of_o the_o house_n have_v great_a credit_n in_o the_o manager_n house_n and_o they_o take_v not_o the_o least_o exception_n against_o sir_n william_n pennyman_n for_o any_o thing_n he_o say_v before_o

shall_v never_o do_v other_o than_o ready_o obey_v whatsoever_o your_o lordship_n speech_n shall_v please_v to_o command_v i_o my_o heart_n pay_v you_o obedience_n and_o so_o in_o truth_n shall_v every_o thing_n that_o proceed_v from_o i_o the_o question_n i_o observe_v be_v matter_n of_o truth_n or_o not_o truth_n in_o the_o preamble_n as_o they_o call_v it_o of_o this_o my_o answer_n and_o to_o that_o with_o all_o the_o humility_n and_o modesty_n in_o the_o world_n i_o will_v apply_v myself_o as_o not_o conceive_v it_o any_o way_n become_v i_o to_o speak_v any_o thing_n of_o sharpness_n in_o any_o kind_n but_o with_o all_o humility_n and_o reverence_n to_o bear_v all_o these_o affliction_n with_o acknowledgement_n unto_o almighty_a god_n and_o to_o lay_v they_o so_o to_o my_o heart_n that_o they_o may_v provide_v for_o i_o in_o another_o world_n where_o we_o be_v to_o expect_v the_o consummation_n of_o all_o blessedness_n and_o happiness_n and_o therefore_o to_o lay_v aside_o all_o these_o aggravation_n by_o word_n wherewith_o i_o have_v be_v set_v forth_o to_o your_o lordship_n only_o with_o this_o that_o i_o trust_v i_o shall_v make_v myself_o appear_v a_o person_n otherwise_o in_o my_o disposition_n and_o action_n than_o i_o have_v be_v render_v and_o short_o and_o brief_o i_o shall_v fall_v upon_o the_o very_a point_n as_o near_o as_o i_o can_v that_o be_v mention_v by_o that_o noble_a gentleman_n and_o if_o i_o shall_v forget_v any_o i_o desire_v to_o be_v remember_v of_o they_o that_o i_o may_v give_v the_o best_a answer_n i_o can_v on_o a_o sudden_a with_o this_o protestation_n that_o if_o i_o have_v have_v time_n i_o shall_v have_v give_v a_o far_o clear_a answer_n than_o on_o the_o sudden_a i_o shall_v be_v able_a to_o do_v i_o will_v take_v they_o as_o they_o lie_v in_o order_n and_o the_o first_o thing_n in_o this_o answer_n be_v that_o in_o ireland_n by_o my_o mean_n many_o good_a law_n be_v make_v for_o increase_v of_o the_o king_n revenue_n and_o for_o good_a of_o the_o church_n and_o commonwealth_n and_o this_o i_o humble_o conceive_v be_v not_o deny_v direct_o only_o it_o be_v infer_v that_o law_n be_v of_o no_o use_n where_o will_n be_v put_v above_o law_n that_o these_o law_n be_v make_v the_o act_n of_o parliament_n that_o be_v extant_a and_o visible_a thing_n do_v make_v appear_v for_o though_o i_o may_v express_v it_o dark_o by_o reason_n i_o understand_v not_o matter_n of_o law_n the_o truth_n of_o it_o be_v before_o such_o time_n as_o i_o come_v there_o the_o statute_n of_o will_n and_o uses_n and_o fraudulent_a conveyance_n be_v not_o of_o force_n in_o ireland_n by_o which_o there_o be_v a_o very_a great_a mischief_n that_o fall_v many_o way_n both_o on_o the_o king_n and_o special_o on_o the_o english_a planter_n for_o by_o want_n of_o these_o statute_n no_o man_n know_v when_o he_o have_v a_o good_a title_n and_o old_a entayle_n will_v be_v set_v on_o foot_n and_o by_o that_o mean_v the_o late_a purchaser_n avoid_v by_o which_o mean_v there_o be_v a_o great_a loss_n and_o prejudice_n to_o the_o king_n in_o his_o ward_n which_o by_o these_o law_n be_v settle_v and_o the_o law_n of_o ireland_n bring_v much_o near_o the_o law_n of_o england_n than_o before_o and_o in_o this_o point_n i_o conceive_v i_o be_o not_o absolute_o gainsay_v but_o only_o conditional_o that_o be_v that_o notwithstanding_o this_o i_o have_v set_v up_o another_o government_n arbitrary_a and_o