to_o which_o we_o further_a humble_o offer_v 4._o that_o secure_a provision_n may_v be_v make_v for_o the_o continuance_n of_o future_a parliament_n so_o as_o they_o may_v not_o be_v adjournable_a or_o dissolvable_a at_o the_o king_n pleasure_n or_o any_o other_o way_n than_o by_o their_o own_o consent_n during_o their_o respective_a period_n but_o at_o those_o period_n each_o parliament_n to_o determine_v of_o course_n as_o before_o this_o we_o desire_v may_v be_v now_o provide_v for_o if_o it_o may_v be_v so_o as_o to_o put_v it_o out_o of_o all_o dispute_n for_o future_a though_o we_o think_v of_o right_n it_o ought_v not_o to_o have_v be_v otherwise_o before_o and_o thus_o a_o firm_a foundation_n be_v say_v in_o the_o authority_n and_o constitution_n of_o parliament_n for_o the_o hope_n at_o least_o of_o common_a and_o equal_a right_n and_o freedom_n to_o ourselves_o and_o all_o the_o freeborn_a people_n of_o this_o land_n we_o shall_v for_o our_o part_n free_o and_o cheerful_o commit_v our_o stock_n or_o share_n of_o interest_n in_o this_o kingdom_n into_o this_o common_a bottom_n of_o parliament_n and_o though_o it_o may_v for_o our_o particular_n go_v ill_o with_o we_o in_o one_o voyage_n yet_o we_o shall_v thus_o hope_v if_o right_o be_v with_o we_o to_o fare_v better_a in_o another_o these_o thing_n we_o desire_v may_v be_v provide_v for_o by_o bill_n or_o ordinance_n of_o parliament_n to_o which_o the_o royal_a assent_n may_v be_v desire_v and_o when_o his_o majesty_n in_o these_o thing_n and_o what_o else_o shall_v be_v propose_v by_o the_o parliament_n necessary_a for_o secure_v the_o right_n and_o liberty_n of_o the_o people_n and_o for_o settle_v the_o militia_n and_o peace_n of_o the_o kingdom_n shall_v have_v give_v his_o concurrence_n to_o put_v they_o past_o all_o dispute_n we_o shall_v then_o desire_v that_o the_o right_n of_o his_o majesty_n and_o his_o posterity_n may_v be_v consider_v of_o and_o settle_v in_o all_o thing_n so_o far_o as_o may_v consist_v with_o the_o right_n and_o freedom_n of_o the_o subject_a and_o with_o the_o security_n of_o the_o same_o for_o future_a 5._o we_o desire_v that_o the_o right_n and_o freedom_n of_o the_o people_n to_o represent_v by_o way_n of_o humble_a petition_n to_o the_o parliament_n their_o grievance_n in_o such_o thing_n as_o can_v otherwise_o be_v remedy_v then_o by_o parliament_n may_v be_v clear_v and_o vindicate_v that_o all_o such_o grievance_n of_o the_o people_n may_v be_v free_o receive_v and_o admit_v into_o consideration_n and_o put_v into_o a_o equitable_a and_o speedy_a way_n to_o be_v hear_v examine_v and_o redress_v if_o they_o appear_v real_a and_o that_o in_o such_o thing_n for_o which_o man_n have_v remedy_n by_o law_n they_o may_v be_v free_o leave_v to_o the_o benefit_n of_o law_n and_o the_o regulate_a course_n of_o justice_n without_o interruption_n or_o check_n from_o the_o parliament_n except_o in_o case_n of_o thing_n do_v upon_o the_o exigency_n of_o war_n or_o for_o the_o service_n and_o benefit_n of_o the_o parliament_n and_o kingdom_n in_o relation_n to_o the_o war_n or_o otherwise_o in_o due_a pursuance_n and_o execution_n of_o ordinance_n or_o order_n of_o parliament_n more_o particular_o under_o this_o head_n we_o can_v but_o desire_v that_o all_o such_o as_o be_v imprison_v for_o any_o pretend_a misdemenor_n may_v be_v put_v into_o a_o speedy_a way_n for_o a_o just_a hear_n and_o trial_n and_o such_o as_o shall_v appear_v to_o have_v be_v unjust_o and_o undue_o imprison_v may_v with_o their_o liberty_n have_v some_o reasonable_a reparation_n according_a to_o their_o suffering_n and_o the_o demerit_n of_o their_o oppressor_n 6._o that_o the_o large_a power_n give_v to_o committee_n or_o deputy_n lieutenant_n during_o the_o late_a time_n of_o war_n and_o distraction_n may_v be_v speedy_o take_v into_o consideration_n that_o such_o of_o those_o power_n as_o appear_v not_o necessary_a to_o be_v continue_v may_v be_v take_v away_o and_o such_o of_o they_o as_o be_v necessary_a be_v put_v into_o a_o regulate_a way_n and_o leave_v to_o as_o little_a arbitrariness_n as_o the_o nature_n and_o necessity_n of_o the_o thing_n wherein_o they_o be_v conversant_a will_v bear_v 7._o we_o can_v wish_v that_o the_o kingdom_n may_v both_o be_v right_v and_o public_o satisfy_v in_o point_n of_o account_n for_o the_o vast_a sum_n that_o have_v be_v levy_v and_o pay_v as_o also_o in_o divers_a other_o thing_n wherein_o the_o commonwealth_n may_v be_v conceive_v to_o have_v be_v wrong_v or_o

and_o general_a composure_n and_o quiet_v of_o man_n mind_n in_o order_n to_o peace_n for_o which_o purpose_n we_o further_o propose_v 8._o that_o pablique_a justice_n be_v first_o satisfy_v by_o some_o few_o example_n to_o posterity_n out_o of_o the_o worst_a of_o except_a person_n and_o other_o delinquent_n have_v past_o their_o composition_n some_o course_n may_v be_v take_v by_o a_o act_n
