those_o who_o may_v think_v it_o equal_a in_o power_n to_o the_o parliament_n of_o england_n you_o be_v then_o to_o understand_v that_o the_o slight_a order_n of_o council_n cancel_v all_o edict_n

a_o ratification_n be_v absolute_o essential_a be_v that_o which_o we_o deny_v and_o which_o i_o shall_v endeavour_v to_o prove_v for_o example_n if_o the_o king_n happen_v to_o marry_v with_o any_o

of_o peace_n be_v state_v and_o handle_v the_o establishment_n of_o the_o people_n peace_n whereas_o in_o a_o treaty_n of_o marriage_n there_o be_v nothing_o transact_v but_o the_o concern_v of_o two_o person_n i_o confess_v the_o reason_n seem_v plausible_a but_o easy_a to_o refute_v for_o if_o it_o be_v in_o respect_n of_o the_o people_n interest_n that_o a_o treaty_n of_o peace_n ought_v to_o be_v ratify_v by_o the_o parliament_n why_o be_v not_o the_o treaty_n of_o war_n ratify_v in_o the_o same_o manner_n they_o will_v have_v a_o treaty_n which_o exterminate_v war_n and_o restore_v peace_n to_o a_o kingdom_n instead_o of_o trouble_n and_o confusion_n that_o reign_v there_o before_o to_o be_v subject_a to_o a_o parliamentary_a ratification_n but_o they_o will_v not_o have_v a_o treaty_n of_o war_n that_o banish_v peace_n and_o bring_v in_o disorder_n and_o confusion_n to_o be_v ratify_v by_o parliament_n which_o nevertheless_o be_v institute_v to_o no_o other_o end_n than_o
