a_o law-book_n to_o back_v i_o i_o remember_v that_o my_o lord_n hobart_n say_v that_o zeal_n and_o indignation_n be_v fervent_a passion_n the_o city_n of_o london_n have_v great_a indignation_n against_o the_o papist_n for_o this_o conspiracy_n against_o the_o king_n and_o kingdom_n and_o the_o religion_n establish_v by_o law_n there_o be_v no_o disaffection_n in_o the_o city_n at_o this_o time_n when_o this_o petition_n be_v make_v sure_a and_o i_o wonder_v that_o any_o man_n shall_v say_v that_o know_v london_n and_o be_v acquaint_v with_o it_o then_o and_o look_n upon_o this_o petition_n which_o pass_v nemine_fw-la contradicente_fw-la that_o they_o have_v such_o a_o intention_n as_o be_v insinuate_v and_o pray_v let_v he_o read_v the_o name_n of_o the_o worthy_a alderman_n that_o then_o sit_v upon_o the_o bench_n and_o the_o other_o name_n of_o the_o common_a council-man_n then_o present_a and_o then_o let_v he_o say_v if_o without_o reflection_n the_o king_n have_v more_o loyal_a subject_n in_o the_o city_n of_o london_n than_o these_o man_n be_v and_o do_v you_o think_v if_o there_o have_v be_v in_o it_o any_o sedition_n or_o any_o of_o those_o ill_a quality_n that_o make_v up_o the_o ill_a adverb_n which_o be_v join_v to_o it_o in_o the_o replication_n not_o one_o of_o all_o those_o loyally-disposed_a man_n will_v have_v speak_v against_o it_o but_o alas_o all_o of_o it_o pass_v nemine_fw-la contradicente_fw-la my_o lord_n i_o say_v that_o if_o the_o matter_n of_o it_o be_v justifiable_a as_o i_o think_v it_o be_v than_o all_o these_o word_n will_v signify_v nothing_o if_o there_o be_v never_o so_o many_o more_o of_o they_o and_o the_o present_n and_o carry_v of_o it_o to_o the_o king_n that_o be_v no_o offence_n that_o be_v not_o so_o much_o as_o pretend_v to_o be_v one_o and_o my_o lord_n i_o think_v it_o a_o very_a harsh_a translation_n of_o the_o word_n into_o latin_a when_o the_o petition_n say_v that_o the_o parliament_n proceed_n or_o the_o public_a justice_n receive_v a_o interruption_n to_o put_v that_o word_n of_o obstructionem_fw-la in_fw-la true_o i_o think_v a_o better_a word_n may_v have_v be_v find_v to_o express_v the_o soft_a expression_n in_o the_o petition_n and_o they_o need_v not_o have_v put_v that_o hard_a violent_a word_n obstructionem_fw-la when_o to_o make_v english_a of_o it_o they_o translate_v it_o interruption_n but_o my_o lord_n they_o do_v admit_v i_o say_v that_o the_o make_n and_o present_v of_o it_o to_o the_o king_n be_v not_o the_o offence_n so_o much_o as_o the_o publish_n of_o it_o by_o which_o it_o be_v expose_v to_o many_o other_o beside_o now_o to_o excuse_v that_o the_o answer_n we_o give_v be_v this_o and_o it_o be_v that_o which_o will_v carry_v a_o very_a reasonable_a ground_n of_o justification_n in_o it_o certain_a citizen_n that_o be_v private_a man_n have_v petition_v the_o common_a council_n and_o thereby_o they_o be_v importune_v to_o make_v know_v the_o desire_n of_o the_o city_n to_o the_o king_n and_o it_o be_v reasonable_a to_o make_v know_v to_o those_o citizen_n what_o the_o common_a council_n have_v do_v to_o prevent_v false_a rumour_n which_o we_o know_v be_v rife_a enough_o in_o those_o day_n and_o to_o show_v