for_o the_o defence_n of_o sea_n and_o land_n which_o i_o have_v speak_v of_o in_o the_o first_o part_n of_o this_o memorial_n and_o albeit_o the_o strictness_n of_o the_o prince_n be_v necessary_a in_o give_v pardon_n for_o cut_v off_o all_o hope_n to_o the_o malefactor_n yet_o be_v it_o to_o be_v wish_v that_o the_o rigour_n of_o our_o temporal_a law_n for_o put_v man_n to_o death_n for_o theft_n of_o so_o small_a quantity_n or_o value_n as_o be_v accustom_v in_o england_n be_v much_o moderate_v and_o some_o lesser_a bodily_a punishment_n invent_v for_o that_o purpose_n as_o also_o that_o some_o mean_n of_o moderation_n wherein_o the_o manner_n of_o quick_a dispatch_n of_o man_n life_n by_o jury_n impanel_v in_o haste_n and_o force_v to_o give_v verdict_n of_o life_n and_o

by_o any_o proctor_n attorney_n contrary_a witness_n or_o other_o such_o aide_n as_o both_o reason_n and_o other_o country_n law_n and_o equity_n itself_o seem_v to_o allow_v whereof_o i_o shall_v speak_v more_o when_o i_o shall_v come_v to_o speak_v of_o our_o common-law_n of_o england_n in_o the_o four_o chapter_n of_o this_o part._n and_o for_o that_o it_o will_v not_o be_v enough_o to_o

it_o must_v appertain_v also_o unto_o a_o catholic_n prince_n who_o god_n shall_v bless_v with_o the_o crown_n of_o england_n to_o show_v himself_o a_o continual_a watchman_n over_o the_o same_o and_o with_o his_o vigilance_n provide_v for_o the_o perpetuation_n thereof_o and_o first_o of_o all_o to_o assure_v the_o succession_n of_o the_o crown_n by_o good_a provision_n of_o law_n which_o heretic_n of_o late_a year_n have_v so_o much_o confound_v and_o make_v so_o uncertain_a name_v and_o in_o such_o manner_n must_v be_v link_v the_o state_n of_o catholic_n religion_n and_o
