           and
           therefore
           they
           needed

           not
           finding
           him

           That
           night
           the
           King
           made

           above
           three
           thousand

           but
           it
           seems
           no
           man

           morning
           the

           and
           enforced
           him

           where
           they
           anew
           demanded
           these
           men

           but
           with
           more
           instance

           but
           the
           King
           would
           not
           move
           ,
           bidding
           him
           stay

           confident

           The
           wise
           old
           man
           seeing
           this
           constancy

           or
           obstinacy

           betrayed

           but
           some

           a
           new

             Janizaries

           where
           they
           kept
           him
           for
           that
           night
           in
           an
           ill
           lodging
           .
        
         
         
           All
           this
           while
           
             Osman
          
           is
           consulting
           what
           course
           to
           take
           ;
           
           these
           two
           his
           friends
           and
           some
           others
           tell
           him
           ,
           that
           the
           case
           was
           desperate
           ,
           and
           could
           not
           be
           cured
           but
           by
           a
           desperate
           remedy
           ,
           and
           therefore
           they
           agreed
           that
           the
           
             Aga
          
           should
           go
           and
           perswade
           with
           the
           
             Mufti
          
           ;
           and
           that
           the
           King
           in
           the
           morning
           should
           suddenly
           present
           himself
           to
           the
           souldiers
           at
           their
           own
           doors
           ,
           and
           make
           experience
           what
           his
           
             presence
             ,
          
           his
           
             submission
          
           and
           his
           
             benevolence
          
           promised
           ,
           would
           work
           ,
           to
           move
           them
           to
           loyalty
           or
           compassion
           :
           which
           counsel
           early
           in
           the
           morning
           they
           put
           in
           practise
           .
           The
           King
           accompanyed
           with
           the
           
             Mufti
          
           (
           who
           never
           consented
           to
           his
           deposing
           ,
           though
           he
           favoured
           the
           souldiers
           against
           the
           Vizier

             Huzein

           about
           twelve
           horsemen

           there
           in
           teares
           made
           them
           an
           Oration

           offering
           great
           recompense

           repenting
           of
           his
           errours
           ,
           and
           finally
           invoked
           them
           by
           the
           merits

           The

           withdrawn
           by

           ,
           out
           of

           which
           way

           but
           binding
           up
           his

           They

           But
           a
           strong
           knave
           struck
           him
