that_o they_o of_o themselves_o without_o the_o consent_n of_o the_o king_n and_o the_o lord_n have_v power_n to_o make_v law_n for_o the_o kingdom_n as_o by_o this_o charter_n the_o lord_n major_n

think_v your_o argument_n be_v not_o true_a and_o therefore_o for_o after_o time_n let_v i_o advise_v you_o that_o if_o you_o will_v imitate_v a_o argument_n in_o the_o word_n of_o it_o be_v sure_a you_o imitate_v it_o also_o in_o the_o proof_n of_o it_o and_o let_v they_o be_v as_o full_a and_o clear_a for_o the_o confirmation_n of_o what_o you_o affirm_v for_o it_o be_v not_o word_n though_o never_o so_o smooth_a that_o prove_v any_o thing_n in_o matter_n of_o fact_n as_o this_o be_v and_o true_o shall_v i_o have_v lay_v down_o that_o argument_n to_o prove_v the_o power_n of_o the_o court_n of_o common-council_n as_o unto_o the_o make_n of_o city_n law_n to_o be_v above_o the_o lord_n major_n and_o alderman_n and_o not_o have_v prove_v it_o de_fw-la facto_fw-la by_o the_o act_n of_o the_o court_n of_o common-council_n i_o shall_v have_v think_v it_o at_o least_o to_o have_v be_v a_o scandalum_fw-la magnatum_fw-la against_o the_o lord_n major_n and_o alderman_n and_o very_o blame-worthy_a in_o myself_o to_o have_v do_v it_o but_o perhaps_o you_o think_v the_o condition_n of_o the_o king_n and_o the_o lord_n to_o be_v such_o as_o that_o whatever_o you_o speak_v or_o publish_v concerning_o they_o tend_v to_o the_o annihilate_n of_o their_o legislative_a power_n and_o authority_n in_o parliament_n can_v neither_o be_v a_o offence_n to_o they_o nor_o a_o fault_n in_o you_o or_o if_o it_o be_v it_o seem_v you_o regard_v it_o not_o but_o i_o hope_v you_o will_v not_o take_v it_o amiss_o if_o as_o i_o do_v in_o that_o so_o i_o desire_v you_o in_o this_o either_o to_o produce_v a_o proof_n d●_z facto_fw-la to_o make_v good_a that_o the_o house_n of_o commons_o have_v by_o a_o act_n of_o that_o house_n alone_o confer_v a_o power_n upon_o the_o king_n and_o lord_n as_o king_n and_o lord_n they_o have_v not_o before_o which_o be_v the_o very_a word●_z of_o your_o argument_n or_o else_o in_o plain_a english_a to_o tell_v the_o reader●_n that_o though_o you_o can_v transcribe_v the_o word_n of_o my_o argument_n which_o a_o child_n of_o ten_o year_n old_a can_v do_v as_o well_o as_o you_o yet_o now_o upon_o second_o thought_n you_o must_v needs_o confess_v you_o come_v very_o short_a in_o a_o parallel_a proof_n of_o it_o there_o neither_o now_o be_v nor_o never_o be_v any_o act_n of_o the_o house_n of_o commons_o that_o do_v prove_v that_o that_o house_n alone_o and_o by_o itself_o do_v ever_o make_v a_o law_n which_o do_v confer_v a_o power_n upon_o the_o king_n and_o lord_n which_o as_o king_n and_o lord_n they_o have_v not_o before_o and_o without_o this_o proof_n i_o persuade_v myself_o no_o man_n will_v believe_v that_o as_o unto_o the_o make_n of_o a_o law_n the_o house_n of_o commons_o be_v above_o the_o king_n and_o lord_n though_o mr._n i._n p._n affirm_v it_o to_o be_v so_o and_o this_o i_o give_v not_o only_o as_o a_o solution_n to_o this_o your_o argument_n but_o also_o to_o the_o other_o argument_n which_o follow_v viz._n concerning_o the_o power_n of_o the_o house_n of_o commons_o alone_o without_o the_o king_n and_o lord_n to_o repeal_v what_o law_n they_o think_v meet_v and_o to_o make_v law_n and_o rule_n for_o all_o the_o court_n and_o people_n in_o england_n to_o be_v steer_v and_o act_v by_o and_o whereunto_o say_v you_o the_o king_n himself_o be_v bind_v by_o his_o oath_n and_o therefore_o ought_v in_o duty_n to_o cons●ut_v and_o likewise_o to_o that_o which_o you_o say_v will_v follow_v from_o my_o logic_n viz._n that_o the_o kingdom_n representative_a be_v inferior_a in_o its_o power_n in_o reference_n to_o the_o government_n of_o the_o kingdom_n than_o the_o city_n representative_a be_v in_o reference_n to_o the_o government_n of_o the_o city_n and_o to_o the_o other_o query_n which_o you_o ground_n upon_o they_o for_o they_o all_o alike_o hang_v upon_o this_o string_n and_o if_o in_o the_o opinion_n of_o the_o reader_n to_o who_o judgement_n i_o refer_v it_o this_o be_v ●ut_o asunder_o i_o be_o sure_a they_o must_v all_o then_o needs_o fall_v to_o the_o ground_n and_o therefore_o i_o shall_v not_o need_v to_o trouble_v myself_o any_o more_o with_o they_o and_o now_o mr._n i_n p._n i_o have_v endeavour_v with_o all_o the_o candour_n and_o tenderness_n i_o can_v to_o examine_v your_o book_n and_o have_v not_o i_o hope_v let_v one_o word_n fall_v from_o i_o that_o in_o

i_o have_v work_v more_o then_o enough_o to_o meddle_v with_o and_o to_o master_v my_o own_o or_o other_o your_o suppose_a error_n in_o matter_n of_o religion_n that_o i_o encounter_v with_o and_o if_o we_o can_v yet_o agree_v in_o this_o present_a difference_n and_o debate_n my_o earnest_a desire_n be_v and_o i_o trust_v ●y_v endeavour_v shall_v for_o ●ver_o be_v answerable_a thereunto_o that_o we_o may_v manage_v the_o matter_n with_o that_o sweet_a moderation_n and_o temper_n of_o spirit_n as_o become_v christian_n for_o of_o this_o i_o be_o confident_a that_o though_o through_o weakness_n or_o error_n in_o judgement_n perhaps_o i_o not_o you_o we_o can_v agree_v together_o to_o live_v in_o one_o church_n fellowship_n or_o communion_n here_o upon_o earth_n yet_o we_o shall_v
