be_v understand_v the_o king_n in_o possession_n though_o he_o be_v king_n de_fw-fr facta_fw-la and_o not_o the_o jure_fw-la and_o not_o the_o king_n out_o of_o possession_n though_o he_o be_v the_o king_n de_fw-fr jure_fw-la the_o act_n declare_v treason_n in_o that_o statute_n be_v to_o compass_v the_o death_n of_o the_o king_n queen_n or_o prince_n to_o ravish_v the_o queen_n or_o the_o king_n be_v elder_a daughter_n or_o the_o prince_n wife_n to_o levy_v war_n against_o the_o king_n or_o to_o be_v adherent_a to_o his_o enemy_n give_v they_o aid_n or_o comfort_n to_o counterfeit_n the_o great_a or_o the_o privy_a seal_n or_o the_o king_n coin_n to_o kill_v the_o chancellor_n treasurer_n judge_n etc._n etc._n in_o the_o execution_n of_o their_o office_n the_o sense_n therefore_o of_o my_o lord_n coke_n assertion_n be_v that_o these_o act_n be_v treason_n when_o they_o be_v commit_v against_o a_o king_n in_o possession_n whether_o he_o be_v king_n de_fw-fr jure_fw-la or_o no_o and_o not_o treason_n when_o they_o be_v commit_v against_o a_o king_n out_o of_o possession_n though_o he_o be_v king_n de_fw-fr jure_fw-la before_o i_o examine_v the_o ground_n of_o his_o assertion_n i_o shall_v first_o state_n the_o point_n of_o controversy_n the_o question_n therefore_o be_v not_o whether_o some_o of_o these_o act_n may_v not_o be_v punish_v as_o treason_n under_o a_o usurper_n if_o they_o be_v commit_v against_o the_o necessary_a order_n of_o government_n and_o not_o do_v for_o the_o restore_n of_o the_o king_n de_fw-fr jure_fw-la to_o his_o crown_n or_o promote_a his_o inrest_n for_o the_o subject_n be_v oblige_v to_o pay_v a_o submission_n and_o obedience_n to_o the_o usurper_n as_o to_o all_o act_n of_o government_n that_o be_v not_o destructive_a of_o the_o king_n de_fw-fr jure_n right_n and_o interest_n and_o therefore_o if_o herein_o they_o oppose_v or_o disturb_v the_o government_n they_o may_v by_o the_o law_n be_v adjudge_v traitor_n and_o punish_v as_o such_o thus_o therefore_o it_o may_v be_v treason_n under_o a_o usurper_n first_o to_o counterfeit_n or_o clip_v his_o coin_n or_o to_o counterfeit_n his_o broad_a seal_n or_o privy_a seal_n or_o to_o kill_v a_o judge_n sit_v upon_o the_o bench_n some_o these_o offence_n touch_v not_o the_o person_n or_o interest_n of_o the_o usurper_n but_o the_o order_n of_o government_n and_o as_o it_o be_v just_a that_o the_o order_n of_o government_n shall_v proceed_v under_o a_o usurper_n so_o it_o be_v just_a that_o these_o act_n against_o the_o government_n shall_v be_v punish_v as_o well_o as_o robbery_n murder_n and_o the_o like_a as_o offence_n not_o against_o the_o usurper_n but_o the_o lawful_a king_n second_o to_o levy_v war_n against_o he_o or_o to_o be_v adherent_a to_o his_o enemy_n or_o to_o compass_v his_o death_n out_o of_o a_o private_a seditious_a principle_n and_o not_o out_o of_o any_o regard_n to_o the_o right_n and_o interest_n of_o the_o lawful_a king_n as_o suppose_v any_o man_n shall_v practise_v with_o a_o foreign_a prince_n to_o invade_v the_o nation_n not_o in_o the_o lawful_a king_n behalf_n or_o shall_v betray_v any_o fort_n or_o castle_n or_o any_o part_n of_o the_o country_n to_o he_o or_o the_o like_a for_o these_o also_o be_v offence_n not_o so_o much_o against_o the_o person_n and_o interest_n of_o the_o usurper_n as_o against_o the_o course_n of_o the_o government_n and_o strike_v through_o the_o person_n of_o the_o usurper_n at_o the_o person_n and_o authority_n of_o the_o lawful_a king_n and_o in_o that_o regard_n may_v be_v just_o look_v upon_o and_o punish_v as_o treason_n so_o the_o swear_v false_o though_o by_o a_o idol_n may_v be_v look_v upon_o and_o punish_v as_o perjury_n because_o it_o terminate_v upon_o the_o majesty_n of_o the_o true_a god_n but_o all_o this_o may_v be_v grant_v and_o yet_o it_o do_v not_o follow_v that_o the_o allegiance_n of_o the_o subject_n ought_v or_o may_v be_v pay_v to_o the_o king_n in_o possession_n if_o he_o be_v a_o usurper_n for_o still_o their_o submission_n and_o obedience_n to_o he_o be_v limit_v with_o a_o reserve_n to_o the_o right_n and_o interest_n of_o the_o lawful_a king_n the_o question_n therefore_o must_v be_v whether_o it_o be_v treason_n to_o act_v against_o the_o usurper_n in_o possession_n for_o the_o right_n and_o interest_n of_o