THE LATE SPEECH and TESTIMONY OF WILLIAM GOGOR ,

One of the three Desperate and incorrigible Traitors , Execute at the Grass-Mercat in Edinburgh , the eleventh day of March , 1681 , for disowning His Sacred Majesties Authority ; and owning and adhering to these Bloudy and Murdering Principles , contained in that Execrable . Declaration at Sanquhar , Cargils Traiterous Covenant , and Sacrilegious Excommunicating of the KING , by that Arch-Traitor Cargil , and avowing of themselves to be bound in Conscience , and by their Covenant , to Murder the KING , and all that Serve under Him ; being Armed ( the time they were apprehended ) for that purpose .

MEn and Brethren , these are to shew you , that I am come here this day to lay down my Life for owning Christ and his Truths ; and in so much as we are Calumniate and Reproached , by lying upon our Names , and dreadful upbraiding of us , with saying , That we are not led by the Scriptures , and say we have taken other Rules to walk by ; I take the Great God to be Witness against all and every one of them , that I take the Word of God to be my Rule , and I never designed any thing but honesty , and faithfulness to Christ : and for owning of Christ and the Scriptures , this day I am murdered ; for adhering to the Born-down-truths , I am Condemned to dy ; and I also leave my Testimony , and bear Witness against all the Apostate Ministers this day , that have taken favour at the Enemies hands : the only thing they take away my Life for , is , Because I disowned all those Bloody Traytors not to be Magistrates , which the Word of God casts off , and we are bound in Conscience and Covenant to God , to disown all such as are Enemies to God , and which they are avowed and open Enemies to Christ ; And they have made void my Word , faith the Lord : Say what ye will Devils , say Wretches say Enemies , say what ye will , we are owning the Truth of Christ , and his written Word ; and condemn me in my Judgement who will , I leave my Blood on one and all , that says we are not led by the Scriptures : I leave my Blood upon you again to be a Witness against you , and a Condemnation in the great Day of Judgment . I have no more to say , I think this may mitigat all your Rage and so forth , I leave his Enemies to his Curse , to be punished into Everlasting Wrath , for now and ever , Amen .

Sic subscribitur , WIL. GOGOR .
