'Being asked, if ever he had said, "It will never be well in England, till the king and his cubs were taken away"; he said, he had answered before, and that he would answer no more to that point.' RALEIGH--I am not named in all this: there is a law of two sorts of Accusers; one of his own knowledge, another by hear-say. EARL OF SUFFOLK--See the Case of Arnold. LORD CHIEF-JUSTICE--It is the Case of sir Will. Thomas, and sir Nicholas Arnold. RALEIGH--If this may be, you will have any man's life in a week. ATTORNEY--Raleigh saith, that Cobham was in a passion when he said so. Would he tell his brother anything of malice against Raleigh, whom he loved as his life? RALEIGH--Brook never loved me; until his brother had accused me, he said nothing. LORD CECIL--We have heard nothing that might lead us to think that Brook accused you, he was only in the surprizing Treason: for by accusing you he should accuse his brother. RALEIGH--He doth not much care for that. LORD CECIL--I must judge the best. The accusation of his brother was not voluntary; he pared everything as much as he could to save his brother. _Cobham's Examination read._ 'He saith he had a Book written against the Title of the King, which he had of Raleigh, and that he gave it to his brother Brook: and Raleigh said it was foolishly written.' ATTORNEY--After the king came within 12 miles of London, Cobham never came to see him; and intended to travel without seeing the queen and the prince. Now in this discontentment you gave him the Book, and he gave it his brother. RALEIGH--I never gave it him, he took it off my table. For I well remember a little before that time I received a Challenge from sir Amias Preston,[17] and for that I did intend to answer it, I resolved to leave my estate settled, therefore I laid out all my loose papers, amongst which was this Book. LORD HOWARD--Where had you this Book? RALEIGH--In the old Lord Treasurer's Study, after his death. LORD CECIL--Did you ever shew or make known this Book to me? RALEIGH--No, my lord. LORD CECIL--Was it one of the books which was left to me or my brother? RALEIGH--I took it out of the study in my Lord Treasurer's house in the Strand.
