other_o nation_n but_o they_o can_v never_o assure_v we_o what_o we_o shall_v enjoy_v and_o therefore_o i_o wonder_v why_o the_o royalist_n shall_v so_o much_o extol_v the_o rare_a constitution_n of_o this_o kingdom_n when_o beside_o some_o other_o flower_n of_o the_o crown_n they_o ascribe_v to_o the_o king_n such_o a_o negative_a voice_n in_o parliament_n as_o be_v sufficient_a alone_o to_o destroy_v all_o that_o be_v grant_v we_o in_o all_o thing_n else_o but_o to_o return_v to_o our_o reply_n it_o be_v maintain_v next_o that_o whatsoever_o power_n be_v in_o both_o house_n yet_o there_o be_v no_o power_n in_o the_o house_n of_o commons_o to_o examine_v at_o all_o because_o the_o house_n of_o commons_o can_v administer_v a_o oath_n and_o examination_n without_o oath_n be_v a_o mere_a communication_n and_o reject_v as_o unprofitable_a in_o law_n one_o reason_n why_o the_o house_n of_o commons_o can_v examine_v upon_o oath_n be_v because_o it_o be_v no_o court_n and_o it_o appear_v to_o be_v no_o court_n because_o it_o have_v no_o power_n of_o trial_n nor_o ever_o practise_v any_o such_o power_n by_o bill_n indictment_n information_n plaint_n or_o original_a and_o for_o the_o lord_n cook_n relation_n that_o the_o house_n of_o commons_o have_v impose_v fine_n and_o imprison_a man_n in_o queen_n elizabeth_n time_n and_o since_o he_o say_v these_o be_v but_o late_a and_o a_o few_o matter_n of_o fact_n and_o à_fw-la facto_fw-la ad_fw-la jus_fw-la be_v no_o good_a argument_n here_o we_o see_v though_o the_o great_a plea_n against_o the_o house_n of_o commons_o be_v the_o non-user_n of_o any_o such_o power_n yet_o when_o the_o non-user_n be_v prove_v then_o it_o be_v object_v that_o it_o be_v but_o of_o late_a time_n and_o illustrate_v but_o by_o a_o few_o precedent_n a_o second_o reason_n against_o the_o house_n of_o commons_o be_v a_o court_n be_v because_o it_o have_v neither_o the_o king_n patent_n nor_o any_o statute_n nor_o common_a usage_n to_o make_v it_o so_o the_o house_n of_o lord_n be_v acknowledge_v to_o be_v a_o court_n of_o record_n to_o many_o purpose_n partly_o because_o the_o king_n sit_v there_o and_o partly_o because_o there_o be_v clear_a law_n for_o their_o privilege_n but_o the_o house_n of_o commons_o be_v except_v against_o as_o not_o within_o these_o reason_n the_o truth_n be_v both_o house_n be_v but_o one_o court_n and_o one_o council_n and_o the_o time_n have_v be_v when_o they_o have_v both_o sit_v in_o one_o place_n together_o and_o there_o may_v be_v good_a reason_n give_v why_o they_o may_v sit_v several_a and_o have_v their_o privilege_n keep_v distinct_a and_o why_o the_o lord_n shall_v be_v more_o active_a in_o some_o matter_n of_o judgement_n where_o the_o whole_a commonalty_n interest_n be_v not_o touch_v but_o this_o be_v no_o proof_n that_o what_o the_o lord_n act_n by_o themselves_o receive_v no_o influence_n from_o the_o house_n of_o commons_o or_o that_o the_o house_n of_o peer_n be_v of_o more_o value_n in_o the_o eye_n of_o the_o law_n or_o have_v any_o great_a jurisdiction_n by_o the_o law_n than_o the_o representative_a body_n of_o the_o whole_a state_n as_o for_o the_o king_n sit_v in_o the_o house_n of_o lord_n there_o be_v but_o little_a moment_n in_o that_o in_o regard_n that_o he_o sit_v not_o there_o to_o judge_v or_o to_o debate_v but_o only_o to_o propose_v and_o consent_v and_o there_o be_v no_o law_n to_o debar_v he_o from_o the_o like_a in_o the_o commons_o house_n and_o so_o it_o be_v when_o both_o house_n sit_v together_o and_o still_o be_v when_o they_o meet_v together_o and_o second_o whereas_o some_o patent_n statute_n or_o usage_n be_v demand_v from_o the_o house_n of_o commons_o in_o maintenance_n of_o their_o judicial_a power_n this_o we_o say_v be_v unreasonable_a nay_o if_o any_o patent_n statute_n or_o usage_n can_v be_v produce_v for_o preference_n of_o the_o peerage_n before_o all_o the_o knight_n gentleman_n and_o commons_o of_o england_n in_o this_o point_n that_o be_v rather_o to_o be_v reject_v as_o most_o unjust_a and_o unnatural_a a_o three_o reason_n be_v bring_v against_o the_o house_n of_o commons_o out_o of_o the_o writ_n of_o summons_n forasmuch_o as_o in_o that_o writ_n the_o king_n resolve_v