james_n the_o 1st_n time_n in_o the_o case_n of_o watson_n and_o clerk_n who_o plea_n be_v that_o what_o they_o have_v act_v against_o king_n james_n be_v not_o treason_n because_o do_v before_o his_o

none_o out_o of_o that_o act_n but_o those_o who_o be_v the_o murderer_n of_o his_o royal_a father_n three_o as_o to_o edward_n the_o 4_o th_n case_n this_o may_v be_v look_v upon_o as_o particular_a in_o it_o that_o when_o richard_n duke_n of_o york_n his_o father_n have_v lay_v claim_n to_o the_o crown_n in_o henry_n the_o 6_o th_n time_n he_o and_o his_o son_n sign_v a_o agreement_n that_o

after_o his_o death_n edward_n the_o 4_o the_o his_o son_n be_v in_o right_a very_o just_a king_n of_o the_o realm_n yet_o he_o can_v not_o lay_v claim_n to_o the_o subject_n allegiance_n till_o

upon_o the_o actual_a possession_n of_o the_o crown_n therefore_o the_o parliament_n may_v well_o date_n his_o be_v seize_v of_o the_o right_n and_o prerogative_n of_o the_o crown_n from_o the_o day_n

if_o we_o look_v beyond_o the_o present_a time_n when_o the_o usurper_n be_v new_o get_v into_o possession_n do_v not_o so_o much_o contribute_v to_o the_o peace_n and_o security_n as_o it_o do_v in_o all_o human_a prospect_n to_o the_o disturbance_n and_o ruin_n of_o the_o nation_n for_o first_o it_o oblige_v the_o exile_a prince_n to_o endeavour_v to_o obtain_v foreign_a assistance_n for_o the_o

second_o it_o give_v all_o encouragement_n to_o ambitious_a spirit_n to_o attempt_v upon_o the_o crown_n when_o they_o find_v it_o by_o such_o a_o statute_n as_o this_o make_v as_o it_o be_v the_o

subject_n be_v as_o much_o oblige_v to_o stand_v by_o he_o three_o it_o do_v not_o only_o keep_v out_o the_o lawful_a king_n but_o also_o preclude_v his_o heir_n too_o from_o the_o succession_n for_o there_o be_v no_o usurper_n but_o after_o he_o have_v settle_v himself_o in_o the_o throne_n make_v it_o his_o next_o business_n to_o entail_v the_o crown_n upon_o his_o line_n and_o to_o leave_v

contribute_v to_o the_o peace_n of_o a_o nation_n which_o both_o encourage_v any_o usurper_n to_o seize_v upon_o the_o crown_n and_o enable_v he_o both_o to_o maintain_v himself_o in_o possession_n and_o to_o set_v up_o his_o posterity_n after_o he_o and_o so_o to_o lay_v the_o foundation_n of_o a_o certain_a war_n upon_o the_o nation_n as_o often_o as_o either_o the_o heir_n of_o the_o family_n of_o the_o lawful_a prince_n be_v able_a to_o make_v a_o descent_n here_o with_o sufficient_a force_n and_o to_o gain_v a_o party_n here_o to_o join_v they_o or_o his_o own_o family_n if_o they_o be_v
