other_o end_n but_o to_o traduce_v and_o render_v the_o more_o odious_a their_o whole_a right_n before_o the_o people_n and_o those_o of_o the_o generality_n and_o all_o other_o who_o be_v unversed_a

the_o city_n of_o london_n acknowledge_v and_o accept_v the_o same_o right_n and_o privilege_n from_o hence_o it_o follow_v 1_o that_o it_o be_v not_o true_a which_o the_o informer_n feign_v as_o if_o our_o right_n do_v depend_v upon_o the_o sole_a authority_n and_o grant_n of_o the_o king_n 2_o but_o it_o be_v much_o less_o true_a that_o the_o same_o be_v obtain_v without_o consent_n of_o the_o people_n be_v the_o people_n be_v and_o always_o will_v be_v representative_o in_o the_o parliament_n 3_o that_o it_o be_v most_o untrue_a as_o sometime_o it_o be_v suggest_v as_o if_o the_o same_o

same_o have_v be_v detect_v they_o have_v fail_v in_o their_o attempt_n and_o hitherto_o our_o right_n have_v remain_v entire_a 4_o hence_o it_o appear_v that_o our_o right_n by_o the_o accession_n of_o the_o authority_n of_o parliament_n be_v altogether_o become_v irrevocable_a for_o as_o the_o people_n can_v never_o die_v but_o that_o the_o people_n be_v always_o judge_v to_o be_v the_o same_o so_o also_o parliament_n meet_v in_o the_o place_n of_o the_o people_n do_v always_o represent_v the_o same_o and_o one_o parliament_n wherefore_o however_o a_o lawful_a parliament_n may_v abrogate_v
