That the law was made for securing the liberties of the people, by the frequent calling of Parliaments chosen by them; and is now become a fundamental part of our constitution not to be violated on slight pretences. II. That the many plausible arguments insinuated for repealing this act, are fallacious and inconclusive, and the consequences thereof may be fatal to the publick.
