for_o prerogative_n upon_o this_o division_n different_a power_n be_v set_v up_o the_o commission_n of_o array_n for_o the_o king_n and_o the_o militia_n for_o the_o parliament_n but_o those_o of_o

with_o some_o in_o parliament_n who_o find_v it_o afterward_o to_o their_o own_o trouble_n the_o army_n march_v near_a london_n and_o at_o windsor_n after_o two_o day_n debate_v in_o a_o council_n of_o war_n it_o be_v resolve_v to_o remove_v all_o out_o of_o the_o house_n who_o they_o conceive_v do_v obstruct_v as_o they_o call_v it_o the_o public_a settlement_n i_o be_v press_v to_o use_v
