parliament_n according_a to_o the_o usual_a constitution_n and_o first_o we_o will_v see_v what_o may_v be_v say_v for_o it_o that_o the_o pass_n of_o law_n in_o parliament_n where_o the_o major_a part_n of_o the_o object_n 1_o freeholder_n be_v represent_v create_v and_o beget_v a_o right_a understanding_n between_o the_o king_n and_o his_o subject_n that_o it_o be_v not_o the_o intention_n of_o the_o prince_n to_o alter_v the_o old_a law_n and_o introduce_v new_a one_o to_o their_o prejudice_n to_o this_o i_o subscribe_v that_o when_o law_n be_v so_o pass_v it_o confirm_v and_o strengthen_v the_o prince_n both_o by_o the_o person_n and_o purse_n of_o his_o subject_n in_o any_o design_n he_o shall_v undertake_v because_o the_o representatives_n of_o the_o freeholder_n consent_v unto_o it_o to_o this_o i_o subscribe_v that_o parliament_n have_v be_v of_o that_o antiquity_n and_o the_o nation_n so_o habituate_v to_o they_o that_o it_o will_v never_o long_o be_v govern_v peaceable_o without_o they_o to_o this_o i_o subscribe_v that_o the_o grievance_n of_o the_o nation_n can_v never_o be_v so_o well_o represent_v and_o redress_v as_o in_o parliament_n where_o the_o major_a part_n of_o the_o freeholder_n be_v represent_v to_o this_o i_o subscribe_v that_o man_n will_v less_o dare_v to_o abuse_v their_o prince_n or_o country_n by_o any_o sinister_a or_o indirect_a mean_n when_o parliament_n be_v frequent_a and_o free_a to_o this_o i_o subscribe_v the_o frequent_a use_n of_o parliament_n take_v away_o all_o strangeness_n between_o the_o king_n and_o his_o subject_n and_o beget_v a_o confidence_n and_o right_a understanding_n between_o they_o to_o this_o i_o subscribe_v that_o since_o it_o be_v necessary_a that_o every_o prince_n in_o govern_v must_v necessary_o ultimate_o resolve_v his_o confidence_n into_o something_o beside_o the_o law_n to_o which_o upon_o all_o occasion_n he_o may_v betake_v himself_o for_o the_o execution_n and_o defence_n of_o himself_o and_o subject_n and_o this_o must_v be_v by_o a_o constant_a army_n in_o pay_n of_o his_o subject_n according_a to_o the_o institution_n of_o the_o roman_a legion_n or_o out_o of_o a_o diffidence_n of_o his_o own_o subject_n or_o from_o some_o reason_n of_o state_n trust_v the_o protection_n of_o his_o person_n and_o law_n into_o the_o hand_n of_o foreigner_n as_o do_v the_o king_n of_o egypt_n before_o sclymus_n conquer_v they_o or_o as_o the_o king_n of_o france_n now_o do_v in_o the_o hand_n of_o switz_n and_o scot_n or_o he_o must_v betake_v himself_o to_o the_o protection_n of_o a_o mercenary_a army_n make_v up_o of_o his_o subject_n and_o foreiner_n as_o the_o turk_n janissary_n and_o spahi_n be_v or_o establish_v his_o security_n and_o refuge_n up-the_a affection_n of_o his_o subject_n and_o intrust_v they_o with_o the_o militia_n in_o such_o manner_n as_o have_v be_v use_v heretofore_o in_o england_n and_o that_o this_o agree_v better_a with_o the_o

these_o may_v be_v add_v that_o tacitus_n in_o the_o life_n of_o agricola_n make_v it_o one_o great_a cause_n of_o the_o roman_n conquer_a our_o ancestor_n that_o they_o consult_v not_o in_o common_a
