and_o that_o if_o this_o parliament_n be_v dissolve_v there_o will_v be_v no_o great_a difficulty_n of_o get_v a_o new_a one_o which_o will_v be_v more_o useful_a the_o constitution_n of_o our_o

i_o never_o do_v for_o i_o know_v perfect_o well_o that_o the_o king_n have_v frequent_a dispute_n with_o himself_o at_o that_o time_n whether_o

he_o shall_v dissolve_v or_o continue_v they_o and_o he_o several_a time_n declare_v that_o the_o argument_n be_v so_o strong_a on_o both_o side_n that_o he_o can_v not_o tell_v to_o which_o to_o
