which_o commission_n must_v be_v grant_v by_o man_n immediate_o or_o else_o by_o god_n extraordinary_o and_o immediate_o 2._o that_o in_o this_o age_n which_o know_v of_o no_o oracle_n or_o miracle_n remain_v god_n do_v not_o immediate_o and_o otherwise_o then_o by_o the_o same_o providence_n as_o rule_n in_o other_o human_a affair_n either_o design_n the_o person_n or_o distinguish_v the_o

matter_n yea_o the_o scripture_n be_v most_o clear_a in_o this_o that_o when_o god_n by_o immediate_a and_o extraordinary_a order_n from_o heaven_n do_v interpose_v in_o design_v saul_n to_o the_o

indeed_o since_o all_o prince_n whether_o hereditary_a or_o elective_a whether_o more_o absolute_a or_o more_o conditionate_a whether_o enthrone_v by_o just_a title_n or_o by_o tortion_n and_o mere_a

charles_n who_o he_o have_v intrude_v upon_o be_v in_o england_n and_o since_o the_o king_n of_o spain_n by_o special_a law_n of_o heaven_n can_v claim_v no_o large_a supremacy_n in_o castille_n then_o in_o burgundy_n in_o naples_n then_o in_o arragon_n what_o a_o unreasonable_a thing_n be_v it_o to_o ascribe_v all_o these_o devolution_n of_o rule_n and_o variation_n of_o power_n to_o the_o immediate_a hand_n of_o god_n which_o change_v not_o rather_o than_o to_o the_o act_n of_o man_n which_o be_v seldom_o permanent_a 3._o that_o if_o we_o will_v suppose_v that_o prince_n commission_n be_v all_o immediate_o draw_v and_o sign_v by_o god_n yet_o we_o can_v suppose_v that_o god_n commission_n ever_o enable_v any_o man_n to_o do_v injury_n his_o charge_n to_o all_o king_n be_v contrary_a and_o do_v inhibit_v all_o insolence_n in_o comportment_n nay_o even_o all_o elation_n of_o heart_n and_o for_o man_n so_o far_o as_o prince_n be_v inaugurate_v upon_o earth_n we_o see_v by_o experience_n they_o all_o almost_o have_v their_o visible_a terry_n and_o boundary_n set_v to_o they_o and_o it_o be_v most_o unnatural_a if_o the_o intendment_n of_o all_o human_a law_n shall_v not_o refer_v to_o the_o safety_n of_o the_o people_n 4._o that_o if_o any_o obscurity_n or_o ambiguity_n be_v in_o other_o law_n yet_o in_o the_o law_n of_o england_n there_o be_v none_o at_o all_o all_o our_o book_n proclaim_v our_o nation_n to_o be_v a_o free_a nation_n and_o our_o king_n to_o be_v limit_v from_o do_v any_o wrong_n and_o because_o there_o may_v be_v dispute_n about_o the_o

about_o our_o charter_n the_o king_n himself_o can_v interpret_v or_o sit_v as_o judge_v he_o be_v in_o all_o case_n take_v to_o be_v a_o party_n and_o so_o incompetent_a to_o sit_v as_o judge_v his_o

all_o interpretation_n must_v rather_o favour_v that_o interest_n which_o be_v general_a then_o that_o which_o be_v particular_a and_o for_o the_o military_a power_n of_o england_n as_o the_o king_n ought_v not_o to_o use_v any_o other_o than_o the_o natural_a liege_n people_n of_o england_n in_o his_o war_n so_o neither_o can_v he_o press_v the_o people_n of_o england_n to_o serve_v in_o his_o war_n at_o discretion_n if_o the_o war_n be_v foreign_a or_o against_o a_o foreign_a power_n the_o parliament_n ought_v to_o be_v consult_v in_o it_o but_o if_o force_n be_v to_o be_v use_v against_o

in_o case_n of_o pardon_n the_o king_n shall_v be_v think_v to_o be_v virtual_o in_o the_o two_o house_n for_o as_o much_o as_o that_o power_n he_o say_v remain_v sole_o in_o the_o king_n and_o therefore_o can_v rest_v at_o all_o in_o the_o two_o house_n that_o the_o power_n of_o pardon_v delinquent_n be_v so_o in_o the_o king_n sole_o as_o that_o he_o can_v derive_v the_o same_o to_o the_o

do_v his_o other_o be_v as_o far_o from_o be_v prove_v also_o for_o doubtless_o in_o all_o act_n of_o oblivion_n the_o two_o house_n convey_v a_o additional_a vigour_n and_o so_o make_v the_o act_n more_o virtuous_a than_o the_o king_n mere_a act_n can_v do_v and_o therefore_o this_o new_a vigour_n which_o be_v convey_v by_o the_o house_n if_o it_o be_v not_o that_o which_o be_v derive_v from_o the_o king_n as_o mr._n jenkin_n tenet_n deny_v than_o it_o flow_v natural_o and_o original_o from_o the_o two_o house_n and_o what_o can_v mr._n jenkin_n cause_n gain_v by_o this_o but_o say_v mr._n jenkin_n the_o king_n be_v a_o prisoner_n and_o so_o have_v no_o power_n but_o what_o be_v divest_v by_o his_o imprisonment_n the_o power_n of_o the_o house_n be_v usurp_v by_o themselves_o and_o

