must_v be_v the_o sense_n namely_o swear_v to_o obey_v magistrate_n yet_o so_o as_o you_o infringe_v not_o your_o allegiance_n unto_o god_n and_o this_o seem_v to_o be_v the_o more_o probable_a because_o where_o obedience_n be_v command_v in_o large_a term_n to_o parent_n and_o to_o master_n as_o child_n obey_v your_o parent_n in_o all_o thing_n 20._o thing_n col._n 3._o 20._o servant_n be_v

it_o for_o confirmation_n whereof_o three_o thing_n be_v to_o be_v take_v into_o serious_a consideration_n 1._o first_o the_o legal_a call_n of_o this_o parliament_n which_o be_v common_a to_o this_o with_o all_o precedent_a parliament_n it_o be_v summon_v by_o writ_n from_o the_o king_n and_o that_o summons_n be_v necessitate_v by_o want_n of_o counsel_n and_o support_v which_o otherwise_o can_v not_o be_v have_v but_o in_o a_o parliamentary_a way_n and_o herein_o we_o be_v to_o admire_v and_o reverence_v the_o providence_n of_o god_n to_o send_v a_o free_a parliament_n beyond_o all_o hope_n &_o expectation_n for_o have_v we_o fall_v to_o blow_n with_o the_o scotish_n nation_n in_o either_o of_o those_o expedition_n which_o be_v make_v against_o they_o one_o or_o both_o kingdom_n have_v in_o all_o probability_n go_v to_o ruin_n as_o jacob_n therefore_o say_v of_o simeon_n and_o levi_n curse_v be_v their_o anger_n for_o it_o be_v fierce_a and_o their_o wrath_n for_o it_o be_v cruel_a s_o so_o say_v i_o of_o those_o that_o be_v the_o counsellor_n and_o contriver_n of_o that_o destroy_a project_n curse_v be_v their_o counsel_n for_o it_o be_v full_a of_o cruelty_n yet_o god_n who_o only_o can_v bring_v good_a out_o of_o evil_a turn_v this_o to_o both_o kingdom_n good_a for_o by_o that_o mean_v the_o king_n be_v necessitate_v to_o call_v a_o parliament_n 1._o to_o the_o joy_n and_o admiration_n of_o the_o best_a affect_v 2._o to_o the_o terror_n and_o astonishment_n of_o the_o adverse_a party_n some_z whereof_o be_v conscious_a of_o their_o guilt_n not_o willing_a to_o abide_v the_o trial_n betake_v themselves_o to_o flight_n the_o parliament_n therefore_o be_v lawful_o call_v this_o none_o can_v deny_v let_v those_o therefore_o that_o have_v call_v this_o a_o force_a not_o a_o free_a parliament_n either_o answer_n this_o or_o for_o ever_o hereafter_o hold_v their_o peace_n for_o shame_n 2._o again_o the_o solemn_a confirmation_n of_o the_o parliament_n by_o act_n of_o continuation_n in_o which_o this_o present_a differ_v from_o all_o precedent_a parliament_n that_o ever_o i_o can_v hear_v or_o read_v of_o i_o say_v the_o continuation_n of_o it_o 1._o in_o its_o full_a authority_n 2._o and_o with_o all_o its_o right_n and_o privilege_n do_v not_o the_o king_n by_o that_o act_n tie_v his_o presence_n at_o least_o the_o presence_n of_o his_o politic_a power_n and_o sovereign_a authority_n as_o head_n and_z chief_z in_o parliament_n to_o the_o place_n or_o with_o the_o person_n to_o which_o he_o have_v confine_v and_o confirm_v it_o let_v all_o the_o world_n judge_v if_o otherwise_o i_o will_v fain_o know_v 1._o of_o what_o force_n that_o act_n be_v 2._o or_o what_o benefit_n can_v accrue_v to_o the_o kingdom_n thereby_o let_v we_o put_v a_o case_n or_o two_o 1._o if_o any_o man_n shall_v purchase_v estate_n right_o or_o privilege_n of_o any_o other_o and_o have_v the_o same_o make_v over_o to_o he_o by_o write_a and_o by_o

have_v be_v so_o make_v over_o to_o he_o upon_o valuable_a consideration_n 2._o or_o if_o a_o father_n for_o this_o similitude_n fit_v the_o case_n best_a shall_v free_o give_v a_o estate_n to_o his_o son_n or_o son_n for_o his_o or_o their_o preferment_n special_o in_o the_o way_n of_o marriage_n though_o the_o father_n take_v no_o consideration_n in_o lieu_n thereof_o such_o gift_n be_v good_a in_o law_n and_o do_v debar_v the_o father_n from_o all_o reentry_n but_o if_o in_o lieu_n and_o recompense_n he_o take_v the_o dowry_n or_o any_o part_n thereof_o or_o any_o other_o collateral_a satisfaction_n that_o estate_n be_v therewith_o purchase_v no_o law_n can_v ever_o reverse_v or_o make_v the_o father_n act_n of_o none_o effect_n here_o be_v the_o case_n for_o if_o our_o father_n the_o late_a king_n have_v free_o give_v that_o act_n of_o continuation_n for_o the_o better_n of_o our_o condition_n it_o have_v be_v sufficient_a for_o the_o duration_n of_o it_o but_o pass_v it_o over_o by_o way_n of_o purchase_n for_o vast_a sum_n by_o subsidy_n pole-mony_n and_o the_o rest_n this_o make_v the_o case_n strong_a and_o the_o kingdom_n army_n which_o be_v advance_v by_o the_o

dispossess_v his_o son_n or_o son_n shall_v it_o not_o be_v lawful_a for_o he_o or_o they_o to_o defend_v the_o say_a title_n by_o the_o same_o law_n or_o be_v it_o any_o injustice_n in_o such_o son_n or_o son_n certain_o it_o be_v no_o disobedience_n our_o father_n the_o late_a king_n do_v estate_n the_o kingdom_n as_o have_v be_v show_v and_o after_o do_v commence_v suit_n by_o take_v up_o of_o
