remarkable_a cause_n of_o such_o their_o proceed_n and_o settle_v the_o government_n to_o be_v view_v in_o a_o short_a synopsis_fw-la viz._n 1._o cause_n the_o first_o cause_n be_v in_o respect_n of_o kingly_a government_n set_v up_o in_o our_o nation_n by_o the_o agreement_n of_o the_o people_n for_o their_o protection_n and_o better_a government_n according_a to_o such_o law_n as_o they_o consent_v unto_o which_o be_v take_v away_o for_o these_o reason_n 1._o reason_n kingly_a power_n be_v pervert_v by_o most_o of_o the_o trustee_n and_o most_o notorious_o by_o the_o late_a king_n who_o by_o many_o degree_n exceed_v the_o rest_n such_o his_o vile_a miscarriage_n be_v exemplify_v in_o the_o parliament_n declaration_n by_o about_o fifty_o undeniable_a pregnant_a instance_n needless_a to_o insert_v it_o be_v good_a that_o every_o english_a patriot_n have_v the_o declaration_n by_o he_o in_o these_o confuse_a time_n to_o peruse_v frequent_o 2._o reason_n the_o king_n two_o elder_a son_n appear_v in_o actual_a arm_n against_o the_o parliament_n so_o as_o no_o hope_n of_o future_a security_n can_v be_v expect_v unto_o the_o nation_n from_o they_o 3._o reason_n there_o be_v elder_a right_n of_o supreme_a power_n in_o the_o people_n of_o the_o land_n than_o be_v in_o the_o king_n child_n 4._o reason_n if_o any_o right_a or_o title_n belong_v to_o the_o king_n elder_a son_n the_o same_o be_v forfeit_v by_o the_o father_n treasonable_a act_n as_o in_o other_o case_n even_o in_o office_n of_o inheritance_n it_o be_v wont_a 5._o reason_n the_o king_n young_a child_n equal_o forfeit_v upon_o the_o same_o account_n 6._o reason_n it_o be_v in_o the_o same_o power_n and_o authority_n which_o at_o first_o erect_v a_o king_n for_o common_a good_a and_o afterwards_o find_v he_o to_o pervert_v his_o kingship_n to_o common_a evil_n it_o be_v in_o their_o power_n whether_o they_o will_v continue_v his_o kingly_a power_n or_o change_v it_o to_o a_o better_a 7._o reason_n god_n have_v special_o bless_v free_a state_n who_o former_o be_v oppress_v by_o tyranny_n as_o be_v see_v in_o unite_a netherlands_o and_o other_o 8._o reason_n there_o be_v manifold_a commodious_a advantage_n to_o people_n in_o free-state_n manifold_a oppression_n and_o damage_n be_v under_o monarchy_n vast_a expense_n be_v wont_a to_o be_v by_o court_n luxury_n and_o prodigality_n profuse_a donation_n and_o pension_n for_o the_o promote_a tyranny_n yea_o and_o the_o court_n be_v the_o nursery_n of_o vice_n and_o corrupter_n of_o hopeful_a branch_n of_o noble_a family_n prevent_v in_o a_o free_a state_n see_v declarat_fw-la 2._o cause_n the_o second_o cause_n of_o parliament_n proceed_n touch_v on_o in_o the_o declaration_n respect_v the_o take_v away_o of_o the_o house_n of_o lord_n for_o just_a reason_n viz._n 1._o reason_n the_o lord_n sit_v in_o a_o house_n by_o themselves_o and_o do_v not_o represent_v the_o people_n and_o therefore_o may_v be_v well_o spare_v 2._o reason_n they_o exercise_v a_o negative_a vote_n tend_v to_o obstruct_v much_o 3._o reason_n they_o exercise_v a_o juridical_a power_n over_o the_o person_n and_o estate_n of_o all_o the_o commons_o whereof_o they_o be_v not_o competent_a judge_n 4._o reason_n their_o power_n do_v special_o depend_v on_o the_o absoluteness_n of_o the_o king_n 5._o reason_n the_o commonwealth_n can_v not_o well_o bear_v their_o delay_n in_o time_n of_o exigency_n 6._o liberty_n be_v leave_v to_o such_o lord_n who_o have_v be_v and_o shall_v be_v find_v faithful_a to_o choose_v and_o to_o be_v choose_v representative_n as_o other_o competent_a person_n have_v their_o right_n unto_o see_v declarat_fw-la 3._o cause_n three_o the_o parliament_n give_v satisfactory_a answer_n to_o the_o obvious_a main_a objection_n against_o their_o proceed_n viz._n anticipat_z 1._o it_o be_v intend_v as_o it_o be_v declare_v april_n 1646._o for_o govern_v the_o nation_n by_o king_n lord_n and_o commons_o in_o a_o confidence_n that_o the_o king_n and_o peer_n will_v have_v apply_v themselves_o as_o have_v be_v meet_a but_o they_o whole_o and_o obstinate_o fail_v therein_o and_o there_o be_v no_o stipulation_n on_o both_o side_n it_o can_v not_o be_v esteem_v a_o contract_n so_o that_o the_o commons_o do_v most_o just_o after_o their_o intention_n 2._o although_o some_o member_n of_o the_o house_n of_o commons_o have_v some_o force_n on_o they_o it_o have_v at_o any_o time_n rare_o happen_v in_o time_n of_o parliament_n but_o some_o force_n more_o or_o less_o have_v be_v exercise_v against_o they_o or_o some_o of_o they_o and_o they_o esteem_v to_o be_v parliament_n for_o all_o this_o yet_o no_o breach_n of_o privilege_n can_v be_v charge_v upon_o the_o remain_a part_n in_o the_o house_n which_o remain_v part_n do_v far_o exceed_v such_o authorize_a number_n who_o do_v make_v a_o house_n beyond_o all_o exception_n 3._o the_o parliament_n have_v declare_v
