§ 14 Secret blabbed by King
samples of from the same quarter before: the
chance threw the slave in the black Emperor's way
and in receiving his seeing him prostrate with
a petition in his mouth, it bethought him for a
moment, that he would less down to him a
particle of his pleasure. Having nothing better
in readiness for me, he gave me came out the truth,
not sufficiently considering the consequences, or rather
understanding that as nothing prior had ever had
so neither would that or any thing that he
and his confederates the rest of the confederacy might do have any consequences
they need care about. When he
first set up his legislative power (I trust Your
Lordship is pretty well satisfied he did not know
what he was about: he knew as little what he
was about, when he thus told, when he thus
as I have ventured to so call it blabbed the use
he had thus been making of it. My Lord
the question is one which by this time Your
Lordship is can not but be in a condition to answer as well
as most people⊞ ⊞ but what the Clerks in Your Lordships Office have answered long ago – and even in the hearing of a stranger and intruder such as myself. Does Mr Secretary King
know what he is about at any time?
No my Lord, it is an argument that
will never hold: that because a the plot has been
belonged therefore there was no never plot to betray, that
because there was indiscretion, there was no guilt indiscretion followed therefore no guilt preceded
it. Were Had arguments such as these been
admissible, the volumes of on the State Trials would
not have been so numerous as they are our students find them.
