the_o last_o speech_n of_o mr._n oliver_n plunket_n titular_a primate_n of_o ireland_n who_o be_v execute_v at_o tyburn_n on_o friday_n the_o one_a of_o this_o instant_a july_n 1681._o write_a by_o his_o own_o hand_n i_o have_v some_o few_o day_n pass_v abide_v my_o trial_n at_o the_o kings-bench_n and_o now_o very_a soon_o i_o must_v hold_v up_o my_o hand_n at_o the_o king_n of_o king_n bench_n and_o appear_v before_o a_o judge_n who_o can_v be_v deceive_v by_o false_a witness_n or_o corrupt_a allegation_n for_o he_o know_v the_o secret_n of_o heart_n neither_o can_v he_o deceive_v any_o or_o give_v a_o unjust_a sentence_n or_o be_v mislead_v by_o respect_n of_o person_n he_o be_v all_o goodness_n and_o a_o most_o just_a judge_n will_v infallible_o decree_v a_o eternal_a reward_n for_o all_o good_a work_n and_o condign_a punishment_n for_o the_o small_a transgression_n against_o his_o commandment_n which_o be_v a_o most_o certain_a and_o undoubted_a truth_n it_o will_v be_v a_o wicked_a act_n and_o contrary_a to_o my_o perpetual_a welfare_n that_o i_o shall_v now_o by_o declare_v any_o thing_n contrary_a to_o truth_n commit_v a_o detestable_a sin_n for_o which_o within_o a_o very_a short_a time_n i_o must_v receive_v sentence_n of_o everlasting_a damnation_n after_o which_o there_o be_v no_o reprieve_n or_o hope_n of_o pardon_n i_o will_v therefore_o confess_v the_o truth_n without_o any_o equivocation_n and_o make_v use_n of_o the_o word_n according_a to_o their_o accustom_a signification_n assure_v you_o moreover_o that_o i_o be_o of_o that_o certain_a persuasion_n that_o no_o power_n not_o only_o upon_o earth_n but_o also_o in_o heaven_n can_v dispense_v with_o i_o or_o give_v i_o leave_v to_o make_v a_o false_a protestation_n and_o i_o protest_v upon_o the_o word_n of_o a_o die_a man_n and_o as_o i_o hope_v for_o salvation_n at_o the_o hand_n of_o the_o supreme_a judge_n that_o i_o will_v declare_v the_o naked_a truth_n with_o all_o candour_n and_o sincerity_n and_o that_o my_o affair_n may_v be_v the_o better_o know_v to_o all_o the_o world_n it_o be_v to_o be_v observe_v that_o i_o have_v be_v accuse_v in_o ireland_n of_o treason_n and_o praemunire_n and_o that_o there_o i_o be_v arraign_v and_o bring_v to_o my_o trial_n but_o the_o prosecutor_n man_n of_o flagitious_a and_o infamous_a life_n perceive_v that_o i_o have_v record_n and_o witness_n who_o will_v evident_o convince_v they_o and_o clear_o show_v my_o innocency_n and_o their_o wickedness_n they_o voluntary_o absent_v themselves_o and_o come_v to_o this_o city_n to_o procure_v that_o i_o shall_v be_v bring_v hither_o to_o my_o trial_n where_o the_o crime_n object_v be_v not_o commit_v where_o the_o jury_n do_v not_o know_v i_o or_o the_o quality_n of_o my_o accuser_n and_o be_v not_o inform_v of_o several_a other_o circumstance_n conduce_v to_o a_o fair_a trial_n here_o after_o six_o month_n close_a imprisonment_n or_o there_o about_o i_o be_v bring_v to_o the_o bar_n the_o three_o of_o may_n and_o arraign_v for_o a_o crime_n for_o which_o i_o be_v before_o arraign_v in_o ireland_n a_o strange_a resolution_n a_o rare_a fact_n of_o which_o you_o will_v hardly_o find_v a_o precedent_n these_o five_o hundred_o year_n past_a but_o whereas_o my_o witness_n and_o record_n be_v in_o ireland_n the_o lord_n chief_a justice_n give_v i_o five_o week_n time_n to_o get_v they_o bring_v hither_o but_o by_o reason_n of_o the_o uncertainty_n of_o the_o sea_n of_o wind_n and_o wether_n and_o of_o the_o difficulty_n of_o get_v copy_n of_o record_n