A85519	The grand concernments of England ensured: viz. liberty of conscience, extirpation of popery, defence of property, easing of taxes, advance of trade, soveraign powers of Parliaments, reformation of religion, laws and liberties, indempnity, settlement, by a constant succession of free Parliaments, the only possible expedient to preserve us from ruine or slavery. The objections, answered; but more largely, that of a senate. With a sad expostulation, and some smart rebukes to the Army.		1659 (1659)	Wing G1492; Thomason E1001_6; ESTC R204729	70,399	77

notwithstanding_o mr._n harrington_n vouch_v these_o two_o council_n of_o legislator_n and_o warrant_v they_o sound_a wind_n and_o limb_n i_o dare_v not_o take_v they_o upon_o his_o word_n for_o i_o

she_o divide_v according_o wherefore_o if_o the_o senate_n have_v any_o more_o power_n then_o to_o divide_v the_o commonwealth_n can_v never_o be_v equal_a the_o reader_n will_v observe_v what_o
