take_v what_o care_n we_o can_v that_o the_o course_n of_o the_o court_n may_v be_v observe_v but_o as_o for_o this_o matter_n we_o suppose_v this_o practice_n of_o the_o court_n be_v not_o in_o law_n a_o good_a practice_n now_o what_o way_n in_o the_o world_n have_v any_o man_n to_o bring_v this_o so_o in_o question_n as_o to_o have_v a_o judicial_a resolution_n of_o the_o court_n about_o it_o but_o by_o such_o a_o plea_n we_o take_v it_o that_o it_o be_v usual_a and_o legal_a for_o we_o to_o have_v a_o imparlance_n and_o a_o man_n will_v imparle_v but_o the_o court_n upon_o motion_n

the_o judgement_n of_o the_o court_n may_v be_v have_v upon_o it_o one_o way_n or_o other_o but_o the_o court_n will_v never_o go_v about_o to_o hinder_v any_o man_n from_o plead_v where_o he_o may_v

robert_n sawyer_n i_o do_v know_v the_o case_n of_o fitz_n harris_n very_o well_o i_o be_v assign_v of_o council_n by_o the_o court_n for_o he_o we_o be_v four_o of_o we_o and_o there_o be_v a_o plea_n put_v in_o but_o no_o such_o plea_n as_o this_o there_o be_v a_o indictment_n of_o high_a treason_n against_o he_o in_o which_o case_n it_o be_v agree_v on_o all_o hand_n that_o the_o party_n must_v answer_v present_o but_o because_o he_o suggest_v here_o at_o the_o bar_n say_v he_o i_o have_v matter_n to_o plead_v to_o the_o jurisdiction_n of_o the_o court_n and_o show_v what_o it_o be_v i_o be_v impeach_v before_o the_o lord_n in_o parliament_n for_o treason_n for_o the_o same_o matter_n of_o which_o i_o be_o here_o accuse_v the_o court_n do_v give_v he_o time_n to_o put_v this_o into_o form_n and_o we_o be_v assign_v his_o council_n to_o draw_v it_o up_o for_o he_o and_o according_o we_o do_v put_v that_o matter_n into_o a_o plea_n that_o we_o be_v here_o indict_v for_o one_o and_o the_o same_o treason_n for_o which_o we_o be_v impeach_v in_o parliament_n and_o that_o that_o impeachment_n be_v still_o depend_v and_o so_o we_o rest_v in_o the_o judgement_n of_o the_o court_n whether_o we_o shall_v be_v put_v to_o answer_v it_o here_o this_o be_v a_o plea_n that_o carry_v something_o of_o weight_n in_o it_o and_o not_o such_o a_o trifle_a one_o as_o this_o it_o be_v true_a sir_n robert_n sawyer_n who_o be_v then_o attorney_n general_n do_v press_v the_o court_n to_o over-rule_v it_o immediate_o but_o it_o be_v a_o matter_n of_o some_o importance_n the_o court_n will_v not_o do_v that_o but_o have_v it_o argue_v solemn_o by_o council_n on_o both_o side_n and_o at_o last_o there_o be_v the_o opinion_n of_o three_o judge_n against_o one_o that_o the_o plea_n be_v no_o good_a plea_n but_o what_o be_v that_o to_o such_o a_o trifle_a plea_n as_o this_o mr._n att._n gen._n pray_v my_o lord_n favour_v i_o a_o few_o word_n about_o that_o case_n of_o mr._n fitz_n harris_n it_o be_v true_a there_o be_v a_o plea_n put_v in_o and_o it_o be_v true_a also_o that_o that_o which_o bring_v that_o plea_n to_o be_v argue_v be_v the_o demurrer_n that_o be_v put_v in_o by_o sir_n robert_n sawyer_n who_o be_v so_o zealous_a and_o hasty_a in_o the_o matter_n that_o because_o the_o court_n do_v not_o present_o over-rule_v the_o plea_n as_o he_o desire_v he_o immediate_o demur_v before_o the_o rest_n of_o the_o king_n council_n can_v offer_v at_o any_o thing_n about_o it_o and_o thereupon_o it_o be_v put_v to_o the_o judgement_n of_o the_o court_n and_o no_o doubt_n must_v be_v argue_v and_o speak_v to_o on_o both_o side_n but_o where_o plea_n be_v real_o in_o abuse_n of_o the_o court_n the_o court_n never_o give_v any_o countenance_n to_o they_o nay_o true_o i_o have_v know_v another_o course_n take_v i_o be_o unwilling_a to_o mention_v a_o case_n that_o happen_v much_o about_o that_o time_n too_o in_o this_o court_n because_o of_o that_o regard_n i_o have_v to_o my_o lord_n the_o bishop_n but_o sir_n robert_n sawyer_n remember_v it_o very_o well_o i_o be_o sure_a it_o be_v the_o case_n of_o one_o whitaker_n who_o for_o a_o thing_n like_o this_o put_n in_o a_o trifle_a plea_n not_o only_o have_v his_o plea_n reject_v but_o something_o else_o be_v order_v i_o can_v show_v the_o precedent_n but_o that_o i_o be_o more_o tender_a than_o to_o press_v it_o in_o this_o case_n because_o there_o the_o court_n order_v a_o attachment_n to_o go_v against_o he_o but_o i_o will_v put_v these_o gentleman_n in_o mind_n of_o another_o case_n and_o that_o be_v the_o case_n of_o a_o peer_n too_o it_o be_v the_o case_n of_o my_o lord_n delameere_v which_o they_o can_v but_o remember_v it_o be_v in_o the_o high_a case_n a_o case_n of_o treason_n when_o my_o lord_n delameere_v be_v arraign_v and_o to_o be_v try_v for_o high_a treason_n he_o put_v in_o a_o plea_n before_o my_o lord_n chancellor_n who_o be_v then_o high_a steward_n and_o sir_n robert_z sawyer_z who_o be_v then_o attorney_n general_n pray_v the_o lord_n steward_n and_o the_o peer_n to_o reject_v it_o and_o the_o court_n do_v reject_v it_o as_o we_o hope_v the_o court_n will_v do_v this_o and_o will_v never_o so_o far_o delay_v justice_n as_o to_o admit_v of_o a_o plea_n that_o carry_v no_o colour_n in_o it_o and_o there_o be_v no_o demurrer_n put_v into_o the_o plea_n but_o it_o be_v absolute_o refuse_v my_o lord_n in_o this_o case_n we_o have_v have_v the_o judgement_n of_o the_o court_n already_o and_o therefore_o we_o must_v now_o desire_v that_o this_o plea_n may_v be_v reject_v mr._n soll._n gen._n my_o lord_n we_o have_v now_o go_v out_o of_o the_o way_n far_o enough_o already_o it_o be_v time_n for_o we_o to_o return_v and_o bring_v the_o
