be_v command_v by_o the_o parliament_n ought_v not_o to_o disobey_v their_o command_n though_o by_o the_o king_n command_v the_o contrary_a because_o the_o parliament_n be_v call_v and_o establish_v

they_o shall_v make_v a_o violation_n of_o that_o faith_n and_o trust_v repose_v in_o they_o so_o on_o the_o contrary_a part_n if_o they_o foresee_v a_o darger_n by_o their_o counsel_n and_o command_n
