be_v sufficient_a to_o stop_v here_o for_o the_o reason_n above_o allege_a however_o i_o shall_v venture_v to_o come_v down_o lower_v and_o to_o inquire_v into_o the_o modern_a precedent_n of_o english_a act_n of_o parliament_n allege_v against_o we_o but_o still_o with_o this_o observation_n that_o it_o be_v these_o we_o complain_v against_o as_o innovation_n and_o therefore_o they_o ought_v not_o to_o be_v bring_v in_o argument_n against_o we_o i_o do_v therefore_o again_o assert_v that_o before_o the_o year_n 1641._o there_o be_v no_o statute_n make_v in_o england_n introductory_n of_o a_o new_a law_n that_o interfere_v with_o the_o right_n which_o the_o people_n of_o ireland_n have_v to_o make_v law_n for_o themselves_o except_o only_o those_o which_o we_o

since_o that_o in_o king_n charles_n ii_o and_o again_o very_o late_o in_o king_n william_n reign_n some_o law_n have_v be_v make_v in_o england_n to_o be_v of_o force_n in_o ireland_n but_o how_o this_o come_v to_o pass_v we_o shall_v now_o inquire_v in_o the_o 17_o year_n of_o k._n charles_n i._n 1641._o which_o be_v in_o the_o year_n 1642._o there_o be_v three_o or_o four_o act_n of_o

23d_o of_o october_n 1641_o the_o title_n of_o these_o act_n we_o have_v in_o pulton_n collection_n of_o statute_n but_o with_o this_o remark_n that_o they_o be_v make_v of_o no_o force_n by_o the_o

by_o the_o legal_a representative_n of_o the_o people_n shall_v take_v place_n of_o those_o make_v in_o another_o kingdom_n but_o however_o it_o will_v be_v say_v that_o by_o those_o act_n it_o be_v

what_o be_v do_v for_o ireland_n time_n in_o the_o parliament_n of_o england_n in_o cromwel_n time_n beside_o the_o confusion_n and_o irregularity_n of_o all_o proceed_v in_o those_o day_n which_o