consult_v and_o treat_v with_o his_o peer_n super_fw-la ardua_fw-la regni_fw-la but_o the_o commons_o be_v call_v ad_fw-la faciendum_fw-la et_fw-la consentiendum_fw-la in_fw-la iis_fw-la quae_fw-la ibidem_fw-la de_fw-la communi_fw-la concilio_fw-la ordinari_fw-la contigerint_fw-la these_o word_n of_o the_o writ_n though_o they_o be_v general_a and_o in_o some_o thing_n ambigious_a yet_o they_o be_v no_o more_o disadvantageous_a to_o the_o commons_o then_o to_o the_o lord_n or_o king_n but_o if_o word_n be_v to_o be_v interpret_v by_o the_o practice_n of_o parliament_n and_o by_o the_o tenor_n of_o all_o our_o other_o law_n we_o shall_v find_v that_o the_o king_n part_n be_v to_o propose_v and_o consent_n but_o not_o to_o debate_v that_o the_o lord_n part_n be_v to_o propose_v debate_n and_o consent_n in_o some_o thing_n but_o not_o in_o all_o that_o the_o commons_o part_n be_v to_o propose_v debate_n and_o consent_n in_o all_o and_o this_o appear_v by_o the_o raise_n of_o treasure_n the_o grand_a concernment_n of_o the_o kingdom_n call_v just_o ornamentum_fw-la pacis_fw-la et_fw-la firmamentum_fw-la belli_fw-la and_o in_o this_o though_o the_o king_n and_o lord_n may_v propose_v and_o consent_v yet_o none_o but_o the_o commons_o may_v propose_v debate_n and_o consent_n from_o reason_v mr_n jenkins_n now_o betake_v himself_o to_o rail_v and_o tell_v both_o lord_n and_o commons_o that_o whatsoever_o their_o writ_n mean_v they_o act_v now_o quite_o contrary_a for_o by_o their_o writ_n they_o be_v require_v to_o treat_v and_o consult_v with_o the_o king_n concerning_o the_o king_n the_o defence_n of_o the_o kingdom_n and_o the_o church_n whereas_o they_o first_o imprison_v the_o king_n next_o arm_n the_o kingdom_n for_o themselves_o against_o the_o king_n and_o last_o demolish_v the_o church_n by_o abolish_n bishop_n dean_n etc._n etc._n for_o the_o first_o the_o king_n leave_v they_o unconstrained_a and_o desert_v westminster_n whether_o they_o be_v summon_v to_o attend_v he_o and_o after_o take_v arm_n to_o dissolve_v they_o but_o those_o arm_n be_v now_o break_v the_o parliament_n keep_v he_o from_o raise_v new_a broil_n but_o so_o far_o be_v they_o from_o refuse_v to_o treat_v with_o he_o that_o they_o prepare_v proposition_n for_o he_o and_o reject_v no_o message_n or_o letter_n that_o come_v from_o he_o neither_o be_v the_o king_n restraint_n proper_o to_o be_v call_v imprisonment_n be_v much_o different_a therefrom_o both_o for_o the_o manner_n and_o for_o the_o end_n of_o it_o the_o manner_n of_o it_o be_v ingenuous_a and_o accompany_v with_o many_o accommodation_n which_o thousand_o of_o other_o freeman_n nay_o gentleman_n of_o england_n can_v attain_v too_o and_o for_o his_o attendant_n they_o be_v true_o his_o servant_n and_o as_o observant_a in_o all_o office_n compatible_a with_o the_o peace_n of_o the_o kingdom_n as_o ever_o he_o have_v any_o the_o end_n of_o his_o restraint_n also_o be_v not_o to_o incommodate_v he_o in_o any_o degree_n there_o be_v nothing_o aim_v at_o in_o it_o but_o to_o preserve_v the_o kingdom_n from_o new_a disturbance_n till_o he_o appear_v full_o reconcile_v and_o to_o preserve_v he_o from_o draw_v prejudice_n upon_o himself_o for_o the_o second_o since_o it_o be_v not_o for_o the_o kingdom_n damage_n nor_o the_o king_n that_o future_a commotion_n be_v suppress_v the_o lord_n and_o commons_o can_v no_o way_n better_o satisfy_v the_o intent_n of_o their_o summons_n than_o by_o suppress_v commotion_n by_o the_o same_o posture_n of_o defence_n as_o they_o now_o be_v in_o i_o can_v wish_v also_o that_o mr._n jenkin_n will_v understand_v that_o as_o the_o kingdom_n be_v call_v the_o king_n so_o the_o king_n be_v call_v the_o kingdom_n and_o that_o propriety_n which_o the_o kingdom_n have_v in_o the_o king_n be_v more_o tender_o to_o be_v expound_v then_o that_o which_o the_o king_n have_v in_o the_o kingdom_n for_o the_o three_o that_o the_o word_n church_n shall_v only_o be_v apply_v to_o churchman_n or_o the_o word_n churchman_n to_o bishop_n dean_n etc._n etc._n be_v

the_o church_n 2_o thus_o much_o of_o mr._n jenkin_n reply_n to_o the_o first_o particular_a i_o come_v now_o to_o his_o second_o where_o he_o take_v it_o ill_o that_o
