say_v to_o be_v no_o more_o when_o they_o make_v but_o a_o part_n of_o the_o parliament_n of_o great-britain_n for_o scotland_n can_v be_v call_v britain_n nor_o a_o part_n of_o a_o parliament_n can_v

sit_v in_o the_o parliament_n of_o great-britain_n by_o virtue_n of_o their_o former_a commission_n i_o see_v not_o and_o therefore_o it_o seem_v to_o be_v both_o fit_a and_o just_a that_o the_o commissioner_n of_o shire_n and_o burrows_n shall_v be_v send_v home_o to_o their_o respective_a constituent_n to_o crave_v their_o advice_n and_o consent_n in_o so_o weighty_a and_o comprehensive_a

both_o parliament_n require_v at_o least_o the_o full_a assent_n of_o the_o member_n of_o both_o parliament_n and_o that_o though_o the_o parliament_n have_v power_n to_o alter_v its_o own_o fundamental_o yet_o if_o any_o one_o dissent_n the_o union_n of_o both_o parliament_n must_v stop_v for_o both_o in_o law_n and_o reason_n the_o power_n of_o make_v law_n and_o the_o right_a to_o retain_v or_o resign_v privilege_n be_v two_o different_a thing_n the_o one_o be_v a_o legislative_a power_n which_o be_v regulate_v by_o plurality_n of_o voice_n the_o other_o be_v found_v upon_o

from_o he_o without_o his_o own_o consent_n though_o all_o these_o who_o be_v in_o the_o society_n with_o he_o shall_v renounce_v what_o be_v they_o in_o re_fw-mi pari_fw-la melior_fw-la est_fw-la

that_o as_o the_o parliament_n can_v debar_v any_o member_n from_o sit_v in_o parliament_n so_o that_o if_o one_o member_n by_o advice_n from_o his_o constituent_n oppose_v the_o union_n of_o

to_o stop_v the_o total_a alteration_n of_o the_o parliament_n even_o as_o a_o man_n can_v be_v debar_v from_o use_v a_o commontie_z it_o will_v likewise_o operat_fw-la that_o the_o commontie_z can_v be_v alter_v in_o its_o nature_n without_o his_o consent_n and_o the_o right_n of_o these_o who_o sit_v in_o parliament_n be_v as_o much_o prejudge_v by_o extinguish_v the_o be_v of_o a_o parliament_n

if_o the_o commissioner_n have_v power_n to_o overturn_v the_o be_v of_o the_o parliament_n of_o scotland_n they_o can_v have_v debar_v our_o shire_n and_o burgh_n from_o be_v re-presented_n in_o the_o parliament_n of_o great-britain_n see_v they_o can_v pretend_v no_o right_a to_o sit_v there_o so_o that_o it_o seem_v either_o plurality_n of_o voice_n may_v exclude_v any_o particular_a member_n and_o may_v retrinch_n that_o member_n or_o else_o by_o the_o same_o reason_n no_o plurality_n can_v establish_v a_o union_n of_o both_o parliament_n and_o if_o our_o parliament_n can_v by_o plurality_n of_o voice_n overturn_v the_o fundamental_o and_o destroy_v the_o very_a be_v of_o our_o parliament_n how_o shall_v it_o be_v possible_a to_o secure_v our_o parliament_n when_o it_o be_v
