the_o aforesaid_a act_n law_n and_o privilege_n some_o thing_n may_v be_v object_v yet_o the_o reversals_n of_o rodolph_n and_o mathias_n now_o already_o produce_v do_v prove_v a_o undoubted_a right_n

their_o proper_a liberty_n have_v strong_o maintain_v and_o preserve_v the_o free_a and_o absolute_a power_n of_o elect_v king_n so_o that_o none_o whosoever_o be_v able_a lawful_o to_o pretend_v

first_o of_o all_o he_o cit_v privilege_n and_o in_o the_o margin_n 1._o the_o golden_a bull_n imperial_a of_o charles_n the_o four_o but_o the_o author_n of_o the_o information_n seem_v to_o have_v put_v the_o same_o of_o purpose_n out_o of_o the_o list_n of_o the_o other_o fundamental_a reason_n for_o by_o the_o former_a allege_a word_n of_o the_o say_a bull_n it_o be_v manifest_a that_o the_o

and_o to_o any_o one_o look_v well_o into_o this_o information_n it_o may_v easy_o appear_v first_o that_o the_o same_o be_v call_v the_o golden_a bohemian_a bull_n in_o title_n only_o second_o that_o it_o be_v no_o other_o thing_n then_o the_o confirmation_n of_o the_o privilege_n of_o frederick_n the_o second_o three_o further_n that_o nothing_o else_o be_v demand_v from_o the_o deputy_n of_o the_o state_n at_o that_o time_n who_o name_n be_v prefix_v in_o the_o say_a writing_n four_o the_o word_n of_o the_o say_a writing_n do_v testify_v the_o same_o fiflt_o therefore_o that_o the_o clause_n of_o the_o succession_n of_o the_o royal_a issue_n annex_v by_o charles_n the_o four_o to_o the_o advantage_n of_o himself_o and_o his_o child_n be_v insert_v to_o the_o great_a prejudice_n of_o the_o liberty_n of_o the_o bohemian_n six_o neither_o do_v the_o bohemian_n ever_o allow_v the_o same_o also_o in_o late_a time_n although_o there_o be_v many_o emperor_n of_o the_o house_n of_o

pretence_n or_o claim_n there_o be_v yet_o in_o the_o say_a confirmation_n this_o clause_n in_o case_n or_o event_n where_o the_o male_a or_o female_a not_o suruive_v ambiguity_n or_o by_o any_o other_o way_n shall_v happen_v to_o be_v vacant_a by_o the_o force_n of_o this_o confirmation_n and_o clause_n in_o other_o place_n allege_v against_o the_o bohemian_n it_o seem_v easy_a to_o prove_v that_o these_o thing_n make_v for_o the_o state_n and_o that_o the_o vacancy_n of_o the_o kingdom_n do_v not_o simple_o and_o mere_o consist_v in_o the_o default_n of_o heir_n male_n or_o female_a but_o also_o in_o other_o default_n but_o howsoever_o this_o be_v daily_a practice_n as_o be_v aforesaid_a be_v altogether_o contrary_a to_o the_o strict_a restraint_n of_o this_o confirmation_n and_o
