00Your sentence is a command and cannot really be transformed into a passive without some changes. One possible way of making a passive sentence with a similar meaning is this:02br
02br
01i00I should/must be allowed to try first.02br
02br

let it be tried by me first

That successfully makes the word "try" passive, Anon.
However, I'd say it's very unlikely that a native-speaker of English would ever actually use that sentence.
