Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Power, Jurisdiction and Priviledge of Parliament, and the Antiquity of the House of Commons Asserted as Also: A Discourse Concerning the Ecclesiastical Jurisdiction in the Realm of England The Defendant pleads to the Jurisdiction of this Court, and says, That by the Law and Custom of Parliament, The Speaker of the House of Commons fitting, the Parliament, according to the Duty of his Office, as Servant to the House, ought, and ever has accustomed, to Speak, Sign and Publish such Proceedings of that House, and in such manner as he shall be ordered by the Commons so assembled: And that such Speaking, Signing or Publishing, according to the Law and Custom of Parliament, are the Act and Doing of the Commons themselves; and hath ever been so accepted and taken, and not as the Speakers own Acting or doing. And that the Speaker, for such Speaking, Signing or Publishing by him made or done, fitting the Parliament; and by their Order, ought not to answer in any other Court or Place, but in Parliament. He further says, That at the Sessions of Parliament at Westminster, the 15th of March, 31 Car. 2, held by Prorogation, One William Viscount Stafford and others, were impeached by the Commons, before the Lords, according to the Law and Custom of Parliament, of High Treason, For a most execrable Conspiring to kill the King, And to Alter and Subvert the Ancient Government, and the Laws of the Realm. And to Suppress the true Religion established in this Kingdom. And to root up and destroy the Professors of it. And that afterwards, in the Sessions of Parliament, held by Prorogation, at Westminster, 21 Octob. 32 Car. 2. The said Viscount Stafford, at the Prosecution of the Commons, was Tried, and Convicted, and Attainted, in due Form of Law, by the Temporal Lords then assembled in Parliament, for the High Treasons, of which he was so Impeached by the Commons, As by the Record of Parliament does appear. He further says, That in the opening of that Session, The King, in his Speech to the Lords and Commons, charged them to pursue a further Examination of that Conspiracy, with a Strict and Impartial Enquiry. And the King then told them, That he did not think himself nor them secure till that matter was throughly done. He further says, That in the same Sessions of Parliament, last mentioned, which continued at Westminster till 10 Jan. 32 Car. 2. both Houses of Parliament, in pursuance of his Majesties said Direction, made a Strict and Impartial Enquiry after that Conspiracy.
