35._o this_o ordinance_n and_o act_n the_o king_n will_v to_o be_v observe_v from_o henceforth_o through_o his_o realm_n of_o england_n and_o ireland_n what_o think_v you_o of_o the_o statute_n make_v

the_o preamble_n be_v these_o be_v the_o thing_n which_o our_o lord_n the_o king_n the_o prelate_n lord_n and_o commons_o have_v ordain_v in_o this_o present_a parliament_n hold_v at_o westminster_n

merchandise_n may_v be_v carry_v into_o and_o bring_v out_o of_o ireland_n by_o which_o it_o appear_v that_o the_o parliament_n of_o england_n make_v law_n to_o regulate_v the_o trade_n of_o ireland_n in_o those_o early_a day_n and_o that_o the_o bill_n relate_v to_o the_o woollen_a manufacture_n now_o depend_v before_o the_o present_a parliament_n be_v not_o a_o modern_a instance_n of_o that_o

i_o make_v this_o observation_n that_o the_o preamble_n say_v these_o be_v to_o be_v hold_v and_o publish_v open_o through_o the_o realm_n and_o the_o 17_o and_o 18_o chapter_n show_v that_o ireland_n be_v part_n of_o that_o realm_n in_o the_o four_o of_o henry_n 5._o cap._n 6._o a_o act_n be_v make_v but_o be_v now_o ob_fw-la so_o i_o find_v nothing_o but_o its_o title_n in_o the_o statute_n book_n which_o be_v this_o if_o any_o archbishop_n bishop_n etc._n etc._n of_o ireland_n rebel_n to_o the_o king_n shall_v make_v collation_n of_o a_o benefice_n to_o any_o irishman_n or_o bring_v

by_o which_o it_o do_v appear_v that_o the_o parliament_n of_o england_n take_v notice_n there_o be_v a_o parliament_n in_o ireland_n and_o make_v law_n to_o bind_v that_o parliament_n all_o these_o statute_n bind_v ireland_n and_o doubtless_o many_o more_o there_o be_v have_v i_o time_n to_o look_v after_o they_o but_o i_o mention_v these_o because_o they_o come_v within_o the_o compass_n of_o your_o old_a precedent_n be_v before_o the_o second_o of_o henry_n 6._o but_o before_o i_o speak_v to_o your_o old_a precedent_n give_v i_o leave_v to_o mention_v one_o statute_n more_o viz._n 1_o hen._n 6._o cap._n 3._o which_o though_o i_o do_v not_o produce_v as_o a_o precedent_n bind_v ireland_n yet_o it_o will_v serve_v to_o show_v what_o opinion_n the_o parliament_n of_o england_n have_v of_o ireland_n in_o those_o day_n the_o word_n be_v these_o forasmuch_o as_o divers_a manslaughter_n murder_n etc._n etc._n and_o divers_a other_o offence_n now_o late_o have_v be_v do_v in_o divers_a

they_o they_o be_v easy_a to_o be_v understand_v by_o any_o english_a reader_n and_o this_o be_v a_o modern_a statute_n in_o respect_n to_o the_o time_n of_o henry_n ii_o when_o you_o say_v ireland_n be_v make_v a_o separate_a kingdom_n and_o settle_v by_o he_o on_o his_o son_n john_n in_o a_o parliament_n at_o oxon_n whereas_o this_o parliament_n call_v it_o a_o county_n well_o then_o let_v we_o see_v what_o you_o say_v against_o these_o ancient_a precedent_n you_o have_v produce_v before_o we_o come_v to_o the_o modern_a instance_n as_o you_o call_v they_o these_o statute_n you_o say_v pag._n 86._o especial_o the_o two_o first_o meaning_n statutum_n hiberniae_fw-la and_o ordinatio_fw-la pro_fw-la statu_fw-la hiberniae_fw-la be_v make_v for_o ireland_n as_o their_o title_n import_v have_v give_v occasion_n to_o think_v that_o the_o parliament_n of_o england_n have_v right_a to_o make_v law_n for_o ireland_n without_o the_o consent_n of_o their_o choose_a representative_n sure_o every_o body_n i_o think_v be_v of_o that_o judgement_n that_o have_v look_v into_o the_o matter_n no_o you_o dissent_v from_o it_o and_o for_o this_o give_v several_a reason_n the_o first_o be_v

