by_o implication_n i_o will_v answer_v distinct_o concern_v this_o reservation_n of_o power_n of_o forcible_a resistance_n 1._o there_o be_v a_o reservation_n of_o liberty_n or_o power_n of_o not_o

of_o subversive_a instrument_n this_o by_o the_o authority_n of_o the_o law_n be_v not_o reserve_v but_o express_o commit_v not_o only_o to_o the_o house_n of_o parliament_n but_o all_o inferior_a
