monarchy_n suppose_v the_o royal_a family_n be_v extinct_a must_v the_o nation_n remain_v still_o in_o confusion_n never_o come_v into_o any_o form_n of_o government_n because_o we_o can_v have_v 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
