agree_v there_o be_v one_o and_o no_o more_o than_o one_o to_o who_o a_o right_n do_v belong_v of_o succeed_v upon_o failure_n of_o king_n james_n have_v he_o no_o heir_n know_v mr._n sergeant_n m_o d._n i_o say_v no_o man_n can_v be_v his_o heir_n while_o he_o live_v if_o he_o have_v any_o it_o be_v in_o nubes_fw-la our_o law_n know_v none_o and_o what_o shall_v we_o do_v till_o he_o be_v dead_a it_o can_v descend_v till_o then_o e._n of_o p_o e._n you_o agree_v that_o notwithstanding_o king_n charles_n the_o second_o be_v abroad_o at_o his_o father_n death_n and_o do_v not_o actual_o exercise_v the_o government_n yet_o in_o law_n immediate_o upon_o his_o father_n decease_n he_o be_v not_o the_o less_o heir_n for_o that_o nor_o be_v the_o throne_n vacant_a mr._n sergeant_n m_o d._n that_o be_v not_o like_o this_o case_n neither_o because_o the_o descent_n be_v legal_o immediate_a but_o here_o can_v be_v no_o such_o thing_n during_o king_n james_n life_n as_o a_o hereditary_a descent_n so_o that_o either_o here_o must_v be_v a_o everlasting_a war_n entail_v upon_o we_o his_o title_n continue_v and_o we_o oppose_v his_o return_n to_o the_o exercise_n of_o the_o government_n or_o we_o have_v no_o government_n for_o want_v of_o a_o legal_a descent_n and_o succession_n pray_v my_o lord_n consider_v the_o condition_n of_o the_o nation_n till_o there_o be_v a_o government_n no_o law_n can_v be_v execute_v no_o debt_n can_v be_v compel_v to_o be_v pay_v no_o offence_n can_v be_v punish_v no_o one_o can_v tell_v what_o to_o do_v to_o obtain_v his_o right_n or_o defend_v himself_o from_o wrong_n you_o still_o say_v the_o throne_n be_v not_o void_a and_o yet_o you_o will_v not_o tell_v we_o who_o fill_v it_o if_o once_o you_o will_v agree_v that_o the_o throne_n be_v vacant_a it_o will_v then_o come_v orderly_o in_o debate_n how_o it_o shall_v according_a to_o our_o law_n be_v fill_v e._n of_o n_n m._n the_o objection_n as_o i_o take_v it_o that_o be_v make_v to_o these_o reason_n the_o lord_n have_v send_v for_o their_o insist_v upon_o the_o amendment_n be_v that_o we_o have_v not_o full_o answer_v in_o they_o the_o reason_n give_v by_o the_o commons_o for_o their_o not_o agree_v to_o those_o amendment_n mr._n s_o l._n my_o lord_n we_o say_v you_o have_v not_o full_o answer_v the_o first_o of_o our_o reason_n e._n of_o n_n m._n gentleman_n i_o intend_v to_o state_n the_o objection_n so_o that_o first_o reason_n of_o you_o i_o take_v to_o be_v this_o in_o effect_n that_o our_o word_n deserted_n be_v apply_v to_o the_o government_n imply_v our_o agree_v that_o the_o king_n have_v deserted_n the_o throne_n those_o two_o be_v in_o true_a construction_n the_o same_o and_o then_o by_o our_o own_o confession_n the_o throne_n be_v vacant_a as_o to_o he_o to_o this_o you_o say_v my_o lord_n have_v give_v no_o answer_n true_o i_o think_v it_o be_v a_o clear_a answer_n that_o the_o word_n deserted_n may_v have_v another_o sense_n and_o do_v not_o necessary_o imply_v renounce_v entire_o of_o a_o right_n but_o a_o cease_n of_o the_o exercise_n but_o then_o if_o that_o do_v not_o vacant_a the_o throne_n as_o to_o he_o the_o other_o reason_n come_v to_o be_v consider_v how_o come_v you_o to_o desire_v the_o prince_n of_o orange_n to_o take_v the_o administration_n upon_o he_o and_o to_o take_v care_n of_o ireland_n till_o the_o convention_n and_o to_o write_v his_o letter_n circulary_a for_o this_o meeting_n and_o to_o renew_v your_o address_n to_o the_o prince_n and_o to_o appoint_v a_o day_n of_o public_a thanksgiving_n in_o answer_n to_o that_o my_o lord_n say_v that_o though_o the_o king_n be_v desert_v the_o government_n as_o they_o agree_v he_o have_v do_v do_v imply_v the_o throne_n to_o be_v vacant_a yet_o they_o may_v just_o do_v all_o those_o act_n mention_v in_o the_o commons_o reason_n because_o if_o bare_o the_o exercise_n of_o the_o government_n be_v desert_v there_o must_v be_v a_o supply_n of_o that_o exercise_n in_o some_o person_n be_v take_v the_o administration_n and_o as_o none_o so_o fit_a because_o of_o the_o prince_n relation_n to_o the_o crown_n and_o his_o presence_n here_o to_o address_v unto_o about_o it_o so_o none_o so_o proper_a to_o make_v that_o address_n as_o the_o lord_n for_o in_o the_o absence_n of_o the_o king_n they_o be_v the_o