kingly_a government_n in_o england_n be_v regulate_v and_o not_o absolute_a we_o make_v the_o point_n good_a from_o these_o reason_n first_o because_o according_a to_o these_o law_n the_o king_n of_o england_n be_v not_o hereditary_a and_o therefore_o we_o read_v not_o that_o ever_o edward_n do_v tie_v the_o crown_n of_o england_n to_o royal_a succession_n i_o confess_v it_o be_v allege_v that_o

this_o be_v not_o only_o improbable_a in_o it-self_n but_o also_o it_o be_v so_o judge_v and_o why_o shall_v we_o think_v otherways_o of_o it_o see_v the_o conqueror_n come_v not_o to_o the_o crown_n of_o england_n by_o blood-right_a but_o by_o mere_a conquest_n have_v the_o whole_a kingdom_n of_o england_n against_o he_o and_o polydore_n say_v hinc_fw-la colligere_fw-la licet_fw-la vel_fw-la

therefore_o to_o i_o it_o be_v more_o than_o apparent_a that_o the_o confessor_n do_v not_o in_o his_o testament_n assign_v the_o conqueror_n to_o the_o crown_n albeit_o salmasius_n allege_v the_o

be_v learn_v from_o polydore_n edward_n be_v not_o displease_v himself_o but_o very_o well_o satisfy_v that_o harald_n shall_v succeed_v to_o he_o whereupon_o we_o fear_v not_o to_o say_v that_o not_o only_o the_o power_n of_o enki●ging_v be_v in_o the_o people_n hand_n but_o also_o that_o the_o confessor_n do_v not_o promise_v the_o kingdom_n to_o the_o conqueror_n after_o he_o although_o the_o

as_o his_o heir_n no_o very_o for_o they_o adore_v he_o as_o their_o lawgiver_n it_o be_v know_v that_o rufus_n be_v but_o three_o son_n to_o the_o conqueror_n and_o yet_o he_o be_v create_v king_n him_n the_o people_n prefer_v before_o robert_n his_o elder_a brother_n what_o will_v they_o have_v do_v so_o if_o blood-right_a by_o the_o law_n of_o the_o kingdom_n have_v be_v the_o title_n to_o the_o crown_n no_o very_o it_o be_v remarkable_a that_o rufus_n be_v ordain_v king_n and_o it_o be_v not_o so_o much_o as_o object_v that_o robert_n be_v elder_a than_o he_o he_o be_v but_o the_o three_o son_n to_o the_o conqueror_n and_o robert_n be_v the_o elder_a yea_o rufus_n die_v without_o child_n they_o appoint_v henry_n the_o conqueror_n four_o son_n king_n as_o yet_o passing-by_a robert_n the_o elder_a and_o which_o be_v more_o though_o henry_n 1_o have_v leave_v in_o his_o testament_n his_o daughter_n mathildis_n together_o with_o her_o son_n as_o heir_n of_o the_o kingdom_n yet_o notwithstanding_o the_o people_n create_v steven_n nephew_n to_o henry_n 1_o by_o the_o authority_n of_o parliament_n it_o be_v ordain_v that_o steven_n so_o long_o as_o he_o live_v shall_v enjoy_v the_o kingdom_n of_o england_n and_o that_o henry_n 2._o son_n to_o mathildis_n daughter_n to_o henry_n 1_o shall_v succeed_v to_o steven_n in_o the_o kingdom_n of_o england_n passing-by_a any_o that_o be_v beget_v by_o steven_n likeways_o the_o people_n create_v john_n king_n although_o k._n richard_n die_v without_o heir_n have_v leave_v arthure_n son_n to_o gaufredus_n who_o be_v elder_a than_o john_n heir_n to_o the_o crown_n i_o may_v speak_v more_o for_o clear_v this_o purpose_n but_o i_o forbear_v judge_v this_o sufficient_a whence_o it_o be_v more_o than_o evident_a that_o the_o crown_n of_o england_n since_o the_o day_n of_o edward_n the_o confessor_n by_o no_o law_n of_o the_o kingdom_n be_v hereditary_a i_o confess_v since_o that_o time_n now_o and_o then_o the_o king_n elder_a son_n do_v succeed_v and_o be_v hold_v as_o he●r_v of_o the_o kingdom_n but_o this_o be_v only_o by_o custom_n through_o favour_n of_o the_o race_n in_o which_o according_a to_o the_o manner_n of_o nation_n which_o i_o must_v needs_o call_v a_o abuse_n very_o ordinary_o the_o first-born_a be_v prefer_v as_o the_o only_a lawful_a heir_n of_o the_o crown_n therefore_o see_v the_o crown_n of_o england_n since_o that_o time_n have_v not_o be_v at_o least_o precise_o hereditary_a to_o i_o it_o seem_v very_o probable_a that_o for_o that_o time_n it_o have_v not_o be_v absolute_a and_o arbitrary_a for_o so_o the_o original_n and_o fountain-power_n of_o enk_v be_v in_o the_o people_n hand_n and_o consequent_o in_o this_o respect_n the_o people_n be_v simple_o above_o the_o king_n as_o the_o cause_n be_v simple_o above_o its_o effect_n philosopher_n say_v that_o causa_fw-la est_fw-la nobilior_fw-la svo_fw-la effectu_fw-la and_o so_o see_v the_o king_n of_o
