A89520	An argument or, debate in law: of the great question concerning the militia; as it is now settled by ordinance of both the Houses of Parliament. By which, it is endeavoured, to prove the legalitie of it, and to make it warrantable by the fundamentall laws of the land. In which, answer is also given to all objections that do arise, either directly, or collaterally concerning the same. All which is referred to the judicious reader. by J.M. C.L.	Marsh, John, 1612-1657.; Milton, John, 1608-1674, attributed name.	1642 (1642)	Wing M575; Thomason E119_13; ESTC R18112	46,929	48

without_o reason_n for_o as_o it_o be_v well_o know_v they_o have_v publish_v the_o justice_n and_o integrity_n of_o their_o cause_n to_o the_o whole_a world_n and_o have_v leave_v their_o proceed_n to_o the_o judgement_n and_o determination_n of_o every_o private_a conscience_n so_o that_o clear_o this_o objection_n hold_v not_o then_o if_o the_o judgement_n of_o parliament_n be_v our_o

whatsoever_o now_o for_o the_o objection_n that_o many_o of_o the_o lord_n and_o commons_o do_v never_o consent_v to_o the_o ordinance_n of_o parliament_n for_o that_o they_o be_v with_o his_o
