ratcliff_n be_v not_o the_o man_n alone_o but_o other_o join_v with_o he_o in_o that_o assembly_n and_o i_o be_o sure_a my_o lord_n of_o strafford_n move_v it_o for_o the_o breach_n of_o parliament_n i_o shall_v address_v myself_o to_o the_o body_n of_o his_o answer_n now_o give_v i_o leave_v my_o lord_n that_o i_o may_v open_v the_o nature_n of_o this_o great_a offence_n my_o lord_n it_o be_v a_o charge_n of_o treason_n which_o be_v a_o treason_n not_o end_v or_o expire_v by_o one_o single_a act_n but_o a_o trade_n enure_v by_o this_o lord_n of_o strafford_n ever_o since_o the_o king_n favour_n have_v be_v bestow_v upon_o he_o my_o lord_n it_o have_v two_o part_n to_o deprive_v we_o that_o which_o be_v good_a and_o second_o to_o bring_v in_o a_o tyrannical_a government_n it_o take_v away_o the_o law_n of_o the_o land_n and_o it_o have_v a_o arbitrary_a government_n bound_v by_o no_o law_n but_o what_o my_o lord_n of_o strafford_n please_v it_o be_v the_o law_n my_o lord_n which_o we_o reverence_v and_o cheerful_o render_v to_o our_o gracious_a sovereign_n the_o law_n as_o it_o be_v the_o ground_n of_o our_o liberty_n so_o it_o be_v the_o distribution_n of_o justice_n my_o lord_n in_o all_o this_o my_o lord_n of_o strafford_n have_v endeavour_v to_o make_v they_o uncapable_a of_o any_o benefit_n it_o be_v true_a my_o lord_n that_o treason_n against_o the_o person_n of_o a_o prince_n be_v high_a treason_n and_o the_o high_a treason_n that_o can_v be_v to_o man_n but_o it_o fall_v short_a of_o this_o treason_n against_o the_o state_n when_o bless_a king_n james_n be_v take_v to_o heaven_n he_o commend_v the_o law_n to_o his_o son_n our_o gracious_a sovereign_n but_o my_o lord_n if_o such_o a_o design_n as_o this_o shall_v take_v effect_n that_o the_o law_n of_o justice_n shouldbe_v take_v from_o the_o throne_n we_o be_v without_o hope_n of_o ever_o see_v happy_a day_n power_n be_v not_o so_o easy_o lay_v down_o unless_o it_o be_v by_o so_o good_a and_o

else_o be_v the_o subject_n my_o lord_n this_o he_o have_v not_o do_v only_o upon_o the_o mean_a sort_n but_o upon_o the_o peer_n and_o ancient_a nobility_n and_o what_o may_v your_o lordship_n expect_v but_o the_o same_o measure_n at_o his_o hand_n here_o as_o they_o have_v find_v there_o when_o he_o commit_v any_o to_o prison_n if_o a_o habeas_fw-la corpus_fw-la be_v grant_v the_o officer_n must_v not_o obey_v and_o if_o any_o fine_a be_v put_v upon_o the_o officer_n for_o refuse_v they_o there_o be_v a_o command_n that_o he_o shall_v be_v discharge_v so_o that_o he_o do_v not_o only_o take_v power_n to_o himself_o but_o the_o sceptre_n of_o justice_n out_o of_o the_o king_n hand_n when_o he_o be_v a_o member_n of_o the_o house_n of_o commons_o it_o be_v his_o own_o motion_n all_o minister_n of_o state_n shall_v serve_v the_o king_n according_a to_o the_o law_n which_o he_o have_v break_v himself_o he_o do_v as_o much_o as_o say_v that_o fines_n shall_v not_o be_v pay_v by_o officer_n if_o in_o this_o they_o fulfil_v his_o command_n but_o those_o that_o release_v a_o prisoner_n upon_o a_o habeas_fw-la corpus_fw-la shall_v find_v his_o displeasure_n my_o lord_n if_o this_o have_v be_v a_o single_a act_n we_o shall_v not_o have_v accuse_v he_o of_o high_a treason_n but_o this_o have_v be_v his_o common_a course_n and_o this_o we_o present_v to_o your_o

than_o the_o loin_n of_o the_o law_n my_o lord_n what_o a_o sad_a speech_n be_v this_o and_o what_o sad_a accident_n happen_v upon_o it_o you_o all_o know_v and_o he_o say_v in_o a_o solemn_a speech_n that_o ireland_n be_v a_o conquer_a nation_n and_o that_o the_o king_n may_v do_v with_o they_o what_o he_o will_v their_o charter_n be_v nothing_o worth_a they_o do_v bind_v the_o king_n no_o long_o than_o he_o please_v sure_o you_o may_v see_v what_o he_o will_v do_v if_o he_o have_v power_n but_o we_o hope_v never_o such_o counsel_n shall_v have_v acceptation_n in_o so_o gracious_a a_o ear_n as_o our_o sovereign_n and_o he_o do_v not_o stay_v in_o word_n but_o proceed_v to_o action_n when_o a_o peer_n of_o the_o kingdom_n be_v expel_v the_o kingdom_n for_o sue_v at_o law_n for_o recover_v

tell_v they_o in_o parliament_n they_o be_v a_o conquer_a nation_n and_o they_o must_v expect_v the_o usage_n of_o a_o conquer_a nation_n the_o lord_n mountnorris_n for_o a_o few_o word_n that_o

of_o himself_o and_o he_o make_v a_o difference_n in_o matter_n of_o justice_n between_o the_o poor_a and_o the_o rich_a but_o when_o he_o have_v execute_v his_o power_n upon_o the_o poor_a he_o