king_n and_o kingdom_n great_a council_n and_o may_v have_v do_v it_o by_o themselves_o without_o the_o commons_o but_o be_v meet_v in_o a_o full_a representative_a body_n they_o join_v with_o they_o mr._n p_o n_z indeed_o have_v say_v there_o be_v no_o distinction_n in_o law_n between_o the_o kingship_n and_o the_o exercise_n of_o it_o and_o that_o it_o be_v the_o same_o crime_n in_o consideration_n of_o law_n to_o take_v away_o the_o exercise_n as_o to_o take_v away_o the_o kingship_n i_o shall_v not_o dispute_v with_o that_o learned_a gentleman_n who_o i_o very_o much_o honour_n for_o his_o knowledge_n in_o the_o profession_n of_o the_o law_n what_o offence_n either_o of_o they_o will_v be_v now_o for_o we_o be_v not_o discourse_v concern_v a_o regency_n how_o the_o government_n shall_v be_v administer_v but_o we_o be_v bare_o upon_o the_o question_n whether_o the_o throne_n be_v vacant_a so_o that_o we_o may_v have_v another_o king_n but_o if_o we_o shall_v grant_v a_o vacancy_n as_o to_o the_o king_n himself_o we_o be_v then_o tell_v the_o next_o in_o succession_n can_v take_v because_o no_o one_o can_v be_v heir_n to_o one_o that_o be_v alive_a yet_o i_o think_v the_o answer_v give_v by_o my_o lord_n before_o be_v a_o very_a good_a one_o that_o though_o the_o king_n be_v not_o dead_a naturally_n yet_o if_o as_o they_o infer_v he_o be_v so_o civil_n the_o next_o of_o course_n ought_v to_o come_v in_o as_o by_o hereditary_a succession_n for_o i_o know_v not_o any_o distinction_n between_o successor_n in_o the_o case_n of_o a_o natural_a death_n and_o those_o in_o the_o case_n of_o a_o civil_a one_o for_o i_o will_v know_v if_o the_o next_o heir_n shall_v be_v set_v aside_o in_o this_o case_n and_o you_o put_v in_o another_o whether_o that_o king_n shall_v be_v king_n of_o england_n to_o he_o and_o his_o heir_n and_o so_o be_v once_o upon_o the_o throne_n the_o ancient_a lineal_a succession_n be_v alter_v if_o that_o be_v so_o then_o indeed_o it_o be_v sufficient_o a_o elective_a kingdom_n by_o take_v it_o from_o the_o right_a heir_n if_o it_o be_v not_o so_o than_o i_o will_v ask_v whether_o such_o king_n as_o shall_v be_v put_v in_o shall_v be_v king_n only_o during_o king_n james_n life_n that_o i_o suppose_v for_o many_o reason_n be_v not_o their_o meaning_n but_o at_o least_o he_o must_v be_v make_v king_n during_o his_o own_o life_n and_o than_o if_o there_o be_v a_o distinction_n make_v as_o to_o the_o succession_n between_o a_o natural_a and_o a_o civil_a death_n if_o king_n james_n shall_v die_v during_o the_o life_n of_o the_o new_a king_n what_o will_v become_v of_o the_o hereditary_a monarchy_n where_o must_v the_o succession_n come_v in_o when_o the_o next_o heir_n to_o king_n james_n may_v not_o be_v next_o heir_n to_o the_o present_a successor_n therefore_o we_o must_v reduce_v all_o to_o this_o point_n which_o my_o lord_n have_v hint_v at_o in_o their_o reason_n whether_o this_o will_v not_o make_v the_o kingdom_n elective_a for_o if_o you_o do_v once_o make_v it_o elective_a i_o do_v not_o say_v that_o you_o be_v always_o bind_v to_o go_v to_o election_n but_o it_o be_v enough_o to_o make_v it_o so_o if_o by_o that_o precedent_n there_o be_v a_o breach_n in_o the_o hereditary_a succession_n for_o i_o will_v be_v bold_a to_o say_v you_o can_v make_v a_o strong_a tie_n to_o observe_v that_o kind_n of_o succession_n than_o what_o lie_v upon_o you_o to_o preserve_v it_o in_o this_o case_n if_o you_o be_v under_o a_o obligation_n to_o it_o it_o be_v part_n of_o the_o constitution_n i_o desire_v any_o one_o to_o tell_v i_o what_o strong_a obligation_n there_o can_v be_v and_o that_o i_o say_v be_v reason_n enough_o for_o my_o lord_n to_o disagree_v to_o it_o it_o bring_v in_o the_o danger_n of_o a_o breach_n upon_o the_o constitution_n next_o gentleman_n i_o will_v know_v of_o you_o if_o the_o throne_n be_v vacant_a whether_o we_o be_v oblige_v to_o fill_v it_o if_o we_o be_v we_o must_v fill_v it_o either_o by_o our_o old_a law_n or_o by_o the_o humour_n of_o those_o that_o be_v to_o choose_v if_o we_o fill_v it_o by_o our_o own_o old_a law_n they_o declare_v that_o it_o be_v a_o hereditary_a kingdom_n and_o we_o be_v to_o take_v the_o next_o to_o who_o the_o succession_n will_v belong_v and_o then_o there_o will_v be_v no_o
