Then the House went into Debate of several Questions

And, after a long Time spent therein,
Several Questions were offered, by several Peers, to
be asked the Judges in Westm'r Hall;
any Peer to ask the Judges what Question he pleases.
And it was agreed by the House, "That any Peer
might ask, and oblige the Judges to answer, whatever
Questions they pleased; the Questions to be asked as
from themselves, having first proposed them to the
High Steward."
House called.
Then, the House being called over, and the Earl of
Sussex and Lord Sidney absent; it is ORDERED, That
the Consideration thereof shall be adjourned until after
the Trial.
Then the House was adjourned during Pleasure, to

And after some little Time, the House was resumed.

The Lord High Steward asked the Question to the

the Lord Mohun's Counsel and the Judges were heard
to it.
Judges, and Prisoners Counsel heard, to Questions asked by Peers.
Then also several other Questions were proposed by
some Peers; and asked the Judges by the Lord High
Steward, as above directed. And the Prisoner's Counsel
and the Judges were also heard to them.
Which done;
Adjourn to the House.
The House was adjourned to the House of Peers
above, and there resumed.
ORDERED, That the Lights be got ready in Westminster Hall.
Then, after some Debate, it was agreed and ordered
as followeth:
Counsel on both Sides to be heard to Questions asked by Peers, if needful.
"That, when this House shall come into Westm. Hall,
the Lord High Steward is to declare, That every Peer
may ask what Question he please, for his own Information; and that the Counsel for the Prisoner may
be heard to it, and Their Majesties Counsel also, if
they think fit: And if either Side shall not speak to
the Question, it is to be understood that they think
it not needful; and that the House will then hear
the Judges on the several Questions to which they are
to answer."
Peers to take their Places regularly.
ORDERED, That every Peer shall first take his Place
in Westminster Hall according to his Precedence; and
that when they are to return, they rise from their Seats
One by One, as they are to walk back.
Adjourn to Westm. Hall.
Then the House was adjourned into Westminster Hall;
and the Peers and others went in the same Manner as
