Treby Would you have us tell you how you came here We suppose you came by due Process of Law as a Witness Edwards Then my Lord I desire to speak but one Word that is a strange thing to me to consider how Words should be carried away that were privately spoken as if it were to expose me to the Reproaches of all my Friends it is a thing that I did never expect to hear of again however seeing I am called here and obliged upon my Oath to declare what I know I by God's Grace will to the uttermost of my power tell what has pass'd in this Matter L.
