that_o in_o such_o great_a case_n he_o never_o know_v any_o man_n bail_v without_o the_o king_n first_o consult_v in_o it_o and_o the_o same_o he_o say_v be_v then_o say_v by_o the_o rest_n of_o the_o

that_o those_o man_n who_o he_o have_v quote_v be_v man_n of_o no_o ordinary_a understanding_n in_o the_o law_n and_o as_o the_o judge_n than_o do_v at_o last_o acknowledge_v their_o sense_n of_o they_o to_o be_v right_a so_o he_o say_v he_o hope_v our_o law_n be_v neither_o change_v nor_o diminish_v in_o what_o relate_v to_o the_o subject_n liberty_n and_o he_o hope_v that_o no_o order_n of_o

that_o court_n be_v principal_o for_o avoid_v all_o failure_n of_o justice_n and_o to_o the_o end_n first_o that_o the_o king_n may_v both_o have_v a_o mean_n of_o give_v right_o to_o his_o subject_n at_o all_o time_n according_a to_o his_o oath_n at_o his_o coronation_n and_o according_a to_o the_o intent_n of_o magna_fw-la charta_fw-la and_o the_o petition_n of_o right_n and_o second_o that_o there_o may_v be_v a_o constant_a place_n for_o the_o subject_a to_o resort_v unto_o for_o remedy_n at_o all_o time_n whensoever_o he_o be_v oppress_v in_o his_o liberty_n and_o he_o hope_v we_o be_v

of_o the_o subject_a as_o any_o thing_n must_v be_v which_o do_v subject_a any_o man_n to_o a_o indefinite_a imprisonment_n he_o conceive_v that_o of_o right_o that_o court_n ought_v to_o free_v any_o

