it_o be_v much_o more_o to_o take_v it_o from_o court_n parliament_n former_o upon_o any_o extraordinary_a matter_n stay_v and_o send_v their_o member_n to_o consult_v with_o those_o who_o send_v

he_o can_v in_o the_o post_n he_o be_v in_o but_o to_o keep_v close_o to_o this_o question_n it_o be_v allow_v by_o law_n that_o a_o exclusion_n of_o the_o d._n from_o the_o crown_n may_v be_v the_o next_o thing_n be_v to_o consider_v the_o expedient_a of_o the_o regency_n propose_v the_o same_o authority_n that_o can_v make_v a_o descent_n of_o the_o crown_n may_v mod_a fie_o it_o he_o argue_v to_o show_v that_o the_o regency_n will_v make_v the_o duke_n insignificant_a in_o the_o administration_n of_o the_o government_n now_o the_o question_n be_v which_o be_v the_o most_o parcticable_a we_o lawyer_n be_v apt_a to_o go_v on_o the_o strong_a side_n and_o to_o call_v every_o thing_n prerogative_n i_o will_v put_v you_o a_o case_n in_o king_n james_n time_n the_o sheriff_n of_o there_o be_v a_o exceptation_n in_o his_o commission_n that_o he_o shall_v not_o keep_v the_o county_n court_n of_o but_o shall_v have_v all_o other_o exercise_n of_o his_o office_n but_o the_o judge_n

to_o satisfy_v the_o people_n and_o not_o let_v they_o have_v the_o thing_n shall_v this_o of_o the_o expedient_a be_v a_o act_n it_o be_v nonsense_n and_o may_v be_v say_v hereafter_o the_o house_n

i_o have_v urge_v this_o to_o show_v that_o this_o be_v no_o expedient_a it_o blear_v only_o people_n eye_n and_o be_v no_o solid_a security_n to_o say_v the_o duke_n value_v his_o estate_n which_o

last_o parliament_n i_o do_v see_v by_o the_o management_n of_o the_o papist_n and_o the_o minister_n that_o without_o this_o bill_n of_o exclusion_n our_o ruin_n be_v irresistible_a if_o the_o duke_n

there_o be_v no_o case_n of_o conscience_n lie_v upon_o we_o in_o his_o exclusion_n i_o will_v only_o make_v this_o observation_n of_o the_o king_n speech_n in_o relation_n to_o this_o question_n and_o if_o it_o be_v practicable_a the_o rid_v of_o ourselves_o quite_o of_o that_o party_n etc._n etc._n and_o not_o to_o lay_v so_o much_o weight_n upon_o one_o expedient_a as_o to_o determine_v all_o other_o be_v ineffectual_a vide_fw-la speech_n the_o two_o main_a point_n it_o seem_v the_o king_n doubt_v himself_o and_o all_o this_o deliver_v by_o the_o king_n in_o great_a wisdom_n be_v clip_v off_o to_o this_o expedient_a of_o the_o regency_n you_o see_v now_o we_o come_v to_o expedient_n the_o minister_n have_v have_v two_o parliament_n to_o consider_v it_o and_o now_o we_o be_v come_v to_o this_o expedient_a of_o the_o regency_n i_o find_v no_o security_n in_o law_n by_o this_o expedient_a you_o take_v away_o nothing_o by_o this_o expedient_a and_o therefore_o i_o hope_v the_o bill_n of_o exclusion_n will_v pass_v i_o hope_v that_o reason_n and_o not_o great_a office_n will_v take_v man_n off_o from_o their_o nemine_fw-la contradicente_fw-la i_o speak_v this_o as_o

there_o be_v a_o aliquid_fw-la latet_fw-la if_o the_o d._n be_v not_o set_v aside_o i_o be_o sure_a the_o government_n will_v be_v and_o therefore_o i_o be_o for_o the_o bill_n of_o exclusion_n etc._n etc._n sir_n t._n m._n i_o know_v not_o how_o far_o sir_n fr._n w._n argument_n may_v be_v press_v what_o bill_n soever_o we_o may_v have_v pray_v let_v we_o have_v the_o law_n on_o our_o side_n that_o if_o the_o king_n shall_v die_v we_o may_v know_v whether_o we_o be_v to_o go_v i_o think_v the_o k._n s_o '_o speech_n be_v pen_v as_o it_o ought_v to_o be_v pen_v and_o shall_v a_o king_n speak_v positive_o to_o what_o law_n he_o will_v have_v we_o be_v a_o irish_a parliament_n and_o not_o a_o english_a but_o the_o king_n word_n be_v tender_a word_n the_o thing_n lie_v fair_o before_o you_o if_o any_o expedient_a can_v be_v think_v of_o not_o to_o destroy_v the_o monarchy_n and_o if_o the_o next_o present_v be_v not_o the_o best_a not_o to_o refuse_v the_o next_o e._n v._n you_o

whole_a office_n of_o a_o king_n to_o appoint_v judge_n call_v parliament_n etc._n etc._n this_o power_n they_o will_v take_v away_o from_o the_o duke_n but_o if_o by_o law_n they_o will_v reserve_v the_o name_n of_o king_n to_o the_o duke_n it_o be_v to_o bring_v a_o war_n upon_o we_o and_o to_o bring_v the_o duke_n in_o by_o force_n this_o regency_n must_v he_o support_v by_o war_n as_o well_o as_o the_o bill_n of_o exclusion_n by_o the_o 13_o eliz._n the_o crown_n be_v not_o alienable_a by_o the_o king_n but_o may_v be_v alienate_v by_o king_n lord_n and_o commons_o and_o when_o that_o

though_o we_o have_v be_v fright_v out_o from_o that_o bill_n by_o prorogation_n and_o dissolution_n yet_o it_o will_v not_o frighten_v they_o who_o reason_n go_v along_o with_o it_o and_o i_o be_o for_o that_o bill_n because_o all_o man_n be_v for_o it_o and_o have_v send_v up_o the_o same_o parliament_n again_o that_o past_o it_o but_o if_o you_o lead_v people_n into_o uncertainty_n in_o the_o
