the_o same_o the_o one_o sit_v by_o a_o honour_n invest_v in_o their_o blood_n and_o hereditary_n which_o though_o it_o be_v in_o the_o king_n alone_o to_o grant_v yet_o be_v once_o grant_v he_o can_v

may_v lose_v their_o honour_n but_o neither_o of_o they_o can_v be_v just_o do_v by_o the_o king_n will_n and_o pleasure_n only_o but_o second_o for_o far_a answer_n this_o lord_n tell_v we_o the_o

in_o that_o house_n be_v as_o essential_a as_o the_o lord_n and_o this_o about_o the_o law_n make_v without_o they_o be_v build_v only_o upon_o some_o difficult_a emergent_a case_n from_o which_o

of_o the_o two_o which_o his_o lordship_n say_v be_v strong_a and_o 5._o the_o other_o objection_n be_v this_o that_o this_o bill_n alter_v the_o foundation_n of_o this_o house_n and_o innovation_n which_o shake_v foundation_n be_v dangerous_a and_o true_o this_o objection_n seem_v to_o i_o very_o strong_a but_o perhaps_o that_o be_v by_o reason_n of_o my_o weakness_n for_o my_o lord_n tell_v we_o before_o that_o it_o be_v capable_a of_o a_o satisfactory_a answer_n and_o here_o his_o lordship_n give_v two_o for_o fail_v i_o answer_v first_o that_o if_o there_o shall_v be_v a_o error_n in_o the_o foundation_n when_o it_o shall_v be_v find_v and_o the_o master-builder_n be_v meet_v together_o they_o may_v nay_o they_o ought_v rather_o to_o amend_v it_o than_o to_o suffer_v it_o to_o run_v on_o still_o to_o the_o prejudice_n and_o danger_n of_o the_o whole_a structure_n this_o answer_n whatever_o this_o lord_n think_v of_o it_o be_v not_o satisfactory_a and_o the_o thing_n will_v be_v full_a of_o danger_n whensoever_o it_o shall_v be_v put_v to_o trial_n for_o foundation_n be_v seldom_o meddle_v withal_o but_o with_o great_a hazard_n and_o a_o fundamental_a error_n in_o a_o kingdom_n be_v bear_v with_o more_o safety_n to_o the_o whole_a than_o it_o can_v be_v take_v away_o and_o this_o happen_v partly_o because_o among_o the_o many_o subject_n of_o a_o kingdom_n there_o be_v different_a judgement_n and_o as_o different_a affection_n whence_o it_o follow_v that_o all_o man_n be_v not_o of_o opinion_n that_o that_o which_o be_v call_v a_o error_n in_o the_o foundation_n be_v so_o indeed_o nor_o do_v the_o affection_n of_o all_o man_n dislike_v it_o nay_o perhaps_o the_o great_a perhaps_o the_o better_a part_n will_v approve_v it_o in_o this_o case_n if_o the_o master-builder_n fall_v to_o mend_v of_o this_o somewhat_o boisterous_o may_v they_o not_o rend_v all_o in_o piece_n to_o fall_v about_o their_o own_o ear_n and_o other_o man_n and_o partly_o

will_v go_v near_o to_o possess_v both_o this_o church_n and_o kingdom_n but_o this_o lord_n have_v yet_o somewhat_o more_o to_o say_v namely_o that_o if_o they_o shall_v be_v think_v fit_a to_o sit_v

but_o they_o must_v be_v know_v man_n and_o understand_v the_o rule_n and_o law_n of_o government_n this_o be_v most_o true_a and_o if_o any_o man_n sit_v in_o those_o place_n as_o a_o ignorant_a it_o

for_o if_o they_o spend_v their_o young_a study_n before_o they_o meddle_v with_o divinity_n as_o they_o may_v and_o aught_o sure_o there_o be_v some_o great_a defect_n in_o they_o if_o they_o be_v

i_o be_o sure_a the_o law_n both_o of_o this_o church_n and_o state_n make_v it_o far_o worse_o than_o a_o inconvenience_n have_v i_o say_v thus_o much_o i_o have_v be_v a_o papist_n out_o of_o

in_o the_o parliament_n of_o england_n can_v possible_o be_v as_o great_a or_o no_o less_o a_o inconvenience_n than_o the_o pope_n supremacy_n here_o and_o i_o believe_v this_o lord_n when_o he_o

they_o have_v such_o a_o absolute_a dependency_n upon_o the_o king_n that_o they_o sit_v not_o there_o as_o freeman_n where_o first_o it_o be_v strange_a to_o i_o and_o my_o reason_n that_o any_o
