and_o he_o say_v that_o the_o house_n of_o commons_o desire_v that_o such_o a_o power_n may_v have_v be_v enact_v into_o a_o law_n though_o themselves_o will_v have_v be_v the_o first_o who_o will_v

need_n be_v there_o of_o a_o law_n if_o the_o order_n be_v in_o force_n after_o dissolution_n without_o a_o law_n upon_o the_o whole_a he_o say_v he_o think_v the_o distemper_n of_o that_o time_n have_v give_v more_o weight_n to_o the_o order_n than_o any_o thing_n else_o and_o some_o of_o their_o lordship_n on_o that_o bench_n do_v know_v both_o in_o what_o a_o heat_n it_o have_v be_v make_v and_o how_o it_o have_v be_v since_o blow_v upon_o by_o the_o lord_n themselves_o who_o he_o be_v confident_a will_v no_o more_o endure_v to_o have_v it_o construe_v in_o that_o sense_n which_o now_o

he_o have_v say_v thus_o much_o to_o the_o order_n itself_o so_o he_o say_v he_o hope_v to_o make_v appear_v that_o the_o court_n bail_v of_o he_o will_v not_o at_o all_o entrench_v upon_o the_o order_n nor_o meddle_v with_o the_o jurisdiction_n of_o the_o lord_n nor_o their_o proceed_n in_o any_o kind_n for_o that_o he_o take_v it_o for_o grant_v that_o what_o be_v do_v by_o that_o court_n and_o the_o court_n of_o chancery_n and_o exchequer_n on_o appeal_n and_o writ_n of_o error_n be_v understand_v not_o to_o meddle_v at_o all_o with_o the_o jurisdiction_n nor_o proceed_n of_o the_o

court_n in_o the_o interval_n of_o parliament_n beside_o he_o say_v it_o have_v be_v usual_a to_o bail_v in_o that_o court_n to_o the_o justice_n seat_n in_o eyre_n and_o yet_o that_o that_o court_n

the_o trial_n of_o a_o peer_n and_o so_o he_o say_v there_o be_v divers_a other_o instance_n of_o that_o court_n proceed_v to_o such_o and_o such_o degree_n of_o exercise_v their_o power_n to_o avoid_v delay_n etc._n etc._n where_o the_o court_n have_v no_o jurisdiction_n to_o determine_v the_o matter_n precedent_n he_o say_v be_v not_o to_o be_v expect_v which_o be_v exact_o fit_v to_o
