Waive

Observe once more how loose on this occasion, or indeed on other occasions in general, was his way of thinking and his talk.

When a man has made "his election to bring it" (the cause) into the Exchequer Chamber ... he shall not " waive it" - Waive it? - waive what? when a cause having been brought into the Exchequer Chamber has there received judgment (for that is the case in question) what is there to waive? - yes, if he had but commenced it - he might then waive proceeding there any further in it:- but that is not the case.
