have_v they_o believe_v king_n bind_v to_o year_o parliament_n but_o that_o king_n edward_n and_o his_o parliament_n which_o pass_v the_o law_n never_o intend_v or_o understand_v it_o in_o the_o

at_o this_o or_o that_o time_n as_o affair_n shall_v in_o his_o judgement_n require_v do_v remain_v undiminish_a by_o the_o say_a statute_n and_o they_o intend_v only_o this_o which_o be_v enough_o

whether_o it_o will_v not_o have_v be_v a_o great_a mischief_n rather_o than_o benefit_n to_o the_o people_n for_o in_o those_o day_n they_o that_o serve_v member_n in_o parliament_n be_v wont_a to_o
