Condemn — Or, pronounce me not to be a wicked man, neither deal with me as such, as I confess thou mightest do in rigorous justice: O discover my integrity by removing this stroke, for which my friends condemn me.

And it is desirable to know, what that reason is, that we may forsake whatever he has a controversy with us for. |
