to_o be_v entertain_v among_o we_o and_o therefore_o i_o desire_v he_o to_o absent_v himself_o lord_n chief_z just_o why_o be_v he_o not_o fit_a to_o be_v employ_v among_o you_o whitebread_n for_o several_a reason_n of_o our_o own_o first_o of_o all_o it_o be_v doubtful_a whether_o he_o be_v a_o good_a catholic_n for_o he_o have_v oftentimes_o maintain_v several_a proposition_n that_o be_v

he_o be_v here_o in_o england_n send_v over_o by_o we_o but_o we_o will_v prove_v he_o be_v not_o lord_n chief_z just_o but_o you_o maintain_v he_o abroad_o whitebread_n that_o be_v before_o lord_n

maintain_v abroad_o whitebread_n but_o my_o lord_n i_o suppose_v there_o be_v some_o difference_n between_o charitable_a act_n to_o a_o man_n in_o want_n and_o a_o scholar_n and_o trust_v he_o with_o such_o a_o intrigue_n as_o this_o fenw_n pray_v my_o lord_n be_v please_v to_o take_v notice_n that_o this_o man_n evidence_n all_o along_o be_v that_o he_o see_v such_o and_o such_o letter_n from_o such_o and_o such_o person_n they_o have_v no_o evidence_n but_o just_a that_o they_o see_v such_o and_o such_o letter_n and_o how_o be_v it_o possible_a that_o a_o man_n who_o be_v turn_v away_o from_o saint_n omers_n for_o his_o misdemenour_n that_o i_o shall_v show_v all_o my_o letter_n now_o my_o lord_n i_o have_v have_v a_o thousand_o letter_n take_v from_o i_o not_o any_o of_o these_o

what_o be_v in_o they_o all_z the_o evidence_n that_o be_v give_v come_v but_o to_o this_o there_o be_v but_o say_v &_o swear_v i_o defy_v they_o all_o to_o give_v one_o probable_a reason_n to_o

but_o it_o be_v that_o proof_n that_o we_o go_v by_o and_o by_o which_o all_o man_n life_n and_o fortune_n be_v to_o be_v determine_v but_o then_o say_v you_o it_o be_v wonderful_a that_o since_o they_o say_v they_o see_v such_o and_o such_o letter_n they_o shall_v not_o produce_v they_o why_o they_o do_v not_o belong_v to_o they_o ay_o but_o then_o say_v you_o it_o be_v strange_a they_o

that_o i_o take_v nothing_o out_o of_o the_o way_n they_o take_v five_o or_o six_o thousand_o pound_n bond_n and_o bill_n beside_o letter_n methinks_v something_o of_o the_o effect_n of_o those_o
