i_o will_v not_o say_v that_o you_o be_v heretic_n in_o this_o and_o in_o other_o your_o new-forged_n doctrine_n invent_v to_o subvert_v monarchy_n and_o episcopacy_n but_o i_o shall_v tell_v you_o

the_o clergy_n say_v you_o either_o hold_v their_o right_n and_o immunity_n by_o law_n or_o otherwise_o this_o be_v not_o to_o be_v deny_v but_o what_o follow_v upon_o this_o ib._n if_o by_o law_n

cease_v and_o so_o the_o king_n engagement_n in_o that_o particular_a if_o not_o by_o law_n it_o be_v but_o a_o usurpation_n you_o say_v it_o and_o we_o grant_v it_o for_o truth_n it_o be_v that_o we_o claim_v no_o right_n and_o immunity_n but_o what_o the_o ancient_a and_o christian_a law_n of_o this_o realm_n have_v confirm_v unto_o we_o by_o act_n of_o parliament_n 10._o you_o say_v that_o

that_o the_o parliament_n have_v power_n to_o alter_v the_o monarchical_a or_o fundamental_a law_n of_o this_o kingdom_n i_o be_o sure_a justice_n jenkins_n resolve_v that_o 29._o by_o the_o law_n

the_o citizen_n of_o london_n either_o hold_v their_o right_n and_o immunity_n by_o law_n or_o otherwise_o if_o by_o law_n than_o the_o parliament_n which_o have_v power_n to_o alter_v all_o law_n have_v power_n to_o alter_v such_o law_n as_o give_v they_o their_o immunity_n and_o those_o law_n alter_v the_o immunity_n cease_v if_o their_o immunity_n be_v not_o by_o law_n it_o be_v a_o

but_o i_o be_o sure_a no_o law_n can_v absolve_v he_o from_o a_o duty_n inherent_a to_o his_o crown_n and_o 20_o such_o be_v the_o duty_n of_o protect_v his_o subject_n from_o oppression_n and_o the_o