the_o king_n de_fw-fr jure_fw-la out_o of_o possession_n to_o be_v adherent_a to_o the_o king_n de_fw-fr jure_fw-la to_o give_v he_o and_o his_o party_n aid_n and_o comfort_n and_o to_o levy_v war_n against_o the_o usurper_n for_o the_o restore_n of_o the_o king_n de_fw-fr jure_fw-la to_o his_o crown_n and_o whether_o it_o be_v not_o treason_n to_o be_v adherent_a to_o the_o usurper_n and_o to_o fight_v for_o he_o against_o the_o king_n de_fw-fr jure_fw-la out_o of_o possession_n this_o therefore_o must_v be_v that_o which_o my_o lord_n coke_n lay_v down_o for_o law_n where_o he_o assert_v that_o treason_n lie_v only_o against_o the_o king_n in_o possession_n i_o shall_v proceed_v therefore_o to_o consider_v the_o ground_n of_o his_o assertion_n it_o be_v indeed_o true_a in_o fact_n that_o the_o act_n declare_v to_o be_v treason_n in_o the_o statute_n 25_o edw._n 3._o will_v be_v adjuge_v and_o punish_v as_o treason_n under_o every_o king_n in_o possession_n whether_o he_o be_v king_n de_fw-fr jure_fw-la or_o no_o for_o though_o he_o be_v a_o usurper_n yet_o while_o he_o be_v in_o the_o throne_n the_o law_n court_n of_o judicature_n and_o every_o thing_n else_o be_v make_v to_o favour_v his_o side_n as_o much_o as_o if_o he_o be_v the_o most_o lawful_a and_o rightful_a king_n his_o party_n be_v hold_v to_o be_v the_o loyal_a subject_n in_o the_o eye_n of_o the_o law_n and_o the_o adverse_a party_n rebel_n and_o traitor_n so_o the_o law_n may_v be_v fit_o compare_v to_o the_o bank_n cast_v up_o against_o the_o sea_n which_o be_v make_v to_o keep_v out_o a_o inundation_n but_o when_o once_o the_o water_n be_v get_v over_o they_o they_o keep_v it_o in_o in_o like_a manner_n the_o law_n be_v make_v to_o prevent_v a_o usurpation_n but_o when_o once_o a_o usurper_n be_v get_v into_o the_o throne_n than_o they_o be_v make_v to_o become_v a_o fence_n to_o he_o to_o keep_v in_o possession_n of_o it_o now_o there_o be_v hardly_o any_o monarchy_n wherein_o there_o have_v be_v more_o usurpation_n than_o there_o have_v be_v in_o we_o and_o it_o ought_v not_o to_o be_v strange_a if_o in_o all_o these_o the_o usurper_n take_v upon_o they_o to_o act_v as_o lawful_a king_n and_o obedience_n be_v pay_v to_o they_o as_o such_o by_o the_o major_a part_n of_o the_o nation_n at_o least_o while_o they_o continue_v in_o the_o throne_n and_o those_o that_o stand_v by_o they_o against_o the_o king_n de_fw-fr jure_v who_o right_n they_o have_v usurp_v be_v look_v upon_o as_o faithful_a and_o loyal_a subject_n and_o reward_v according_o and_o those_o that_o rise_v up_o against_o they_o in_o behalf_n of_o their_o rightful_a king_n be_v declare_v traitor_n and_o rebel_n and_o punish_v as_o such_o and_o so_o the_o whole_a course_n of_o the_o government_n run_v on_o their_o side_n they_o call_v parliament_n and_o then_o the_o law_n be_v make_v in_o favour_n of_o their_o title_n they_o make_v the_o judge_n and_o no_o wonder_n then_o if_o all_o the_o law_n as_o well_o as_o the_o sat._n 25._o edw._n 3._o be_v interpret_v in_o their_o favour_n and_o treason_n lie_v in_o their_o own_o court_n against_o they_o only_o but_o it_o be_v be_v always_o thus_o in_o fact_n be_v no_o just_a ground_n for_o any_o man_n to_o declare_v it_o to_o be_v so_o in_o point_n of_o right_n and_o to_o give_v it_o for_o law_n that_o treason_n be_v only_o against_o the_o king_n in_o possession_n whether_o he_o be_v the_o king_n de_fw-fr jure_fw-la or_o a_o usurper_n we_o may_v therefore_o take_v leave_n to_o examine_v whether_o there_o be_v any_o better_a ground_n for_o this_o assertion_n it_o will_v seem_v a_o very_a odd_a question_n for_o any_o to_o ask_v touch_v the_o law_n which_o be_v make_v in_o any_o settle_a monarchy_n for_o the_o desence_n of_o the_o king_n person_n crown_n and_o dignity_n who_o be_v mean_v by_o the_o king_n in_o those_o law_n the_o lawful_a and_o rightful_a king_n of_o that_o realm_n or_o any_o one_o that_o get_v into_o the_o possession_n of_o the_o throne_n though_o he_o be_v not_o the_o rightful_a king_n but_o a_o usurper_n common_a sense_n will_v hardly_o allow_v such_o a_o question_n to_o be_v put_v for_o the_o king_n de_fw-fr jure_fw-la and_o not_o a_o usurper_n be_v true_o and_o proper_o king_n and_o therefore_o if_o the_o word_n of_o a_o law_n be_v to_o be_v understand_v in_o their_o natural_a
