rise_v up_o into_o so_o high_a request_n but_o take_v the_o argument_n at_o the_o best_a it_o follow_v not_o that_o the_o parliament_n intend_v to_o assume_v the_o sovereign_a authority_n because_o when_o ireland_n be_v in_o rebellion_n england_n in_o combustion_n scotland_n scarce_o quiet_v france_n and_o spain_n in_o arm_n they_o do_v humble_o supplicate_v his_o majesty_n to_o entrust_v for_o a_o short_a and_o limit_v time_n the_o militia_n under_o the_o command_n of_o person_n of_o honour_n that_o the_o lord_n and_o commons_o those_o who_o blood_n and_o estate_n must_v defend_v the_o state_n may_v repose_v faith_n in_o yet_o this_o be_v not_o to_o be_v grant_v and_o the_o fear_n and_o jealousy_n of_o his_o majesty_n best_a kingdom_n and_o most_o obedient_a subject_n hold_v so_o unworthy_a of_o any_o regard_n or_o satisfaction_n that_o they_o be_v esteem_v and_o so_o publish_v for_o frivolous_a and_o false_a pretend_a mere_o to_o obtain_v a_o unjust_a purchase_n out_o of_o the_o king_n prerogative_n for_o the_o nomination_n of_o prime_a officer_n counsellor_n and_o judge_n i_o presume_v that_o request_n result_v out_o of_o the_o precedent_a misgovernment_n and_o be_v intend_v only_o for_o this_o time_n and_o peradventure_o the_o temper_n will_v be_v better_o for_o the_o people_n that_o the_o king_n be_v once_o environ_v with_o a_o wise_a and_o religious_a council_n appoint_v judge_n and_o public_a officer_n who_o the_o people_n may_v if_o there_o be_v cause_n accuse_v and_o the_o parliament_n judge_v nor_o will_v this_o branch_n of_o the_o king_n prerogative_n be_v reach_v at_o by_o the_o people_n if_o the_o judge_n who_o ought_v to_o be_v conservator_n of_o the_o law_n have_v not_o be_v the_o distroyer_n if_o the_o counsel_n of_o a_o few_o even_o in_o parliament_n time_n have_v not_o involve_v the_o whole_a state_n in_o a_o common_a calamity_n and_o contest_v with_o the_o grand_a counsel_n of_o the_o kingdom_n assume_v to_o themselves_o more_o zealous_a affection_n to_o his_o majesty_n a_o great_a care_n of_o the_o commonwealth_n &_o a_o better_a dis●cerning_v what_o be_v necessary_a and_o fit_a for_o both_o yet_o the_o election_n of_o public_a officer_n be_v not_o without_o precedent_n in_o the_o time_n of_o former_a king_n but_o i_o will_v not_o have_v those_o king_n precedent_n to_o his_o majesty_n that_o such_o demand_n may_v not_o be_v precedent_n to_o we_o concern_v the_o perpetual_a dictatorship_n of_o the_o parliament_n it_o may_v be_v demand_v why_o be_v the_o work_n prolong_v by_o they_o who_o ask_v why_o be_v you_o so_o long_o at_o work_n why_o be_v delinquent_n protect_v by_o what_o mean_n be_v difficulty_n object_v how_o come_v this_o rebellion_n in_o ireland_n why_o do_v the_o parliament_n spend_v time_n in_o provide_v for_o their_o own_o safety_n which_o ought_v to_o be_v spend_v in_o redress_n of_o public_a disorder_n and_o vindication_n of_o the_o subject_n from_o oppression_n do_v they_o pretend_v fear_n because_o they_o will_v rule_v let_v his_o majesty_n render_v those_o fear_n apparent_o false_a and_o concur_v more_o hearty_o than_o they_o in_o secure_v the_o kingdom_n let_v he_o grant_v commission_n for_o ireland_n let_v he_o grant_v guard_n for_o the_o parliament_n as_o well_o to_o secure_v their_o fear_n as_o their_o danger_n why_o shall_v his_o majesty_n confirm_v their_o fear_n by_o discharge_v their_o guard_n and_o attempt_v their_o person_n if_o he_o know_v they_o to_o be_v safe_a let_v they_o know_v it_o also_o or_o confute_v their_o fear_n to_o the_o understanding_n of_o the_o whole_a kingdom_n by_o grant_v their_o own_o way_n of_o security_n the_o next_o way_n to_o detect_v those_o apparition_n of_o fear_n if_o they_o be_v false_a and_o when_o the_o religion_n of_o our_o church_n be_v vindicate_v the_o vigour_n of_o the_o law_n renew_v a_o guard_n of_o strength_n and_o terror_n provide_v for_o their_o future_a preservation_n the_o rebellion_n in_o ireland_n quell_v his_o majesty_n revenue_n examine_v and_o repair_v particular_a delinquent_n punish_v the_o court_n of_o justice_n reform_v the_o bank_n found_v by_o the_o industry_n of_o our_o ancestor_n with_o so_o much_o blood_n and_o treasure_n against_o the_o inundation_n of_o the_o prerogative_n or_o malignity_n of_o private_a counsel_n repair_v and_o better_o fortify_v then_o let_v we_o see_v what_o pretence_n will_v be_v make_v for_o continuation_n of_o the_o session_n still_o the_o