lay_v as_o a_o ground_n of_o my_o follow_a argument_n that_o as_o offence_n be_v of_o two_o nature_n capital_a or_o as_o trespass_n so_o they_o be_v punish_v in_o two_o manner_n to_o wit_n capital_o or_o by_o fine_a or_o imprisonment_n for_o the_o offence_n of_o the_o first_o nature_n as_o treason_n and_o the_o like_a imprisonment_n be_v impose_v upon_o the_o offender_n only_o for_o custody_n but_o for_o misdemeanour_n of_o the_o second_o nature_n imprisonment_n be_v impose_v upon_o he_o for_o a_o punishment_n then_o this_o be_v my_o ground_n that_o no_o freeman_n that_o be_v imprison_v only_o for_o misdemeanour_n before_o conviction_n may_v be_v detain_v in_o prison_n without_o bail_n if_o it_o be_v offer_v unless_o it_o be_v in_o some_o particular_a case_n in_o which_o the_o

perhaps_o this_o be_v a_o good_a ground_n of_o the_o commitment_n but_o it_o be_v no_o ground_n for_o the_o detain_v of_o the_o prisoner_n without_o bail_n and_o this_o the_o king_n himself_o have_v acknowledge_v as_o the_o ancient_a right_n of_o the_o subject_a in_o the_o petition_n of_o right_n wherefore_o it_o be_v not_o now_o to_o be_v dispute_v 3._o for_o the_o warrant_n of_o the_o king_n as_o it_o be_v certify_v by_o this_o return_n there_o be_v not_o any_o sufficient_a cause_n contain_v within_o it_o for_o the_o detain_v of_o the_o prisoner_n in_o prison_n for_o the_o law_n be_v as_o i_o have_v declare_v above_o that_o for_o a_o misdemeanour_n before_o conviction_n no_o freeman_n may_v be_v imprison_v before_o conviction_n without_o bail_n or_o mainprize_n the_o sole_a question_n
