,
th
one
from

,
thother
from
butterie
:
which
two
be
now
more
then
Barons
by
office
and
dignitie
,
more
then
Earles
by
possessions
and
wealth
,
more
then
Dukes
in
authoritie
:
which
two
be
now
your
cosoning
Counsaillors
,
though
sett
vppe
by
your
good
fauour
in
the
cheifest
places
of
the
Realme
,
whereby
they
haue
made
them selues
mightie
in
money
,
mariages
and
allies
,
and
be
the
two
captaine
conspiratours
,
that
haue
in
their
owne
power
and
in
the
handes
of
their
confederates
,
all
the
offices
,
all
the
portes
,
all
the
fortresses
,
your
treasour
,
your
armour
,
yea
your selfe
,
your
succession
and
the
whole
realme
to

their
will
:
They
be
the
two
captaine
conspiratours
,
that
haue
beset
yow
rownde
abowte
with
feares
,
and
dangers
prepared
by
them selues
and
by
sondrie
fine
deuises
remoued
from
yow
all
defenses
of
faithfull
frindes
at
home
and
a
broade
,
deuided
the
realme
into
factions
,
abused
your
authoritie
,
imploied
your
treasours
to
the
danger
of
your
state
,
to
the
infamie
of
your
person
,
and
to
your
final
ouerthrow
by
death
or
depriuation
●…ere
it
be
long
.
Thus
that
treatise
discouereth
those
two
traiterous
Counsaillours
:
who
to
worke
more
subtilly
their
mischeuous
intentions
,
and
to
kepe
yow
from
espying
their
terrible
treasons
,
haue
misleaden
yow
by
a
false
show
of
other
treasons
,
wich
were
neuer
intended
,
and
abused
yow
vndre
title
of
dutie
,
pretence
of
seruice
,
and
colour
of
securitie
to
hold
them
vnsuspected
.
In
that
treatise
also
your
heighnes
shal
see
the
vnbuckling
and
lifting
vpp
of
their
●…sardes
and
veiles
,
that
wold
walke
vn●…eene
,
and
still
couertlie
circumuent
yow
by
their
fine
fetches
whiles
they
freelie
finish
their
determined
treasons
against
your
person
and
state
.
That
treatise
of
treasons
is
abridged
into
this
table
,
which
showeth
forth
but
in
●…reife
maner
,
what
in
the
same
is
at
full
enlarged
.
It
is
therefore
passing
necessarie
,
that

treatise
,

wel
for
the
more
full
and
better
vnderstanding
of
the
conspiratours
practises
fi●…allie
ment
:
as
for
their
mischeuous
meanes
●…sed
to
bring
their
practises
to
passe
.
And
●…t
is
more
then
high
time
to
vnderstand
the
●…mpudent
falsehood
,
the
fatall
malice
,
the
desperat
deuises
of
the
conspiratours
against
your
line
,
your
life
and
Succession
if
by
speedie
meanes
and
good
aduise
,
they
be
not
prevented
.
The
author
of
the
treatise
,
and
the
abridger
of
the
same
beare
good
affection
to
yow
and
to
the
realme
:
and
therefore
doe
discouer
vnto
you
the
present
perills
that
now
hang
over
both
:
which
when
yow
shal
by
survew
perceave
and
vnderstand
,
God
giue
yow
grace
,
to
consider
and
preuent
.
And
Madam
for
that
it
cannot
be
doubted
but
that
those
two
Conspiratours
doe
watchfullie
care
and
politickly
provide
,
how
to
kepe
from
yow
alletters
,
bookes
and
treatesies
,
which
they
feare
may
let
or
discouer
their
final
purpose
:
It
hath
ben
thought
neccessarie
to
invent
and
find
owt
all
good
meanes
whereby
the
said
treatise
or
at
least
the
Table
of
the
same
,
might
by
some
more
faithful
seruant
of
yours
,
be
addressed
to
your
owne
handes
:
for
the
which
respect
it
hath
bene
by
meanes
conveighed
to
the
sight
of
your
trustie
servant
Mr.
Hatton
(
and
others
)
who
of
dewtie
and
alleageance
hath
bene
thought
the
most
fitt
instrument
to
present
yow
the
same
.
wherein
he
shal
showe
your
heighnes
,
more
love
dutie
and
faithful
obediece
,
then
those
of
your
Counsaillors
,
that
so
many
monethes
sithence
,
haue
had
the
treatise
it selfe
in
their
handes
and
concealed
the
same
,
either
of
doubt
their
practises
might
be
vntimelie
discouered
and
preuented
,
or
in
deede
for
lack
of
love
towardes
your
heighnes
person
:
which
standeth
in
greater
perill
then
yow
can
beleeve
.
God
geve
yow
grace
to
sorsee

as
not

him selfe

him
to

in
such
horror
of
treason

And

that

not
thus

come

but
by

whiche
some

Yf

because

It
is
an
historicall
obseruation
that
there
is
no
suretie
in

Yf
these

lacked
either

As
for

it
is

For
