of_o those_o law_n which_o concern_v the_o subject_n interest_n right_o and_o property_n as_o be_v most_o liable_a to_o their_o suspicion_n that_o the_o king_n by_o his_o prerogative_n or_o by_o

the_o king_n by_o a_o second_o promise_n undertake_v to_o dispense_v with_o a_o rigorous_a circumstance_n of_o one_o law_n which_o only_o diminish_v and_o minorate_v a_o little_a the_o grandour_n
