Pagina 395 - Tooke advocating the cause of this celebrated chancellor. His judgments, in his own court, he observed, were always dictated by equity, and never once complained of. The accusations against him were minute, frivolous, and vexatious ; while his sentence, " to be rendered for ever incapable of any place or employment, to be precluded from sitting in parliament, or coming within the verge of the court ; to be fined forty thousand pounds, and remain a prisoner in the Tower during the king's pleasure,"...
