the sayd practizers thair coÌ„ference are the bolder to speake against bothe as they haue greater reasons more effectuall motiues in vveight measure to dislike boath And that in respect as vvel of the

to supplant dispossesse disherit the true heire lavvfull successor of the english Crovvn vvith all the ofspriÌ„ge to translate and alter the ancient lavves and customes of that Realme and

Although the same deuice be opposit to that auncieÌ„t ordonaunce vvhich for abolishinge the force of Cesars Civil lavves our of that Realme for establishinge a municipial lavv there vvas ordained by

of the Christien Kinge of great britaine Lucius as also of his nobilitye spiritual and temporal lords of that Realme This deuice beinge once set dovvne then tvvo lavvyers the one a geÌ„tilmaÌ„

not only a traÌ„sfiguration of the shape forme of that common vvealth but a transmutation also or translation at least of the verye matter vvher vpon the true common vvealthe of englande euerye particular mans state doth rest and that is the lavves lavvful customes of that Realme as a speciall meane to haile vs al to the forsay de scope And all this must be contriued through thattonement of this tvvo lavvyers by a more spedy intrusion of Cesars Ciuil Roman lavves thovvgh they are by authentique authoritye longe agoe abolished by continuall silence vvorne out of vse buried vvith a free consent of the vvhole nation in manye ages 1. And amonge manye conclusions agreed vpon betvvene these tvvo one must be that vvhat soeuer the Ciuilien sayeth our teÌ„porall lavvyer must svvere subscribe to it be it true or false and he must up holde the CiuiliaÌ„ vvith yea or nay at all assayes that may serue to ouerthrovve the municipiall lavves of englande vvith out respect to the vveightye reasons sage considerations therof deriued from the lavves of God and nature as most agreable to the coÌ„ditioÌ„s and qualityes of that natioÌ„ 2. An other conclusion is that theis tvvo lavvyers thus prepared for opinions affectioÌ„s must set forvvard so as the CiuiliaÌ„ shall lead the vvaye the teÌ„poral lavvyer must folovv the Ciuilian shall goe before not as the angel Raphael vvent before younge Tobye to chase a vvaye murderinge diuels but to call in mischieues vpoÌ„ mischieues al maner of vvayes by contentiouse spirits not to demande due dets vpoÌ„ lavv fall spetialties but to make vndue dets bank roupte by playne rauin robbery not to procurre a mariage by order of lavve

