which_o be_v first_o that_o the_o king_n have_v by_o his_o public_a trust_n power_n to_o do_v whatsoever_o there_o be_v no_o law_n against_o so_o that_o from_o hence_o have_v arisen_a the_o

evidence_n this_o be_v the_o sum_n of_o all_o the_o prerogative_n so_o call_v that_o i_o in_o this_o haste_n remember_v just_a or_o unjust_a that_o the_o law_n of_o england_n hold_v forth_o the_o three_o main_a pillar_n upon_o which_o the_o edifice_n of_o prerogative_n stand_v all_o these_o be_v but_o the_o ornament_n thereto_o be_v the_o absolute_a power_n to_o make_v law_n war_n and_o
