with_o every_o wind_n will_v become_v as_o treacherous_a to_o their_o latter_a benefactor_n as_o they_o have_v be_v unto_o their_o former_a master_n and_o therefore_o though_o we_o shall_v forgive_v

that_o for_o these_o three_o reason_n 1._o for_o that_o he_o which_o have_v turn_v one_o leaf_n can_v turn_v another_o and_o he_o that_o have_v betray_v my_o father_n may_v upon_o the_o like_a hope_n

traitor_n to_o former_a prince_n for_o their_o good_a service_n do_v to_o latter_a master_n may_v prove_v to_o be_v a_o encouragement_n for_o other_o to_o become_v rebel_n and_o traitor_n in_o like_a manner_n against_o their_o king_n for_o when_o among_o many_o thousand_o of_o rebel_n they_o see_v but_o few_o punish_v the_o rest_n pardon_v and_o many_o of_o they_o favour_v and_o prefer_v why_o may_v not_o the_o sedition_n think_v that_o they_o shall_v either_o prevail_v or_o if_o miss_v of_o their_o enterprise_n they_o may_v escape_v the_o fortune_n of_o those_o few_o that_o shall_v be_v

a_o great_a offence_n and_o discouragement_n to_o those_o that_o have_v ever_o continue_v faithful_a and_o loyal_a especial_o if_o they_o see_v themselves_o postponed_a and_o neglect_v and_o therefore_o the_o king_n and_o prince_n that_o i_o tell_v you_o of_o think_v it_o neither_o wisdom_n nor_o policy_n to_o regard_n and_o favour_v those_o who_o they_o pardon_v for_o their_o treachery_n to_o their_o former_a prince_n though_o they_o have_v do_v never_o so_o good_a service_n unto_o themselves_o and_o if_o all_o king_n do_v so_o i_o believe_v few_o traitor_n will_v spring_v up_o

reason_n 1._o because_o the_o difficulty_n of_o frame_v the_o indictment_n so_o that_o a_o cunning_a lawyer_n can_v easy_o find_v a_o fault_n and_o a_o flaw_n in_o it_o and_o then_o the_o frequent_a

render_v unto_o he_o 2._o it_o be_v a_o great_a abuse_n and_o injury_n unto_o the_o poor_a subject_n that_o shall_v be_v drive_v out_o of_o his_o possession_n and_o for_o want_v of_o a_o sufficient_a clerk_n or_o counsellor_n to_o draw_v the_o right_a form_n of_o his_o indictment_n which_o as_o i_o see_v few_o can_v do_v he_o shall_v both_o spend_v his_o money_n and_o lose_v his_o labour_n and_o perhaps_o he_o be_v not_o able_a to_o do_v as_o i_o do_v three_o or_o four_o time_n to_o draw_v indictment_n till_o he_o find_v one_o that_o may_v stand_v good_a 3._o this_o frequent_a quash_a of_o indictment_n be_v a_o great_a encouragement_n for_o oppressor_n and_o wicked_a man_n to_o wrong_v their_o neighbour_n more_o and_o more_o for_o say_v they_o i_o will_v enter_v upon_o he_o and_o thrust_v he_o out_o and_o if_o he_o do_v indite_v i_o i_o will_v remove_v it_o to_o the_o king_n bench_n and_o i_o shall_v find_v a_o lawyer_n that_o will_v quash_n his_o indictment_n by_o and_o by_o 4._o this_o very_a practice_n and_o proceed_n may_v be_v fear_v to_o prove_v the_o very_a bane_n and_o destruction_n of_o whole_a nation_n and_o kingdom_n for_o if_o righteousness_n exalt_v a_o

then_o you_o may_v see_v how_o requisite_a it_o be_v for_o king_n and_o prince_n to_o look_v to_o those_o thing_n and_o not_o to_o suffer_v unrighteous_a judge_n either_o for_o favour_n to_o one_o

the_o truth_n of_o my_o enemy_n but_o for_o myself_o i_o thank_v god_n for_o it_o as_o i_o live_v many_o year_n very_o quiet_o and_o content_o with_o far_o less_o mean_n than_o 20_o li._n a_o year_n and_o with_o far_o less_o pain_n and_o trouble_n than_o i_o have_v now_o so_o i_o doubt_v not_o but_o i_o can_v live_v so_o still_o and_o i_o resolve_v and_o vow_v as_o i_o have_v attest_v in_o my_o
