of_o those_o law_n which_o concern_v the_o subject_n interest_n right_o and_o property_n as_o be_v most_o liable_a to_o their_o suspicion_n that_o the_o king_n by_o his_o prerogative_n or_o by_o

the_o king_n by_o a_o second_o promise_n undertake_v to_o dispense_v with_o a_o rigorous_a circumstance_n of_o one_o law_n which_o only_o diminish_v and_o minorate_v a_o little_a the_o grandour_n and_o honour_n of_o his_o own_o royal_a person_n and_o dignity_n therefore_o the_o king_n break_v his_o first_o promise_n of_o maintain_v the_o law_n against_o what_o opposition_n soever_o which_o only_o concern_v his_o subject_n interest_n their_o liberty_n and_o their_o property_n there_o be_v nothing_o plain_a then_o that_o both_o these_o promise_n may_v well_o consist_v together_o without_o

repeal_v all_o the_o law_n make_v against_o recusant_n therefore_o the_o king_n be_v a_o papist_n than_o it_o be_v to_o say_v the_o king_n will_v make_v no_o law_n against_o the_o read_n of_o the_o
