Of the convocation which was assembled with the new parliament, the lower house chose Dr. Atterbury their prolocutor. |
The Lower House, having heard this discourse, proceeded to appoint a prolocutor. |
They chose a man as their prolocutor who had been forward in the worst conduct of the university of Oxford. |
Mr prolocutor Weston disputed with the beer-pot at his elbow, and forgot not his devoirs thereto in the course thereof. |
Nevertheless the prolocutor made a full submission, with which the archbishop was satisfied, and the sentence was repealed. |
The prolocutor absenting himself from the convocation, the archbishop pronounced sentence of contumacy against him. |
