a_o bill_n or_o any_o thing_n else_o the_o lord_n may_v if_o they_o see_v reason_n alter_v or_o reject_v it_o so_o that_o if_o hereafter_o they_o be_v reduce_v to_o one_o house_n i_o make_v no_o

of_o the_o two_o which_o his_o lordship_n say_v be_v strong_a and_o 5._o the_o other_o objection_n be_v this_o that_o this_o bill_n alter_v the_o foundation_n of_o this_o house_n and_o innovation_n which_o shake_v foundation_n be_v dangerous_a and_o true_o this_o objection_n seem_v to_o i_o very_o strong_a but_o perhaps_o that_o be_v by_o reason_n of_o my_o weakness_n for_o my_o lord_n tell_v we_o before_o that_o it_o be_v capable_a of_o a_o satisfactory_a answer_n and_o here_o his_o lordship_n give_v two_o for_o fail_v i_o answer_v first_o that_o if_o there_o shall_v be_v a_o error_n in_o the_o foundation_n when_o it_o shall_v be_v find_v and_o the_o master-builder_n be_v meet_v together_o they_o may_v nay_o they_o ought_v rather_o to_o amend_v it_o than_o to_o suffer_v it_o to_o run_v on_o still_o to_o the_o prejudice_n and_o danger_n of_o the_o whole_a structure_n this_o answer_n whatever_o this_o lord_n think_v of_o it_o be_v not_o satisfactory_a and_o the_o thing_n will_v be_v full_a of_o danger_n whensoever_o it_o shall_v be_v put_v to_o trial_n for_o foundation_n be_v seldom_o meddle_v withal_o but_o with_o great_a hazard_n and_o a_o fundamental_a error_n in_o a_o kingdom_n be_v bear_v with_o more_o safety_n to_o the_o whole_a than_o it_o can_v be_v take_v away_o and_o this_o happen_v partly_o because_o among_o the_o many_o subject_n of_o a_o kingdom_n there_o be_v different_a judgement_n and_o as_o different_a affection_n whence_o it_o follow_v that_o all_o man_n be_v not_o of_o opinion_n that_o that_o which_o be_v call_v a_o error_n in_o the_o
