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

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
