that_o will_v use_v they_o might_n and_o he_o that_o will_v not_o might_n choose_v and_o this_o in_o short_a time_n will_v bring_v mere_a confusion_n into_o the_o church_n of_o god_n which_o i_o

regal_a power_n have_v aught_o to_o do_v with_o they_o dare_v he_o speak_v out_o second_o because_o it_o be_v a_o usurpation_n of_o power_n over_o the_o gift_n and_o grace_n which_o god_n have_v

to_o god_n glory_n and_o the_o comfort_n of_o themselves_o and_o other_o and_o yet_o in_o the_o public_a service_n of_o god_n submit_v to_o that_o set_a form_n of_o god_n worship_n which_o be_v

of_o lawyer_n to_o
and_o by_o the_o council-table_n the_o court_n of_o star-chamber_n and_o high-commission_n and_o in_o convocation_n and_o because_o many_o more_o thing_n so_o do_v be_v to_o come_v in_o the_o next_o head_n concern_v the_o law_n i_o humble_o crave_v leave_v for_o avoid_v tedious_a repetition_n to_o say_v it_o once_o for_o all_o that_o no_o act_n do_v by_o any_o of_o these_o either_o by_o full_a consent_n or_o major_a part_n which_o involve_v the_o rest_n aught_o to_o be_v charge_v single_o against_o i_o and_o that_o for_o these_o reason_n follow_v 1._o first_o because_o this_o be_v not_o peccare_fw-la cum_fw-la multis_fw-la for_o they_o meet_v not_o there_o in_o a_o relation_n as_o multi_fw-la but_o as_o vnum_fw-la aggregatum_fw-la as_o body_n make_v one_o by_o law_n and_o therefore_o the_o act_n do_v by_o they_o be_v act_n of_o those_o body_n not_o of_o any_o one_o man_n sit_v in_o they_o and_o in_o this_o sense_n a_o parliament_n be_v one_o body_n consist_v of_o many_o and_o

prepare_v any_o man_n to_o a_o sentence_n one_o way_n or_o other_o in_o any_o one_o of_o these_o court_n or_o place_n 3._o three_o because_o in_o those_o court_n of_o judicature_n there_o be_v the_o assistance_n of_o able_a judge_n lawyer_n and_o divine_n for_o direction_n and_o how_o can_v that_o be_v a_o treason_n in_o i_o which_o be_v not_o make_v so_o much_o as_o a_o misdemeanour_n in_o any_o of_o the_o rest_n 4._o four_o because_o the_o act_n of_o this_o present_a parliament_n which_o have_v take_v away_o the_o star-chamber_n and_o the_o high-commission_n and_o bound_v the_o
