that_o he_o shall_v be_v discharge_v and_o go_v without_o day_n my_o lord_n i_o do_v not_o altogether_o rely_v upon_o this_o precedent_n for_o law_n but_o i_o find_v it_o in_o that_o book_n now_o my_o lord_n i_o shall_v offer_v some_o reason_n in_o general_a first_o that_o when_o once_o the_o commons_o in_o parliament_n in_o the_o name_n of_o themselves_o and_o of_o all_o the_o commons_o of_o england_n have_v lodge_v a_o impeachment_n against_o any_o man_n it_o seem_v to_o i_o against_o natural_a justice_n that_o shall_v ever_o any_o commoner_n afterward_o come_v to_o try_v or_o judge_v that_o man_n for_o that_o fact_n i_o speak_v this_o because_o every_o man_n in_o england_n that_o be_v a_o commoner_n be_v a_o party_n to_o the_o accusation_n and_o so_o we_o have_v plead_v by_o such_o a_o impeachment_n a_o man_n be_v subject_v to_o another_o sort_n of_o trial_n magna_fw-la charta_fw-la say_v that_o every_o man_n shall_v be_v try_v by_o his_o peer_n or_o by_o the_o law_n of_o the_o land_n and_o by_o the_o law_n of_o the_o land_n there_o be_v several_a sort_n of_o trial_n some_o by_o juries_n other_o not_o by_o juries_n this_o be_v one_o of_o those_o sort_n where_o the_o trial_n be_v by_o the_o law_n of_o the_o land_n but_o not_o by_o his_o peer_n for_o it_o will_v be_v hard_a that_o any_o man_n shall_v come_v to_o try_v or_o to_o give_v judgement_n upon_o a_o person_n who_o have_v be_v his_o accuser_n before_o and_o in_o effect_n have_v already_o give_v his_o judgement_n that_o he_o be_v guilty_a by_o the_o accusation_n of_o he_o and_o so_o stand_v not_o indifferent_a by_o this_o mean_v the_o trial_n by_o jury_n be_v go_v and_o the_o lord_n who_o be_v the_o peer_n of_o the_o realm_n be_v judge_n in_o point_n of_o fact_n as_o well_o as_o law_n here_o be_v a_o enormous_a offence_n against_o which_o all_o the_o nation_n cry_v for_o so_o they_o do_v in_o the_o impeachment_n then_o say_v the_o law_n it_o be_v not_o fit_a that_o you_o shall_v try_v he_o who_o be_v party_n but_o the_o lord_n be_v the_o proper_a judge_n they_o shall_v try_v he_o per_fw-la testes_fw-la and_o the_o commoner_n may_v come_v in_o as_o witness_n but_o not_o as_o judge_n my_o lord_n another_o reason_n be_v this_o that_o if_o a_o appeal_n of_o death_n or_o any_o other_o appeal_n be_v depend_v before_o the_o statute_n of_o 3_o h._n 7._o cap._n 1._o the_o king_n can_v