hovvrely remouable from his ovvne opinion nor may examine the matter priuatli before or after he come to conferr therof or els their admission is not sufficient by this rule of theirs More ouer thes tvvo lavvyers and all those trauailinge conferers in this supposed assembly at Amsterdame are by this rules condemned beinge all priuat persones for entermedlige theÌ„ selfes vvith this matter of successioÌ„ touchinge the title of a kinge Fourthly the state of monarchie vvhiehe thies tvvo lavvyers do confesse acknovvledge to be of al other formes of gouernement most exceleÌ„t perfect in it selfe must needs be most contemptible vnperfect infamous of all other because the Ciuilian so esteemeth the tenure of a Crovvne to be most irreguler most extraordinarie for the Ciuilians opinion is the sentence of all thies conferrers to be irreagler and extraordinarye is to be vnder no rule nor order vvher vpon consequeÌ„tly the kinge holdeth his Crovvne by no rule nor order is of hiselse irregular not subiect to rule or order And if the comoÌ„ vvealth be theonely Iudge ouer the kinge to coÌ„ptrol him as thies men teache vs none is by theire Doctrine appointed nor allovved to comptroll the common vvealths senteÌ„ce theÌ„ it must needs folovv that the common vvealth in this case is also vnder no vvill nor order no meruail for a multitude vvithout a head or of manie heads none good vvhat is it but a chaos confused masse ovvt of al order Thus vve are taught that the vnrulie must rule the vnruly if an irregular disordered multitude must gouerne the most irregular exrraordinarie Crovvne as theis men terme it Nay by this doctrine an vsurper disseizer intruder impious tyrant or infidel once admitted by the coÌ„mon vvealth must not be deposed Again a possession onely must guide the right as the most materiall point to lead thin heritance succession of a Crovvne tvvo assertioÌ„sneuer allovved for good plees in any lavv spiritual or temporal Diuin or humain most vvorthie of ovvt claps vvith hisses vvhistles yet they must both be allovved maiÌ„teined vnder this generall maxime of admission And so all enormities must be streight rules vvronges must be rights violence must be lavv bad must be good good must be bad if thies be allovved admitted by a multitude dravven to gether any vvaye to represeÌ„t beare the name of a republick or comon stat vvhiche for cleanelye conueyhance of a fovvl thinge in a fayre hand kerchife thies men doe call a common vvealth a speciall fallacie to abuse the simple besides euerie lavvfull king is deposible for or vvithout cause if the common vvealth dislike him euery quarel is a sufficieÌ„t cause to depose a kinge if the coÌ„mon wealth so esteme it euery kinge shal be accompted a tyrant an hereticque an infidel or incapable othervvays vnfit consequeÌ„tly deposible because the publick state here called a coÌ„mon vvealth holdeth him so to be is theonlye Iudge of all causes in this case of a kings state of all coÌ„misions that must procede from a kinge for no other Iudge is appointed in thies mens text A plaine contradiction to their ovvn Doctrin an error that thies lavvers vvill not stand to if they be pressed to ansvvere by authoritie authentique More ouer it must folovv vpon thies mens Doctrin that euerye multitude so incorporated as they got the style tytle of a publick state in their ovvn consceit by pretence may rightly be called a common vvealth habled by lavv to inioye all the preuileges before mentioned though they vvant a head yea thovvgh no vvelth nor commoditie commoÌ„ or priuat be by them maintened And that euery publick stat or suche common vvealth as they haue allovved may at their pleasure alter chaunge innouat the caur se of inheritance succession to the Crovvn so as they may barre the right true title all redye cast vpon any persone by the lavves of the same state though the same persone be no member of the same state nor subiect ther vnto by nature submissioÌ„ or other lavvful meanes Consequently that the kiÌ„ge of spaine is bovvnde to setle his conscieÌ„ce not impugne the ordinance of the novv English common vvealth hovv iust so euer his title be for the present or future tyme nor to examine any others title allovved admitted by the same common vvealth if that negatiue pregnant foisted in to the margent touching priuat men can not be hable to coÌ„ptroll the text vvhich bindeth euery man vvithout exception or difference of priuat or publick And last of all it is sett dovvn in plaine termes that euery kinge holdeth his Crovvne by the good vvill of his common vvealth as by the onely lavvfull good tenur of a Crovvne A playne contradiction to the state of inheritance and an absurditie vvorthie to haue all manner of scorne moquerye neuer auuoched for any plea neuer mentioned in any booke rol or record or vvritting of vvise maÌ„ nor admited in to the thought or imagination of any lavve maker lavvyer or other meÌ„indued vvith common sence in Englande and an hiperbolical fictio against the state of Regall Ma. yet vve must beleaue it because the Ciuilian saith so vvho by al thies trauailinge opinions must be allvvayes allovved Thus vve see that by the CiuiliaÌ„s lavve his Ma. tenur vvherby he boldeth his Crovvne must be irregular extraordinarie though he be admitted by his comon vvealthe once setled in his state therfore not remouable yet that vvill not serue if he holdeth his Crovvne as tenant at vvil of the coÌ„mon vvealth vvho may reuoke their admissions vvheÌ„ thei vst to finde suche cause as they thinke sufficient consequently he hath no state of inheritaÌ„ce nor succession vvhat vvould the king Catholicke say to this thiÌ„ke yovv if he vvere vvel informed of this particular Nay vvhat they of holande and zelande vvil presume here on to thiÌ„ke say for hardeninge theire harts mainteyninge theire actual rebellions euery man seeth his Ma. can not be ignoraÌ„t Therfor it is not like that he vvas priuie to the contents of this book so farre as to allovv of it here his Ma. may behold the blinde presuÌ„ptioÌ„ of thies statists vvho dare thus confront his Ma. in the chiefest point of his Maiestical state vvith such indignities by abusinge all regall dignitie so lovv as to make it the vassal of eueri arrogant rovvt of any vnlavvfull assembled multitude that can by hook or crroke vvile or guyle flaterye or violence catche snatche the visard of a common vvealth for more credit to their excessiue speache also vse his Ma. as a bolster to leane vpoÌ„ vnder cloak of a liceÌ„ce to roue freely through his Ma. Dominions vvhere it ruleth and comaundeth Yea these bold aduenturers do rauÌ„ge so farre farther as by colour of his Ma. authoritie they dare attempt to stoppe the mouths and pennes of all

frame comon vvealths after their pleasures fancyes as thoughe they vvere the superious vpoÌ„ vvhome Pope all persones of vvhat qualitye so euer are to depeÌ„de froÌ„ vvhome al persons are to receaue take their directions for spirituall temporall affaires vvhich hovve great an absurditye it is for theÌ„ to thinke that all vvise meÌ„ do not see their rashe folishe dangerous courses vvherunto they

that vvould haue their Countrye kept from tyraÌ„ny spoile of ancient nobilitie lavves costumes priuiledges vvhich is that it semeth these masqued author and lavvyers most desiere And it semeth strauÌ„ge to vvise vertuous people that this author disguised lavvyers makinge shevv to be Catholickes to aduaunce gods cause folovv not the patterne example of his holiness predecessors vvho haue

dravve gaine suche princes to the right true religioÌ„ as be out of the sayd Churche specially not of malice but by Education And yet these phantasticall Aucthor lavvyers vvould haue all violente furious courses exercised against the sayd Kinge As depriuation of his ovvne realme and right to the Crovvne of EnglaÌ„de yfit laye in their povver Thoughe they see by dayly experience that both princes other particular persons of great qualitye that falle from theCatholicke Churche beinge once in it vvere accompted as desperat persones for euer returninge yet since haue reconsiled them selues vvith great repentance and haue done notable seruices by theire examples in procuring hasteninge others of principall ranck to be reconsiled as namely the most Christian kinge of fraunce hath
