but_o as_o one_o entire_a because_o i_o hold_v no_o other_o difference_n between_o imprisonment_n and_o confinement_n then_o only_o this_o that_o one_o have_v a_o less_o and_o straight_a the_o other_o a_o great_a and_o large_a prison_n and_o this_o word_n confinement_n not_o be_v to_o be_v find_v in_o any_o one_o case_n of_o our_o law_n if_o therefore_o it_o be_v become_v the_o language_n of_o state_n it_o be_v too_o difficult_a for_o i_o to_o define_v to_o proceed_v therefore_o in_o maintenance_n of_o my_o first_o reason_n i_o find_v our_o law_n do_v so_o much_o favour_v the_o subject_n liberty_n of_o his_o person_n that_o the_o body_n of_o a_o man_n be_v not_o liable_a to_o be_v arrest_v or_o imprison_v for_o any_o other_o cause_n at_o the_o common_a law_n but_o for_o force_n and_o

how_o much_o the_o common_a law_n favour_v the_o liberty_n of_o the_o subject_a and_o protect_v his_o body_n from_o imprisonment_n i_o will_v enforce_v the_o reason_n further_o by_o a_o rule_n in_o
