Of the points that I am accused of, these be the two marks whereunto mine accusers direct all their shot of eloquence-a deed and a saying. After this sort, in effect is the deed alleged with so long words, 'Wyatt in so great trust with the king's majesty that he made him his embassador, and for whom his majesty hath done so much, being embassador hath had intelligence with the king's rebel and traitor, Pole.' Touching the saying amounteth to this much: That same Wyatt, being also embassador, maliciously, falsely, and traitorously said, "That he feared that the king should be cast out of a cart's tail, and that by God's blood, if it were so, he were well served, and he would it were so." The sole apparel of the rest of this process pertains to the proof of the one or the other of these two points. But if these two points appear to you to be more than false, maliciously invented, craftily disguised, and worse set forth, I doubt not but the rest of this proof will be but reproofs in any honest man's judgment. But let us come to the matter. And here I beseech you, if any of you have brought with you already my judgment by reason of such tales as you have heard of me abroad, that ye will leave all such determination aside, and only weigh the matter as it shall be here apparent unto you. And besides that, think, I beseech you, that if it be sufficient for the condemnation of any man to be accused only, that then there is no man guiltless. But if for condemnation is requisite proof and declaration, then take me as not yet condemned, till thoroughly, advisedly and substantially ye have heard and marked my tale. SIR THOMAS WYATT. IDEM GRAECE. Τῶν δέ μου κατηγορουμένων ἐς δύο μάλιστα, ὡς ἐγᾦμαι, πᾶσαν ἱᾶσι γλῶσσαν οἱ κατηγοροῦντες· λέγω δὲ θάτερον τὸ πεπραγμένον καὶ θάτερον τὸ λελεγμένον. τὸ μὲν οὖν ἔργον περὶ οὗ τοσοῦτον μηκύνουσι λόγον ἐστὶ τοιόνδε, ὡς ὁ Ὕατος καὶ τἆλλα ὑπὸ τοῦ βασιλέως εὖ παθὼν καὶ δὴ καὶ τοσοῦτον ὑπ ̓ αὐτοῦ πιστευθεὶς ὥστε πρεσβευτὴς ἀποσταλῆναι, οὗτος δῆθεν τῷ Πώλῳ τῷ τὸν βασιλέα προδόντι καὶ αὐτοῦ ἀφεστηκότι κεκοινώνηκεν. τὸ δὲ λελεγμένον τοιόνδε· ὡς οὗτος ὁ αὐτὸς Ὕατος πρεσβευτής ὢν προδοτικῶς καὶ ψευδῶς δεδοικέναι ἔφη μὴ ὁ βασιλεὺς τὸ λεγόμενον ἐκ δίφρων ἐκπέσῃ, καὶ νὴ Δία ἄξιον εἶναι καὶ εἴθε γένοιτο τόδε. καὶ τἆλλα πάντα ἐν ταύτῃ τῇ δίκῃ ἐς οὐδὲν ἄλλο συμφέρει ἢ τὸ θάτερον τούτοιν ἐξελέγχειν. ἐὰν δὲ τὰ δύο ταῦτα οὐχ ὅτι ψευδῆ ὄντα φαίνηται, ἀλλὰ καὶ διαβόλως συμπλασθέντα καὶ δολερῶς κρυφθέντα καὶ ἔτι χεῖρον διηγηθέντα, οὐκ ἀμφισβητήσιμον ἔσται τῷ γε δικαίως νομίζοντι ταῦτα πολὺ μᾶλλον ἐλέγχεσθαι ἢ ἐλέγχειν. ̓Αλλὰ νὴ Δία ἐς αὐτὸ τὸ πρᾶγμα ἐλθεῖν δεῖ· ὑμῶν δὲ ὅστις δι ̓ ὧν ἄλλοθι περὶ ἐμοῦ ἀκήκοεν ἤδη προκατεγνωκώς πάρεστι, τοῦτον ἱκετεύω τοιαύτην παρ ρέντα γνώμην τὸ πρᾶγμα ὥσπερ ἐνθάδε ὑμῖν ἔργῳ δόξει σκοπεῖν. νομίσατε δὲ εἰ μὲν τό γέ τινα κατηγορεῖσθαι μόνον ἱκανόν ἐστιν ἐς τὸ καταγνωσθῆναι, οὕτως γε δὴ οὐδένα πώποτε ἀναίτιον εἶναι· εἰ δὲ δεῖ μαρτυρεῖν ἱκανῶς καὶ ἐλέγχειν, τότε δὴ ἐμὲ ὡς μηκέτι καταγνωσθέντα ἕξετε, πρὶν ἂν ἔργῳ καὶ ἐπιτηδὲς καὶ ἀκριβῶς ὁ ἐρῶ ἀκούσητε καὶ ἐννοήσητε.
