prove_v only_o by_o witness_n or_o the_o parliament_n sit_v by_o the_o parliament_n and_o not_o by_o a_o jury_n be_v matter_n of_o fact_n tryable_a by_o the_o course_n of_o the_o common-law_n neither_o do_v we_o conceive_v that_o this_o scandal_n reflect_v upon_o that_o noble_a earl_n ●f_o it_o be_v so_o as_o he_o be_v a_o member_n of_o the_o lord_n house_n but_o as_o a_o general_n of_o

to_o the_o lord_n house_n and_o at_o his_o appear_v there_o one_o of_o which_o be_v for_o not_o kneel_v at_o the_o lord_n bar_n for_o that_o we_o conceive_v that_o if_o he_o through_o the_o
