B
Such a power could not be the gift of a wise people, neither can any power. WHICH NEEDS CHECKING, be from God, yet the provision which the constitution makes supposes such a power to exist
C
though we have been wise enough to shut and lock a door against absolute Monarchy, we at the same time have been foolish enough to put the Crown in possession of the key
D