make_v they_o absolute_a and_o above_o the_o law_n for_o so_o it_o must_v be_v if_o it_o be_v adjudge_v that_o they_o may_v commit_v a_o man_n to_o a_o indefinite_a imprisonment_n he_o say_v he_o take_v these_o man_n who_o he_o have_v name_v for_o no_o small_a authority_n in_o this_o age_n and_o the_o earl_n of_o shaftsbury_n he_o say_v be_v a_o man_n still_o as_o much_o for_o the_o maintain_n of_o this_o order_n as_o ever_o but_o that_o his_o lordship_n do_v show_v himself_o at_o the_o same_o time_n to_o be_v for_o english_a liberty_n and_o he_o plain_o show_v his_o own_o sense_n both_o of_o this_o and_o of_o all_o order_n whatever_o which_o concern_v the_o liberty_n of_o the_o subject_a and_o declare_v that_o he_o take_v that_o court_n to_o be_v the_o proper_a judge_n of_o all_o such_o order_n he_o say_v it_o thereby_o appear_v how_o sensible_a that_o lord_n be_v that_o such_o case_n may_v concern_v forty_o as_o well_o as_o one_o and_o member_n of_o either_o house_n as_o well_o as_o other_o man_n and_o without_o relief_n if_o it_o shall_v be_v admit_v that_o ordinart_n court_n can_v not_o relieve_v and_o the_o earl_n of_o danby_n say_v that_o there_o be_v no_o answer_v of_o these_o argument_n of_o the_o earl_n of_o shaftsbury_n unless_o it_o can_v be_v deny_v that_o the_o king_n can_v impeach_v as_o well_o as_o the_o commons_o or_o that_o the_o king_n can_v call_v and_o dissolve_v parliament_n at_o his_o own_o will_n and_o pleasure_n for_o if_o he_o may_v as_o be_v not_o to_o be_v doubt_v he_o say_v he_o be_v sure_o every_o man_n in_o england_n be_v in_o the_o same_o danger_n when_o the_o king_n please_v and_o then_o he_o see_v nothing_o whereby_o we_o have_v any_o security_n but_o that_o we_o live_v under_o a_o king_n who_o will_v not_o exercise_v this_o power_n over_o we_o which_o we_o will_v needs_o put_v into_o his_o hand_n although_o he_o do_v not_o desire_v it_o himself_o as_o if_o we_o be_v so_o weary_a of_o our_o liberty_n that_o we_o will_v be_v industrious_a in_o contrive_v how_o we_o may_v insensible_o slide_v into_o those_o slavery_n which_o our_o ancestor_n have_v be_v some_o age_n take_v pain_n to_o secure_v we_o from_o and_o our_o king_n have_v be_v so_o gracious_a as_o to_o grant_v and_o confirm_v to_o we_o so_o many_o time_n over_o as_o they_o have_v do_v and_o which_o other_o king_n may_v be_v as_o ready_a to_o reassume_v hereafter_o as_o we_o be_v to_o give_v they_o away_o he_o conclude_v his_o observation_n upon_o that_o speech_n of_o the_o earl_n of_o shaftsbury_n with_o take_v notice_n that_o his_o lordship_n have_v show_v he_o be_v one_o of_o those_o peer_n who_o will_v take_v it_o for_o no_o kindness_n to_o be_v make_v absolute_a and_o above_o the_o law_n by_o such_o order_n of_o they_o be_v construe_v to_o extend_v to_o indefinite_a imprisonment_n he_o then_o repeat_v sir_n william_n jones_n his_o declaration_n in_o that_o court_n that_o either_o a_o pardon_n a_o prorogation_n or_o a_o dissolution_n be_v a_o cure_n against_o such_o imprisonment_n and_o he_o observe_v thereupon_o that_o if_o that_o doctrine_n be_v true_a that_o any_o one_o of_o those_o be_v a_o cure_n against_o such_o imprisonment_n and_o he_o can_v not_o doubt_v of_o its_o be_v good_a law_n then_o certain_o he_o ought_v to_o find_v relief_n from_o his_o imprisonment_n who_o have_v every_o one_o of_o those_o cure_n on_o his_o side_n he_o then_o desire_v to_o put_v the_o court_n in_o mind_n how_o in_o the_o worst_a of_o time_n justice_n have_v take_v place_n so_o far_o as_o to_o lay_v aside_o the_o force_n of_o order_n make_v in_o parliament_n after_o the_o dissolution_n of_o those_o parliament_n which_o make_v they_o although_o it_o be_v to_o the_o prejudice_n of_o the_o interest_n of_o those_o usurper_n themselves_o he_o cite_v a_o instance_n of_o one_o sir_n john_n stowel_n who_o by_o the_o article_n of_o exciter_n be_v to_o have_v be_v admit_v to_o composition_n for_o his_o estate_n but_o yet_o contrary_a to_o those_o article_n the_o parliament_n do_v afterward_o order_v his_o estate_n to_o be_v sell_v after_o the_o dissolution_n of_o which_o parliament_n sir_n john_n stowel_n plead_v by_o his_o council_n which_o be_v sergeant_n maynard_n and_o mr._n latch_n that_o that_o order_n be_v dissolve_v by_o the_o dissolution_n of_o that_o parliament_n and_o that_o therefore_o the_o article_n be_v again_o in_o force_n and_o that_o the_o plea_n be_v admit_v to_o be_v good_a and_o sir_n john_n restore_v to_o the_o benefit_n of_o the_o article_n upon_o that_o plea_n even_o by_o bradshaw_n himself_o but_o he_o say_v he_o be_v sorry_a that_o he_o can_v neither_o have_v sir_n william_n jones_n to_o argue_v those_o point_n for_o he_o which_o he_o have_v use_v against_o my_o lord_n shaftsbury_n nor_o sergeant_n maynard_n to_o make_v good_a the_o invalidity_n of_o parliamentary_a order_n after_o dissolution_n but_o he_o say_v that_o it_o be_v not_o his_o fault_n and_o he_o doubt_v not_o but_o he_o be_v before_o more_o just_a judge_n than_o there_o be_v in_o those_o ill_a time_n and_o that_o he_o hope_v that_o the_o liberty_n of_o the_o subject_n be_v not_o now_o more_o precarious_a than_o it_o be_v in_o those_o day_n he_o add_v that_o if_o upon_o such_o order_n man_n can_v not_o be_v bail_v in_o the_o interval_n of_o parliament_n they_o will_v become_v grievance_n equal_a to_o the_o multiplication_n of_o treason_n in_o former_a day_n which_o have_v some_o time_n be_v greedy_o make_v heretofore_o by_o parliament_n in_o distemper_a time_n but_o the_o commons_o have_v never_o be_v quiet_a till_o they_o can_v get_v their_o bear_n chain_v up_o and_o their_o law_n reduce_v to_o the_o old_a standard_n of_o treason_n again_o but_o yet_o those_o thing_n have_v be_v do_v by_o act_n and_o not_o by_o order_n of_o parliament_n he_o desire_v they_o likewise_o to_o remember_v that_o it_o have_v be_v one_o of_o the_o chief_a ground_n of_o the_o late_a war_n betwixt_o the_o king_n and_o his_o parliament_n in_o which_o so_o much_o blood_n have_v be_v shed_v that_o a_o ordinance_n of_o parliament_n shall_v not_o be_v hold_v equal_a to_o a_o act_n of_o parliament_n and_o yet_o those_o be_v order_n of_o both_o house_n and_o now_o say_v he_o shall_v we_o be_v defend_v that_o a_o order_n of_o one_o house_n only_o shall_v be_v equivalent_a to_o a_o law_n and_o shall_v be_v in_o force_n against_o our_o great_a and_o most_o sacred_a law_n of_o liberty_n which_o have_v be_v so_o confirm_v to_o we_o this_o say_v he_o i_o be_o not_o able_a to_o understand_v the_o reason_n of_o nor_o will_v any_o man_n who_o shall_v give_v himself_o the_o least_o leisure_n to_o think_v upon_o it_o he_o then_o say_v he_o desire_v to_o ask_v any_o man_n that_o then_o hear_v he_o or_o any_o commonor_n of_o england_n who_o will_v but_o take_v time_n to_o consider_v this_o case_n which_o may_v be_v any_o man_n be_v in_o england_n whether_o they_o will_v be_v content_v to_o invest_v the_o lord_n with_o such_o a_o inherent_a power_n over_o their_o liberty_n which_o they_o can_v no_o more_o be_v exempt_v from_o then_o the_o peer_n themselves_o and_o he_o say_v that_o the_o lord_n have_v already_o make_v it_o appear_v that_o they_o will_v not_o have_v any_o such_o arbitrary_a power_n place_v in_o they_o for_o that_o they_o have_v refuse_v to_o pass_v