that_o there_o be_v nothing_o ill_a in_o it_o we_o do_v print_v it_o and_o it_o be_v also_o all_o drive_v at_o the_o common_a interest_n at_o the_o king_n safety_n the_o preservation_n of_o the_o church_n and_o the_o government_n establish_v all_o this_o they_o do_v desire_n may_v be_v know_v to_o these_o citizen_n and_o all_o other_o that_o inquire_v about_o it_o and_o therefore_o they_o print_v it_o to_o evidence_n that_o there_o be_v nothing_o of_o ill_o intend_v in_o it_o and_o i_o do_v wonder_n i_o must_v confess_v that_o this_o objection_n of_o the_o publish_n of_o this_o petition_n shall_v be_v so_o much_o insist_v upon_o for_o they_o say_v that_o the_o mayor_n commonalty_n and_o citizen_n of_o the_o city_n of_o london_n do_v it_o and_o say_v not_o any_o thing_n of_o the_o common_a council_n that_o they_o do_v print_v it_o now_o they_o that_o do_v vote_n it_o know_v it_o without_o print_v and_o it_o be_v allege_v in_o the_o plead_n and_o confess_v by_o the_o demurrer_n that_o the_o mayor_n commonalty_n and_o citizen_n of_o london_n that_o be_v the_o corporation_n consist_v of_o above_o 50000_o man_n which_o can_v well_o be_v intend_v otherwise_o why_o then_o here_o be_v a_o petition_n that_o be_v agree_v to_o be_v well_o enough_o lodge_v as_o to_o the_o person_n that_o vote_v it_o it_o be_v the_o liberty_n of_o the_o subject_a to_o petition_v and_o if_o this_o have_v be_v only_o present_v to_o the_o king_n though_o it_o have_v be_v by_o those_o 50000_o man_n nay_o if_o it_o have_v be_v by_o 10000_o man_n who_o have_v be_v the_o corporation_n it_o have_v be_v well_o enough_o so_o it_o have_v not_o be_v print_v but_o only_o keep_v private_a to_o themselves_o why_o then_o it_o be_v very_o strange_a that_o what_o be_v know_v to_o all_o london_n so_o great_a a_o part_n of_o the_o kingdom_n shall_v be_v lawful_a but_o it_o shall_v be_v heinous_o unlawful_a to_o send_v the_o news_n of_o it_o further_o it_o go_v further_a than_o the_o city_n of_o london_n and_o therefore_o it_o be_v such_o a_o offence_n as_o shall_v be_v a_o forfeiture_n of_o the_o corporation_n my_o lord_n there_o be_v the_o case_n of_o lake_n and_o king_n the_o petition_n to_o the_o parliament_n be_v scandalous_a in_o itself_o yet_o it_o stand_v protect_v be_v present_v to_o the_o parliament_n and_o it_o be_v lawful_a to_o print_v it_o provide_v it_o be_v deliver_v to_o a_o committée_n of_o parliament_n or_o only_o to_o those_o that_o be_v member_n though_o it_o be_v say_v there_o that_o the_o print_n of_o it_o be_v a_o great_a publish_n for_o the_o composer_n corrector_n and_o other_o person_n that_o be_v concern_v in_o the_o press_n read_v every_o letter_n of_o it_o but_o it_o be_v answer_v that_o printing_n be_v but_o a_o more_o expeditious_a way_n of_o write_v and_o if_o he_o have_v employ_v 20_o clerk_n it_o have_v be_v a_o great_a publish_n than_o three_o or_o four_o printer_n possible_o the_o printer_n may_v not_o read_v it_o or_o not_o be_v able_a to_o read_v it_o well_o or_o not_o all_o of_o they_o read_v it_o at_o that_o time_n now_o here_o my_o lord_n sure_o it_o be_v lawful_a to_o acquaint_v the_o citizen_n what_o they_o have_v do_v if_o you_o take_v it_o to_o be_v the_o act_n of_o the_o common_a