^■"•'^''- '• On search being made among his papers, the charge of libel rose into a charge of treason. For among those papers was a manuscript in which the king and the prince of Wales were denounced as men whose evil ways might be expected to bring upon them some signal judgment from Heaven. It was concluded that language so extraordinary seemed to imply the exist- ence of some traitorous confederacy. Being put to the rack, Peacham named several of the gentry in his neighbourhood as being acqu...ainted with what he had written and as approving it. The character of the man was bad. His testimony was contradictory, and manifestly false. But the chief justice found defama- tion only in his language. He could not pronounce the offender guilty of treason. James was greatly excited. ' If matters are to take this course/ said his majesty, ' happy then are all desperate and seditious knaves ; ' but the fortune of the crown is more than miser- * able. '* In the issue, Peacham was condemned as a traitor ; but it was deemed less odious that he should be allowed to die in prison, than that he should be brought to the scaffold.
