meaning_n and_o so_o much_o in_o answer_n to_o this_o grand_a objection_n wherein_o i_o have_v be_v over_o tedious_a but_o shall_v recompense_v it_o with_o brevity_n in_o the_o remainder_n the_o

heretofore_o accustom_v from_o whence_o i_o shall_v observe_v these_o five_o particular_n first_o that_o treason_n commit_v by_o english_a peer_n in_o foreign_a part_n be_v tryable_a here_o in_o

even_o by_o irish_a peer_n be_v triable_a in_o england_n by_o this_o act_n else_o irish_a peer_n shall_v be_v quite_o out_o of_o this_o act_n and_o in_o better_a condition_n than_o english_a or_o any_o irish_a commoner_n who_o be_v clear_o adjudge_v within_o it_o 2_o that_o trial_n by_o peer_n be_v save_v by_o this_o proviso_n only_o to_o the_o peer_n of_o this_o realm_n which_o both_o in_o the_o prologue_n and_o body_n of_o this_o act_n be_v express_o style_v this_o realm_n of_o england_n but_o the_o peer_n of_o ireland_n be_v no_o *_o 841._o peer_n at_o all_o of_o this_o realm_n of_o

their_o peer_n and_o this_o statute_n prescribe_v a_o new_a way_n of_o trial_n for_o foreign_a treason_n not_o triable_a here_o by_o peer_n before_o have_v exclude_v all_o english_a peer_n from_o

this_o law_n do_v save_o the_o trial_n by_o peer_n to_o peer_n of_o this_o realm_n only_o and_o to_o no_o other_o which_o as_o some_o conceive_a be_v not_o save_v to_o they_o in_o case_n of_o

and_o the_o common_a law_n itself_o they_o ought_v to_o be_v try_v only_o by_o their_o peer_n within_o all_o county_n and_o place_n of_o the_o realm_n of_o england_n but-irish_a scotish_a and_o foreign_a peer_n be_v no_o peer_n in_o any_o county_n of_o england_n as_o the_o forecited_a book_n ●esolve_v now_o this_o statute_n enact_v all_o foreign_a treason_n to_o be_v triable_a not_o in_o ireland_n or_o any_o other_o his_o majesty_n dominion_n but_o in_o england_n only_o it_o be_v necessary_a and_o convenient_a by_o this_o special_a proviso_n to_o save_v the_o trial_n by_o peer_n to_o all_o english_a peer_n to_o be_v try_v for_o foreign_a treason_n only_o in_o england_n according_a to_o *_o 49._o magna_fw-la charta_fw-la and_o the_o common_a law_n be_v their_o birthright_n

thing_n impossible_a to_o try_v they_o here_o by_o irish_a or_o any_o other_o foreign_a peer_n for_o the_o reason_n former_o allege_v and_o this_o statute_n confine_v the_o trial_n within_o it_o only_o to_o england_n it_o have_v be_v a_o direct_a contradiction_n and_o absurdity_n to_o provide_v that_o these_o foreign_a peer_n shall_v be_v try_v here_o by_o their_o foreign_a peer_n for_o treason_n and_o not_o by_o a_o ordinary_a jury_n because_o they_o be_v neither_o peer_n themselves_o in_o england_n nor_o other_o who_o shall_v come_v hither_o from_o ireland_n or_o other_o foreign_a
