A47446	The state of the Protestants of Ireland under the late King James's government in which their carriage towards him is justified, and the absolute necessity of their endeavouring to be freed from his government, and of submitting to their present Majesties is demonstrated.	King, William, 1650-1729.	1691 (1691)	Wing K538; ESTC R18475	310,433	450

or_o law_n whatsoever_o be_v take_v off_o there_o be_v already_o vacant_a in_o ireland_n one_o archbishopric_n and_o three_o bishopric_n they_o have_v attaint_v two_o of_o the_o survive_a archbishop_n and_o seven_o bishop_n so_o that_o they_o have_v already_o the_o jurisdiction_n of_o ¾_n of_o the_o kingdom_n by_o a_o law_n of_o their_o own_o make_n secure_v into_o the_o hand_n of_o papist_n and_o the_o rest_n be_v quick_o to_o follow_v 4._o but_o three_o where_o any_o shadow_n of_o jurisdiction_n remain_v with_o the_o protestant_a clergy_n they_o render_v it_o insignificant_a by_o encourage_v the_o most_o obstinate_a and_o perverse_a sectary_n and_o by_o show_v they_o favour_n according_a as_o they_o be_v most_o opposite_a and_o refractory_a to_o all_o ecclesiastical_a discipline_n and_o pay_v their_o due_n to_o the_o clergy_n this_o may_v be_v suppose_v one_o reason_n of_o their_o peculiar_a fondness_n of_o quaker_n and_o that_o it_o be_v upon_o this_o account_n chief_o they_o make_v they_o burgess_n or_o alderman_n in_o their_o new_a corporation_n and_o reckon_v they_o as_o most_o useful_a tool_n to_o pull_v down_o the_o discipline_n of_o the_o church_n though_o their_o tithe_n

more_o sensible_a loss_n to_o the_o protestant_a clergy_n because_o these_o be_v the_o only_a people_n that_o call_v themselves_o protestant_n who_o have_v any_o thing_n leave_v they_o out_o of_o which_o tithe_n be_v due_a 5._o it_o be_v on_o the_o same_o account_n that_o lewd_a and_o debauch_v convert_v be_v encourage_v among_o they_o and_o a_o man_n need_v no_o more_o to_o escape_v the_o

be_v all_o the_o right_o he_o can_v pretend_v it_o be_v notorious_a that_o in_o the_o vacancy_n of_o the_o archbishopric_n or_o in_o his_o absence_n when_o he_o can_v have_v intercourse_n with_o his_o
