but_o therein_o there_o be_v no_o certain_a rule_n but_o his_o lordship_n own_o wisdom_n and_o opinion_n to_o discern_v whether_o the_o law_n can_v relieve_v it_o or_o not_o or_o that_o there_o be_v any_o defect_n or_o not_o so_o as_o if_o his_o lordship_n think_v there_o be_v cause_n to_o retain_v it_o he_o may_v or_o dismiss_v it_o if_o it_o please_v he_o according_a to_o his_o own_o

the_o parliament_n have_v do_v as_o before_o the_o act_n he_o may_v have_v do_v for_o that_o so_o much_o be_v provide_v for_o as_o the_o whole_a three_o estate_n think_v meet_v to_o who_o judgement_n his_o lordship_n be_v to_o yield_v but_o if_o any_o go_v about_o to_o defraud_v any_o act_n of_o parliament_n or_o not_o able_a to_o seek_v relief_n as_o the_o statute_n appoint_v then_o as_o

rule_n there_o can_v be_v for_o his_o direction_n in_o that_o behalf_n hereupon_o be_v it_o also_o conclude_v that_o his_o lordship_n authority_n judicial_a both_o by_o ordinary_a power_n and_o by_o absolute_a power_n be_v limit_v by_o the_o law_n of_o the_o land_n for_o in_o the_o ordinary_a he_o be_v tie_v to_o the_o strict_a course_n of_o the_o law_n as_o other_o judge_n be_v and_o in_o the_o absolute_a power_n though_o not_o tie_v to_o the_o course_n of_o the_o law_n yet_o he_o be_v to_o deal_v per_fw-la regulatam_fw-la conscientiam_fw-la and_o according_a to_o the_o course_n of_o the_o court_n and_o in_o such_o case_n as_o in_o case_n of_o conscience_n and_o equity_n likewise_o have_v be_v relieve_v beforetime_n but_o not_o in_o any_o case_n that_o law_n have_v allow_v of_o for_o good_a and_o necessary_a nor_o in_o any_o that_o any_o parliament_n have_v make_v provision_n for_o unless_o for_o some_o circumstance_n the_o party_n can_v not_o have_v that_o which_o the_o true_a intent_n of_o the_o law_n or_o the_o parliament_n allow_v he_o but_o by_o mean_n of_o that_o court_n and_o many_o thing_n that_o a_o good_a conscience_n will_v will_v a_o man_n to_o do_v in_o charity_n to_o his_o neighbour_n his_o lordship_n by_o his_o conscience_n can_v compel_v he_o to_o do_v by_o the_o course_n of_o that_o court._n 10._o but_o in_o all_o that_o discourse_v none_o can_v find_v how_o far_o his_o lordship_n absolute_a power_n go_v nor_o within_o what_o limit_n certain_a it_o can_v be_v contain_v nor_o by_o what_o mean_v he_o may_v find_v out_o the_o truth_n but_o that_o be_v without_o limitation_n refer_v to_o his_o own_o gift_n and_o the_o grace_n of_o god_n that_o give_v wisdom_n to_o find_v out_o the_o truth_n and_o conscience_n to_o judge_v according_o sometime_o to_o find_v it_o out_o by_o the_o law_n of_o nature_n as_o solomon_n do_v when_o no_o testimony_n can_v be_v find_v in_o the_o world_n yet_o he_o find_v by_o her_o bowel_n of_o compassion_n the_o true_a mother_n of_o the_o child_n and_o sometime_o it_o be_v find_v out_o by_o one_o mean_a and_o sometime_o by_o another_o but_o god_n never_o fail_v to_o give_v wisdom_n and_o mean_n to_o perform_v those_o office_n and_o calling_n that_o his_o majesty_n place_v man_n in_o so_o as_o they_o serve_v he_o in_o fear_n and_o walk_v before_o he_o with_o a_o good_a conscience_n and_o seek_v it_o in_o humility_n and_o with_o prayer_n at_o his_o hand_n who_o will_n which_o be_v infinite_a be_v the_o rule_n of_o the_o lord_n chancellor_n conscience_n and_o therefore_o his_o authority_n in_o that_o respect_n be_v infinite_a and_o not_o limit_v in_o certainty_n 11._o upon_o all_o these_o note_n the_o reader_n conclude_v with_o this_o note_n that_o it_o be_v certain_a that_o his_o lordship_n office_n and_o authority_n be_v by_o the_o law_n of_o the_o land_n and_o not_o derogatory_n thereto_o but_o be_v constitute_v by_o the_o lawmaker_n to_o supply_v those_o thing_n that_o the_o judge_n that_o be_v bind_v to_o the_o general_a rule_n can_v not_o relieve_v but_o in_o nothing_o to_o proceed_v to_o the_o prejudice_n of_o the_o law_n and_o to_o that_o end_n his_o lordship_n be_v make_v a_o judge_n of_o the_o law_n in_o some_o case_n and_o also_o a_o judge_n by_o conscience_n beside_o the_o general_a rule_n of_o law_n in_o some_o other_o case_n for_o that_o be_v a_o judge_n of_o the_o law_n as_o well_o as_o other_o his_o lordship_n be_v with_o other_o to_o uphold_v the_o credit_n of_o the_o law_n and_o that_o most_o of_o all_o other_o for_o that_o she_o give_v he_o great_a authority_n than_o any_o other_o and_o trust_v he_o above_o all_o the_o rest_n in_o that_o she_o tie_v all_o the_o rest_n to_o follow_v strict_a rule_n and_o leave_v he_o to_o rule_v by_o the_o grace_n of_o god_n and_o his_o own_o conscience_n and_o to_o observe_v only_o the_o equity_n and_o not_o the_o strict_a rule_n thereof_o wherefore_o no_o man_n ought_v once_o to_o control_v his_o lordship_n judgement_n in_o any_o cause_n that_o he_o proceed_v in_o by_o his_o absolute_a power_n but_o be_v with_o reverence_n to_o yield_v unto_o it_o for_o as_o much_o as_o every_o one_o by_o the_o rule_n of_o charity_n and_o of_o the_o estimation_n that_o we_o ought_v to_o have_v of_o they_o that_o god_n have_v substitute_v over_o we_o be_v to_o judge_v the_o best_a that_o be_v that_o his_o lordship_n have_v proceed_v in_o singleness_n of_o heart_n according_a to_o his_o conscience_n and_o the_o director_n of_o a_o good_a man_n conscience_n be_v the_o will_n of_o god_n which_o be_v the_o perfect_a rule_n of_o righteousness_n howsoever_o it_o seem_v to_o man_n in_o his_o wit_n or_o judgement_n wherefore_o when_o his_o lordship_n have_v set_v down_o his_o judgement_n as_o god_n have_v guide_v his_o conscience_n in_o any_o case_n where_o he_o be_v judge_n by_o conscience_n though_o it_o differ_v from_o some_o other_o judgement_n give_v either_o by_o himself_o or_o any_o other_o good_a man_n that_o sit_v in_o his_o seat_n all_o man_n be_v bind_v to_o think_v that_o the_o case_n differ_v in_o some_o circumstance_n that_o they_o can_v see_v or_o have_v not_o
