the_o power_n of_o the_o militia_n that_o remain_v though_o never_o so_o sure_o settle_v in_o the_o king_n hand_n can_v never_o bite_v this_o nation_n nor_o can_v the_o noise_n of_o the_o commission_n of_o array_n entitle_v the_o king_n unto_o any_o such_o vast_a power_n as_o be_v pretend_v for_o though_o it_o be_v grant_v that_o the_o commission_n of_o array_n be_v amend_v by_o the_o parliament_n

second_o if_o the_o commission_n of_o array_n thus_o mend_v be_v to_o serve_v as_o a_o rule_n of_o array_n for_o the_o future_a then_o there_o be_v a_o rule_n beyond_o which_o henry_n the_o four_o
