therefore_o the_o expression_n of_o that_o intention_n in_o this_o petition_n can_v prejudice_v we_o to_o which_o i_o answer_v first_o that_o our_o intention_n be_v and_o be_v as_o we_o then_o

right_n and_o liberty_n to_o be_v confirm_v to_o we_o and_o therefore_o it_o be_v not_o proper_a for_o we_o in_o it_o to_o mention_v sovereign_a power_n in_o general_n be_v altogether_o impertinent_a to_o the_o matter_n in_o the_o petition_n there_o be_v a_o great_a difference_n between_o the_o word_n of_o the_o addition_n and_o the_o word_n propose_v therein_o for_o reason_n viz._n between_o just_a power_n which_o may_v be_v conceive_v to_o be_v limit_v by_o law_n and_o sovereign_a power_n which_o be_v suppose_v to_o be_v transcendent_a and_o boundless_a the_o second_o reason_n deliver_v by_o their_o lordship_n be_v that_o the_o king_n be_v sovereign_a that_o as_o he_o be_v sovereign_a he_o have_v power_n and_o that_o that_o sovereign_a power_n be_v to_o be_v leave_v for_o my_o part_n

to_o be_v leave_v in_o the_o king_n of_o what_o we_o pray_v or_o at_o least_o admit_v some_o sovergain_n power_n in_o his_o majesty_n in_o these_o privilege_n which_o we_o claim_v to_o be_v our_o

conclusion_n of_o which_o act_n be_v that_o in_o all_o those_o case_n the_o king_n do_v well_o and_o all_o those_o that_o be_v at_o the_o make_n of_o that_o ordinance_n do_v intend_v that_o the_o

in_o the_o petition_n the_o king_n will_v be_v not_o express_v in_o that_o act_n the_o king_n do_v grant_v and_o depart_v with_o to_o his_o people_n divers_a right_n belong_v to_o his_o prerogative_n as_o in_o the_o first_o chapter_n he_o grant_v that_o the_o people_n may_v choose_v three_o man_n which_o may_v have_v power_n to_o hear_v and_o determine_v complaint_n make_v against_o those_o that_o offend_v in_o any_o point_n of_o magna_fw-la charta_fw-la though_o they_o be_v the_o king_n officer_n and_o to_o fine_a and_o ransom_n they_o and_o in_o the_o 8.12_o and_o 19_o chapter_n of_o that_o statute_n the_o king_n depart_v with_o other_o prerogative_n and_o therefore_o there_o may_v be_v some_o reason_n of_o the_o add_v of_o that_o sovereign_n by_o the_o king_n council_n but_o in_o this_o petition_n we_o desire_v nothing_o of_o the_o king_n prerogative_n but_o pray_v the_o enjoy_n of_o our_o proper_a and_o undoubted_a right_n and_o privilege_n and_o therefore_o there_o be_v no_o

that_o by_o the_o mouth_n of_o our_o speaker_n we_o have_v this_o parliament_n declare_v that_o it_o be_v far_o from_o our_o intention_n to_o encroach_v upon_o his_o majesty_n prerogative_n and_o that_o therefore_o it_o can_v not_o prejudice_v we_o to_o mention_v the_o same_o resolution_n in_o a_o addition_n to_o this_o petition_n to_o which_o i_o answer_v that_o that_o declaration_n be_v a_o

explanation_n of_o magna_fw-la charta_fw-la or_o the_o rest_n of_o the_o statute_n and_o therefore_o that_o expression_n of_o our_o speaker_n be_v then_o proper_a to_o make_v it_o have_v reference_n to_o this_o petition_n there_o be_v nothing_o therein_o contain_v but_o particular_a right_n of_o the_o subject_a and_o nothing_o at_o all_o concern_v his_o majesty_n prerogative_n second_o that_o