and_o bring_v many_o witness_n from_o several_a county_n in_o ireland_n and_o for_o many_o other_o impediment_n of_o which_o affidavit_fw-la be_v make_v i_o can_v not_o at_o the_o end_n of_o the_o five_o week_n get_v the_o record_n and_o witness_n bring_v hither_o i_o therefore_o beg_v for_o twelve_o day_n more_o that_o i_o may_v be_v in_o a_o readiness_n for_o my_o trial_n which_o the_o lord_n chief_a justice_n deny_v and_o so_o i_o be_v bring_v to_o my_o trial_n and_o expose_v as_o it_o be_v with_o my_o hand_n tie_v to_o those_o merciless_a perjuror_n who_o do_v aim_n at_o my_o life_n by_o accuse_v i_o of_o these_o follow_a point_n first_o that_o i_o have_v send_v letter_n by_o one_o nial_n o_o neale_n who_o be_v my_o page_n to_o monsieur_n baldeschi_n the_o pope_n be_v secretary_n to_o

first_o i_o answer_v that_o nial_n o_o neale_n be_v never_o my_o servant_n or_o page_n and_o that_o i_o never_o send_v letter_n or_o letter_n by_o he_o to_o mounseur_fw-fr baldeschi_n or_o the_o bishop_n of_o aix_n or_o to_o principe_n colonna_n and_o i_o say_v that_o the_o english_a translation_n of_o that_o pretend_a letter_n produce_v by_o the_o friar_n macmoyer_n be_v a_o mere_a invention_n of_o he_o and_o never_o pen_v by_o i_o or_o its_o original_a either_o in_o english_a latin_a italian_a or_o any_o other_o language_n i_o affirm_v moreover_o that_o i_o never_o write_v

direct_o or_o indirect_o of_o any_o plot_n or_o conspiracy_n against_o my_o king_n or_o country_n far_o i_o vow_v that_o i_o never_o send_v agent_n or_o agent_n to_o rome_n or_o to_o any_o other_o court_n about_o any_o civil_a or_o temporal_a affair_n and_o it_o be_v well_o know_v for_o it_o be_v a_o precept_n public_o print_v that_o clergyman_n live_v in_o country_n where_o the_o government_n be_v not_o of_o roman_a catholic_n be_v command_v by_o rome_n not_o to_o write_v to_o rome_n concern_v any_o civil_a or_o temporal_a affair_n and_o i_o do_v aver_v that_o i_o never_o receive_v letter_n or_o letter_n from_o the_o pope_n or_o from_o any_o other_o of_o his_o minister_n make_v the_o least_o mention_n of_o any_o such_o matter_n so_o that_o the_o friar_n macmoyer_n and_o duffy_n swear_v most_o false_o as_o to_o such_o letter_n or_o letter_n agent_n or_o agent_n to_o the_o second_o i_o say_v that_o i_o never_o employ_v capt._n con_n o_o neal_n to_o the_o french_a king_n or_o to_o any_o of_o his_o minister_n and_o that_o i_o never_o write_v to_o he_o or_o receive_v letter_n from_o he_o and_o that_o i_o never_o see_v he_o but_o once_o nor_o ever_o speak_v to_o he_o to_o the_o best_a of_o my_o remembrance_n ten_o word_n and_o as_o for_o his_o be_v in_o charlemount_n or_o dungannon_n i_o never_o see_v he_o in_o they_o town_n or_o know_v of_o his_o be_v in_o those_o place_n so_o that_o as_o to_o con_fw-mi o_o neale_n friar_n mack_n moyer_n deposition_n be_v most_o false_a to_o the_o three_o i_o say_v that_o i_o never_o levy_v any_o money_n for_o a_o plot_n or_o conspiracy_n for_o bring_v in_o spaniard_n or_o french_a neither_o do_v i_o ever_o receive_v any_o upon_o that_o account_n from_o priest_n or_o friar_n as_o priest_n mac-clave_a and_o friar_n duffy_n most_o untrue_o assert_v i_o assure_v you_o that_o i_o never_o receive_v from_o any_o clergyman_n in_o ireland_n but_o what_o be_v due_a to_o i_o by_o ancient_a custom_n for_o my_o maintenance_n and_o what_o my_o predecessor_n these_o hundred_o year_n past_a be_v wont_a to_o receive_v nay_o i_o receive_v less_o than_o many_o of_o they_o and_o if_o all_o what_o the_o catholick-clergy_n of_o
