A47734 An answer to a book, intituled, The state of the Protestants in Ireland under the late King James government in which, their carriage towards him is justified, and the absolute necessity of their endeavouring to be free'd from his government, and of submitting to their present Majesties, is demonstrated.

their_o free_a consent_n they_o will_v do_v what_o they_o promise_v without_o swear_v and_o if_o they_o do_v not_o all_o the_o oath_n in_o the_o world_n will_v not_o make_v they_o do_v augustus_n for_o this_o expect_v no_o allegiance_n from_o his_o subject_n or_o be_v not_o the_o eastern_a monarch_n pretty_a absolute_a because_o the_o law_n in_o those_o nation_n do_v not_o require_v oath_n

their_o leet_n and_o this_o be_v the_o reason_n they_o give_v for_o impose_v the_o new_a oath_n in_o ireland_n to_o king_n william_n and_o queen_n mary_n before_o there_o be_v a_o act_n of_o

that_o be_v that_o upon_o our_o author_n scheme_n of_o dissolve_v oath_n and_o government_n for_o such_o reason_n as_o he_o think_v fit_a he_o have_v not_o tell_v we_o who_o shall_v be_v judge_n of_o

must_v be_v oblige_v to_o a_o blind_a and_o absolute_a submission_n without_o employ_v their_o understanding_n in_o the_o case_n thus_o our_o author_n like_o a_o mighty_a man_n yet_o this_o sophism_n be_v as_o poor_a a_o one_o as_o the_o last_o about_o the_o oath_n for_o in_o the_o case_n we_o be_v upon_o of_o determine_v a_o cause_n betwixt_o the_o government_n and_o the_o subject_n when_o we_o

which_o be_v the_o case_n we_o be_v upon_o the_o question_n who_o shall_v be_v judge_n be_v who_o have_v authority_n to_o determine_v the_o cause_n betwixt_o they_o as_o a_o judge_n do_v between_o

leave_v to_o employ_v his_o understanding_n in_o the_o case_n because_o he_o have_v not_o power_n authoritative_o to_o determine_v the_o case_n so_o as_o to_o oblige_v and_o tie_v up_o the_o contend_a party_n be_v what_o this_o author_n will_v sly_o pass_v upon_o you_o undiscovered_a but_o it_o be_v too_o plain_a to_o bear_v a_o argument_n well_o then_o the_o question_n be_v concern_v a_o

of_o a_o king_n be_v design_v to_o destroy_v his_o whole_a people_n that_o he_o thereby_o demit_v the_o government_n of_o they_o because_o as_o he_o right_o infer_v a_o will_n to_o govern_v and_o to_o

which_o our_o author_n think_v do_v he_o so_o great_a service_n but_o in_o truth_n the_o case_n abovementioned_a ought_v not_o at_o all_o to_o be_v suppose_v or_o take_v into_o consideration_n for_o
