he_o may_v not_o go_v but_o that_o he_o may_v stay_v here_o for_o the_o urgent_a affair_n of_o this_o kingdom_n but_o both_o in_o the_o one_o case_n and_o in_o the_o other_o the_o interest_n of_o the_o kingdom_n of_o scotland_n be_v preserve_v and_o as_o it_o be_v most_o necessary_a that_o his_o majesty_n shall_v go_v into_o that_o kingdom_n for_o receive_v that_o crown_n so_o his_o majesty_n
