this_o question_n be_v never_o stir_v in_o till_o now_o have_v it_o be_v stir_v in_o no_o question_n but_o it_o have_v be_v reject_v the_o people_n of_o england_n will_v have_v hold_v it_o very_o strange_a that_o they_o can_v not_o have_v dispose_v of_o the_o person_n of_o their_o own_o king_n or_o that_o a_o king_n of_o england_n can_v not_o have_v go_v from_o whitehall_n to_o richmond_n or_o hampton-court_n without_o the_o will_n and_o appointment_n of_o the_o council_n of_o scotland_n they_o will_v have_v think_v they_o have_v make_v a_o evil_a bargain_n by_o such_o a_o union_n for_o before_o the_o union_n they_o may_v have_v dispose_v of_o the_o person_n of_o their_o prince_n but_o after_o not_o and_o since_o they_o conceive_v that_o by_o the_o addition_n of_o scotland_n there_o be_v a_o addition_n of_o charge_n they_o will_v have_v be_v very_o sorry_a withal_o to_o have_v have_v a_o addition_n of_o servility_n since_o the_o beginning_n of_o the_o world_n there_o be_v never_o before_o such_o a_o contention_n about_o the_o person_n of_o a_o king_n the_o greek_n and_o trojan_n do_v contend_v for_o a_o long_a time_n in_o fight_n about_o the_o dead_a body_n of_o partroclus_fw-la which_o of_o they_o shall_v have_v it_o but_o here_o be_v not_o a_o contention_n about_o the_o dead_a body_n of_o a_o private_a man_n but_o about_o the_o live_a body_n of_o a_o king_n neither_o do_v we_o contend_v as_o they_o do_v who_o shall_v have_v his_o person_n but_o here_o you_o do_v contend_v as_o far_o as_o i_o conceive_v who_o shall_v not_o have_v it_o your_o brethren_n of_o scotland_n say_v positive_o they_o will_v not_o have_v the_o king_n person_n upon_o any_o condition_n whatsoever_o it_o be_v now_o above_o six_o month_n past_a that_o you_o vote_v in_o this_o house_n the_o demand_n of_o the_o king_n person_n but_o the_o lord_n refuse_v to_o join_v with_o you_o ever_o since_o until_o this_o present_a you_o yourself_o do_v acquiesce_v as_o if_o you_o have_v repent_v of_o your_o former_a vote_n now_o he_o must_v be_v put_v upon_o you_o and_o with_o such_o term_n as_o his_o present_a guardian_n please_v to_o allow_v of_o true_o it_o seem_v strange_a to_o i_o that_o a_o army_n of_o scot_n in_o pay_n of_o the_o kingdom_n of_o england_n which_o by_o the_o treaty_n ought_v to_o be_v govern_v by_o the_o joint_a consent_n of_o the_o committee_n of_o both_o kingdom_n upon_o the_o place_n shall_v in_o england_n take_v a_o king_n of_o england_n without_o the_o privity_n of_o the_o english_a committee_n and_o convey_v he_o to_o newcastle_n a_o town_n likewise_o of_o england_n and_o shall_v there_o keep_v he_o for_o six_o whole_a month_n without_o the_o consent_n of_o both_o house_n of_o parliament_n and_o when_o they_o find_v it_o not_o convenient_a for_o they_o to_o keep_v he_o any_o long_o than_o they_o will_v capitulate_v with_o you_o upon_o what_o condition_n you_o must_v receive_v his_o person_n i_o never_o think_v to_o have_v find_v a_o king_n of_o england_n his_o person_n be_v in_o england_n under_o any_o other_o protection_n but_o that_o of_o the_o law_n of_o england_n but_o now_o i_o find_v he_o under_o the_o protection_n of_o a_o scottish_a army_n whether_o they_o say_v he_o be_v flee_v for_o shelter_n and_o that_o they_o