all_o be_v well_o in_o ireland_n p._n 44._o you_o say_v that_o on_o the_o death_n of_o king_n richard_n i._o king_n john_n in_o the_o twelve_o year_n of_o his_o reign_n go_v again_o into_o ireland_n anno_fw-la 1210_o and_o then_o it_o be_v that_o mat._n paris_n say_v the_o 20_o reguli_fw-la come_v to_o he_o to_o dublin_n and_o do_v he_o homage_n p._n 45._o you_o say_v that_o henry_n iii_o come_v to_o the_o crown_n anno_fw-la 1216_o and_o the_o same_o year_n send_v over_o the_o charter_n from_o bristol_n the_o 12_o of_o november_n and_o in_o p._n 46._o you_o say_v he_o send_v they_o another_o in_o the_o february_n follow_v from_o gloucester_n p._n 52._o you_o say_v that_o henry_n iii_o in_o the_o twelve_o year_n of_o his_o reign_n send_v over_o a_o writ_n to_o hugo_n de_fw-fr burgh_n to_o summon_v the_o state_n of_o ireland_n in_o all_o this_o time_n we_o hear_v nothing_o of_o war_n tumult_n heat_n or_o rebellion_n but_o quite_o contrary_a for_o p._n 49_o and_o 50._o you_o set_v forth_o a_o writ_n which_o you_o have_v from_o mr._n petit_n or_o rather_o a_o letter_n write_v by_o king_n henry_n iii_n queen_n anno_fw-la 38._o of_o his_o reign_n wherein_o she_o desire_v his_o

quote_v you_o from_o your_o own_o book_n and_o now_o you_o tell_v we_o p._n 96._o that_o the_o people_n of_o ireland_n can_v not_o assemble_v with_o conveniency_n to_o make_v law_n at_o home_n by_o reason_n of_o heat_n of_o rebellion_n or_o confusion_n of_o time_n and_o that_o this_o cause_v they_o to_o come_v to_o england_n to_o do_v it_o as_o appear_v by_o the_o writ_n you_o mention_v p._n 95._o which_o be_v in_o the_o nine_o year_n of_o edward_n i._n who_o succeed_v his_o father_n henry_n iii_o really_n sir_n you_o have_v give_v i_o so_o much_o trouble_v to_o run_v over_o your_o book_n again_o to_o show_v how_o inconsistent_a you_o be_v in_o your_o discourse_n about_o this_o matter_n that_o i_o can_v almost_o be_v angry_a with_o you_o but_o i_o be_o willing_a to_o take_v this_o pain_n not_o to_o convince_v you_o that_o you_o be_v in_o a_o error_n i_o imagine_v that_o will_v be_v labour_n lose_v a_o gentleman_n of_o your_o part_n must_v needs_o know_v it_o already_o but_o to_o make_v it_o plain_a lest_o any_o body_n else_o shall_v be_v draw_v aside_o by_o what_o you_o write_v well_o then_o on_o the_o credit_n of_o this_o writ_n i_o will_v grant_v you_o that_o ireland_n come_v to_o england_n for_o law_n in_o the_o nine_o of_o edward_n i._o and_o then_o i_o hope_v you_o will_v not_o oppose_v this_o ancient_a precedent_n because_o it_o be_v of_o your_o own_o produce_v but_o to_o get_v clear_a of_o this_o you_o tell_v we_o p._n 96._o that_o these_o law_n be_v make_v by_o your_o own_o representative_n and_o to_o prove_v that_o this_o be_v so_o in_o the_o reign_n of_o edward_n iii_o for_o you_o say_v its_o plain_a it_o be_v so_o in_o edward_n i.'s_n time_n you_o tell_v we_o there_o be_v knight_n citizens_z and_o burgess_n elect_v in_o the_o shire_n city_n and_o

