The counsel on the other side objected that the Bishops had been unlawfully committed, and were therefore not regularly before the Court.

The peers early took into consideration the case of four members of their body who had been impeached in the late reign, but had never been brought to trial, and had, after a long confinement, been admitted to bail by the Court of King's Bench.
