Mr. Love. I do declare, I do submit to the trial, and am willing to do it; but it behoves me to use all just means for the preservation of my life; if you will, give me but a days time to consult with counsel.
Mr. Love. I do declare, I do submit to the tryall, and am willing to do it; but it behoves me to use all just means for the preservation of my life; if you will, give me but a dayes time to consult with counsell.
L. Pres. That is in your learning sufficient to say, you will do it, and yet do not do it; because I say, I will submit, therefore I do submit; this is no obedience at all. I know no such Logic as this; it is submitting that must do it; you will submit, but you will not act; pray M. Love, be so charitable as to take us to be Christians.

Mr. Love. What prejudice Sir, can it be to this Court, being I have not spoken with any Lawyer, to give me but a days time? I will desire no more.