council_n and_o the_o common_a council_n to_o be_v the_o representative_a of_o the_o city_n it_o be_v always_o agree_v by_o the_o house_n of_o commons_o that_o any_o member_n may_v send_v the_o vote_n to_o those_o that_o send_v they_o thither_o and_o who_o they_o represent_v they_o have_v blame_v indeed_o man_n for_o send_v the_o debate_n but_o never_o for_o communicate_v the_o vote_n and_o what_o they_o may_v do_v by_o write_v that_o they_o may_v do_v by_o print_v why_o then_o may_v not_o the_o citizen_n of_o london_n who_o by_o custom_n choose_v those_o common_a council_n man_n well_o desire_v to_o know_v and_o may_v well_o know_v what_o they_o have_v do_v and_o than_o what_o they_o may_v do_v by_o write_v they_o may_v by_o print_v for_o that_o be_v but_o another_o way_n though_o a_o more_o suitable_a and_o compendious_a way_n of_o exhibit_v any_o thing_n that_o you_o will_v have_v go_v to_o many_o and_o if_o it_o be_v lawful_a to_o impart_v it_o to_o all_o the_o city_n and_o all_o the_o city_n do_v know_v it_o though_o it_o do_v go_v further_o it_o be_v no_o matter_n for_o what_o be_v know_v to_o london_n may_v very_o well_o be_v know_v to_o all_o the_o nation_n beside_o without_o offence_n if_o it_o do_v go_v further_o beside_o it_o shall_v never_o be_v intend_v it_o be_v publish_v further_o or_o that_o any_o other_o know_v of_o it_o for_o it_o be_v say_v to_o be_v publish_v in_o the_o parish_n of_o st._n michael_n bassishaw_o in_o the_o ward_n of_o bassishaw_n and_o that_o be_v in_o london_n to_o the_o citizen_n of_o london_n and_o so_o they_o only_o talk_v of_o it_o among_o themselves_o beside_o the_o main_a thing_n i_o go_v upon_o which_o be_v if_o there_o be_v no_o ill_a in_o the_o thing_n itself_o the_o ea_fw-la intention_n can_v make_v no_o crime_n by_o a_o bare_a affirmation_n which_o we_o deny_v and_o if_o it_o may_v be_v well_o say_v or_o do_v it_o be_v lawful_a to_o print_v it_o and_o the_o publication_n be_v no_o offence_n neither_o my_o lord_n the_o next_o point_n i_o come_v to_o be_v this_o that_o a_o corporation_n can_v possible_o commit_v a_o capital_a crime_n or_o any_o other_o crime_n against_o the_o peace_n and_o i_o shall_v offer_v this_o dilemma_n either_o it_o

these_o counsel_n or_o the_o king_n and_o his_o parliament_n be_v interrupt_v this_o be_v not_o do_v to_o make_v such_o a_o high_a crime_n of_o this_o i_o do_v not_o understand_v i_o will_v not_o be_v think_v to_o speak_v any_o thing_n to_o justify_v that_o which_o be_v real_o a_o crime_n but_o this_o be_v that_o i_o say_v it_o be_v not_o in_o law_n unlawful_a for_o we_o to_o petition_v the_o king_n or_o address_v to_o he_o but_o my_o lord_n to_o take_v off_o the_o edge_n of_o this_o business_n i_o shall_v beg_v leave_n to_o read_v to_o your_o lordship_n a_o speech_n of_o the_o king_n make_v the_o 6_o of_o march_n follow_v and_o therein_o there_o be_v these_o word_n the_o further_a prosecution_n of_o the_o plot._n my_o lord_n let_v any_o man_n read_v and_o spell_n and_o see_v how_o in_o substance_n the_o word_n in_o our_o petition_n differ_v from_o the_o word_n of_o the_o king_n make_v those_o law_n necessary_a for_o the_o security_n of_o himself_o and_o the_o kingdom_n and_o this_o speak_v