wherein_o this_o statute_n be_v make_v so_o that_o my_o lord_n immediate_o before_o and_o at_o the_o time_n of_o the_o make_n of_o this_o statute_n there_o be_v war_n between_o those_o of_o the_o

but_o the_o irish_a enemy_n again_o the_o word_n of_o the_o statute_n be_v no_o captain_n shall_v assemble_v the_o people_n of_o the_o shire_n ground_n to_o conclude_v of_o peace_n or_o war_n be_v it_o to_o be_v presume_v that_o those_o of_o the_o shire_n ground_n will_v conclude_v of_o war_n against_o themselves_o nor_o say_v the_o statute_n shall_v carry_v those_o of_o the_o shire_n ground_n to_o do_v any_o act_n invasive_a by_o the_o construction_n which_o be_v make_v on_o the_o other_o side_n they_o must_v be_v carry_v to_o fight_v against_o themselves_o last_o the_o word_n be_v as_o captain_n none_o shall_v assume_v the_o name_n or_o authority_n of_o a_o captain_n or_o as_o a_o captain_n shall_v gather_v the_o people_n together_o or_o as_o a_o captain_n lead_v they_o the_o offence_n be_v not_o in_o the_o matter_n but_o in_o the_o manner_n if_o the_o act_n offensive_a be_v against_o the_o king_n good_a subject_n those_o that_o go_v under_o command_n be_v punishable_a as_o well_o as_o the_o commander_n but_o in_o respect_n the_o soldier_n know_v the_o service_n to_o be_v good_a in_o itself_o be_v against_o the_o enemy_n and_o that_o it_o be_v not_o for_o they_o to_o dispute_v the_o authority_n of_o their_o commander_n the_o penalty_n of_o a_o 100_o pound_n be_v lay_v only_o upon_o he_o that_o as_o captain_n shall_v assume_v this_o power_n without_o warrant_n the_o people_n command_v be_v not_o within_o the_o statute_n my_o lord_n the_o logic_n whereupon_o this_o argument_n have_v be_v frame_v stand_v thus_o because_o the_o statute_n of_o the_o eleven_o year_n of_o queen_n elizabeth_n inflict_v a_o penalty_n of_o a_o 100_o pound_n and_o no_o more_o upon_o any_o man_n that_o as_o a_o captain_n without_o warrant_n and_o upon_o his_o own_o head_n shall_v conclude_v of_o or_o make_v war_n against_o the_o king_n enemy_n therefore_o the_o statute_n of_o the_o 18._o year_n of_o henry_n the_o six_o be_v repeal_v which_o make_v it_o treason_n to_o lay_v soldier_n upon_o or_o to_o levy_v war_n against_o the_o king_n good_a people_n but_o my_o lord_n observation_n have_v be_v make_v upon_o other_o word_n of_o this_o statute_n that_o be_v that_o without_o licence_n of_o the_o deputy_n these_o thing_n can_v be_v do_v this_o show_v that_o the_o deputy_n be_v within_o none_o of_o the_o statute_n my_o lord_n this_o argument_n stand_v upon_o the_o same_o reason_n with_o the_o former_a because_o he_o have_v the_o order_n of_o the_o army_n of_o ireland_n for_o the_o defence_n of_o the_o people_n and_o may_v give_v warrant_n to_o the_o officer_n of_o the_o army_n upon_o eminent_a occasion_n of_o invasion_n to_o resist_v or_o prosecute_v the_o enemy_n because_o of_o the_o danger_n that_o else_o may_v ensue_v forthwith_o by_o stay_v for_o a_o warrant_n from_o his_o majesty_n out_o of_o england_n therefore_o it_o be_v no_o treason_n in_o the_o deputy_n to_o employ_v the_o army_n in_o ireland_n whensoever_o he_o please_v for_o the_o subversion_n of_o the_o king_n good_a people_n and_o of_o the_o law_n my_o lord_n the_o statute_n of_o the_o ten_o year_n of_o henry_n the_o seven_o the_o 17._o chapter_n touch_v upon_o for_o this_o purpose_n clear_v the_o business_n in_o both_o point_n for_o there_o it_o be_v declare_v that_o none_o ought_v to_o make_v war_n upon_o the_o irish_a rebel_n and_o enemy_n without_o warrant_n from_o the_o lieutenant_n the_o forfeiture_n a_o 100_o pound_n as_o here_o the_o statute_n be_v the_o same_o with_o this_o and_o may_v as_o well_o have_v be_v cite_v for_o repeal_n the_o statute_n of_o the_o eighteen_o year_n of_o henry_n the_o 6._o as_o this_o of_o the_o 11._o year_n of_o queen_n elizabeth_n but_o if_o this_o have_v be_v insist_v upon_o it_o will_v have_v expound_v the_o other_o two_o clear_a against_o he_o object_n my_o lord_n it_o have_v be_v further_o say_v although_o the_o statute_n be_v in_o force_n and_o there_o be_v a_o treason_n within_o it_o yet_o the_o parliament_n have_v no_o jurisdiction_n the_o treason_n be_v commit_v in_o ireland_n therefore_o not_o triable_a here_o answ_n my_o lord_n sir_n john_n perrot_n his_o predecessor_n in_o the_o 24._o year_n of_o queen_n

for_o so_o be_v the_o present_a question_n for_o the_o clear_n of_o this_o i_o shall_v propound_v two_o thing_n to_o your_o lordship_n consideration_n 1._o whether_o the_o rule_n for_o expound_v the_o
