The Petition of Right was created in 1628. It was a response to King Charles I's actions that Parliament saw as overstepping monarchical power. Absolutism refers to a system where a monarch has absolute power. The Petition of Right aimed to limit the king's power (like in areas of taxation without Parliament's consent, forced billeting of soldiers, etc.), which was a challenge to the idea of the monarch having absolute (unlimited) power. Tyranny is more about cruel and oppressive rule in a general sense. Limitations is a bit of a circular answer as the Petition was to set limitations, not because of concerns about existing limitations. Instability is not the main issue here. The core was the conflict over the extent of monarchical power (absolutism).
