A81579	The declaration, vindication, and protestation, of Edward Dobson, citizen, and stationer, of London. VVherein is shewed the many illegall and unjust imprisonments which the said stationer hath suffered, through the malicious and envious informations of Brownists, Anabaptists, Antinomians, and other seditious sectaries: contrary to the lawes of God, the liberty of the subject, and the lawes of the land, all which have been protested, and covenanted to be maintained with lives and fortunes. Together with the manner of his coming from Worcester to Northampton, and of his barbarous usage there, by the governour and others, contrary to the declaration published in the names of the two kingdomes, upon the sincerity of which he did depend. Also a relation of his illegall imprisonment upon a pretended suspition of bringing a saw to the Irish Lords (as is most scandalously published) for their escape out of the Tower.	Dobson, Edward, 17th cent.	1644 (1644)	Wing D1751; Thomason E257_8; ESTC R212485	8,262	8

a_o strength_n as_o the_o king_n shall_v not_o be_v able_a to_o resist_v he_o and_o to_o force_v and_o compel_v the_o king_n to_o govern_v otherwise_o then_o according_a to_o his_o own_o royal_a

his_o treason_n and_o rebellion_n and_o therefore_o this_o be_v not_o only_o the_o sense_n of_o the_o law_n but_o even_o common_a reason_n and_o experience_n teach_v as_o much_o for_o the_o subject_n never_o obtain_v a_o superiority_n over_o their_o king_n but_o immediate_o follow_v the_o death_n and_o deposition_n of_o the_o king_n as_o in_o the_o example_n of_o edward_n the_o second_o and_z
