the_o king._n else_o man_n that_o fight_v against_o his_o army_n may_v say_v they_o fight_v not_o against_o the_o king._n and_o can_v the_o king_n make_v war_n without_o a_o army_n m._n i_o believe_v you_o be_v in_o the_o right_n 2._o i_o ask_v you_o what_o be_v mean_v by_o the_o king_n authority_n be_v it_o not_o by_o his_o law_n that_o be_v the_o high_a act_n of_o his_o authority_n l._n there_o be_v no_o doubt_n but_o what_o be_v do_v by_o law_n be_v do_v by_o the_o king_n authority_n m._n 3._o how_o be_v we_o to_o know_v the_o king_n commission_n l._n by_o his_o seal_n m._n i_o never_o hear_v of_o many_o of_o the_o parliament_n army_n that_o ever_o see_v any_o seal_a commission_n of_o those_o they_o fight_v against_o and_o will_v that_o excuse_v they_o l._n no_o because_o it_o be_v notorious_a that_o the_o king_n own_v the_o war._n m._n but_o suppose_v that_o any_o of_o his_o soldier_n come_v to_o take_v free_a quarter_n or_o horse_n or_o plunder_n or_o to_o possess_v any_o man_n house_n or_o land_n how_o shall_v we_o know_v that_o they_o have_v commission_n for_o these_o and_o may_v they_o be_v resist_v till_o they_o show_v their_o commission_n l._n no_o because_o it_o will_v hinder_v the_o king_n service_n m._n 4._o what_o seal_n must_v it_o be_v that_o must_v make_v a_o commission_n l._n either_o the_o great_a or_o little_a seal_n m._n 5._o be_v it_o possible_a for_o the_o law_n and_o a_o commission_n to_o be_v contrary_a l._n some_o say_v no_o because_o it_o be_v no_o commission_n if_o it_o be_v contrary_a to_o the_o law._n and_o some_o say_v no_o because_o it_o must_v be_v suppose_v that_o the_o king_n will_v grant_v no_o commission_n contrary_a to_o law._n and_o some_o say_v yea_o but_o when_o they_o be_v contrary_a the_o commission_n be_v to_o be_v obey_v against_o the_o law._n and_o some_o say_v yea_o and_o that_o the_o law_n be_v to_o be_v obey_v against_o the_o commission_n m._n but_o if_o you_o be_v of_o so_o many_o mind_n how_o be_v doubter_n resolve_v what_o to_o swear_v and_o what_o to_o do_v 1._o if_o you_o say_v it_o be_v no_o commission_n that_o be_v contrary_a to_o law_n who_o shall_v be_v judge_n when_o it_o be_v contrary_a to_o law_n if_o every_o subject_a be_v judge_n it_o be_v as_o easy_a to_o rebel_n and_o say_v the_o king_n commission_n be_v illegal_a as_o it_o be_v to_o deny_v all_o the_o authority_n of_o his_o commission_n l._n the_o judge_n and_o court_n must_v judge_v what_o be_v legal_a m._n if_o the_o judge_n yea_o or_o the_o parliament_n shall_v judge_v the_o king_n commission_n illegal_a will_v that_o make_v it_o lawful_a for_o the_o subject_n to_o resist_v they_o l._n i_o dare_v not_o say_v so_o therefore_o we_o must_v come_v to_o the_o late_a opinion_n that_o the_o king_n himself_o be_v judge_n and_o that_o it_o be_v legal_a eo_fw-la nomine_fw-la because_o it_o be_v his_o commission_n and_o that_o commission_n suspend_v all_o contrary_a law_n though_o i_o know_v many_o abhor_v this_o that_o will_v not_o have_v the_o king_n will_n to_o be_v above_o all_o law_n and_o rule_n to_o be_v arbitrary_a m._n but_o suppose_v it_o be_v so_o the_o subject_n know_v the_o law_n to_o be_v the_o king_n be_v by_o promulgation_n how_o shall_v they_o be_v sure_a that_o commission_n be_v not_o counterfeit_v if_o they_o be_v contrary_a to_o they_o must_v every_o fellow_n be_v believe_v that_o produce_v a_o commission_n may_v it_o not_o be_v counterfeit_v l._n the_o king_n officer_n that_o keep_v his_o seal_n must_v be_v trust_v by_o we_o see_v the_o king_n trust_v they_o m._n 1._o then_o the_o king_n officer_n be_v set_v above_o all_o law_n and_o judicature_n as_o well_o as_o the_o king._n 2._o and_o why_o then_o be_v judge_n swear_v not_o to_o be_v move_v from_o justice_n by_o the_o great_a or_o little_a seal_n 3._o but_o must_v we_o trust_v every_o man_n that_o show_v a_o seal_n that_o he_o do_v not_o counterfeit_v it_o l._n i_o confess_v that_o the_o law_n be_v most_o public_a and_o certain_a notification_n of_o the_o king_n be_v will._n but_o it_o be_v easy_a to_o raise_v more_o doubt_n than_o the_o wise_a man_n can_v answer_v m._n be_v it_o not_o possible_a for_o two_o commission_n to_o be_v contrary_a what_o if_o one_o man_n have_v a_o patent_n for_o life_n to_o be_v lord_n admiral_n or_o lieutenant_n of_o the_o tower_n or_o the_o like_a and_o another_o come_v with_o a_o commission_n to_o put_v he_o out_o and_o take_v possession_n which_o must_v be_v obey_v l._n he_o that_o have_v the_o last_o commission_n the_o former_a may_v not_o resist_v he_o for_o the_o late_a nullifi_v the_o former_a m._n be_v it_o not_o then_o in_o the_o power_n of_o the_o keeper_n of_o the_o seal_n to_o depose_v the_o king_n at_o his_o pleasure_n by_o seal_v new_a commission_n to_o conspirator_n to_o seize_v on_o his_o garrison_n guard_n treasure_n magazine_n fort_n and_o navy_n l._n it_o must_v be_v take_v for_o grant_v that_o the_o king_n will_v give_v no_o commission_n against_o himself_o m._n but_o his_o former_a officer_n be_v not_o himself_o and_o if_o they_o must_v resign_v to_o new_a commissioner_n how_o know_v they_o but_o it_o be_v the_o king_n will_n l._n i_o tell_v you_o we_o must_v trust_v those_o that_o the_o king_n trust_v m._n then_o the_o question_n be_v whether_o it_o shall_v be_v in_o the_o power_n of_o a_o lord_n keeper_n to_o depose_v the_o king_n or_o betray_v the_o kingdom_n to_o who_o he_o will_v because_o the_o king_n trust_v he_o with_o the_o seal_n or_o in_o the_o power_n of_o a_o parliament_n to_o judge_v whether_o a_o commission_n be_v legal_a or_o whether_o law_n or_o commission_n be_v of_o great_a authority_n l._n there_o be_v no_o end_n of_o answer_v absurd_a supposition_n it_o be_v not_o to_o be_v suppose_v that_o the_o king_n will_v do_v wrong_a or_o so_o far_o trust_v untrusty_a men._n m_o 1._o we_o must_v suppose_v that_o a_o parliament_n may_v do_v wrong_a 2._o izaakson_n and_o other_o historian_n
