the_o parliament_n sit_v by_o the_o king_n writ_n â—ay_n if_o statute_n law_n be_v great_a than_o the_o king_n writ_n it_o can_v be_v deny_v but_o the_o parliament_n sit_v or_o aught_o to_o sit_v by_o something_o great_a than_o the_o king_n writ_n and_o if_o it_o be_v confess_v that_o the_o parliament_n sit_v by_o the_o king_n writ_n but_o do_v not_o act_n by_o the_o king_n writ_n than_o it_o must_v follow_v that_o the_o parliament_n be_v a_o void_a vain_a court_n and_o sit_v to_o no_o purpose_n nay_o it_o must_v also_o follow_v that_o the_o parliament_n be_v of_o less_o authority_n and_o of_o less_o use_n than_o any_o other_o inferior_a court_n forasmuch_o as_o it_o be_v not_o in_o the_o king_n power_n to_o control_n other_o court_n or_o to_o prevent_v they_o from_o sit_v or_o act_v 2._o this_o be_v a_o gross_a non_fw-la sequitur_fw-la the_o king_n power_n be_v in_o himself_o ergo_fw-la it_o be_v not_o derive_v to_o nor_o do_v reside_v virtual_o in_o the_o parliament_n for_o

neither_o frustrate_v nor_o clude_v but_o for_o my_o part_n i_o conceive_v it_o be_v a_o great_a error_n to_o infer_v that_o the_o parliament_n have_v only_o the_o king_n power_n because_o it_o have_v the_o king_n power_n in_o it_o for_o it_o seem_v to_o i_o that_o the_o parliament_n do_v both_o sit_v and_o act_n by_o concurrent_a power_n devolve_v both_o from_o the_o king_n and_o kingdom_n and_o this_o in_o some_o thing_n be_v more_o obvious_a and_o apparent_a then_o in_o other_o for_o by_o what_o power_n do_v the_o parliament_n grant_v subsidy_n to_o the_o king_n if_o only_o by_o the_o power_n which_o the_o king_n give_v than_o the_o king_n may_v take_v subsidy_n without_o any_o grant_n from_o the_o parliament_n and_o if_o it_o be_v so_o by_o a_o power_n which_o the_o people_n give_v to_o the_o parliament_n then_o it_o will_v follow_v the_o parliament_n have_v a_o power_n give_v both_o by_o king_n and_o kingdom_n 3._o the_o send_v proposition_n to_o the_o king_n and_o
