yet_o and_o a_o penny_n be_v to_o little_a of_o conscience_n for_o such_o a_o farm_n as_o it_o be_v which_o be_v sufficient_a to_o find_v i_o and_o my_o wife_n and_o thirty_o person_n beside_o the_o

now_o see_v you_o have_v urge_v i_o let_v it_o fall_v out_o as_o it_o will_v for_o the_o law_n shall_v try_v it_o and_o now_o you_o shall_v see_v whether_o i_o will_v bear_v with_o falsehood_n or_o

say_v the_o judge_n though_o you_o have_v something_o missuse_v i_o if_o this_o be_v true_a you_o shall_v have_v the_o farm_n and_o all_o your_o desire_n then_o say_v the_o farmer_n if_o that_o be_v

matter_n that_o you_o have_v kill_v she_o or_o cause_v she_o to_o be_v kill_v but_o if_o you_o be_v sure_a you_o have_v not_o as_o i_o believe_v you_o will_v not_o for_o that_o you_o tell_v i_o how_o

as_o a_o prisoner_n a_o while_n until_o i_o see_v that_o it_o can_v be_v prove_v which_o i_o will_v quick_o try_v doubt_v you_o not_o therefore_o content_v yourself_o say_v the_o king_n for_o they_o that_o have_v thus_o slander_v you_o shall_v dear_o pay_v for_o it_o if_o they_o can_v be_v able_a to_o prove_v it_o then_o say_v the_o gentleman_n to_o the_o king_n god_n save_v your_o life_n o_o

though_o i_o be_v sorry_a before_o i_o know_v the_o matter_n and_o then_o the_o king_n send_v he_o away_o to_o prison_n siuqila_n this_o be_v a_o very_a good_a policy_n of_o the_o king_n to_o pretend_v her_o death_n against_o he_o which_o he_o know_v be_v false_a whereby_o to_o have_v a_o good_a occasion_n to_o send_v he_o to_o prison_n and_o thereby_o to_o keep_v he_o safe_a and_o to_o make_v he_o the_o less_o suspect_v the_o truth_n or_o that_o she_o be_v alive_a whereby_o he_o may_v be_v the_o mer●ier_n omen_n you_o say_v true_a and_o after_o that_o the_o king_n examine_v the_o

have_v be_v displace_v out_o of_o all_o your_o inheritance_n and_o live_n than_o it_o be_v like_a after_o his_o death_n when_o he_o can_v not_o disinherit_v you_o how_o cruel_o soever_o you_o handle_v she_o that_o either_o you_o have_v kill_v she_o yourself_o or_o appoint_v some_o other_o to_o do_v it_o then_o say_v the_o gentleman_n if_o it_o can_v be_v prove_v o_o worthy_a king_n that_o either_o