english_a nation_n will_v not_o doubtless_o sell_v their_o birth_n right_a for_o a_o mess_n of_o pottage_n nor_o change_v the_o government_n of_o a_o prince_n time_n nor_o story_n remember_v any_o other_o in_o these_o kingdom_n of_o extraction_n so_o illustrious_a of_o a_o title_n so_o indubitable_a to_o be_v rule_v by_o their_o equal_a peradventure_o inferior_a neighbour_n to_o that_o allegation_n that_o this_o assembly_n be_v no_o parliament_n in_o the_o king_n absence_n if_o it_o be_v understand_v when_o he_o be_v not_o present_a it_o be_v a_o opinion_n so_o ancient_a as_o since_o his_o majesty_n leave_v the_o parliament_n for_o before_o i_o be_o persuade_v it_o be_v never_o hear_v of_o and_o it_o must_v follow_v thereupon_o as_o have_v be_v answer_v before_o that_o by_o the_o accedentall_a absence_n of_o the_o prince_n or_o in_o sickness_n that_o induce_v stupifaction_n or_o in_o the_o first_o degree_n of_o infancy_n when_o the_o power_n of_o the_o reasonable_a soul_n have_v no_o latitude_n of_o operation_n the_o state_n may_v be_v leave_v without_o mean_n to_o preserve_v itself_o which_o be_v a_o great_a absurdity_n to_o think_v but_o if_o by_o the_o king_n absence_n be_v understand_v the_o want_n of_o his_o voluntary_a concurrence_n in_o confirmation_n of_o the_o act_n and_o ordinance_n of_o both_o house_n and_o that_o in_o such_o case_n they_o be_v no_o parliament_n it_o may_v well_o be_v doubt_v if_o they_o have_v be_v any_o parliament_n during_o this_o session_n for_o the_o act_n that_o have_v pass_v his_o royal_a assent_n so_o much_o amplify_v in_o his_o late_a declaration_n to_o the_o people_n be_v shrode_o suspect_v to_o be_v with_o no_o great_a good_a like_n of_o his_o majesty_n i_o be_o sure_a if_o they_o be_v voluntary_a they_o be_v not_o exhibit_v with_o due_a circumstance_n for_o through_o that_o opinion_n his_o majesty_n have_v lose_v much_o of_o the_o thanks_n due_a for_o such_o transcendent_a grace_n which_o no_o prince_n or_o inferior_a person_n aught_o in_o discretion_n to_o loose_v however_o that_o both_o house_n legal_o convene_v and_o authorise_v to_o sit_v do_v not_o by_o the_o king_n absence_n loose_v the_o essence_n and_o denomination_n of_o a_o parliament_n appear_v by_o precedent_n of_o former_a time_n when_o in_o the_o absence_n of_o a_o prince_n further_o distant_a in_o body_n then_o his_o majesty_n be_v in_o mind_n i_o hope_v the_o estate_n have_v assemble_v themselves_o which_o be_v a_o little_a high_o than_o be_v yet_o in_o dispute_n have_v administer_v oath_n of_o fealty_n to_o the_o subject_n have_v name_v officer_n for_o public_a service_n and_o as_o well_o to_o superintend_v the_o peace_n of_o the_o kingdom_n as_o the_o revenue_n of_o the_o king_n and_o though_o there_o be_v not_o nor_o be_v any_o law_n authorise_v the_o assemble_v of_o a_o parliament_n in_o such_o a_o case_n yet_o be_v the_o legallity_n of_o that_o parliament_n never_o question_v nor_o will_v of_o any_o other_o upon_o the_o same_o or_o the_o like_a occasion_n when_o the_o matter_n to_o be_v treat_v on_o be_v the_o peace_n and_o safety_n of_o the_o kingdom_n whether_o the_o king_n be_v absent_a in_o body_n or_o mind_n it_o change_v not_o the_o question_n much_o but_o that_o which_o be_v a_o short_a answer_n to_o all_o that_o can_v be_v say_v be_v that_o by_o a_o act_n of_o all_o the_o estate_n this_o parliament_n be_v not_o disolveable_a but_o by_o a_o act_n of_o all_o the_o estate_n therefore_o a_o parliament_n until_o that_o act_n be_v pass_v to_o the_o other_o part_n of_o the_o allegation_n that_o major_a part_n of_o both_o house_n have_v leave_v the_o rest_n and_o be_v go_v over_o to_o the_o king_n it_o may_v be_v demand_v why_o do_v not_o then_o his_o majesty_n send_v they_o up_o to_o adjourn_v the_o parliament_n to_o oxford_n or_o cambridge_n be_v they_o so_o fearful_a of_o the_o aprentize_n of_o london_n that_o they_o dare_v not_o appear_v to_o do_v his_o majesty_n so_o great_a a_o service_n by_o shout_v a_o yea_o or_o no_o in_o the_o house_n of_o commons_o how_o willing_o will_v they_o adventure_v a_o battle_n that_o refuse_v to_o speak_v a_o word_n in_o a_o crowd_n true_o it_o be_v the_o way_n to_o put_v a_o end_n to_o all_o the_o controversy_n to_o reverse_v with_o ease_n the_o act_n that_o have_v give_v so_o great_a cause_n of_o repentance_n to_o reduce_v the_o parliament_n to_o term_n of_o due_a obedience_n to_o save_v a_o multitude_n of_o offender_n
