they_o do_v deny_v he_o to_o be_v a_o p●rt_n of_o the_o parliament_n sure_o i_o be_o in_o all_o their_o address_n unto_o he_o they_o prostrate_v themselves_o in_o the_o humble_a term_n as_o your_o majesty_n most_o humble_a and_o loyal_a subject_n the_o lord_n and_o commons_o in_o this_o present_a parliament_n assemble_v they_o style_v themselves_o his_o parliament_n and_o his_o great_a counsel_n all_o which_o prove_v to_o my_o understanding_n that_o in_o he_o alone_o remain_v the_o supreme_a power_n which_o you_o will_v seem_v to_o place_n in_o they_o alone_o without_o he_o and_o infer_v that_o they_o have_v power_n to_o call_v he_o to_o a_o account_n for_o the_o defect_n of_o his_o government_n which_o they_o have_v never_o affirm_v nay_o they_o be_v so_o far_o from_o affirm_v any_o such_o thing_n that_o they_o decline_v that_o it_o be_v a_o maxim_n in_o our_o law_n that_o the_o king_n can_v do_v no_o wrong_n and_o all_o the_o defect_n of_o government_n they_o lie_v upon_o evil_a minister_n that_o have_v abuse_v his_o trust_n so_o that_o the_o supreme_a power_n be_v in_o the_o king_n when_o the_o command_v of_o both_o house_n and_o his_o be_v opposite_a that_o i_o yield_v my_o obedience_n unto_o he_o be_v full_a satisfaction_n to_o my_o conscience_n resol_n do_v you_o not_o allow_v that_o the_o safety_n of_o the_o people_n be_v the_o supreme_a law_n and_o the_o foundation_n of_o all_o government_n doubt_n i_o do_v res_fw-la do_v you_o conceive_v the_o safety_n of_o the_o people_n to_o be_v sufficient_o provide_v for_o when_o it_o depend_v on_o the_o judgement_n and_o will_n of_o one_o man_n doubt_n i_o confess_v free_o i_o do_v conceive_v it_o be_v not_o safe_a that_o it_o shall_v be_v so_o and_o i_o have_v oftentimes_o consider_v it_o and_o do_v vudoubted_o believe_v that_o they_o can_v never_o be_v better_o provide_v of_o their_o safety_n then_o to_o be_v at_o the_o sole_a dispose_n of_o the_o two_o house_n of_o parliament_n though_o the_o king_n shall_v be_v no_o part_n thereof_o for_o be_v he_o the_o wise_a man_n in_o the_o world_n he_o be_v but_o one_o man_n and_o that_o great_a counsel_n can_v not_o be_v much_o better_v by_o any_o one_o man_n judgement_n i_o conceive_v also_o the_o prejudice_n to_o be_v very_o great_a that_o the_o king_n shall_v have_v a_o negative_a voice_n or_o have_v the_o sole_a power_n of_o call_v and_o dissolve_v of_o parliament_n all_o this_o and_o more_o i_o see_v and_o judge_v as_o clear_o as_o you_o and_o have_v wonder_v that_o king_n shall_v be_v accountable_a only_o to_o god_n and_o not_o to_o the_o power_n of_o parliament_n but_o what_o be_v all_o this_o to_o i_o or_o to_o you_o if_o you_o will_v right_o consider_v who_o be_v subject_n and_o must_v and_o aught_o to_o submit_v to_o the_o constitution_n of_o our_o government_n and_o how_o prejudicial_a soever_o these_o constitution_n be_v we_o be_v not_o to_o interpose_v our_o particular_a judgement_n but_o to_o submit_v with_o all_o obedience_n and_o that_o the_o constitution_n of_o our_o government_n have_v place_v so_o great_a and_o absolute_a a_o power_n in_o the_o king_n i_o be_o induce_v to_o believe_v from_o the_o two_o house_n own_o expression_n and_o the_o king_n claim_v uncontradict_v or_o not_o so_o plain_o as_o that_o i_o understand_v it_o resol_n to_o my_o mind_n now_o i_o see_v some_o reason_n induce_v the_o parliament_n to_o use_v such_o low_a expression_n and_o humble_a term_n which_o occasion_n in_o you_o though_o not_o just_o a_o disesteem_v of_o their_o power_n for_o you_o will_v find_v when_o you_o have_v consider_v all_o you_o can_v the_o king_n be_v only_o the_o supreme_a magistrate_n but_o the_o parliament_n be_v the_o supreme_a power_n from_o which_o there_o be_v no_o appeal_n and_o by_o parliament_n i_o understand_v the_o two_o house_n of_o lord_n and_o commons_o and_o their_o force_n and_o power_n to_o be_v just_o in_o the_o mayor_n part_n &_o their_o vote_n to_o be_v the_o reason_n of_o the_o kingdom_n one_o reason_n may_v be_v the_o long_a disuse_n of_o the_o parliamentary_a power_n occasion_v by_o a_o strong_a hand_n bear_v over_o they_o by_o the_o king_n and_o most_o of_o his_o predecessor_n who_o have_v all_o endeavour_v to_o abate_v their_o power_n and_o thereby_o to_o advance_v the_o power_n of_o the_o king_n above_o the_o power_n of_o parliament_n which_o take_v effect_n by_o degree_n and_o get_v ground_n