the_o duke_z of_o buckingham_n speech_n in_o a_o late_a conference_n london_n print_v for_o m._n i._n 1668._o the_o duke_z of_o buckingham_n speech_n gentleman_n of_o the_o house_n of_o commons_o i_o be_o command_v by_o the_o house_n of_o peer_n to_o open_a to_o you_o the_o matter_n of_o this_o conference_n which_o be_v a_o task_n i_o can_v wish_v their_o lordship_n have_v be_v please_v to_o lay_v upon_o any_o body_n else_o both_o for_o their_o own_o sake_n and_o i_o have_v observe_v in_o that_o little_a experience_n i_o have_v make_v in_o the_o world_n there_o can_v be_v nothing_o of_o great_a difficulty_n then_o to_o unite_n man_n in_o their_o opinion_n who_o interest_n seem_v to_o disagree_v this_o gentleman_n i_o fear_v be_v at_o present_a our_o case_n but_o yet_o i_o hope_v when_o we_o have_v a_o little_a better_o consider_v of_o it_o we_o shall_v find_v that_o a_o great_a interest_n do_v oblige_v we_o at_o this_o time_n rather_o to_o join_v in_o the_o preservation_n of_o both_o our_o privilege_n then_o to_o differ_v about_o the_o violation_n of_o either_o we_o acknowledge_v it_o be_v our_o interest_n to_o defend_v the_o right_n of_o the_o commons_o for_o shall_v we_o suffer_v they_o to_o be_v oppress_v it_o will_v not_o be_v long_o before_o it_o may_v come_v to_o be_v our_o own_o case_n and_o i_o humble_o conceive_v it_o will_v also_o appear_v to_o be_v the_o interest_n of_o the_o commons_o to_o uphold_v the_o privilege_n of_o the_o lord_n that_o so_o we_o may_v be_v in_o a_o condition_n to_o stand_v by_o and_o support_v they_o all_o that_o their_o lordship_n desire_n of_o you_o upon_o this_o occasion_n be_v that_o you_o will_v proceed_v with_o they_o as_o usual_o friend_n do_v when_o they_o be_v in_o dispute_n one_o with_o another_o that_o you_o will_v not_o be_v impatient_a of_o hear_v argument_n urge_v against_o your_o opinion_n but_o examine_v the_o weight_n of_o what_o be_v say_v and_o then_o impartial_o consider_v which_o of_o we_o two_o be_v likely_a to_o be_v in_o the_o wrong_n if_o we_o be_v in_o the_o wrong_n we_o and_o our_o predecessor_n have_v be_v so_o for_o these_o many_o hundred_o of_o year_n and_o not_o only_o our_o predecessor_n but_o you_o too_o this_o be_v the_o first_o time_n that_o ever_o a_o appeal_n be_v make_v in_o point_n of_o judicature_n from_o the_o lord_n house_n to_o the_o house_n of_o commons_o nay_o those_o very_a commons_o which_o turn_v the_o lord_n out_o of_o this_o house_n though_o they_o take_v from_o they_o many_o other_o of_o their_o privilege_n yet_o leave_v they_o the_o constant_a practice_n of_o this_o till_o the_o very_a last_o day_n of_o their_o sit_v and_o this_o will_v be_v make_v appear_v by_o several_a precedent_n these_o noble_a lord_n will_v lay_v before_o you_o much_o better_a than_o i_o can_v pretend_v to_o do_v since_o this_o business_n have_v be_v in_o agitation_n their_o lordship_n have_v be_v a_o little_a more_o curious_a than_o ordinary_a to_o inform_v themselves_o of_o the_o true_a nature_n of_o these_o matter_n now_o in_o question_n before_o we_o which_o i_o shall_v endeavour_v to_o explain_v to_o you_o as_o far_o as_o my_o small_a ability_n and_o my_o aversion_n to_o hard_a word_n will_v give_v i_o leave_v for_o howsoever_o the_o law_n to_o make_v it_o a_o mystery_n and_o a_o trade_n may_v be_v wrap_v up_o in_o term_n of_o art_n yet_o it_o be_v found_v in_o