I will say as Daniel, Purus sum a sanguine hufus. * So God have mercy upon my soul, as I know no treason by you !" " Now I wonder, " said Ralegh contemptuously, " how many souls this man hath : he damns one in this letter, and another in that. " " Here, " says the account of the trial, " was much ado. Mr. Attorney alleged that his (Cobham's) last letter was politicly and cunningly urged from the Lord Cobham, and that the first was simply the truth. " And now, there being an end of the evidence,... the jury retired, and in less than a quarter of an hour returned with their verdict, GuiLTY. F * Cobham's remembrance of the Scriptures must have been unsettled at this time. He meant Pilate, not Daniel. t Sir Anthony Weldon, in his "Anlicus Coquinariffi, " observes: "For Ralegh's defence, it was so brave and just, that (had he not wilfully cast himself, out of very weariness, as unwilling to detain the company longer), no jury could ever have cast him. " But Ralegh was ever present to himself on this occasion.
