without_o the_o king_n consent_n for_o of_o such_o all_o the_o inquiry_n we_o can_v make_v can_v never_o produce_v we_o one_o instance_n and_o if_o there_o be_v such_o a_o secret_a of_o the_o law_n

of_o do_v house_n have_v any_o such_o authority_n to_o make_v a_o new_a law_n it_o have_v the_o same_o authority_n to_o repeal_v the_o old_a and_o then_o what_o will_v become_v of_o the_o long_o
