesty_n make_v that_o promise_n but_o if_o you_o remember_v you_o know_v i_o do_v tell_v you_o with_o several_a other_o particular_a circumstance_n which_o i_o need_v not_o here_o make_v any_o further_a mention_n of_o the_o last_o speech_n of_o mr._n francis_n johnson_n priest_n of_o the_o order_n of_o st._n francis_n who_o be_v execute_v as_o a_o priest_n only_o at_o worcester_n upon_o the_o 22d_o of_o august_n anno_fw-la dom_fw-la 1679._o which_o he_o speak_v for_o the_o most_o part_n upon_o the_o ladder_n immediate_o before_o his_o execution_n but_o be_v interrupt_v and_o that_o which_o he_o do_v speak_v be_v take_v by_o a_o unskilful_a scribe_n be_v print_v by_o the_o half_n and_o so_o imperfect_a that_o it_o be_v in_o some_o place_n nonsense_n to_o correct_v that_o abuse_n this_o which_o he_o leave_v write_v with_o his_o own_o hand_n be_v publish_v by_o friend_n almighty_a god_n out_o of_o his_o infinite_a goodness_n to_o this_o world_n through_o the_o merit_n of_o his_o son_n christ_n jesus_n ordain_v or_o make_v choice_n of_o three_o virtue_n whereby_o we_o must_v walk_v which_o be_v these_o viz._n faith_n hope_n and_o charity_n first_o by_o virtue_n of_o faith_n we_o be_v to_o believe_v all_o thing_n that_o be_v do_v in_o this_o world_n second_o by_o virtue_n of_o hope_n we_o be_v to_o believe_v and_o hope_v for_o all_o thing_n in_o another_o world_n and_o the_o reason_n why_o christian_n do_v believe_v this_o hope_n be_v to_o bring_v and_o conduct_v they_o to_o salvation_n in_o the_o other_o world_n and_o if_o we_o hope_v in_o god_n we_o can_v but_o believe_v god_n for_o with_o the_o mouth_n confession_n be_v make_v but_o with_o the_o heart_n and_o through_o faith_n we_o must_v believe_v unto_o salvation_n so_o that_o faith_n be_v not_o to_o be_v tread_v under_o foot_n or_o to_o be_v hide_v under_o a_o bushel_n but_o to_o be_v set_v upon_o a_o candlestick_n luke_n 12_o whosoever_o do_v confess_v i_o before_o man_n he_o will_v i_o

faith_n there_o be_v but_o one_o faith_n one_o lord_n one_o baptism_n if_o it_o be_v so_o how_o can_v this_o stand_v with_o so_o many_o sectary_n as_o there_o be_v if_o there_o be_v but_o one_o
