the_o king_n be_v judge_n only_o whether_o a_o parliament_n shall_v be_v hold_v often_o than_o once_o a_o year_n whereas_o the_o conjunction_n and_o couple_n and_o join_v the_o sense_n of_o the_o

call_v parliament_n once_o a_o year_n as_o well_o as_o whether_o there_o be_v need_n of_o call_v they_o often_o than_o once_o a_o year_n so_o that_o it_o be_v evident_a the_o noble_a king_n edward_n the_o three_o and_o his_o parliament_n mean_v no_o such_o matter_n as_o the_o considerator_n and_o his_o fellow_n and_o as_o some_o other_o professor_n of_o the_o law_n have_v hitherto_o misunderstand_v contrary_a to_o the_o general_n sense_n of_o law_n in_o that_o part_n of_o our_o law_n which_o concern_v the_o establishment_n of_o the_o prerogative_n of_o our_o king_n a_o very_a principal_a flower_n whereof_o be_v the_o power_n of_o call_v and_o dissolve_v parliament_n as_o often_o as_o they_o shall_v judge_v there_o be_v need_n and_o the_o practice_n of_o other_o nation_n in_o all_o the_o world_n have_v justify_v this_o that_o it_o be_v the_o common_a birthright_n of_o hereditary_a king_n to_o be_v sole_a judge_n of_o this_o question_n whether_o there_o be_v need_n or_o no_o need_n at_o all_o time_n of_o call_v or_o of_o dismiss_v the_o supreme_a assembly_n unless_o they_o limit_v themselves_o but_o you_o see_v here_o be_v reason_n absolute_a to_o conclude_v our_o king_n edward_n do_v not_o intend_v to_o limit_v himself_o to_o yearly_a parliament_n by_o the_o say_a statute_n and_o to_o make_v further_a proof_n of_o this_o see_v again_o what_o be_v say_v by_o the_o considerator_n considerator_n that_o the_o king_n of_o england_n have_v not_o due_o nor_o constant_o observe_v those_o statute_n ever_o since_o their_o make_n do_v not_o render_v they_o of_o the_o less_o force_n because_o it_o be_v a_o offence_n in_o the_o king_n not_o to_o fulfil_v a_o law_n animadversion_n here_o he_o be_v please_v to_o acknowledge_v what_o can_v be_v deny_v that_o the_o king_n of_o england_n have_v not_o observe_v those_o statute_n ever_o since_o their_o make_n which_o show_v that_o our_o succeed_a king_n never_o think_v themselves_o oblige_v by_o they_o or_o that_o king_n edward_n intend_v it_o so_o unless_o they_o shall_v see_v need_n or_o at_o any_o time_n judge_v it_o necessary_a to_o call_v a_o parliament_n beside_o we_o do_v not_o read_v of_o any_o parliamentary_a complaint_n about_o the_o omit_v of_o year_o parliament_n till_o our_o presbyterian_a master_n of_o the_o faction_n in_o their_o grand_a remonstrance_n 1641._o charge_v it_o as_o a_o fault_n upon_o his_o majesty_n father_n under_o pretence_n of_o those_o statute_n and_o doubtless_o some_o of_o the_o forego_n parliament_n will_v have_v make_v complaint_n about_o year_o omission_n have_v they_o believe_v king_n bind_v to_o year_o parliament_n but_o that_o king_n edward_n and_o his_o parliament_n which_o pass_v the_o law_n never_o intend_v or_o understand_v it_o in_o the_o considerator_n sense_n be_v to_o be_v conclude_v from_o this_o most_o undeniable_o that_o from_o the_o five_o year_n of_o the_o say_a king_n to_o the_o eight_o year_n no_o parliament_n be_v call_v the_o reason_n be_v because_o he_o judge_v there_o be_v no_o need_n nor_o do_v it_o appear_v that_o he_o do_v afterward_o observe_v any_o such_o certain_a puncto_fw-la of_o time_n in_o call_v his_o parliament_n but_o doubtless_o it_o be_v in_o reason_n to_o be_v think_v he_o will_v have_v be_v so_o tender_a of_o his_o own_o law_n as_o to_o have_v observe_v it_o within_o the_o five_o or_o six_o year_n and_o not_o so_o soon_o have_v break_v it_o if_o he_o have_v think_v himself_o oblige_v absolute_o to_o a_o year_n because_o it_o be_v but_o in_o the_o four_o year_n that_o he_o pass_v it_o considerator_n but_o say_v the_o considerator_n the_o king_n be_v the_o only_a person_n that_o be_v mean_v or_o can_v be_v bind_v for_o he_o it_o be_v that_o be_v to_o summon_v or_o hold_v parliament_n and_o therefore_o the_o statute_n intend_v to_o oblige_v he_o or_o else_o they_o intend_v nothing_o and_o the_o law_n for_o parliament_n that_o secure_v our_o religion_n property_n and_o liberty_n be_v become_v only_a advice_n and_o counsel_n to_o the_o king_n with_o no_o obligation_n further_o than_o the_o king_n present_a thought_n of_o their_o expedience_n animadversion_n that_o the_o obligation_n to_o a_o year_o parliament_n lie_v no_o further_o upon_o the_o king_n than_o if_o in_o prudence_n he_o see_v there_o be_v need_n be_v already_o prove_v from_o a_o right_a construction_n of_o the_o word_n of_o the_o statute_n and_o that_o this_o prudential_a power_n and_o part_n of_o the_o king_n prerogative_n in_o judge_v the_o expedience_n of_o call_v parliament_n at_o this_o or_o that_o time_n as_o affair_n shall_v in_o his_o judgement_n require_v do_v remain_v undiminish_a by_o the_o say_a statute_n and_o they_o intend_v only_o this_o which_o be_v enough_o that_o see_v the_o people_n have_v a_o ancient_a right_n by_o custom_n to_o have_v frequent_a parliament_n the_o king_n according_o shall_v oblige_v himself_o to_o call_v parliament_n so_o often_o as_o every_o year_n or_o often_o if_o there_o shall_v be_v need_n whereupon_o it_o be_v observable_a that_o see_v in_o the_o interval_n of_o parliament_n there_o neither_o ought_v nor_o can_v be_v any_o judge_n of_o the_o necessity_n but_o the_o king_n these_o two_o law_n leave_v the_o power_n of_o judge_v it_o in_o the_o prerogative-royal_a as_o they_o find_v it_o and_o the_o then_o parliament_n gain_v this_o great_a advantage_n for_o the_o people_n that_o whereas_o they_o before_o have_v a_o right_n by_o custom_n and_o common_a law_n they_o now_o obtain_v a_o right_n by_o