by_o long_a disuse_n and_o abuse_v of_o parliament_n abridge_n their_o privilege_n and_o oppress_v many_o of_o their_o member_n so_o that_o now_o in_o our_o present_a age_n man_n esteem_v of_o the_o parliamentary_a power_n just_a as_o king_n will_v have_v they_o and_o according_a to_o their_o politician_n interpretation_n and_o can_v so_o much_o as_o guess_v what_o their_o power_n be_v in_o deed_n and_o in_o truth_n and_o when_o any_o man_n speak_v of_o a_o unlimited_a power_n in_o they_o that_o they_o be_v neither_o bound_n to_o observe_v form_n nor_o limit_v by_o precedent_n nor_o law_n but_o may_v lawful_o proceed_v to_o do_v whatsoever_o the_o safety_n of_o the_o people_n who_o guardian_n they_o be_v shall_v invite_v they_o unto_o when_o they_o be_v tell_v that_o their_o power_n be_v above_o the_o power_n of_o king_n and_o that_o king_n be_v accountable_a unto_o they_o that_o the_o king_n be_v bind_v by_o law_n to_o call_v a_o parliament_n once_o every_o year_n and_o often_o if_o need_v be_v even_o by_o that_o law_n which_o so_o provide_v an._n 4._o edw._n 3._o &_o 36._o that_o his_o assent_n be_v require_v be_v but_o to_o bind_v he_o to_o see_v that_o the_o inferior_a magistrate_n put_v that_o law_n in_o due_a execution_n out_o of_o time_n of_o parliament_n and_o be_v only_a matter_n of_o form_n and_o compliment_n of_o every_o act_n institute_v at_o first_o by_o those_o our_o forefather_n who_o expect_v that_o our_o king_n will_v be_v ever_o the_o best_a affect_v unto_o parliament_n of_o any_o man_n in_o the_o kingdom_n or_o that_o our_o care_n will_v be_v such_o that_o they_o shall_v not_o long_o continue_v the_o worst_a affect_v which_o also_o be_v the_o cause_n that_o they_o be_v entrust_v with_o the_o call_n and_o dissolve_v of_o parliament_n not_o once_o imagine_v that_o these_o thing_n shall_v ever_o have_v be_v turn_v to_o our_o ruin_n which_o be_v intend_v for_o our_o preservation_n though_o no_o man_n can_v deny_v these_o thing_n to_o be_v just_a and_o reasonable_a yet_o when_o they_o be_v speak_v to_o the_o people_n they_o grow_v angry_a and_o be_v offend_v and_o think_v it_o to_o be_v no_o less_o than_o treason_n and_o therefore_o i_o conceive_v the_o parliament_n in_o their_o address_n unto_o the_o king_n have_v use_v such_o language_n as_o you_o have_v recite_v lest_o the_o people_n shall_v have_v think_v they_o have_v usurp_v a_o authority_n above_o what_o be_v their_o due_n and_o be_v thereby_o exasperate_v may_v though_o to_o their_o own_o ruin_n have_v quarrel_v at_o all_o their_o proceed_n which_o i_o be_o induce_v to_o believe_v because_o i_o have_v observe_v the_o parliament_n have_v reveal_v their_o power_n but_o by_o degree_n and_o only_o upon_o necessity_n that_o necessity_n may_v make_v the_o people_n know_v that_o that_o power_n be_v just_a and_o reasonable_a as_o fear_v the_o people_n weakness_n can_v not_o digest_v those_o strong_a and_o sinewy_a truth_n whereunto_o their_o stomach_n have_v not_o of_o long_a time_n be_v accustom_v though_o indeed_o it_o be_v the_o only_a food_n that_o make_v we_o firm_a and_o resolute_a and_o true_a englishman_n doubt_n these_o thing_n which_o you_o allege_v carry_v some_o colour_n in_o they_o but_o sure_o do_v the_o parliament_n judge_v of_o thing_n as_o you_o do_v they_o can_v not_o in_o my_o judgement_n have_v do_v themselves_o more_o good_a nor_o the_o kingdom_n more_o right_a than_o to_o have_v use_v in_o all_o their_o address_n to_o the_o king_n such_o language_n as_o have_v most_o proper_o express_v their_o full_a power_n and_o his_o office_n for_o how_o else_o shall_v the_o kingdom_n ever_o right_o understand_v that_o relation_n which_o the_o parliament_n have_v unto_o the_o common_a wealth_n and_o that_o relation_n which_o the_o king_n have_v unto_o the_o common_a wealth_n for_o admit_v i_o shall_v approve_v all_o that_o you_o say_v or_o have_v say_v to_o be_v reasonable_a whether_o be_v more_o safe_a for_o i_o to_o be_v guide_v by_o your_o opinion_n or_o the_o expression_n of_o parliament_n which_o incline_v i_o quite_o contrary_a to_o your_o opinion_n in_o this_o case_n you_o nor_o no_o reasonable_a man_n in_o the_o world_n can_v blame_v i_o if_o i_o stand_v suspend_v till_o the_o judgement_n of_o parliament_n by_o clear_a expression_n give_v weight_n to_o your_o opinion_n for_o by_o their_o judgement_n clear_o express_v their_o power_n what_o it_o
