they_o reprehend_v in_o her_o highness_n government_n be_v there_o unanswered_a and_o therefore_o i_o have_v think_v good_a to_o re●ell_v it_o in_o this_o place_n they_o signify_v unto_o the_o spaniard_n that_o her_o majesty_n have_v before_o the_o come_v of_o his_o invincible_a navy_n so_o overcharge_v her_o subject_n with_o new_a subsidy_n and_o unaccustomed_a tax_n and_o imposition_n

some_o of_o they_o h●th_v not_o be_v content_v with_o a_o single_a susidie_n but_o have_v charge_v her_o subject_n with_o a_o double_a subsidy_n a_o matter_n as_o they_o say_v never_o hear_v of_o in_o any_o of_o her_o predecessor_n time_n nor_o then_o needful_a when_o it_o be_v require_v for_o the_o better_a answer_v of_o this_o objection_n i_o must_v run_v over_o the_o whole_a reign_v of_o some_o of_o her_o majesty_n predecessor_n thereby_o to_o make_v it_o appear_v that_o they_o call_v parliament_n and_o levy_a subsidy_n as_o often_o as_o her_o highness_n have_v do_v and_o because_o it_o will_v be_v tedious_a to_o trouble_v you_o with_o many_o i_o have_v restrain_v myself_o unto_o two_o only_a namely_o unto_o ed._n 1._o and_o ed._n the_o 3._o the_o commons_o grant_v a_o subsidy_n unto_o edward_n the_o first_o in_o the_o three_o year_n of_o his_o reign_n and_o another_o within_o two_o year_n after_o then_o have_v no_o extraordinary_a expense_n until_o the_o eleven_o year_n of_o his_o reign_n which_o be_v six_o year_n after_o he_o obtain_v another_o subsidy_n and_o when_o he_o have_v reign_v two_o and_o twenty_o year_n the_o clergy_n give_v he_o the_o half_a of_o their_o

he_o levy_v of_o all_o townsman_n and_o citizen_n the_o eight_o part_n and_o of_o the_o country_n people_n the_o twelve_o part_n of_o their_o good_n and_o because_o the_o clergy_n refuse_v to_o

so_o prince_n when_o strange_a king_n come_v into_o their_o country_n will_v prefer_v they_o before_o themselves_o it_o be_v certain_a that_o the_o emperor_n precede_v of_o right_a all_o the_o prince_n of_o christendom_n and_o yet_o when_o francis_n the_o first_o king_n of_o france_n be_v bring_v from_o pavia_n where_o he_o be_v take_v prisoner_n into_o spain_n at_o their_o fi●st_a

have_v make_v the_o earl_n of_o savoy_n as_o you_o have_v hear_v upon_o a_o other_o occasion_n duke_n at_o lion_n he_o be_v command_v by_o the_o king_n attorney_n not_o to_o attempt_v any_o such_o

seem_v unto_o the_o french_a king_n that_o he_o be_v not_o to_o suffer_v he_o to_o use_v any_o royal_a authority_n within_o his_o dominion_n the_o queen_n of_o scot_n therefore_o when_o she_o be_v in_o england_n majesty_n be_v inferior_a unto_o the_o queen_n majesty_n and_o this_o inferioritie_n be_v prove_v by_o three_o other_o principal_a reason_n the_o one_o because_o there_o be_v a_o inequality_n betwixt_o king_n one_o of_o they_o be_v better_o than_o a_o other_o the_o other_o because_o she_o be_v her_o majesty_n vassal_n and_o the_o three_o because_o she_o be_v depose_v and_o so_o no_o long_o a_o queen_n first_o for_o the_o inequality_n it_o be_v certain_a that_o the_o king_n of_o spain_n and_o of_o france_n be_v both_o resolute_a prince_n and_o yet_o france_n challenge_v precedency_n before_o spain_n for_o five_o principal_a cause_n the_o first_o because_o the_o consent_n and_o opinion_n of_o the_o learned_a be_v for_o france_n and_o not_o for_o spain_n the_o second_o because_o the_o french_a king_n have_v a_o long_a time_n have_v the_o honour_n to_o be_v emperor_n and_o not_o the_o king_n of_o spain_n the_o three_o because_o the_o french_a king_n have_v be_v call_v most_o christian_a king_n these_o many_o hundred_o year_n and_o ferdinando_n the_o five_o be_v the_o first_o and_o that_o but_o late_o that_o be_v call_v the_o catholic_n king_n of_o spain_n the_o four_o because_o at_o the_o feast_n of_o st._n george_n in_o england_n france_n even_o in_o queen_n mary_n time_n be_v prefer_v before_o spain_n the_o five_o because_o the_o house_n of_o france_n be_v more_o ancient_a than_o that_o of_o spain_n which_o reign_v long_o before_o the_o castle_n of_o haspurge_n be_v build_v the_o six_o and_o last_o because_o the_o book_n of_o ceremony_n which_o be_v keep_v at_o rome_n prefer_v france_n before_o spain_n next_o to_o france_n be_v england_n as_o appear_v by_o the_o same_o book_n which_o put_v england_n in_o the_o second_o place_n and_o spain_n in_o the_o three_o again_o those_o king_n be_v best_a which_o be_v crown_v and_o by_o the_o same_o book_n it_o be_v evident_a that_o france_n england_n and_o spain_n only_o have_v crown_v king_n next_o it_o seem_v that_o the_o mean_a sort_n of_o king_n also_o strive_v for_o precedency_n and_o one_o of_o they_o will_v be_v account_v better_a than_o another_o for_o it_o be_v write_v
