for_o mortal_n now_o to_o impose_v so_o hard_a a_o yoke_n as_o this_o absolute_a power_n on_o the_o subject_n seem_v no_o small_a stretch_n but_o it_o be_v a_o wonderful_a exercise_n of_o it_o to_o

exercise_n of_o this_o absolute_a power_n it_o be_v a_o little_a hard_a to_o make_v man_n swear_v to_o maintain_v the_o king_n in_o it_o and_o if_o that_o kingdom_n have_v suffer_v so_o much_o by_o the_o many_o oath_n that_o have_v be_v in_o use_n among_o they_o as_o be_v mark_v in_o this_o proclamation_n i_o be_o afraid_a this_o new_a oath_n will_v not_o much_o mend_v the_o matter_n fourteen_o yet_o after_o all_o there_o be_v some_o comfort_n his_o majesty_n assure_v they_o he_o will_v use_v no_o violence_n nor_o force_n nor_o any_o invincible_a necessity_n to_o any_o man_n on_o the_o account_n of_o his_o persuasion_n it_o be_v too_o great_a a_o want_n of_o respect_n to_o fancy_n that_o a_o time_n may_v come_v in_o which_o even_o this_o may_v be_v remember_v full_a as_o well_o as_o the_o promise_n that_o be_v make_v to_o the_o parliament_n after_o his_o majesty_n come_v to_o the_o crown_n i_o do_v not_o i_o confess_v apprehend_v that_o for_o i_o see_v here_o so_o great_a a_o caution_n use_v in_o the_o choice_n of_o these_o word_n that_o it_o be_v plain_a very_o great_a severity_n may_v very_o well_o consist_v with_o they_o it_o be_v clear_a that_o the_o general_a word_n of_o violence_n and_o force_n be_v to_o be_v determine_v by_o these_o last_o of_o invincible_a necessity_n so_o that_o the_o king_n do_v only_o promise_v to_o lay_v no_o invincible_a necessity_n on_o his_o subject_n but_o for_o all_o necessity_n that_o be_v not_o invincible_a it_o seem_v they_o must_v expect_v to_o bear_v a_o large_a share_n of_o they_o disgrace_n want_v of_o employment_n fine_n and_o imprisonment_n and_o even_o death_n itself_o be_v all_o vincible_a thing_n to_o a_o man_n of_o a_o firmness_n of_o mind_n so_o that_o the_o violence_n of_o torture_n the_o fury_n of_o dragoon_n and_o some_o of_o the_o method_n now_o practise_v in_o france_n perhaps_o may_v be_v include_v within_o this_o promise_n since_o these_o seem_v almost_o invincible_a to_o humane_a nature_n if_o it_o be_v not_o fortify_v with_o a_o extraordinary_a measure_n of_o grace_n but_o as_o to_o all_o other_o thing_n his_o majesty_n bind_v himself_o up_o from_o no_o part_n of_o the_o exercise_n of_o his_o
