this_o argument_n 2._o to_o cast_v further_o blame_v upon_o the_o king_n scil_n for_o have_v a_o worse_a opinion_n of_o they_o now_o then_o by_o these_o expression_n he_o seem_v to_o have_v have_v

of_o make_v war_n against_o his_o parliament_n have_v not_o only_o speak_v so_o well_o of_o they_o as_o before_z but_o renounce_v all_o intention_n of_o war_n to_o which_o purpose_n they_o allege_v
