to_o be_v evident_a to_o we_o especial_o in_o this_o case_n consider_v who_o your_o lordship_n be_v you_o be_v the_o person_n that_o usual_o be_v or_o aught_o to_o be_v present_a at_o the_o delivery_n

before_o we_o as_o you_o see_v by_o the_o parliament-roll_n 1_o henry_n iv_o and_o i_o must_v maintain_v the_o record_n to_o this_o purpose_n that_o the_o government_n be_v vacant_a as_o it_o be_v there_o declare_v and_o as_o it_o be_v express_v in_o our_o vote_n so_o that_o we_o have_v not_o invent_v or_o coin_v a_o word_n for_o our_o turn_n neither_o be_v the_o notion_n new_a it_o be_v a_o word_n that_o have_v be_v use_v before_o in_o a_o case_n as_o near_o this_o as_o any_o can_v be_v but_o it_o be_v object_v that_o that_o shall_v be_v no_o precedent_n because_o of_o what_o follow_v upon_o that_o vacancy_n of_o the_o throne_n i_o desire_v that_o your_o lornship_n will_v read_v the_o record_n the_o next_o thing_n there_o be_v henry_n the_o four_o come_v himself_o and_o say_v he_o claim_v the_o crown_n as_o descend_v from_o henry_n the_o three_o and_o the_o lord_n and_o commons_o assent_v it_o be_v true_a the_o archbishop_n do_v propose_v he_o as_o be_v usual_a at_o

edward_n the_o four_o come_v in_o in_o disaffirmance_n of_o the_o title_n of_o the_o house_n of_o lancaster_n as_o those_o time_n go_v whenever_o there_o be_v any_o turn_n in_o government_n as_o there_o be_v several_a there_o be_v new_a and_o contrary_a declaration_n about_o the_o title_n to_o the_o crown_n make_v constant_o in_o parliament_n and_o what_o one_o parliament_n settle_v another_o

the_o parliament_n roll_v of_o 1_o henry_n vii_o 12.16_o where_o the_o record_n be_v set_v right_o again_o the_o act_n for_o depose_v richard_n the_o second_o be_v indeed_o by_o 1_o edw._n iu_o

in_o henry_n the_o seven_o and_o 1_o henry_n vii_o there_o be_v a_o act_n make_v that_o set_v aside_o all_o the_o act_n and_o attainder_n make_v against_o his_o line_n and_o consequent_o repeal_v 1_o

come_v to_o the_o crown_n will_v not_o endure_v to_o have_v his_o crown_n reckon_v only_o matrimonial_a or_o suffer_v the_o style_n to_o go_v in_o the_o name_n of_o henry_n and_o elizabeth_n as_o he_o must_v have_v do_v if_o he_o have_v stick_v to_o the_o title_n by_o the_o right_a line_n of_o succession_n no_o he_o always_o stand_v up_o for_o his_o own_o title_n though_o he_o have_v the_o

title_n by_o descent_n be_v a_o usurpation_n i_o think_v it_o be_v pretty_a hard_a to_o determine_v what_o title_n he_o do_v govern_v by_o since_o though_o his_o wife_n be_v the_o lineal_a heir_n
