january_n last_o be_v compose_v of_o these_o not_o a_o county_n city_n or_o borough_n of_o england_n but_o appear_v there_o by_o their_o representative_n and_o the_o whole_a peer_n do_v or_o may_v

in_o the_o government_n if_o this_o be_v otherwise_o all_o member_n can_v sit_v in_o the_o house_n of_o commons_o that_o have_v such_o a_o writ_n authorise_v their_o election_n which_o not_o so_o

the_o king_n be_v write_v to_o summon_v a_o parliament_n that_o be_v unreasonable_a therefore_o the_o representative_n of_o the_o nation_n must_v meet_v and_o settle_v the_o government_n without_o any_o writ_n of_o summons_n this_o be_v no_o impossible_a supposition_n though_o it_o never_o happen_v in_o this_o kingdom_n because_o it_o have_v happen_v in_o other_o place_n and_o upon_o such_o

be_v no_o fictitious_a supposition_n because_o it_o real_o happen_v in_o what_o condition_n must_v we_o be_v until_o the_o return_n of_o our_o king_n or_o direction_n from_o he_o the_o authority_n of_o our_o judge_n sheriff_n etc._n etc._n determine_v with_o the_o king_n life_n so_o they_o can_v act_v therefore_o in_o this_o necessity_n to_o avoid_v anarchy_n and_o confusion_n the_o state_n of_o the_o kingdom_n must_v meet_v and_o settle_v the_o government_n by_o appoint_v officer_n and_o do_v what_o else_o be_v requisite_a for_o the_o safety_n of_o the_o kingdom_n and_o this_o they_o do_v upon_o the_o death_n of_o henry_n the_o three_o without_o any_o writ_n or_o authority_n from_o his_o absent_a son_n after_o the_o death_n of_o william_n rufus_n the_o crown_n of_o this_o

the_o destruction_n of_o the_o church_n be_v not_o design_v for_o unless_o the_o king_n word_n be_v like_o the_o law_n of_o the_o mede_n and_o persian_n unalterable_a it_o will_v be_v but_o a_o

that_o the_o late_a king_n be_v on_o the_o throne_n for_o as_o much_o his_o friend_n as_o king_n charles_n be_v yet_o he_o do_v not_o know_v how_o far_o a_o parliament_n may_v have_v influence_v he_o
