doubt_v by_o some_o whether_o his_o lordship_n authority_n absolute_a may_v bind_v the_o great_a man_n of_o the_o land_n viz._n the_o nobility_n as_o well_o as_o the_o mean_a subject_n and_o the_o

court_n be_v imprisonment_n until_o the_o party_n will_v yield_v to_o obey_v the_o decree_n and_o order_n thereof_o and_o by_o the_o great_a charter_n no_o freeman_n ought_v to_o be_v imprison_v but_o by_o the_o law_n of_o the_o land_n but_o that_o seem_v no_o cause_n why_o the_o order_n of_o the_o lord_n chancellor_n shall_v not_o bind_v they_o for_o by_o the_o law_n of_o the_o land_n if_o the_o peer_n commit_v any_o contempt_n to_o the_o crown_n they_o be_v to_o be_v take_v by_o their_o body_n as_o other_o man_n and_o mr._n bracton_n lib._n 1._o cap._n 24._o have_v these_o word_n ea_fw-la
