a_o speech_n speak_v by_o sir_n simonds_n d'ewe_n so_o near_o as_o it_o can_v be_v collect_v together_o touch_v the_o privilege_n of_o parliament_n in_o cause_n criminal_a and_o civil_a at_o a_o committee_n of_o the_o house_n of_o commons_o in_o the_o guild-hall_n in_o london_n on_o the_o six_o day_n of_o january_n 1641._o sir_n i_o perceive_v that_o the_o main_a doubt_n upon_o the_o late_a question_n of_o some_o of_o the_o member_n of_o the_o house_n of_o commons_o as_o wither_v or_o no_o there_o be_v any_o privilege_n of_o parliament_n in_o matter_n of_o *_o 27._o treason_n or_o other_o capital_a offence_n in_o which_o i_o can_v deny_v but_o that_o there_o be_v a_o common_a say_n and_o yet_o not_o more_o common_a than_o erroneous_a that_o privilege_n of_o parliament_n do_v not_o extend_v to_o felony_n and_o treason_n for_o there_o be_v a_o double_a privilege_n of_o parliament_n the_o one_o final_a and_o the_o other_o temporary_a our_o final_a privilege_n extend_v to_o all_o civil_a cause_n and_o suit_n in_o law_n and_o that_o continue_v during_o the_o parliament_n the_o other_o privilege_n that_o be_v temporary_a extend_v to_o all_o capital_a cause_n as_o treason_n or_o the_o like_a in_o which_o the_o person_n and_o good_n of_o the_o member_n of_o both_o house_n be_v free_v from_o seizure_n till_o the_o say_a house_n be_v first_o satisfy_v of_o their_o crime_n and_o so_o do_v deliver_v their_o body_n up_o to_o be_v commit_v to_o safe_a custody_n and_o the_o reason_n of_o it_o be_v evident_a because_o their_o crime_n must_v either_o be_v commit_v within_o the_o same_o house_n or_o without_o they_o as_o for_o example_n if_o any_o member_n of_o the_o house_n of_o commons_o be_v accuse_v for_o treasonable_a action_n or_o word_n commit_v or_o speak_v within_o the_o wall_n of_o the_o same_o house_n then_o there_o be_v a_o necessity_n that_o not_o only_o the_o matter_n of_o fact_n but_o the_o matter_n of_o crime_n also_o must_v be_v adjudge_v by_o that_o house_n for_o it_o can_v appear_v to_o no_o other_o court_n what_o be_v there_o do_v in_o respect_n that_o it_o be_v the_o high_a treachery_n and_o breach_n of_o privilege_n for_o any_o member_n of_o that_o house_n to_o witness_v or_o reveal_v what_o be_v there_o do_v or_o speak_v without_o the_o leave_n and_o direction_n of_o the_o same_o house_n and_o if_o it_o be_v for_o treason_n commit_v out_o of_o the_o house_n yet_o still_o the_o house_n must_v be_v first_o satisfy_v with_o the_o matter_n of_o fact_n before_o they_o part_v with_o their_o member_n for_o else_o all_o privilege_n of_o parliament_n must_v of_o necessity_n be_v destroy_v and_o by_o the_o same_o reason_n that_o they_o accuse_v one_o of_o the_o say_a member_n they_o may_v accuse_v forty_o or_o fifty_o upon_o imaginary_a and_o false_a treason_n and_o so_o commit_v they_o to_o custody_n and_o deprive_v the_o house_n of_o their_o member_n whereas_o on_o the_o contra●y_n side_n the_o house_n of_o commons_o have_v ever_o be_v so_o just_a as_o to_o part_v with_o such_o member_n when_o they_o have_v be_v discover_v as_o in_o the_o parliament_n de_fw-la anno_fw-la 27._o of_o queen_n elizabeth_n
