this_o occasion_n more_o than_o to_o refer_v myself_o to_o what_o i_o have_v speak_v be_v i_o in_o this_o case_n alone_o concern_v but_o the_o duty_n i_o owe_v to_o god_n in_o the_o preservation_n of_o the_o true_a liberty_n of_o my_o people_n will_v not_o suffer_v i_o at_o this_o time_n to_o be_v silent_a for_o how_o can_v any_o freeborn_a subject_n of_o england_n call_v life_n or_o any_o thing_n he_o possess_v his_o own_o if_o power_n without_o right_n daily_o make_v new_a and_o abrogate_v the_o old_a fundamental_a law_n of_o the_o land_n which_o i_o now_o take_v to_o be_v the_o present_a case_n wherefore_o when_o i_o come_v hither_o i_o expect_v that_o you_o will_v have_v endeavour_v to_o have_v satisfy_v i_o concern_v these_o ground_n which_o hinder_v i_o to_o answer_v to_o your_o pretend_a impeachment_n but_o since_o i_o see_v that_o nothing_o i_o can_v say_v will_v move_v you_o to_o it_o though_o negative_n be_v not_o so_o natural_o prove_v as_o affirmative_n yet_o i_o will_v show_v you_o the_o reason_n why_o i_o be_o confident_a you_o can_v judge_v i_o nor_o indeed_o the_o mean_a man_n in_o england_n for_o i_o will_v not_o like_o you_o without_o show_v a_o reason_n

law_n of_o the_o country_n where_o he_o live_v now_o i_o be_o most_o confident_a this_o day_n proceed_v can_v be_v warrant_v by_o god_n law_n for_o on_o the_o contrary_a the_o authority_n of_o obedience_n unto_o king_n be_v clear_o warrant_v and_o strict_o command_v both_o in_o the_o old_a and_o new_a testament_n which_o if_o deny_v i_o be_o ready_a instant_o to_o prove_v and_o for_o the_o

for_o the_o law_n of_o this_o land_n i_o be_o no_o less_o confident_a that_o no_o learned_a lawyer_n will_v affirm_v that_o a_o impeachment_n can_v lie_v against_o the_o king_n they_o all_o go_v in_o his_o name_n and_o one_o of_o their_o maxim_n be_v that_o the_o king_n can_v do_v no_o wrong_n beside_o the_o law_n upon_o which_o you_o ground_n your_o proceed_n must_v either_o be_v old_a or_o new_a if_o old_a show_v it_o if_o new_a tell_v what_o authority_n warrant_v by_o the_o fundamental_a law_n of_o the_o land_n have_v make_v it_o and_o when_o but_o how_o the_o house_n of_o commons_o can_v erect_v a_o court_n of_o judicature_n which_o be_v never_o one_o itself_o as_o be_v well_o know_v to_o all_o lawyer_n i_o leave_v to_o god_n and_o the_o world_n to_o judge_v and_o it_o be_v full_a as_o strange_a that_o they_o shall_v pretend_v to_o make_v law_n without_o king_n or_o lord_n house_n to_o any_o that_o have_v hear_v speak_v of_o the_o law_n of_o england_n and_o admit_v but_o not_o grant_v that_o the_o people_n of_o england_n commission_n can_v grant_v your_o pretend_a power_n i_o see_v nothing_o you_o can_v show_v for_o that_o for_o certain_o you_o never_o ask_v the_o question_n of_o the_o ten_o man_n in_o the_o kingdom_n and_o in_o this_o way_n you_o manifest_o wrong_v even_o the_o poor_a ploughman_n if_o you_o demand_v not_o his_o free_a consent_n nor_o can_v you_o pretend_v any_o colour_n for_o this_o your_o pretend_a commission_n without_o the_o consent_n at_o least_o of_o the_o major_a part_n of_o every_o man_n in_o england_n of_o whatsoever_o quality_n
