parliament_n without_o which_o he_o have_v no_o more_o right_o to_o they_o than_o the_o prince_n of_o wales_n now_o have_v in_o the_o mean_a time_n the_o pulpit_n be_v the_o ensurer_n of_o the_o

it_o be_v no_o more_o than_o common_a honesty_n to_o stand_v to_o one_o own_o act_n and_o deed_n but_o in_o the_o way_n of_o the_o passive_a doctrine_n to_o prostitute_v the_o life_n liberty_n and_o

of_o city_n and_o society_n and_o therefore_o this_o of_o a_o indiffeasable_a allegiance_n must_v be_v reckon_v among_o these_o since_o the_o fatal_a consequence_n that_o must_v attend_v upon_o it_o be_v evident_a and_o this_o be_v the_o opinion_n in_o which_o all_o who_o have_v consider_v this_o matter_n either_o as_o lawyer_n or_o casuist_n do_v agree_v this_o be_v shift_v the_o scene_n for_o

of_o the_o flanderkin_n town_n he_o need_v not_o urge_v we_o with_o their_o practice_n and_o example_n and_o he_o be_v whole_o out_o of_o the_o way_n in_o every_o word_n he_o utter_v for_o we_o be_v

will_v be_v if_o i_o be_v hire_v to_o write_v against_o the_o oath_n of_o allegiance_n i_o will_v use_v such_o argument_n as_o this_o be_v be_v we_o in_o the_o case_n of_o those_o that_o be_v slave_n

no_o body_n to_o match_v we_o with_o but_o a_o conquer_a people_n what_o then_o be_v become_v of_o our_o thanksgiving_n deliverance_n which_o god_n and_o man_n have_v be_v tell_v of_o if_o after_o all_o we_o be_v to_o be_v in_o the_o condition_n of_o a_o conquer_a people_n it_o be_v a_o deliverance_n stair_n and_o our_o last_o state_n be_v worse_a than_o the_o first_o for_o we_o be_v not_o

therefore_o i_o be_o sure_a neither_o king_n nor_o parliament_n have_v reason_n to_o thank_v he_o for_o the_o choice_n of_o this_o argument_n when_o all_o be_v do_v as_o i_o say_v be●ore_o all_o

therefore_o if_o he_o have_v offer_v we_o the_o ten_o part_n of_o a_o argument_n fetch_v out_o of_o the_o bowel_n of_o our_o own_o law_n we_o will_v have_v harken_v to_o he_o but_o as_o for_o his_o

then_o in_o what_o a_o miserable_a condition_n must_v they_o be_v when_o they_o fall_v under_o the_o power_n of_o their_o enemy_n that_o never_o think_v himself_o secure_a of_o they_o but_o treat_v they_o still_o as_o enemy_n till_o they_o swear_v allegiance_n to_o he_o now_o i_o can_v tell_v he_o that_o allegiance_n be_v so_o obstinate_a a_o thing_n that_o neither_o desertion_n nor_o conquest_n

for_o we_o be_v by_o the_o constitution_n swear_v brethren_n conjurati_fw-la fratres_n ad_fw-la defensionem_fw-la regis_fw-la &_o regni_fw-la and_o he_o have_v bring_v thing_n to_o that_o pass_n

that_o if_o a_o parliament_n can_v make_v and_o depose_v a_o king_n and_o make_v richard_n rich_a king_n much_o more_o they_o may_v foreclose_v the_o duke_n of_o york_n who_o be_v no_o king_n and_o