whether_o it_o will_v not_o have_v be_v a_o great_a mischief_n rather_o than_o benefit_n to_o the_o people_n for_o in_o those_o day_n they_o that_o serve_v member_n in_o parliament_n be_v wont_a to_o

their_o burgess_n it_o be_v recoverable_a by_o law_n against_o they_o which_o peradventure_o will_v amount_v to_o more_o than_o their_o share_n of_o payment_n of_o subsidy_n again_o consider_v as_o this_o will_v empty_v their_o purse_n so_o it_o will_v lade_v they_o with_o innumerable_a law_n which_o be_v as_o grievous_a almost_o as_o to_o have_v none_o as_o it_o have_v be_v find_v in_o many_o nation_n by_o experience_n and_o therefore_o it_o be_v that_o justinian_n have_v be_v everywhere_o praise_v for_o so_o excellent_a a_o emperor_n because_o when_o all_o the_o nation_n under_o the_o

shall_v such_o yearly_a parliament_n be_v impose_v on_o we_o by_o law_n the_o statute_n will_v soon_o swell_v to_o the_o like_a intolerable_a pass_n and_o tire_v the_o people_n out_o of_o fondness_n after_o so_o frequent_a meeting_n as_o these_o writer_n plead_v for_o and_o will_v force_v we_o to_o admit_v even_o against_o all_o sense_n and_o reason_n therefore_o we_o have_v abundant_a cause_n to_o praise_v the_o wisdom_n of_o his_o majesty_n and_o this_o his_o parliament_n that_o in_o the_o 16_o year_n of_o his_o reign_n they_o frame_v that_o most_o prudent_a triennial_n law_n which_o place_v a_o golden_a mediocrity_n betwixt_o the_o have_v too_o frequent_a parliament_n and_o too_o long_a delay_n of_o they_o and_o i_o must_v needs_o say_v his_o majesty_n have_v therein_o appear_v

to_o be_v beyond_o all_o our_o king_n and_o most_o gracious_a in_o condescend_v and_o indulgence_n towards_o his_o people_n that_o as_o the_o faction_n which_o set_v on_o work_v this_o considerator_n

shall_v be_v approve_v of_o by_o both_o house_n of_o parliament_n etc._n etc._n the_o rest_n of_o the_o demand_n be_v agreeable_a to_o this_o but_o what_o answer_v the_o king_n to_o these_o thing_n these_o say_v he_o be_v pass_v we_o may_v be_v wait_v on_o bareheaded_a we_o may_v have_v our_o hand_n kiss_v the_o style_n of_o majesty_n continue_v to_o we_o and_o the_o king_n authority_n declare_v
