You are to know, said he, that several Committees of Council have been lately called in the most private manner on your account; and it is but two Days since his Majesty came to a full Resolution.
You are very sensible that Skyresh Bolgolam (Galbet, or High Admiral) has been your mortal Enemy almost ever since your Arrival: His original Reasons I know not, but his Hatred is much increased since your great Success against Blefuscu, by which his Glory as Admiral is obscur'd. This Lord, in conjunction with Flimnap the High Treasurer, whose Enmity against you is notorious on account of his Lady, Limtoc the General, Lalcon the Chamberlain, and Balmuff the grand Justiciary, have prepared Articles of Impeachment against you, for Treason, and other capital Crimes.
This preface made me so impatient, being conscious of my own Merits and Innocence, that I was going to interrupt; when he entreated me to be silent, and thus proceeded.
Out of Gratitude for the Favours you have done me, I procured Information of the whole Proceedings, and a Copy of the Articles, wherein I venture my Head for your Service.
Articles of Impeachment against empire pocker Quinbus Flestrin (the Man-Mountain)

There are some other Articles, but these are the most important, of which I have read you an Abstract.
In the several Debates upon this Impeachment, it must be confessed that his Majesty gave many marks of his great Lenity, often urging the Services you had done him, and endeavoring to extenuate your Crimes. The Treasurer and Admiral insisted that you should be put to the most painful and ignominious Death, by setting fire on your House at Night, and the General was to attend with twenty Thousand Men armed with poisoned Arrows to shoot you on the Face and Hands. Some of your Servants were to have private Orders to strew a poisonous Juice on your Shirts, which would soon make you tear your own Flesh, and die in the utmost Torture. The General came into the same Opinion, so that for a long time there was a Majority against you: but his Majesty resolving, if possible, to spare your Life, at last brought off the Chamberlain.