reason_n and_o be_v obvious_a to_o common_a sense_n the_o power_n of_o judicature_n do_v natural_o descend_v and_o not_o ascend_v that_o be_v no_o inferior_a court_n can_v have_v any_o power_n which_o be_v not_o derive_v to_o it_o from_o some_o power_n above_o it_o the_o king_n be_v by_o the_o law_n of_o this_o land_n supreme_a judge_n in_o all_o cause_n ecclesiastical_a and_o civil_a and_o so_o there_o be_v no_o court_n high_a or_o low_a can_v act_n but_o in_o subordination_n to_o he_o and_o though_o they_o do_v not_o all_o issue_n out_o their_o writ_n in_o the_o king_n name_n yet_o they_o can_v issue_v out_o none_o but_o by_o virtue_n of_o some_o power_n they_o have_v receive_v from_o he_o now_o every_o particular_a court_n have_v such_o particular_a power_n as_o the_o king_n have_v give_v it_o and_o for_o that_o reason_n have_v its_o bound_n but_o the_o high_a court_n in_o which_o the_o king_n can_v possible_o sit_v that_o be_v his_o supreme_a court_n of_o lord_n in_o parliament_n have_v in_o it_o all_o his_o judicial_a power_n and_o consequent_o no_o bound_n i_o mean_v no_o bound_n of_o jurisdiction_n for_o the_o high_a court_n be_v to_o govern_v according_a to_o the_o law_n as_o well_o as_o the_o low_a i_o suppose_v none_o will_v make_v a_o question_n but_o that_o every_o man_n and_o every_o cause_n be_v to_o be_v try_v according_a to_o magna_fw-la charta_fw-la that_o be_v by_o peer_n or_o according_a to_o the_o law_n of_o the_o land_n and_o he_o that_o be_v try_v by_o the_o ecclesiastical_a court_n the_o court_n of_o admiralty_n or_o the_o high_a court_n of_o lord_n in_o parliament_n be_v try_v as_o much_o by_o the_o law_n of_o the_o land_n as_o he_o that_o be_v try_v by_o the_o king_n bench_n or_o common-plea_n when_o these_o inferior_a court_n hap_n to_o wrangle_v among_o themselves_o which_o they_o must_v often_o do_v by_o reason_n of_o their_o be_v bind_v up_o to_o particular_a cause_n and_o their_o have_v all_o equal_o and_o earnest_o a_o desire_n to_o try_v all_o cause_n themselves_o than_o the_o supreme_a court_n be_v force_v to_o hear_v their_o complaint_n because_o there_o be_v no_o other_o way_n of_o decide_v they_o and_o this_o under_o favour_n be_v a_o original_a cause_n of_o court_n though_o not_o of_o man_n now_o these_o original_a cause_n of_o court_n must_v also_o of_o necessity_n induce_v man_n for_o save_v of_o charge_n and_o dispatch_v sake_n to_o bring_v their_o cause_n original_o before_o the_o supreme_a court_n but_o then_o the_o court_n be_v not_o oblige_v to_o receive_v they_o but_o proceed_v by_o rule_n of_o prudence_n in_o either_o retain_v or_o dismiss_v they_o as_o they_o think_v fit_a this_o be_v under_o favour_n the_o sum_n of_o all_o that_o your_o precedent_n can_v show_v we_o which_o be_v nothing_o but_o what_o we_o practise_v every_o day_n that_o be_v that_o very_o often_o because_o we_o will_v not_o be_v molest_v with_o hear_v too_o many_o particular_a cause_n we_o refer_v they_o back_o to_o other_o court_n and_o all_o the_o argument_n you_o can_v possible_o draw_v from_o hence_o will_v not_o in_o any_o kind_n lessen_v our_o power_n but_o only_o show_v a_o unwillingness_n we_o have_v to_o trouble_v ourselves_o often_o with_o matter_n of_o this_o nature_n nor_o will_v this_o appear_v strange_a if_o you_o consider_v the_o constitution_n of_o our_o house_n it_o be_v make_v up_o partly_o