that_o reason_n can_v serve_v against_o postnati_a in_o scotland_n now_o that_o there_o be_v but_o one_o king_n of_o both_o the_o kingdom_n no_o more_o than_o it_o can_v serve_v against_o those_o that_o be_v bear_v in_o ireland_n or_o gernesey_n or_o jersey_n and_o therefore_o in_o reason_n they_o be_v as_o capable_a of_o land_n in_o england_n as_o the_o king_n subject_n of_o ireland_n and_o
