it_o shall_v think_v fit_n to_o make_v choice_n first_o there_o be_v many_o english_a competitor_n who_o will_v hardly_o endure_v a_o stranger_n to_o be_v prefer_v before_o they_o for_o that_o they_o

to_o fortify_v himself_o against_o they_o he_o shall_v needs_o be_v constrain_v to_o bring_v in_o foreign_a force_n secondlie_o all_o englishman_n will_v follow_v english_a competitor_n for_o we_o

which_o in_o deed_n make_v great_a impression_n in_o the_o mind_n of_o many_o englishman_n i_o will_v handle_v these_o three_o thing_n in_o order_n first_o whither_o for_o the_o allege_v respect_n a_o

parliament_n can_v by_o any_o authority_n it_o have_v take_v away_o a_o king_n right_a to_o the_o crown_n according_a to_o the_o bind_a duty_n of_o a_o faithful_a and_o loyal_a subject_n and_o the_o place_n which_o i_o have_v be_v vouchsafe_v in_o it_o i_o do_v acknowledge_v and_o from_o my_o hart_n confess_v that_o it_o be_v most_o sacred_a most_o ample_a &_o large_a and_o have_v prerogative_n and_o preeminence_n far_o above_o any_o court_n what_o soever_o which_o be_v establish_v by_o god_n under_o the_o heaven_n but_o yet_o with_o the_o confidence_n of_o a_o good_a conscience_n i_o be_o

have_v be_v straight_o stint_v &_o define_v with_o the_o limit_n &_o mere_a of_o justice_n and_o equity_n and_o be_v appoint_v by_o god_n as_o the_o power_n next_o to_o himself_o to_o reform_v and_o

so_o as_o the_o near_a it_o be_v to_o god_n the_o more_o sound_a sincere_a and_o upright_o it_o ought_v to_o be_v be_v the_o court_n of_o most_o pure_a and_o exquisite_a judgement_n if_o therefore_o by_o presumption_n of_o the_o great_a power_n and_o authority_n which_o it_o have_v it_o do_v injury_n to_o any_o man_n or_o do_v transgress_v the_o bond_n of_o right_a i_o say_v this_o

that_o land_n over_o which_o he_o do_v place_v he_o these_o ground_n thus_o lay_v i_o say_v if_o the_o religious_a and_o wise_a king_n of_o scot_n have_v this_o right_a of_o god_n as_o the_o alleadger_n of_o these_o inconvenience_n do_v admit_v be_v willing_a to_o govern_v we_o according_a to_o our_o own_o law_n as_o no_o question_n he_o will_v it_o be_v the_o high_a injustice_n that_o
