they_o to_o other_o this_o i_o know_v will_v seem_v strange_a to_o many_o and_o be_v not_o clear_a to_o the_o army_n itself_o that_o the_o parliament_n shall_v become_v a_o subordinate_a and_o

since_o these_o war_n we_o know_v the_o main_a business_n of_o the_o parliament_n have_v be_v to_o serve_v the_o army_n to_o gather_v borrow_v and_o assess_v money_n for_o they_o and_o to_o provide_v
