as_o the_o house_n may_v upon_o their_o own_o past_a and_o present_a cognizance_n of_o the_o same_o most_o just_o proceed_v to_o suspend_v they_o as_o in_o many_o other_o case_n upon_o far_o less_o

in_o the_o house_n allege_v to_o be_v but_o against_o order_n or_o custom_n of_o the_o house_n and_o this_o without_o any_o trial_n proof_n or_o charge_n but_o mere_o upon_o the_o house_n own_o

without_o some_o pretence_n against_o we_o of_o breach_n of_o privilege_n and_o therefore_o though_o we_o think_v no_o privilege_n ought_v to_o protect_v evil_a man_n in_o do_v wrong_a to_o

be_v some_o way_n misinform_v delude_a surprise_v or_o otherwise_o abuse_v in_o these_o thing_n by_o evil_a member_n we_o have_v frequent_o in_o former_a paper_n before_o the_o charge_n put_v the_o

disengage_v the_o honour_n of_o parliament_n from_o the_o evil_a practice_n and_o design_n of_o such_o incendiary_n now_o since_o the_o same_o difficulty_n or_o prejudice_n lie_v yet_o in_o our_o
