that_o the_o law_n of_o your_o realm_n wherein_o you_o shall_v succeed_v be_v such_o for_o it_o shall_v exhibit_v to_o you_o and_o your_o people_n no_o small_a security_n and_o comfort_n 84._o and_o the_o same_o author_n fo._n 84._o cap._n 36._o say_v thus_o that_o the_o king_n by_o his_o officer_n though_o the_o owner_n will_v say_v nay_o may_v take_v necessary_n for_o his_o house_n at_o a_o reasonable_a price_n to_o be_v assess_v by_o the_o constable_n nevertheless_o he_o be_v bind_v by_o the_o law_n to_o pay_v therefore_o either_o present_o or_o at_o a_o day_n to_o be_v limit_v by_o the_o high_a officer_n of_o the_o house_n for_o by_o the_o law_n he_o may_v take_v away_o none_o of_o his_o subject_n good_n without_o due_a satisfaction_n for_o the_o same_o neither_o do_v the_o

i_o will_v endeavour_v to_o be_v short_a in_o the_o rest_n the_o second_o part_n now_o in_o the_o second_o place_n i_o will_v give_v a_o answer_n to_o all_o such_o objection_n that_o have_v be_v make_v by_o the_o counsel_n of_o the_o king_n at_o the_o bar_n and_o by_o some_o of_o my_o brother_n in_o their_o argument_n against_o these_o statute_n 1._o first_o it_o have_v be_v object_v that_o the_o statute_n de_fw-fr tallagio_n non_fw-la concedendo_fw-la be_v not_o a_o statute_n and_o this_o be_v insist_v upon_o by_o mr._n solicitor_n and_o not_o without_o many_o probability_n of_o the_o king_n not_o then_o be_v in_o england_n and_o many_o other_o thing_n by_o he_o allege_v 1._o yet_o because_o it_o have_v be_v general_o agree_v by_o all_o that_o have_v argue_v since_o that_o it_o be_v and_o be_v a_o act_n of_o parliament_n and_o be_v so_o recite_v in_o the_o petition_n of_o right_a i_o will_v say_v no_o more_o to_o that_o but_o thereby_o and_o by_o his_o insist_v so_o much_o upon_o that_o to_o be_v no_o statute_n i_o do_v conceive_v that_o he_o understand_v that_o statute_n to_o be_v as_o indeed_o it_o be_v a_o forcible_a statute_n against_o this_o imposition_n of_o a_o charge_n by_o writ_n without_o the_o consent_n of_o the_o parliament_n 2._o the_o second_o objection_n be_v that_o the_o word_n aid_n tax_n and_o tallage_n do_v not_o extend_v to_o this_o provision_n of_o ship_n of_o war_n and_o man_n for_o defence_n and_o that_o there_o be_v no_o exception_n of_o the_o aid_n which_o be_v due_a to_o the_o king_n majesty_n for_o make_v his_o elder_a son_n knight_n nor_o aid_n for_o marriage_n nor_o other_o aid_n by_o tenure_n the_o answer_n be_v easy_a 2._o for_o the_o word_n of_o the_o statute_n of_o the_o fourteen_o year_n of_o king_n edward_n the_o three_o be_v that_o they_o shall_v not_o from_o henceforth_o be_v charge_v or_o grieve_v to_o make_v any_o aid_n or_o to_o sustain_v any_o charge_n these_o be_v word_n so_o general_a that_o all_o be_v comprehend_v which_o charge_v all_o and_o for_o the_o aid_n of_o make_v the_o elder_a son_n knight_n and_o the_o other_o aid_n they_o be_v not_o general_a to_o charge_v all_o but_o particular_a such_o as_o be_v charge_v by_o tenure_n and_o need_v no_o exception_n and_o yet_o in_o the_o statute_n of_o 25._o ed._n 3._o cap._n 8._o there_o be_v a_o exception_n of_o other_o than_o those_o which_o hold_v by_o such_o tenure_n which_o exception_n be_v needless_a because_o no_o charge_n of_o any_o in_o particular_a be_v within_o any_o of_o the_o act_n of_o parliament_n but_o such_o as_o be_v general_a and_o extend_v to_o charge_v all_o the_o subject_n of_o the_o realm_n as_o this_o do_v there_o have_v be_v another_o objection_n make_v 3._o against_o the_o statute_n of_o 14._o edw._n 3._o that_o it_o shall_v be_v but_o temporary_a for_o the_o time_n of_o the_o continuance_n of_o those_o war_n and_o my_o brother_n berkley_n do_v except_v to_o this_o statute_n because_o it_o be_v not_o mention_v in_o the_o petition_n of_o right_a 3._o to_o this_o there_o need_v no_o other_o answer_n than_o the_o statute_n itself_o first_o the_o preamble_n and_o then_o the_o body_n of_o the_o act_n viz._n that_o from_o henceforth_o they_o shall_v not_o be_v compel_v to_o make_v any_o aid_n or_o sustain_v any_o charge_n but_o by_o the_o common_a consent_n of_o the_o prelate_n earl_n baron_n great_a man_n and_o commons_o of_o our_o realm_n of_o england_n and_o that_o in_o parliament_n this_o be_v a_o absolute_a statute_n it_o be_v true_a that_o the_o latter_a clause_n whereby_o the_o king_n be_v please_v that_o the_o profit_n to_o be_v make_v of_o his_o ward_n marriage_n escheat_n and_o other_o profit_n shall_v be_v dispose_v of_o for_o the_o maintenance_n of_o the_o realm_n of_o

continue_v no_o long_o and_o to_o say_v that_o because_o it_o be_v not_o particular_o mention_v among_o other_o in_o the_o petition_n of_o right_a therefore_o it_o shall_v be_v of_o no_o force_n do_v not_o stand_v with_o any_o reason_n to_o impeach_v the_o statute_n nor_o many_o other_o that_o be_v not_o there_o enumerate_v the_o last_o and_o great_a objection_n that_o have_v be_v make_v 4._o first_o by_o my_o brother_n crawley_n and_o after_o by_o other_o and_o insist_v upon_o by_o my_o brother_n jones_n be_v that_o this_o be_v a_o prerogative_n or_o power_n royal_a so_o incident_a to_o the_o king_n majesty_n that_o it_o can_v be_v take_v away_o by_o any_o act_n of_o parliament_n and_o as_o it_o be_v say_v it_o be_v proprium_fw-la quarto_fw-la modo_fw-la and_o in_o proof_n thereof_o it_o be_v affirm_v that_o when_o there_o be_v in_o the_o beginning_n of_o king_n james_n his_o reign_n a_o purpose_n to_o have_v take_v away_o all_o tenure_n by_o a_o act_n of_o parliament_n and_o to_o have_v shut_v up_o the_o court_n of_o ward_n it_o be_v resolve_v by_o the_o judge_n that_o such_o a_o statute_n have_v be_v void_a first_o i_o do_v agree_v that_o there_o be_v many_o thing_n so_o
