can_v thus_o impudent_o still_o offer_v these_o thing_n which_o have_v be_v so_o often_o clear_v by_o the_o parliament_n of_o england_n and_o with_o light_n so_o state_v in_o their_o face_n that_o

but_o it_o dissolve_v the_o treaty_n and_o can_v never_o be_v repair_v but_o by_o mutual_a consent_n and_o therefore_o at_o this_o time_n this_o nation_n be_v through_o the_o merciful_a dispensation_n
