when_o most_o country_n have_v find_v out_o a_o art_n and_o peaceable_a order_n for_o public_a assembly_n whereby_o the_o people_n may_v assume_v its_o own_o power_n to_o do_v itself_o right_a without_o disturbance_n to_o itself_o or_o injury_n to_o prince_n he_o be_v unjust_a that_o will_v oppose_v that_o art_n and_o order_n that_o prince_n may_v not_o be_v beyond_o all_o limit_n of_o

that_o our_o parliament_n be_v such_o public_a assembly_n wherein_o the_o community_n in_o underive_v majesty_n convene_v to_o do_v justice_n upon_o the_o king_n true_o i_o be_o not_o so_o well_o affect_v to_o arbitrary_a government_n as_o to_o admit_v the_o judgement_n much_o less_o the_o thought_n of_o one_o man_n to_o be_v proof_n of_o law_n and_o government_n we_o shall_v therefore_o by_o god_n help_v examine_v how_o well_o this_o new_a conceit_n agree_v with_o our_o law_n and_o ancient_a settle_a frame_n of_o government_n but_o this_o be_v obvious_a a_o forehand_n that_o it_o be_v

that_o unless_o you_o will_v call_v the_o assembly_n of_o some_o mere_a popular_a republic_n such_o a_o assembly_n there_o be_v not_o the_o ordinance_n of_o any_o such_o assembly_n to_o be_v find_v in_o all_o the_o world_n and_o the_o reduce_n of_o our_o parliament_n to_o such_o assembly_n will_v suit_v as_o well_o as_o the_o shape_a of_o our_o kingdom_n to_o the_o frame_n of_o the_o commonwealth_n of_o the_o venetian_n or_o of_o the_o hollander_n that_o we_o may_v know_v therefore_o that_o our_o parliament_n be_v no_o such_o imaginary_a assembly_n in_o which_o the_o people_n in_o underive_v majesty_n convene_v to_o assume_v any_o power_n suppose_v to_o be_v they_o original_o and_o with_o that_o power_n to_o do_v themselves_o right_a even_o the_o observour_n himself_o have_v assure_v we_o when_o in_o his_o fast_n and_o loose_a play_n he_o unaware_o confess_v that_o the_o composition_n of_o our_o parliament_n be_v so_o equal_a and_o geometrical_a and_o all_o part_n so_o

extreme_a predominance_n of_o one_o of_o the_o part_n above_o the_o other_o then_o can_v they_o not_o be_v assembly_n of_o resumption_n of_o the_o people_n suppose_a power_n for_o in_o such_o
