thrice
in

the
Sacrament

He
was
not
guilty

was
pleased
by

to
let
the

know
his
gracious
Answer
,
He
should
dye

Term

Who
at

cast

when
upon
the
Ladder
so
far
protested
both
his
Masters
innocency
that
way
and
his
own
;
taking
God
to
witness
,
A

came
into

out

Privy
Councel
that
told
him

He
must
speak
for
the
King
,
and
thought
not
to
be
served
so
.
And
this
mans
house
utterly
ruined

chiefly
,
because
had
declined
Popery
,
before
his
untimely
death
ever
suspected
;
endeavoring
to
reform
his
Family
,
by
which
means
cast
himself

merciless
times

Mervin
Earl
of
Castlehaven
,
that
faithful
Martyr
,
suffering
(
as
it
were
)
between
those
twain
,
one
on
the
right
hand
,
the
other
on
the
lest
,
the
honor
having
to
be
the
first
entred
into
the
joy
of
his
Lord
;
of
whom
notwithstanding
the
worst
any
in
the
world
could
world
could
say
,
was
,
He
had
the
best
things
in
him
of
any
,
and
the
worst
:
Vpon
the
Scaffold
making
this
his
Confession
;
In
the
Name
of
God
Amen
.
I
Mervin
Earl
of
Castlehaven
,
being
in
my
full
strength
and
memory
,
thanks
be
given
unto
my
Maker
,
having
been
branded
and
openly
accused
for
change
,
alteration
and
doubtfulness
of
my
Faith
and
Religion
;
I
thought
fit
,
like
a
Christian
man
to
give
satisfaction
upon
what
ground
I
stand
for
my
belief
,
and
to
express
it
under
my
hand
,
for
the
satisfaction
of
all
charitable
people
and
Christians
.
First
,
I
do
believe
in
the
blessed
and
glorious
Trinity
,
three
persons
;
one
eternal
and
everlasting
God
,
God
the
Father
,
God
my
Redeemer
,
and
God
my
Sanctifier
.
I
do
relye
upon
the
merit
,
death
and
passion
of
our
blessed
Savior
Christ
Iesus
,
and
upon
his
mediation
for
the
remission
of
my
sins
.
I
do
believe
and
use
with
most
humble
reverence
our
Lords
Prayer
,
the
Creed
of
the
Apostles
,
and
the
ten
Commandments
,
as
they
are
set
down
and
allowed
in
the
Church
of
England
.
I
do
believe
the
Canonical
Scriptures
,
and
that
they
are
written
by
the
inspiration
of
the
holy
Spirit
.
And
for
the
rest
of
my
belief
,
I
do
refer
it
to
the
true
Orthodox
Faith
of
our
Church
of
England
.
And
from
the
Articles
received
at
this
present
in
the
Church
of
England
,
and
confirmed
by
authority
of
Parliament
,
I
do
not
differ
in
any
point
,
renouncing
all
the
Superstitions
and
Errors
taught
or
believed
in
the
Church
of
Rome
or
any
other
Church
;
in
which
Faith
I
will
,
God
willing
,
continue
to
my
lives
end
:
In
testimony
whereof
,
I
have
hereunto
subscribed
my
Hand
this
first
of
May
,
1631.
