though_o he_o swear_v he_o come_v in_o after_o and_o there_o be_v thing_n say_v by_o some_o with_o much_o more_o heat_n than_o judgement_n which_o i_o do_v sufficient_o disapprove_v and_o yet_o for_o these_o thing_n i_o stand_v condemn_v but_o i_o thank_v god_n my_o part_n be_v sincere_a and_o well_o mean_v it_o be_v i_o know_v infer_v from_o hence_o and_o be_v press_v to_o i_o that_o i_o be_v acquaint_v with_o these_o heat_n and_o ill_a design_n and_o do_v not_o discover_v they_o but_o this_o be_v but_o misprision_n of_o treason_n at_o most_o so_o i_o die_v innocent_a of_o the_o crime_n i_o stand_v condemn_v for_o and_o i_o hope_v nobody_o will_v imagine_v that_o so_o mean_v a_o thought_n can_v enter_v into_o i_o as_o to_o go_v about_o to_o save_v myself_o by_o accuse_v other_o the_o

upon_o i_o i_o can_v but_o think_v it_o a_o very_a hard_a one_o for_o nothing_o be_v swear_v against_o i_o whether_o true_a or_o false_a i_o will_v not_o now_o examine_v but_o some_o discourse_n about_o make_v some_o stir_v and_o this_o be_v not_o levy_v war_n against_o the_o king_n which_o be_v treason_n by_o the_o statute_n of_o edward_n the_o three_o and_o not_o the_o consult_v and_o

the_o king_n and_o so_o i_o be_v in_o that_o cast_n and_o now_o i_o have_v true_o and_o sincere_o tell_v what_o my_o part_n be_v in_o that_o which_o can_v be_v more_o than_o a_o bare_a misprision_n and_o yet_o i_o be_o condemn_v as_o guilty_a of_o a_o design_n of_o kill_v the_o king_n i_o pray_v god_n lay_v not_o this_o to_o the_o charge_n neither_o of_o the_o king_n counsel_n nor_o judge_n nor_o sheriff_n nor_o jury_n and_o for_o the_o witness_n i_o pity_v they_o and_o wish_v they_o well_o i_o shall_v not_o reckon_v up_o the_o particular_n wherein_o they_o do_v i_o wrong_n i_o have_v rather_o their_o own_o conscience_n shall_v do_v that_o to_o which_o and_o the_o mercy_n of_o god_n i_o leave_v they_o only_o i_o still_o aver_v that_o what_o i_o say_v of_o my_o not_o hear_v col._n rumsey_n deliver_v his_o message_n from_o my_o lord_n shaftsbury_n be_v true_a for_o i_o always_o detest_v lie_v though_o never_o so_o much_o to_o my_o advantage_n and_o i_o hope_v none_o will_v be_v so_o unjust_a and_o uncharitable_a as_o to_o think_v i_o will_v venture_v on_o it_o in_o these_o my_o last_o word_n for_o which_o i_o be_o so_o soon_o to_o give_v a_o account_n to_o the_o great_a

and_o that_o no_o more_o innocent_a blood_n may_v be_v shed_v for_o i_o must_v and_o do_v still_o look_v upon_o i_o as_o such_o since_o i_o know_v i_o be_v guilty_a of_o no_o treason_n and_o therefore_o i_o will_v not_o betray_v my_o innocence_n by_o flight_n of_o which_o i_o do_v not_o i_o thank_v god_n yet_o repent_v though_o much_o press_v to_o it_o how_o fatal_a soever_o it_o may_v have_v seem_v to_o have_v prove_v to_o i_o for_o i_o look_v upon_o my_o death_n in_o this_o manner_n i_o thank_v god_n with_o other_o eye_n than_o the_o world_n do_v i_o know_v i_o say_v but_o little_a at_o the_o trial_n and_o i_o suppose_v it_o look_v more_o like_a innocence_n than_o gild_n i_o be_v also_o advise_v not_o to_o confess_v matter_n of_o fact_n plain_o since_o that_o must_v certain_o have_v bring_v i_o within_o the_o gild_n of_o misprision_n and_o be_v thus_o restrain_v from_o deal_v frank_o and_o open_o i_o choose_v rather_o to_o say_v little_a than_o to_o depart_v from_o ingenuity_n that_o by_o the_o grace_n of_o god_n i_o have_v carry_v along_o with_o i_o in_o the_o former_a part_n of_o my_o life_n and_o so_o can_v easy_o be_v silent_a and_o leave_v the_o whole_a matter_n to_o the_o conscience_n of_o the_o jury_n than_o to_o make_v the_o last_o and_o solemne_v part_n of_o my_o life_n so_o different_a from_o the_o course_n of_o it_o as_o the_o use_v little_a trick_n and_o evasion_n must_v have_v be_v nor_o do_v i_o ever_o pretend_v to_o a_o great_a readiness_n in_o speak_v i_o wish_v those_o gentleman_n of_o the_o law_n who_o have_v it_o will_v make_v more_o conscience_n in_o the_o use_n of_o it_o and_o not_o run_v man_n down_o by_o strain_n and_o fetch_n impose_v on_o easy_a and_o willing_a jury_n to_o the_o ruin_n of_o innocent_a man_n for_o to_o kill_v by_o form_n and_o subtlety_n of_o law_n be_v the_o worst_a sort_n of_o murder_n but_o i_o wish_v the_o rage_n of_o hot_a man_n and_o the_o partiality_n of_o jury_n may_v be_v stop_v with_o my_o blood_n which_o i_o will_v offer_v up_o with_o so_o much_o the_o more_o joy_n if_o i_o think_v i_o shall_v be_v the_o last_o be_v to_o suffer_v in_o such_o a_o way_n since_o my_o sentence_n i_o have_v have_v few_o thought_n but_o preparatory_a one_o for_o death_n yet_o the_o importunity_n of_o my_o friend_n and_o particular_o of_o the_o best_a and_o dear_a wife_n in_o the_o world_n prevail_v with_o i_o to_o sign_n petition_n and_o make_v address_n for_o my_o life_n to_o which_o i_o be_v very_o averse_a for_o i_o thank_v god_n though_o in_o all_o respect_v i_o have_v live_v one_o of_o the_o happy_a and_o contented'_v man_n in_o the_o world_n for_o now_o near_o fourteen_o year_n yet_o i_o be_o so_o willing_a to_o leave_v all_o that_o it_o be_v not_o without_o difficulty_n that_o i_o do_v any_o thing_n for_o the_o save_n of_o my_o life_n that_o be_v beg_v but_o i_o be_v willing_a to_o let_v my_o friend_n see_v what_o power_n they_o have_v over_o i_o and_o that_o i_o be_v not_o obstinate_a nor_o sullen_a but_o will_v do_v any_o thing_n that_o a_o honest_a man_n can_v do_v for_o their_o satisfaction_n which_o be_v the_o only_a motive_n that_o sway_v or_o
