A26165	An answer to Mr. Molyneux his Case of Ireland's being bound by acts of Parliament in England, stated, and his dangerous notion of Ireland's being under no subordination to the parliamentary authority of England refuted, by reasoning from his own arguments and authorities.

abate_v any_o thing_n of_o that_o right_n which_o england_n have_v before_o but_o it_o be_v plain_a that_o if_o they_o do_v any_o such_o thing_n they_o do_v but_o think_v that_o english_a act_n of_o

and_o do_v and_o even_o in_o the_o second_o year_n of_o this_o king_n henry_n the_o six_o as_o he_o quote_v it_o the_o staple_n act_n express_o name_v ireland_n be_v make_v sure_o the_o parliament_n of_o england_n must_v consist_v of_o much_o more_o considerable_a man_n than_o the_o parliament_n of_o ireland_n in_o those_o day_n can_v and_o they_o be_v most_o likely_a to_o know_v best_a what_o they_o have_v to_o do_v and_o it_o seem_v as_o if_o the_o people_n of_o ireland_n themselves_o have_v no_o opinion_n of_o the_o validity_n of_o these_o invalidating_a act_n in_o mr._n molyneux_n

since_o the_o generality_n of_o the_o english_a statute_n be_v receive_v in_o ireland_n and_o therefore_o the_o parliament_n of_o ireland_n for_o the_o clear_n any_o such_o difficulty_n for_o the_o future_a may_v possible_o declare_v that_o such_o statute_n be_v not_o of_o force_n there_o till_o they_o have_v be_v establish_v by_o they_o and_o i_o may_v easy_o grant_v he_o that_o the_o end_n and_o intent_n of_o the_o institution_n of_o a_o parliament_n in_o ireland_n be_v that_o as_o they_o be_v separate_v from_o england_n by_o the_o sea_n they_o shall_v have_v authority_n to_o make_v and_o adapt_v law_n among_o themselves_o suitable_a to_o their_o own_o circumstance_n and_o fit_a for_o the_o well-ordering_a of_o the_o affair_n of_o that_o kingdom_n and_o therefore_o the_o parliament_n of_o england_n do_v not_o think_v fit_a to_o impose_v upon_o they_o such_o law_n as_o be_v from_o time_n to_o time_n enact_v suitable_a to_o the_o occasion_n of_o the_o realm_n of_o england_n but_o leave_v the_o people_n of_o ireland_n at_o liberty_n to_o choose_v or_o refuse_v such_o as_o they_o think_v fit_a and_o from_o this_o reason_n it_o must_v be_v that_o so_o many_o of_o the_o english_a statute_n as_o he_o instance_n have_v be_v introduce_v into_o ireland_n by_o pass_v they_o into_o law_n in_o their_o own_o parliament_n the_o generous_a english_a constitution_n do_v

this_o be_v the_o great_a charter_n of_o englishman_n and_o because_o it_o be_v think_v that_o the_o people_n of_o ireland_n can_v not_o convenient_o send_v representative_n to_o the_o parliament_n in_o englaand_n they_o be_v therefore_o authorize_v to_o hold_v parliament_n among_o themselves_o for_o the_o transact_n such_o affair_n we_o allow_v it_o to_o all_o our_o colony_n in_o america_n