3._o memb._n 19_o on_o complaint_n to_o the_o king_n by_o john_n draper_n who_o be_v choose_v burgess_n of_o cork_n by_o writ_n and_o serve_v in_o the_o parliament_n of_o england_n and_o yet_o be_v

ireland_n be_v not_o subject_a to_o the_o legislative_a power_n of_o the_o parliament_n of_o england_n i_o think_v you_o have_v bring_v the_o matter_n home_o and_o have_v mistake_v the_o side_n for_o instead_o of_o prove_v that_o it_o be_v not_o you_o have_v prove_v positive_o that_o it_o be_v and_o particular_o that_o from_o the_o nine_o of_o edward_n the_o first_o to_o the_o fifty_o of_o edward_n the_o three_o the_o representative_n of_o ireland_n come_v over_o to_o sit_v in_o the_o parliament_n of_o england_n and_o how_o long_o before_o or_o how_o long_o after_o they_o do_v so_o i_o can_v tell_v the_o writ_n you_o mention_v of_o edward_n i._o have_v reference_n to_o statute_n make_v before_o that_o time_n at_o lincoln_n and_o york_n which_o i_o judge_v must_v be_v in_o the_o day_n of_o henry_n ii_o richard_n i._n or_o king_n john_n because_o i_o do_v not_o find_v that_o any_o parliament_n be_v hold_v in_o either_o of_o these_o place_n from_o the_o begin_n of_o our_o statute-book_n and_o then_o where_o be_v your_o separate_a kingdom_n of_o ireland_n under_o king_n john_n and_o why_o have_v you_o so_o often_o assert_v that_o there_o be_v never_o any_o law_n make_v in_o england_n to_o bind_v ireland_n till_o the_o modern_a instance_n you_o mention_n pray_v what_o mean_v all_o the_o clamour_n you_o have_v make_v against_o our_o late_a king_n and_o the_o parliament_n of_o england_n for_o infringe_v your_o liberty_n and_o break_v through_o the_o very_a design_n of_o settle_v community_n and_o put_v you_o in_o a_o worse_a condition_n than_o you_o be_v in_o the_o state_n of_o nature_n you_o be_v very_o much_o behold_v to_o the_o ingenious_a mr._n lock_v for_o the_o fineness_n of_o your_o argument_n about_o the_o state_n of_o conquest_n etc._n etc._n in_o the_o former_a part_n of_o your_o book_n which_o i_o do_v not_o at_o all_o blame_v you_o for_o because_o i_o think_v no_o man_n can_v handle_v a_o subject_a smooth_o whereon_o he_o have_v treat_v that_o do_v not_o follow_v his_o copy_n but_o i_o blame_v you_o for_o not_o apply_v those_o excellent_a argument_n more_o fit_o but_o to_o return_v to_o the_o matter_n p._n 58._o you_o confess_v there_o be_v no_o parliament_n in_o ireland_n before_o king_n henry_n iii.'s_n time_n and_o you_o have_v not_o any_o where_o show_v that_o it_o be_v settle_v there_o during_o his_o reign_n and_o now_o you_o acknowledge_v that_o ireland_n send_v representatives_n to_o sit_v in_o the_o parliament_n of_o england_n in_o the_o reign_v of_o edward_n i._n edw._n ii_o and_o edward_n iii_o his_o successor_n where_o law_n be_v make_v to_o bind_v it_o pray_v then_o why_o do_v you_o exclaim_v against_o their_o put_v this_o power_n in_o execution_n still_o to_o this_o you_o say_v p._n 97._o it_o must_v be_v allow_v that_o the_o people_n of_o ireland_n ought_v to_o have_v their_o representative_n in_o the_o parliament_n of_o england_n and_o this_o you_o believe_v they_o will_v be_v willing_a enough_o to_o

that_o great_a happiness_n you_o now_o so_o much_o prize_v to_o this_o you_o answer_v p._n 98._o this_o send_n of_o representative_n out_o of_o ireland_n to_o the_o parliament_n in_o england_n on_o some_o occasion_n be_v find_v in_o process_n of_o time_n to_o be_v very_o troublesome_a and_o inconvenient_a i_o can_v but_o observe_v what_o a_o hodgepodge_n you_o will_v make_v by_o the_o wrong_a
