france_n and_o scotland_n can_v not_o keep_v in_o quiet_a his_o county_n of_o ireland_n as_o it_o be_v call_v in_o the_o statute_n 1_o hen._n 6._o quote_v before_o and_o now_o you_o tell_v we_o the_o reason_n why_o it_o be_v then_o call_v so_o viz._n because_o they_o former_o send_v representative_n to_o serve_v in_o parliament_n here_o if_o this_o be_v not_o the_o reason_n why_o they_o send_v they_o only_o on_o some_o occasion_n and_o you_o give_v no_o other_o then_o i_o be_o apt_a to_o think_v either_o that_o they_o send_v none_o at_o all_o or_o that_o they_o send_v they_o to_o every_o parliament_n for_o i_o can_v believe_v that_o law_n be_v make_v in_o england_n and_o in_o ireland_n at_o the_o same_o time_n by_o two_o parliament_n that_o stand_v on_o equal_a foot_n one_o with_o the_o other_o this_o be_v not_o probable_a for_o what_o if_o their_o law_n shall_v clash_v the_o parliament_n of_o england_n will_v not_o submit_v to_o have_v their_o law_n repeal_v by_o the_o parliament_n of_o ireland_n that_o be_v unjust_a because_o the_o same_o power_n that_o make_v they_o be_v not_o at_o the_o repeal_n of_o they_o ireland_n have_v representative_n in_o the_o parliament_n of_o england_n but_o england_n have_v not_o in_o the_o parliament_n of_o ireland_n nor_o be_v it_o probable_a that_o the_o parliament_n of_o ireland_n will_v have_v stoop_v to_o the_o parliament_n of_o england_n if_o they_o have_v any_o colourable_a argument_n of_o their_o side_n for_o you_o see_v how_o loath_a they_o be_v to_o do_v it_o now_o though_o they_o have_v none_o at_o all_o at_o least_o you_o who_o have_v undertake_v this_o contest_v in_o their_o favour_n have_v produce_v none_o but_o you_o have_v fair_o quit_v the_o field_n and_o confess_v that_o ireland_n do_v former_o for_o 100_o year_n together_o send_v their_o representative_n to_o the_o parliament_n of_o england_n well_o then_o to_o return_v to_o this_o happiness_n why_o do_v not_o ireland_n continue_v it_o you_o tell_v we_o pag._n 98._o they_o find_v it_o very_o troublesome_a and_o inconvenient_a what_o make_v you_o then_o to_o desire_v it_o again_o i_o do_v not_o see_v how_o it_o will_v be_v less_o troublesome_a now_o and_o i_o assure_v you_o it_o will_v be_v attend_v with_o as_o many_o inconvenience_n if_o not_o to_o you_o in_o ireland_n yet_o to_o we_o in_o england_n and_o i_o hope_v you_o will_v consider_v your_o neighbour_n inconvenience_n as_o well_o as_o your_o own_o but_o as_o inconvenient_a and_o troublesome_a as_o it_o be_v you_o be_v willing_a to_o have_v this_o happiness_n restore_v here_o the_o nature_n of_o the_o argument_n be_v alter_v for_o now_o it_o be_v not_o whether_o the_o parliament_n of_o england_n have_v power_n to_o make_v law_n to_o bind_v ireland_n and_o whether_o what_o they_o have_v do_v in_o that_o matter_n for_o 500_o year_n past_a have_v be_v do_v de_fw-fr jure_fw-la but_o whether_o ireland_n shall_v be_v restore_v to_o its_o former_a privilege_n of_o send_v representative_n to_o sit_v in_o the_o parliament_n of_o england_n i_o confess_v i_o have_v no_o authority_n to_o treat_v with_o you_o about_o this_o affair_n it_o be_v reserve_v for_o a_o high_a power_n to_o determine_v but_o suppose_v you_o be_v deny_v to_o have_v this_o happiness_n restore_v the_o question_n than_o will_v be_v whether_o you_o have_v any_o wrong_n do_v you_o if_o i_o be_v to_o be_v judge_n i_o shall_v give_v it_o against_o you_o for_o see_v you_o have_v give_v up_o your_o right_n so_o many_o hundred_o year_n since_o and_o submit_v yourselves_o to_o your_o english_a representative_n without_o send_v any_o from_o ireland_n i_o do_v not_o see_v how_o you_o can_v insist_v on_o it_o now_o and_o in_o this_o i_o believe_v you_o have_v neighbour_n fair_a for_o i_o doubt_v not_o there_o be_v many_o corporation_n both_o in_o england_n and_o wales_n who_o either_o do_v send_v more_o member_n to_o parliament_n in_o former_a day_n or_o may_v have_v