74 CHANCELLOR S SPEECH, &c. 



grant them all as liberally as the ancient and true 

 custom of parliament doth warrant, and with the 

 cautions that have ever gone with them ; that is to 

 say, That the privilege be not used for defrauding 

 of creditors and defeating of ordinary justice : that 

 liberty of speech turn not into licence, but be joined 

 with that gravity and discretion, as may taste of 

 duty and love to your sovereign, reverence to your 

 own assembly, and respect to the matters ye handle: 

 that your accesses be at such fit times, as may stand 

 best with his majesty s pleasure and occasions : that 

 mistakings and misunderstandings be rather avoided 

 and prevented, as much as may be, than salved or 

 cleared.
