meaning_n and_o so_o much_o in_o answer_n to_o this_o grand_a objection_n wherein_o i_o have_v be_v over_o tedious_a but_o shall_v recompense_v it_o with_o brevity_n in_o the_o remainder_n the_o

treason_n misprision_n and_o concealment_n of_o treason_n there_o commit_v and_o so_o quite_o deprive_v of_o their_o birthright_n of_o trial_n by_o their_o peer_n which_o will_v be_v of_o dangerous_a consequence_n i_o answer_v 1._o that_o i_o have_v manifest_v that_o this_o trial_n answer_n by_o peer_n be_v never_o deem_v claim_v nor_o enjoy_v in_o ireland_n as_o a_o privilege_n by_o irish_a

statute_n or_o the_o maker_n of_o it_o ever_o imagine_v to_o save_v this_o manner_n of_o trial_n by_o peer_n only_o to_o irish_a peer_n which_o they_o never_o enjoy_v nor_o so_o much_o as_o once_o claim_v or_o possess_v before_o the_o make_n of_o it_o neither_o can_v it_o be_v any_o injury_n or_o injustice_n to_o deprive_v they_o of_o that_o now_o they_o never_o heretofore_o claim_v use_v enjoy_v as_o their_o privilege_n and_o birthright_n be_v not_o indubitable_o settle_v on_o they_o by_o any_o law_n that_o i_o have_v see_v but_o only_o in_o some_o special_a case_n of_o treason_n since_o 35_o h._n 8._o whereof_o this_o be_v none_o by_o the_o late_a act_n of_o 2_o el._n z._n c._n 1._o and_o 6._o when_o as_o this_o privilege_n be_v take_v from_o they_o not_o by_o a_o bare_a

repeal_v 2_o this_o objection_n with_o as_o great_a or_o great_a strength_n colour_n may_v be_v make_v for_o all_o the_o commons_o of_o ireland_n far_o more_o numerous_a and_o considerable_a than_o their_o peer_n they_o be_v deprive_v by_o it_o of_o trial_n by_o irish_a jury_n in_o their_o native_a country_n than_o for_o irish_a peer_n alone_o which_o trial_n here_o against_o irish_a commons_o be_v never_o of_o late_o except_v against_o this_o law_n have_v be_v so_o often_o adjudge_v to_o reach_v to_o they_o therefore_o there_o be_v no_o colour_n to_o exempt_v irish_a peer_n out_o of_o it_o 3_o this_o pretend_a prejudice_n to_o irish_a peer_n in_o point_n of_o trial_n by_o their_o peer_n be_v sole_o in_o case_n of_o high_a treason_n or_o misprision_n and_o concealment_n of_o it_o and_o no_o other_o the_o statute_n extend_v to_o no_o crime_n but_o these_o alone_a therefore_o the_o mischief_n be_v not_o great_a in_o general_a and_o no_o irish_a peer_n i_o presume_v but_o such_o who_o have_v traitorous_a or_o disloyal_a heart_n will_v deem_v it_o a_o disparagement_n or_o injustice_n to_o they_o to_o be_v seclude_v of_o a_o trial_n by_o their_o peer_n only_o in_o these_o case_n of_o high_a treason_n and_o if_o other_o who_o be_v profess_v rebel_n and_o traitor_n murmur_v at_o it_o as_o none_o else_o will_v we_o need_v not_o much_o regard_n it_o nor_o prefer_v their_o pretend_a