the_o 6_o of_o march_n when_o this_o very_a petition_n now_o complain_v of_o be_v present_v in_o january_n or_o february_n before_o and_o there_o be_v no_o parliament_n between_o no_o man_n will_v say_v that_o there_o be_v law_n sufficient_a for_o the_o security_n of_o the_o king_n and_o kingdom_n when_o the_o king_n himself_o speak_v of_o the_o necessity_n of_o make_v such_o once_o so_o then_o those_o law_n that_o be_v prepare_v receive_v a_o interruption_n the_o lord_n be_v not_o try_v be_v not_o that_o a_o interruption_n of_o justice_n since_o they_o can_v be_v try_v no_o where_o else_o as_o must_v be_v grant_v and_o the_o king_n recommend_v it_o to_o they_o as_o not_o do_v but_o necessary_a to_o be_v do_v so_o the_o king_n say_v before_o and_o so_o it_o be_v employ_v here_o there_o be_v no_o such_o thing_n say_v in_o the_o petition_n that_o the_o king_n do_v interrupt_v justice_n and_o the_o proceed_n of_o the_o parliament_n it_o be_v a_o inference_n and_o a_o consequence_n make_v by_o wit_n and_o art_n not_o that_o the_o king_n do_v interrupt_v or_o intend_v to_o interrupt_v justice_n but_o it_o say_v by_o the_o prorogation_n of_o the_o parliament_n the_o public_a justice_n receive_v a_o interruption_n my_o lord_n suppose_v at_o that_o time_n there_o have_v be_v a_o pestilence_n here_o and_o the_o king_n have_v be_v as_o much_o resolve_v to_o meet_v his_o two_o house_n as_o they_o he_o but_o by_o reason_n of_o the_o pestilence_n he_o be_v necessitate_v and_o force_v to_o make_v a_o prorogation_n then_o there_o come_v such_o a_o petition_n from_o the_o city_n and_o say_v that_o by_o reason_n of_o this_o prorogation_n those_o bill_n that_o be_v depend_v do_v not_o pass_v and_o the_o public_a justice_n receive_v a_o interruption_n what_o be_v the_o offence_n of_o this_o it_o be_v all_o true_a if_o there_o be_v bill_n depend_v and_o impeachment_n that_o can_v no_o other_o where_o be_v try_v they_o do_v receive_v interruption_n by_o a_o prorogation_n can_v any_o man_n say_v this_o be_v false_a the_o charge_n in_o the_o replication_n be_v that_o we_o do_v false_o and_o malicious_o say_v what_o that_o which_o be_v true_a and_o that_o which_o the_o king_n have_v say_v before_o and_o that_o which_o the_o lord_n and_o commons_o say_v after_o he_o that_o till_o those_o thing_n be_v do_v they_o be_v not_o safe_a and_o those_o thing_n as_o yet_o be_v not_o do_v my_o lord_n there_o be_v this_o further_a in_o it_o the_o petition_n be_v set_v forth_o in_o haec_fw-la verba_fw-la and_o therefore_o i_o may_v take_v any_o thing_n out_o of_o it_o to_o explain_v it_o and_o restore_v it_o to_o itself_o for_o this_o indeed_o be_v a_o very_a restrain_a construction_n of_o the_o petition_n it_o say_v when_o this_o interruption_n by_o the_o prorogation_n be_v receive_v that_o the_o king_n for_o urgent_a cause_n and_o very_o good_a reason_n do_v prorogue_v the_o parliament_n it_o be_v his_o prerogative_n to_o do_v so_o and_o god_n forbid_v but_o he_o shall_v have_v it_o i_o think_v without_o doubt_n we_o shall_v be_v more_o at_o a_o loss_n for_o want_n of_o that_o prerogative_n than_o we_o can_v by_o the_o use_n of_o it_o it_o be_v i_o and_o i_o believe_v every_o good_a man_n opinion_n that_o that_o