can_v render_v he_o up_o in_o honour_n sir_n if_o that_o army_n of_o they_o be_v come_v into_o this_o kingdom_n as_o brethren_n friend_n and_o confederate_n as_o we_o hope_v they_o be_v then_o be_v every_o person_n of_o that_o army_n during_o the_o time_n of_o his_o stay_n here_o local_o a_o subject_a of_o england_n and_o such_o child_n as_o be_v bear_v to_o they_o here_o be_v not_o alien_n but_o denizen_n and_o not_o only_o local_a but_o legal_a subject_n of_o this_o kingdom_n and_o therefore_o they_o have_v get_v the_o king_n into_o their_o hand_n they_o ought_v no_o more_o to_o capitulate_v upon_o what_o term_n he_o shall_v be_v deliver_v into_o you_o then_o if_o the_o army_n of_o sir_n thomas_n fairfax_n be_v in_o possession_n thereof_o who_o if_o they_o shall_v deny_v the_o surrender_n of_o the_o king_n unto_o you_o but_o upon_o condition_n no_o question_n but_o it_o be_v capital_a they_o say_v that_o by_o virtue_n of_o the_o covenant_n they_o be_v oblige_v to_o defend_v his_o person_n and_o authority_n what_o his_o authority_n be_v in_o scotland_n themselves_o best_o know_v but_o you_o only_o be_v to_o judge_v of_o it_o in_o england_n since_o be_v not_o subordinate_a to_o any_o power_n on_o earth_n there_o be_v no_o power_n under_o heaven_n can_v judge_v you_o the_o covenant_n tie_v you_o to_o maintain_v in_o the_o first_o place_n the_o right_n of_o parliament_n and_o the_o liberty_n of_o the_o kingdom_n and_o in_o the_o second_o place_n the_o king_n person_n and_o authority_n and_o that_o only_o in_o defence_n of_o the_o former_a and_o not_o otherwise_o and_o whereas_o they_o expect_v the_o king_n shall_v be_v receive_v by_o you_o with_o honour_n safety_n and_o freedom_n i_o beseech_v you_o sir_n consider_v whether_o as_o the_o case_n now_o stand_v his_o reception_n with_o honour_n can_v stand_v with_o the_o honour_n of_o the_o kingdom_n whether_o his_o safety_n be_v not_o incompatible_a with_o the_o safety_n of_o the_o commonwealth_n and_o whether_o his_o freedom_n be_v not_o inconsistent_a with_o the_o freedom_n of_o the_o people_n i_o pray_v sir_n take_v heed_n lest_o that_o bring_v he_o in_o with_o honour_n you_o do_v not_o dishonour_v your_o self_n and_o question_v the_o very_a justice_n of_o all_o your_o action_n be_v wary_a that_o in_o receive_v he_o with_o safety_n you_o do_v not_o thereby_o endanger_v and_o hazard_v the_o commonwealth_n be_v advise_v least_o in_o bring_v he_o home_o with_o freedom_n you_o do_v not_o thereby_o lead_v the_o people_n of_o england_n in_o thraldom_n i_o pray_v sir_n first_o settle_v the_o honour_n safety_n and_o freedom_n of_o the_o commonwealth_n and_o then_o the_o honour_n safety_n and_o freedom_n of_o the_o king_n so_o far_o as_o the_o latter_a may_v stand_v with_o the_o former_a and_o not_o otherwise_o wherefore_o i_o shall_v conclude_v with_o my_o humble_a desire_n that_o you_o will_v adhere_v to_o your_o former_a vote_n that_o be_v that_o the_o king_n be_v dispose_v of_o as_o both_o house_n of_o parliament_n shall_v think_v fit_v and_o that_o you_o enter_v into_o no_o treaty_n either_o with_o the_o king_n or_o your_o brethren_n of_o scotland_n lest_o otherwise_o thereby_o you_o retard_v the_o go_v home_o of_o their_o army_n out_o of_o england_n finis_fw-la