tyrannical_a to_o which_o i_o shall_v not_o now_o trouble_v your_o lordship_n with_o a_o answer_n that_o be_v in_o the_o particular_n of_o my_o charge_n and_o thus_o i_o think_v the_o first_o to_o be_v fair_o and_o clear_o answer_v then_o that_o there_o be_v more_o parliament_n in_o the_o time_n of_o my_o government_n than_o in_o 50_o year_n before_o there_o be_v two_o in_o my_o time_n and_o if_o i_o may_v call_v witness_n it_o will_v appear_v that_o there_o be_v not_o so_o many_o within_o that_o time_n before_o but_o be_v not_o material_a to_o my_o defence_n or_o condemnation_n i_o will_v not_o trouble_v your_o lordship_n with_o proof_n unless_o you_o will_v require_v it_o i_o have_v they_o here_o that_o i_o think_v can_v make_v it_o good_a and_o whereas_o in_o my_o answer_n i_o deny_v that_o i_o ever_o have_v hand_n in_o any_o project_n or_o monopoly_n and_o that_o i_o do_v prevent_v divers_a that_o otherwise_o will_v have_v pass_v i_o say_v that_o under_o favour_n with_o all_o duty_n and_o confidence_n i_o must_v still_o affirm_v it_o that_o i_o never_o have_v hand_n or_o share_v in_o any_o manner_n of_o monopoly_n or_o project_n whatsoever_o unless_o the_o tobacco-business_n be_v a_o monopoly_n which_o under_o favour_n i_o shall_v clear_v not_o to_o be_v but_o that_o be_v part_n of_o my_o charge_n i_o think_v it_o impertinent_a now_o to_o give_v answer_n unto_o it_o but_o will_v satisfy_v your_o lordship_n in_o that_o behalf_n in_o proper_a time_n and_o place_n but_o more_o than_o that_o of_o tobacco_n i_o say_v absolute_o and_o direct_o i_o never_o have_v my_o hand_n or_o share_v in_o any_o monopoly_n or_o project_n nay_o i_o do_v as_o murh_n as_o i_o can_v oppose_v all_o of_o they_o particular_o the_o monopoly_n of_o iron-pot_n for_o which_o i_o reserve_v myself_o to_o answer_n as_o part_v of_o my_o charge_n and_o a_o new_a book_n of_o rate_n whereby_o it_o be_v propose_v that_o the_o rate_n of_o the_o king_n custom_n may_v be_v increase_v and_o this_o i_o do_v oppose_v and_o disavow_v albeit_o i_o be_v a_o sharer_n in_o the_o farm_n and_o consequent_o shall_v have_v have_v the_o benefit_n and_o advantage_n of_o it_o for_o my_o proportion_n and_o by_o the_o king_n gracious_a goodness_n when_o his_o majesty_n come_v to_o be_v more_o full_o and_o clear_o inform_v of_o it_o it_o be_v stop_v and_o never_o go_v on_o and_o this_o i_o will_v make_v appear_v in_o that_o point_n of_o the_o article_n that_o concern_v the_o custom_n the_o four_o be_v that_o i_o have_v not_o have_v any_o great_a power_n or_o large_a commission_n than_o my_o predecessor_n in_o that_o government_n have_v have_v which_o i_o conceive_v under_o favour_n be_v not_o controvert_v but_o grant_v and_o therefore_o stand_v good_a to_o i_o or_o if_o it_o be_v controvert_v i_o be_o able_a to_o make_v it_o appear_v that_o i_o have_v bring_v in_o nothing_o more_o than_o be_v former_o accustom_v in_o the_o point_n of_o the_o deputies-commission_n the_o next_o thing_n in_o my_o answer_n be_v that_o the_o revenue_n of_o ireland_n be_v never_o able_a to_o support_v itself_o before_o my_o come_n thither_o and_o that_o i_o say_v still_o with_o all_o humility_n and_o duty_n be_v most_o true_a and_o i_o trust_v to_o make_v it_o apparent_o true_a present_o if_o your_o lordship_n will_v give_v i_o leave_v to_o call_v for_o and_o examine_v my_o witness_n it_o be_v the_o proof_n your_o lordship_n will_v look_v to_o and_o not_o to_o what_o be_v only_o allege_v by_o that_o worthy_a gentleman_n and_o further_o than_o your_o lordship_n shall_v find_v prove_v i_o desire_v not_o to_o be_v believe_v the_o proof_n offer_v against_o i_o be_v by_o sir_n