prerogative_n be_v very_o necessary_a and_o profitable_a for_o we_o all_o but_o it_o be_v the_o consequence_n of_o it_o that_o this_o interruption_n of_o justice_n be_v receive_v nay_o we_o be_v so_o far_o from_o say_v that_o the_o king_n do_v interrupt_v justice_n or_o intend_v it_o that_o we_o say_v we_o do_v hope_v the_o king_n gracious_a intention_n be_v only_o to_o make_v way_n for_o the_o better_a concurrence_n of_o his_o majesty_n and_o his_o parliament_n the_o king_n do_v for_o great_a cause_n and_o best_a know_v to_o himself_o who_o have_v the_o prerogative_n prorogue_v the_o parliament_n whereby_o as_o a_o mere_a consequence_n not_o as_o the_o king_n intention_n the_o public_a justice_n be_v interrupt_v nay_o this_o we_o affirm_v be_v with_o a_o good_a intention_n in_o the_o king_n that_o he_o may_v the_o better_o be_v enable_v to_o concur_v with_o his_o parliament_n as_o be_v set_v forth_o in_o the_o petition_n can_v there_o be_v any_o thing_n more_o proper_o say_v it_o be_v the_o great_a justification_n of_o the_o prorogation_n that_o can_v be_v the_o king_n have_v prorogue_v the_o parliament_n what_o to_o do_v why_o justice_n have_v in_o view_n receive_v a_o interruption_n but_o not_o in_o the_o intention_n of_o the_o king_n we_o know_v what_o the_o meaning_n of_o it_o be_v and_o so_o we_o set_v forth_o in_o our_o very_a petition_n it_o be_v to_o gain_v time_n that_o he_o may_v the_o better_o concur_v with_o his_o parliament_n it_o be_v a_o great_a commendation_n of_o the_o king_n purpose_n instead_o of_o charge_v he_o with_o injustice_n that_o he_o do_v resolve_v to_o concur_v with_o his_o parliament_n for_o such_o end_n and_o according_o do_v prorogue_v the_o parliament_n now_o the_o attorney_n general_n have_v put_v in_o that_o it_o be_v ea_fw-la intention_n there_o be_v the_o sting_n of_o the_o business_n to_o put_v in_o those_o word_n to_o make_v that_o which_o we_o may_v lawful_o speak_v of_o itself_o to_o be_v a_o offence_n but_o true_o that_o signify_v just_a nothing_o it_o can_v never_o hurt_v a_o thing_n that_o be_v true_a it_o have_v great_a authority_n in_o it_o if_o it_o be_v apply_v to_o a_o thing_n that_o be_v unlawful_a but_o if_o in_o substance_n it_o be_v true_a and_o the_o thing_n itself_o justifiable_a those_o word_n make_v nothing_o in_o the_o case_n and_o i_o think_v i_o need_v not_o argue_v that_o point_n but_o refer_v myself_o to_o the_o great_a case_n that_o be_v in_o westminster-hall_n and_o that_o be_v the_o reversal_n of_o the_o judgement_n give_v in_o this_o court_n against_o my_o lord_n hollis_n which_o be_v a_o reversal_n in_o parliament_n and_o be_v print_v and_o the_o last_o impression_n of_o mr._n justice_n coke_n report_n by_o order_n of_o parliament_n and_o there_o they_o explode_v all_o the_o notion_n of_o ea_fw-la intention_n and_o this_o business_n a_o man_n speak_v word_n that_o he_o may_v speak_v in_o parliament_n though_o i_o know_v not_o whether_o he_o may_v or_o no_o but_o the_o great_a thing_n be_v if_o word_n that_o in_o

this_o have_v a_o kind_n of_o fatality_n in_o it_o and_o that_o be_v this_o that_o it_o be_v do_v with_o a_o ill_a mind_n by_o a_o corporation_n that_o have_v no_o mind_n at_o all_o mr._n attorney_n