or_o else_o imprisonment_n as_o to_o some_o act_n may_v stand_v with_o freedom_n as_o to_o other_o acts._n i_o have_v touch_v upon_o this_o subject_a already_o but_o let_v master_n jenkin_n be_v as_o bitter_a as_o he_o please_v in_o his_o censure_n and_o reproach_n it_o be_v not_o intend_v by_o the_o two_o house_n that_o the_o king_n shall_v be_v disable_v from_o do_v any_o act_n of_o justice_n and_o piety_n it_o be_v only_o from_o raise_v new_a force_n and_o beget_v new_a concussion_n that_o this_o new_a guard_n desire_v to_o prevent_v he_o master_n jenkin_n next_o say_v that_o the_o king_n may_v revoke_v and_o discharge_v his_o commission_n at_o pleasure_n but_o what_o of_o this_o the_o question_n be_v whether_o or_o no_o the_o king_n may_v frustrate_v and_o elude_v his_o commission_n and_o this_o master_n jenkin_n speak_v not_o direct_o to_o we_o need_v not_o quarrel_v therefore_o further_o about_o this_o we_o will_v grant_v to_o master_n jenkin_n that_o parliament_n may_v be_v just_o determine_v and_o dissolve_v by_o our_o king_n provide_v he_o will_v grant_v to_o we_o that_o the_o same_o may_v be_v just_o frustrate_v or_o elude_v but_o master_n jenkin_n stomach_n much_o at_o our_o call_v the_o two_o house_n a_o parliament_n and_o censure_v it_o in_o we_o as_o a_o great_a delusion_n although_o we_o know_v well_o that_o nothing_o be_v more_o common_a in_o speech_n then_o to_o say_v that_o the_o king_n call_v his_o parliament_n write_v to_o his_o parliament_n dissolve_v his_o parliament_n etc._n etc._n the_o king_n must_v be_v take_v abstract_v from_o that_o

when_o we_o speak_v of_o the_o great_a council_n of_o the_o kingdom_n we_o mean_v the_o parliament_n abstract_v from_o the_o king_n forasmuch_o as_o the_o king_n in_o parliament_n do_v not_o so_o

the_o king_n and_o kingdom_n i_o can_v devise_v the_o law_n say_v the_o king_n can_v be_v absent_a from_o his_o parliament_n this_o must_v be_v mean_v authoritative_o not_o personal_o for_o divers_a of_o our_o king_n have_v be_v in_o france_n sit_v parliament_n here_o and_o yet_o even_o they_o be_v political_o present_a though_o physical_o absent_a as_o master_n jenkin_n himself_o must_v needs_o

objection_n of_o master_n jenkin_n against_o the_o two_o house_n be_v that_o they_o be_v desert_v by_o divers_a of_o their_o own_o member_n who_o in_o considerable_a number_n go_v to_o the_o king_n at_o oxford_n but_o this_o be_v no_o other_o objection_n than_o may_v be_v make_v against_o the_o husband_n when_o the_o wife_n elope_n and_o withdraw_v from_o his_o bed_n shall_v that_o party_n

doubtless_o when_o the_o king_n call_v these_o uncertain_a member_n mongrel_n who_o together_o with_o their_o whole_a faction_n will_v neither_o be_v cordial_o true_a to_o religion_n and_o liberty_n at_o london_n nor_o total_o consent_v to_o subvert_v they_o at_o oxford_n he_o have_v more_o reason_n on_o his_o side_n then_o master_n jenkin_n have_v who_o disparage_v those_o that_o keep_v their_o

our_o king_n from_o all_o tallage_n and_o subsidy_n but_o by_o consent_n in_o parliament_n as_o do_v appear_v by_o magna_fw-la charta_fw-la yet_o he_o say_v this_o be_v no_o consequence_n because_o the_o king_n can_v take_v the_o subject_n good_a at_o pleasure_n therefore_o the_o commons_o have_v a_o concurrent_a power_n with_o the_o king_n in_o parliament_n indeed_o this_o consequence_n be_v ill-framed_a but_o in_o its_o right_a form_n it_o appear_v thus_o if_o the_o commons_o in_o parliament_n have_v that_o great_a power_n to_o raise_v treasure_n out_o of_o the_o whole_a kingdom_n which_o the_o king_n have_v not_o our_o of_o parliament_n than_o they_o must_v deduce_v this_o power_n from_o themselves_o or_o those_o who_o they_o represent_v and_o not_o from_o the_o king_n who_o can_v give_v that_o which_o he_o have_v not_o in_o himself_o but_o so_o it_o be_v that_o the_o commons_o have_v this_o power_n ergo_o if_o mr._n jenkin_n will_v answer_v this_o he_o shall_v befriend_v my_o intellect_n the_o last_o objection_n which_o master_n jenkin_n make_v against_o this_o concurrent_a power_n of_o the_o commons_o in_o grant_v subsidy_n be_v this_o that_o parliament_n may_v be_v

in_o parl._n but_o since_o at_o sometime_o it_o may_v be_v diffuse_v and_o intermit_v or_o a_o power_n that_o at_o sometime_o be_v not_o reduce_v into_o act_n therefore_o it_o be_v no_o power_n or_o not_o inherent_a in_o the_o people_n but_o only_o derivative_a from_o the_o king_n let_v master_n jenkin_n apply_v his_o own_o word_n to_o himself_o here_o for_o certain_o he_o ought_v to_o make_v a_o
