to_o be_v press_v with_o it_o any_o further_o because_o it_o be_v not_o a_o promise_n in_o itself_o but_o only_o a_o gracious_a declaration_n of_o your_o majesty_n intention_n to_o do_v what_o in_o

otherwise_o understand_v because_o there_o be_v law_n of_o uniformity_n then_o in_o be_v this_o note_v this_o which_o can_v not_o be_v dispeuse_v with_o but_o by_o act_n of_o parliament_n they_o who_o do_v pretend_v a_o right_a to_o that_o suppose_a promise_n put_v their_o right_n into_o the_o hand_n of_o their_o representative_n who_o they_o choose_v to_o serve_v for_o they_o in_o this_o
