fit or desire; and in case the said Sir Tho. Malett cannot, within Three Months after such his Enlargement,
procure the said Sir John Temple to be enlarged of his
Imprisonment, that then the said Sir Thomas Malett
shall, within Twenty Days after the said Three Months
expired, return and appear in the House of Peers, and
submit himself to their Imprisonment again: Provided
always, and the Intent and Meaning of their Lordships
and the House of Peers was and is, and so Ordered,

appear that the said Sir John Temple is enlarged;

said Imprisonment, and be at Liberty to go where he
shall think fit or desire. If, therefore, the said Sir
