up_o into_o so_o high_a request_n but_o take_v the_o argument_n at_o the_o best_a it_o follow_v not_o that_o the_o parliament_n intend_v to_o assume_v the_o sovereign_a authority_n because_o when_o ireland_n be_v in_o rebellion_n england_n in_o combustion_n scotland_n scarce_o quiet_v france_n and_o spain_n in_o arm_n they_o do_v humble_o supplicate_v his_o majesty_n to_o entrust_v for_o a_o short_a and_o limit_v time_n the_o militia_n under_o the_o command_n of_o person_n of_o honour_n that_o the_o lord_n and_o commons_o those_o who_o blood_n and_o estate_n must_v defend_v the_o state_n may_v repose_v faith_n in_o yet_o this_o be_v not_o to_o be_v grant_v and_o the_o fear_n and_o jealousy_n of_o his_o majesty_n best_a kingdom_n and_o most_o obedient_a subject_n hold_v so_o unworthy_a of_o any_o regard_n or_o satisfaction_n that_o they_o be_v esteem_v and_o so_o publish_v for_o frivolous_a and_o false_a pretend_a mere_o to_o obtain_v a_o unjust_a purchase_n out_o of_o the_o king_n prerogative_n for_o the_o nomination_n of_o prime_a officer_n counsellor_n and_o judge_n i_o presume_v that_o request_n result_v out_o of_o the_o precedent_a misgovernment_n and_o be_v intend_v only_o for_o this_o time_n and_o peradventure_o the_o temper_n will_v be_v better_o for_o the_o people_n that_o the_o king_n be_v once_o environ_v with_o a_o wise_a and_o religious_a council_n appoint_v judge_n and_o public_a officer_n who_o the_o people_n may_v if_o there_o be_v cause_n accuse_v and_o the_o parliament_n judge_v nor_o will_v this_o branch_n of_o the_o king_n prerogative_n be_v reach_v at_o by_o the_o people_n if_o the_o judge_n who_o ought_v to_o be_v conservator_n of_o the_o law_n have_v not_o be_v the_o distroyer_n if_o the_o the_o counsel_n of_o a_o few_o even_o in_o parliament_n time_n have_v not_o involve_v the_o whole_a state_n in_o a_o common_a calamity_n and_o contest_v with_o the_o grand_a counsel_n of_o the_o kingdom_n assume_v to_o themselves_o more_o zealous_a affection_n to_o his_o majesty_n a_o great_a care_n of_o the_o commonwealth_n &_o a_o better_a discern_v what_o be_v necessary_a and_o fit_a for_o both_o yet_o the_o election_n of_o public_a officer_n be_v not_o without_o precedent_n in_o the_o time_n of_o former_a king_n but_o i_o will_v not_o have_v those_o king_n precedent_n to_o his_o majesty_n that_o such_o demand_n may_v not_o be_v

for_o their_o own_o safety_n which_o ought_v to_o be_v spend_v in_o redress_n of_o public_a disorder_n and_o vindication_n of_o the_o subject_n from_o oppression_n do_v they_o pretend_v fear_n because_o they_o will_v rule_v let_v his_o majesty_n render_v those_o fear_n apparent_o false_a and_o concur_v more_o hearty_o than_o they_o in_o secure_v the_o kingdom_n let_v he_o grant_v commission_n for_o ireland_n let_v he_o grant_v guard_n for_o the_o parliament_n as_o well_o to_o secure_v their_o fear_n as_o their_o danger_n why_o shall_v his_o majesty_n confirm_v their_o fear_n by_o discharge_v their_o guard_n and_o attempt_v their_o person_n if_o he_o know_v they_o to_o be_v safe_a let_v they_o know_v it_o also_o or_o confute_v their_o fear_n to_o the_o understanding_n of_o

of_o his_o majesty_n i_o be_o sure_a if_o they_o be_v voluntary_a they_o be_v not_o exhibit_v with_o due_a circumstance_n for_o through_o that_o opinion_n his_o majesty_n have_v lose_v much_o of_o the_o thanks_n due_a for_o such_o transcendent_a grace_n which_o no_o prince_n or_o inferior_a person_n aught_o in_o discretion_n to_o loose_v however_o that_o both_o house_n legal_o convene_v and_o

that_o can_v be_v say_v be_v that_o by_o a_o act_n of_o all_o the_o estate_n this_o parliament_n be_v not_o disolveable_a but_o by_o a_o act_n of_o all_o the_o estate_n therefore_o a_o parliament_n until_o that_o act_n be_v pass_v to_o the_o other_o part_n of_o the_o allegation_n that_o major_a part_n of_o both_o house_n have_v leave_v the_o rest_n and_o be_v go_v over_o to_o the_o king_n it_o may_v be_v demand_v why_o do_v not_o then_o his_o majesty_n send_v they_o up_o to_o adjourn_v the_o parliament_n to_o oxford_n or_o cambridge_n be_v they_o so_o fearful_a of_o the_o aprentize_n of_o
