king_n have_v now_o often_o profess_v himself_o ready_a to_o join_v in_o which_o profession_n will_v sure_o have_v be_v more_o ready_o entertain_v if_o they_o have_v not_o fear_v that_o this_o will_v

the_o next_o objection_n you_o make_v be_v this_o that_o whereas_o we_o here_o pretend_v to_o stand_v for_o law_n yet_o it_o be_v only_o for_o such_o a_o law_n of_o which_o we_o ourselves_o will_v

to_o you_o whether_o you_o do_v not_o believe_v that_o suppose_v which_o be_v hardly_o possible_a to_o be_v suppose_v that_o both_o house_n in_o the_o full_a and_o free_a condition_n of_o parliament_n that_o be_v imaginable_a shall_v declare_v that_o by_o the_o law_n of_o the_o land_n the_o king_n crown_n and_o the_o subject_n property_n and_o liberty_n be_v to_o be_v dispose_v of_o by_o they_o

it_o either_o the_o case_n or_o very_o near_o it_o indeed_o sir_n till_o the_o parliament_n be_v make_v perpetual_a such_o a_o case_n be_v absolute_o unimaginable_a for_o be_v a_o dissoluble_a body_n

peace_n itself_o be_v not_o more_o desirable_a than_o the_o condition_n of_o it_o will_v be_v reasonable_a which_o will_v then_o be_v have_v from_o they_o but_o fear_n and_o jealousy_n keep_v you_o still_o on_o that_o side_n and_o to_o this_o i_o can_v only_o answer_v first_o that_o of_o the_o king_n there_o be_v no_o ground_n of_o fear_n and_o jealousy_n if_o there_o be_v they_o must_v be_v both_o of_o his_o will_n and_o of_o his_o power_n and_o i_o can_v see_v no_o pretence_n for_o either_o here_o have_v be_v during_o his_o government_n many_o and_o great_a illegality_n suffer_v and_o commit_v by_o his_o minister_n but_o be_v he_o ever_o breed_v in_o any_o of_o the_o inn_n of_o court_n and_o then_o be_v it_o reasonable_a to_o lay_v the_o fault_n of_o that_o to_o his_o charge_n which_o as_o he_o often_o know_v not_o to_o be_v do_v at_o all_o so_o he_o never_o know_v to_o be_v illegal_o do_v do_v he_o not_o ever_o leave_v the_o trial_n to_o the_o law_n do_v he_o ever_o solicit_v or_o threaten_v any_o judge_n to_o say_v that_o be_v law_n which_o be_v not_o do_v he_o ever_o offer_v to_o protect_v any_o from_o this_o parliament_n that_o have_v either_o offend_v against_o law_n or_o judge_v amiss_o of_o law_n though_o in_o the_o case_n most_o to_o his_o own_o advantage_n and_o have_v he_o not_o give_v all_o possible_a personal_a satisfaction_n for_o other_o man_n fault_n both_o by_o public_a acknowledgement_n a_o thing_n unusual_a for_o prince_n to_o descend_v to_o of_o thing_n past_a by_o extraordinary_a provision_n for_o the_o future_a by_o the_o

shall_v most_o work_v with_o they_o who_o be_v most_o wrought_v upon_o by_o that_o be_v it_o not_o evident_a that_o his_o interest_n join_v with_o his_o conscience_n in_o the_o require_v this_o

the_o way_n to_o turn_v the_o cavalier_n into_o roundhead_n and_o the_o same_o thing_n as_o for_o he_o to_o mediate_v a_o league_n between_o his_o friend_n and_o his_o enemy_n against_o himself_o the_o king_n sir_n have_v have_v great_a experience_n by_o what_o mean_v the_o court_n lose_v their_o interest_n in_o the_o people_n and_o by_o the_o advantage_n that_o have_v be_v since_o make_v out_o of_o it_o upon_o he_o of_o what_o consequence_n that_o interest_n be_v and_o he_o be_v more_o to_o be_v trust_v that_o he_o will_v never_o hazard_v the_o like_a loss_n by_o the_o same_o way_n than_o any_o new_a prince_n in_o who_o time_n there_o have_v be_v no_o misgovernment_n and_o misfortune_n he_o can_v but_o know_v that_o a_o kingdom_n be_v like_o a_o torch_n which_o have_v be_v
