1
The confinement of
the person, in any wise,
is an imprisonment.
I 132.
2
Within the realm the
king may command the
attendance & service of
all his liege men. I 134.
Natural 3.
The original of private
property is probably founded
in nature. I 134.
4
No subject of England
... can be constrained to
pay any aids or taxes ...
.. but such as are imposed
by his own consent,
or that of his representatives
in parliament.
I 135
5
The King ... in judgment
of law ... is ever
present & repeating ...
in all his courts ... nulli
vendemus &c. I 137
6
Says Sr Edwd Coke ... every
subject ... for injury done
to him ... may take his
remedy by the course of
the law, & have justice
& right for the injury
done to him, freely
without sale, fully
without any denial, &
speedily without delay.
I 137
Non-Notoriety — 7
What that law [the
law of the land] is every
subject knows; or may
know if he pleases: for
it depends not I 137.
8
The crown has not
any power of doing
wrong, but merely of
preventing wrong from
being done. I 150
9
To assault by violence
a member of either house,
or his menial servants,
is a high contempt of
parliament. I 160
---page break---
10
The true reason for of requiring
any qualification,
with regard to property,
in voters, is to exclude such
persons as are in so mean
a situation that they
are esteemed to have no
will of their own. I 165
11
Only such are entirely
excluded [from voting]
as has can have no will
of their own. I 166
Fictitious presence 12
Every man in England
is, in judgment of law,
party to the making an
act of parliament, being
present thereat by his
representatives.I 178.
Civil Death 13
A dissolution is the
civil death of the parliament.I 180
14
As our constitution
now stands, the parliament
must expire, or
die a natural death,
at the end of every
seventh year.I . 182
Consent 15
The executive power of
the English nation ... vested
in a single person by
the general consent of
the people.I 183
16
In such the great & independent
society, which
every nation composes,
there is no superior to
resort to but the law
of nature.I 186
King never dies
17
In our law the king
is said never to die, in
his political capacity.
... because immediately
upon the natural death
of Henry ... or Edward,
the king survives in his
successor.I 189.
Feme sole 18
The queen consort ...
... is in all legal proceedings
looked upon as
a feme sole.p.212.
---page break---
19
Treason ... to ... imagine
the death of our lady the
kind's companion.I 216
210
In our law books it is
laid down that peers are
created ... 1. Ad consulendum,
2. Ad defendendum regem . I 220
for which reasons
the law gives them certain
great & high privileges ....
because the law intends,
that they are always assisting
the kind with their
counsel for the common-wealth;
or keeping the
realm in safety by their
prowess and valour.
I 220, 1.
Original Contract 21
The king's prerogative [is
limited] by bounds so certain
& notorious, that it
is impossible he should
ever exceed them, without
the consent of the people;
.... or without ...a violation
of that original
contract, which in all
states impliedly, & in ours
most expressly subsists
between the prince and
the subject. I 230.
22
The powers which are
vested in the crown by
the laws of England, are
necessary for the support
of society; & do not intrench
any further on
our natural liberties,
than is expedient for the
maintenance of our civil
p. 230.
23
Sir Henry Finch lays ...
lays down the law .....
that the king's prerogative
stretcheth not to the doing
any wrong. I. 231
24
The law ... ascribes to the
king .... certain attributes
of a great & transcendent
nature, by which the people
are led to consider
him in the light of
a superior being, & to
pay him ... awful respect.
I 234.