of_o such_o who_o employment_n will_v not_o give_v they_o leisure_n to_o attend_v the_o hear_n of_o private_a cause_n and_o entire_o of_o those_o that_o can_v receive_v no_o profit_n by_o it_o and_o the_o truth_n be_v the_o dispute_n at_o present_a be_v not_o between_o the_o house_n of_o lord_n and_o the_o house_n of_o commons_o but_o between_o we_o and_o westminster-hall_n for_o as_o we_o desire_v to_o have_v few_o or_o no_o cause_n bring_v before_o we_o because_o we_o get_v nothing_o by_o they_o so_o they_o desire_v to_o have_v all_o cause_n bring_v before_o they_o for_o a_o reason_n a_o little_a of_o the_o contrary_a nature_n for_o this_o very_a reason_n it_o be_v their_o business_n to_o invent_v new_a way_n of_o draw_v cause_n to_o their_o court_n which_o ought_v not_o to_o be_v plead_v there_o as_o for_o example_n this_o very_a cause_n of_o skinner_n that_o be_v now_o before_o we_o and_o i_o do_v not_o speak_v this_o by_o rote_n for_o i_o have_v the_o opinion_n of_o a_o reverend_a judge_n in_o the_o case_n who_o inform_v we_o of_o it_o the_o other_o day_n in_o the_o house_n they_o have_v no_o way_n of_o bring_v this_o cause_n into_o westminster-hall_n but_o by_o this_o form_n the_o reason_n and_o sense_n of_o which_o i_o leave_v to_o you_o to_o judge_n of_o the_o form_n be_v this_o that_o in_o stead_n of_o speak_v as_o we_o ordinary_a man_n do_v that_o have_v no_o art_n that_o mr._n skinner_n lose_v a_o ship_n in_o the_o east_n indies_n to_o bring_v this_o into_o their_o court_n they_o must_v say_v that_o mr._n skinner_n lose_v a_o ship_n in_o the_o east-indies_n in_o the_o parish_n of_o islington_n in_o the_o county_n of_o middlesex_n now_o some_o of_o we_o lord_n that_o do_v not_o understand_v the_o refineness_n of_o this_o stile_n begin_v to_o examine_v what_o the_o reason_n of_o this_o shall_v be_v and_o so_o we_o find_v that_o since_o they_o ought_v not_o by_o right_a to_o try_v such_o cause_n they_o be_v resolve_v to_o make_v bold_a not_o only_o with_o our_o privilege_n but_o the_o very_a sense_n and_o language_n of_o the_o whole_a nation_n this_o i_o think_v fit_a to_o mention_v only_o to_o let_v you_o see_v that_o this_o whole_a cause_n as_o well_o as_o many_o other_o can_v not_o be_v try_v proper_o in_o any_o place_n but_o at_o our_o bar_n except_o mr._n skinner_n will_v have_v take_v a_o fancy_n to_o try_v the_o right_n of_o jurisdiction_n between_o westminster-hall_n and_o the_o court_n of_o admirallity_n instead_o of_o seek_v relief_n for_o the_o injury_n he_o have_v receive_v in_o the_o place_n only_o where_o it_o be_v to_o be_v give_v he_o one_o thing_n i_o hear_v be_v much_o insist_v upon_o which_o be_v the_o trial_n without_o juries_n to_o which_o i_o can_v answer_v that_o such_o trial_n be_v allow_v of_o in_o the_o chancery_n and_o other_o court_n and_o that_o when_o there_o be_v occasion_n for_o they_o we_o make_v use_v of_o juries_n too_o both_o by_o direct_v they_o in_o the_o kings-bench_n and_o have_v they_o bring_v up_o to_o our_o barr._n but_o i_o shall_v only_o crave_v leave_n to_o put_v you_o in_o mind_n that_o if_o you_o do_v not_o allow_v we_o in_o some_o case_n to_o try_v man_n without_o juries_n you_o will_v then_o absolute_o take_v away_o the_o use_n of_o impeachment_n which_o i_o humble_o conceive_v you_o will_v not_o think_v proper_a to_o have_v do_v at_o this_o time_n finis_fw-la
