some_o reflection_n on_o the_o oath_n &_o declaration_n appoint_v in_o a_o act_n pass_v in_o the_o first_o year_n of_o the_o reign_n of_o king_n william_n and_o queen_n mary_n in_o reference_n to_o

not_o yet_o my_o hap_n to_o be_v tender_v the_o new_a oath_n but_o suppose_v that_o at_o some_o time_n it_o may_v since_o in_o the_o last_o session_n of_o parliament_n there_o be_v agitation_n for_o bar_v all_o person_n from_o voice_n in_o election_n of_o member_n for_o parliament_n and_o from_o practice_n in_o their_o profession_n beside_o the_o penalty_n of_o this_o statute_n and_o payment_n of_o double_a tax_n in_o case_n of_o refuse_v to_o swear_v and_o declare_v as_o by_o this_o act_n be_v require_v these_o and_o some_o other_o consideration_n needless_a to_o particularize_v put_v i_o on_o search_n into_o the_o quality_n and_o sense_n of_o these_o oath_n with_o the_o duty_n and_o lawfulness_n of_o take_v or_o refuse_v they_o and_o first_o i_o observe_v that_o in_o these_o oath_n there_o be_v no_o declare_v or_o swear_v to_o the_o king_n supremacy_n in_o any_o thing_n or_o cause_n nor_o a_o renunciation_n of_o the_o right_n or_o title_n of_o any_o other_o person_n nor_o a_o

may_v have_v raise_v scruple_n if_o insert_v in_o these_o that_o be_v now_o frivolous_a i_o likewise_o observe_v that_o the_o nonjurat_a protestant_n and_o the_o catholic_n be_v not_o by_o the_o same_o reason_n induce_v to_o refuse_v to_o take_v these_o oath_n the_o one_o have_v swear_v the_o former_a the_o latter_a general_o refuse_v they_o on_o the_o whole_a i_o have_v make_v the_o