do_v it_o have_v not_o the_o charge_n or_o trouble_v put_v they_o on_o seek_v to_o be_v excuse_v particular_o i_o observe_v a_o clause_n to_o this_o purpose_n in_o the_o charter_n grant_v to_o the_o city_n of_o bristol_n by_o king_n edward_n iii_o when_o he_o make_v it_o a_o county_n whereof_o i_o have_v before_o i_o a_o english_a copy_n which_o run_v thus_o and_o moreover_o we_o have_v grant_v for_o we_o and_o our_o heir_n to_o the_o say_a burgess_n and_o their_o heir_n and_o successor_n for_o ever_o that_o the_o say_a town_n of_o bristol_n by_o any_o mean_n shall_v not_o be_v charge_v to_o send_v to_o the_o parliament_n of_o we_o or_o our_o heir_n but_o only_o two_o man_n as_o heretofore_o have_v be_v accustom_v the_o which_o two_o man_n as_o well_o knight_n of_o the_o county_n of_o bristol_n as_o burgess_n of_o the_o town_n and_o borough_n of_o bristol_n for_o the_o same_o town_n and_o borough_n shall_v be_v bind_v to_o make_v answer_n which_o show_v that_o this_o be_v then_o grant_v as_o a_o favour_n to_o that_o city_n at_o their_o request_n to_o avoid_v the_o trouble_n and_o charge_n of_o send_v two_o knight_n as_o well_o as_o two_o burgess_n to_o represent_v they_o in_o parliament_n which_o if_o they_o will_v now_o retrieve_v they_o can_v and_o this_o be_v about_o the_o same_o time_n that_o you_o say_v ireland_n be_v discourage_v by_o the_o trouble_n and_o inconvenience_n that_o attend_v it_o forbear_v to_o send_v representative_n to_o sit_v in_o parliament_n in_o england_n but_o whatever_o be_v the_o reason_n that_o make_v they_o do_v this_o i_o can_v agree_v with_o what_o you_o say_v pag._n 98._o this_o we_o may_v presume_v be_v the_o reason_n that_o afterward_o when_o time_n be_v more_o settle_v we_o fall_v again_o into_o our_o old_a track_n and_o regular_a course_n of_o parliament_n in_o our_o own_o country_n pray_v what_o regular_a course_n of_o parliament_n do_v you_o mean_v you_o have_v not_o yet_o prove_v that_o you_o ever_o have_v any_o but_o rather_o confess_v the_o contrary_a you_o say_v you_o send_v representative_n to_o sit_v in_o the_o parliament_n of_o england_n but_o what_o then_o do_v it_o therefore_o follow_v that_o you_o may_v leave_v that_o off_o and_o set_v up_o parliament_n of_o your_o own_o at_o your_o pleasure_n no_o sure_o you_o may_v quit_v your_o privilege_n of_o be_v part_n of_o the_o parliament_n of_o england_n but_o it_o do_v not_o therefore_o follow_v that_o you_o have_v power_n to_o establish_v a_o parliament_n in_o ireland_n independent_a on_o the_o parliament_n of_o england_n no_o more_o than_o if_o the_o people_n of_o cornwall_n be_v unwilling_a to_o put_v themselves_o to_o the_o trouble_n of_o attend_v the_o parliament_n at_o westminster_n shall_v therefore_o without_o far_a warrant_n erect_v one_o of_o their_o own_o near_a home_n and_o then_o expect_v it_o shall_v be_v clothe_v with_o full_a power_n and_o be_v superior_a to_o that_o of_o westminster_n with_o relation_n to_o what_o concern_v the_o county_n of_o cornwall_n for_o to_o talk_v of_o your_o old_a track_n and_o regular_n course_n of_o parliament_n after_o what_o you_o have_v say_v on_o this_o matter_n be_v a_o jest_n and_o deserve_v no_o answer_n we_o be_v now_o come_v to_o your_o five_o particular_a pag._n 115._o the_o opinion_n of_o the_o learned_a in_o the_o law_n relate_v to_o this_o

blame_v he_o for_o his_o unfaithful_a break_a citation_n which_o i_o agree_v with_o you_o to_o be_v a_o ill_a way_n of_o deceive_v a_o reader_n into_o a_o good_a opinion_n of_o a_o argument_n but_o must_v tell_v you_o that_o you_o have_v be_v too_o frequent_o guilty_a of_o the_o same_o fault_n in_o this_o book_n yet_o i_o can_v see_v how_o the_o lord_n chief_a justice_n cook_n have_v be_v unfaithful_a in_o this_o his_o citation_n for_o i_o take_v the_o whole_a sense_n of_o the_o transcript_n you_o mention_v to_o be_v include_v therein_o you_o say_v that_o after_o he_o have_v declare_v
