draw_v to_o its_o period_n we_o can_v neither_o endure_v its_o disease_n nor_o the_o remedy_n and_o herein_o this_o parliament_n be_v most_o unhappy_a second_o because_o it_o can_v be_v break_v

as_o be_v inconsistent_a with_o the_o nature_n of_o parliament_n and_o will_v strike_v dead_a the_o very_a root_n of_o they_o if_o they_o be_v general_o believe_v first_o that_o if_o the_o king_n

three_o that_o the_o major_a part_n in_o parliament_n be_v not_o considerable_a when_o many_o be_v absent_a or_o dissent_v but_o to_o stay_v until_o all_o or_o almost_o all_o be_v present_a and_o

and_o deceive_v five_o that_o parliament_n may_v do_v dishonourable_a nay_o treasonable_a acts._n and_o that_o this_o parliament_n have_v be_v so_o blind_v by_o some_o few_o malignant_n as_o to_o abet_v treason_n in_o sir_n john_n hotham_n answer_v to_o the_o 19_o proposition_n p._n 2._o see_v the_o answer_n to_o the_o declaration_n may_v 26._o p._n 1._o 2._o 11._o and_o 28._o 29._o here_o
