the_o conclusion_n than_o be_v this_o not_o to_o believe_v he_o be_v to_o censure_v he_o and_o to_o censure_v he_o be_v to_o do_v evil_a against_o he_o and_o every_o evil_a thing_n do_v against_o he_o be_v against_o our_o loyalty_n now_o this_o consure_v must_v be_v so_o much_o the_o worse_o in_o as_o much_o as_o while_o man_n follow_v the_o consequence_n of_o their_o own_o reason_n they_o can_v see_v no_o ground_n to_o believe_v that_o the_o protestant_a religion_n can_v receive_v any_o prejudice_n by_o any_o thing_n that_o can_v arise_v by_o the_o declaration_n without_o offer_v a_o kind_n of_o violence_n to_o their_o own_o reason_n there_o be_v some_o person_n who_o have_v give_v very_o great_a reason_n against_o the_o likelihood_n of_o the_o catholic_n religion_n overthrow_v or_o

seem_v of_o very_o great_a force_n in_o give_v protestant_n a_o full_a assurance_n as_o to_o this_o case_n the_o first_o be_v in_o that_o the_o declaration_n indulge_v those_o of_o the_o protestant_a religion_n which_o be_v at_o the_o remote_a distance_n from_o his_o majesty_n own_o way_n for_o so_o i_o must_v repute_v the_o protestant_a dissenter_n in_o england_n to_o be_v as_o use_v no_o kind_n of_o liturgy_n or_o ceremony_n in_o their_o worship_n nor_o so_o much_o as_o acknowledge_v the_o office_n of_o a_o protestant_a diocessan_n bishop_n which_o be_v indeed_o the_o great_a protestancy_n of_o christendom_n whereas_o the_o church_n of_o england_n rigid_o impose_v the_o one_o and_o still_o maintain_v the_o other_o together_o with_o their_o symbolise_n in_o both_o these_o respect_n with_o the_o r._n catholic_n church_n and_o worship_n yea_o and_o in_o many_o doctrine_n too_o of_o late_a which_o the_o first_o reformation_n oppose_v have_v be_v think_v to_o have_v be_v so_o near_o they_o as_o the_o effect_n of_o a_o union_n to_o the_o extirpation_n of_o the_o dissenter_n be_v the_o only_a thing_n fear_v and_o this_o not_o without_o ground_n while_o those_o dissenter_n see_v the_o church_n of_o england_n upon_o the_o death_n of_o his_o late_a majesty_n to_o renew_v their_o prosecution_n somewhat_o sharp_a than_o before_o but_o these_o fear_n be_v now_o abundant_o remove_v which_o true_o i_o must_v say_v can_v hardly_o have_v be_v do_v by_o any_o other_o mean_n than_o that_o which_o his_o majesty_n have_v take_v by_o his_o declaration_n which_o must_v be_v to_o all_o man_n of_o understand_v a_o evidence_n on_o his_o behalf_n that_o he_o can_v have_v no_o design_n against_o the_o protestant_a interest_n nevertheless_o the_o church_n of_o england_n judge_v otherwise_o 2._o the_o admission_n of_o the_o french_a protestant_n in_o such_o multitude_n as_o be_v come_v over_o hither_o do_v also_o confirm_v i_o in_o the_o same_o belief_n they_o be_v a_o kind_n of_o presbiterian_o who_o because_o they_o will_v not_o become_v papist_n be_v flee_v hither_o where_o they_o have_v not_o only_o the_o exercise_n of_o their_o religion_n but_o also_o very_o large_a relief_n raise_v for_o their_o necessity_n and_o that_o too_o by_o his_o majesty_n own_o order_n what_o great_a testimony_n than_o these_o can_v be_v give_v of_o his_o readiness_n to_o support_v protestanisme_n and_o that_o he_o act_v in_o the_o high_a degree_n of_o sincerity_n to_o that_o principle_n upon_o which_o he_o ground_n his_o declaration_n viz._n that_o conscience_n be_v not_o to_o be_v force_v from_o which_o we_o that_o be_v protestant_n can_v but_o repute_v ourselves_o exceed_v safe_a and_o may_v conclude_v the_o exercise_n of_o our_o religion_n to_o be_v constant_o continue_v to_o we_o and_o that_o because_o the_o protestant_a interest_n from_o all_o these_o thing_n be_v more_o and_o more_o strengthen_v and_o allow_v to_o make_v its_o utmost_a advantage_n to_o maintain_v itself_o in_o his_o majesty_n kingdom_n all_o which_o may_v be_v so_o plead_v against_o the_o censoriousness_n i_o here_o condemn_v as_o to_o make_v it_o appear_v to_o be_v every_o whit_n as_o irrational_a as_o it_o be_v disloyalty_n the_o utmost_a that_o can_v be_v say_v as_o to_o the_o benefit_n design_v to_o the_o catholic_n by_o the_o declaration_n be_v only_o that_o his_o majesty_n will_v have_v those_o of_o his_o own_o religion_n enjoy_v the_o same_o liberty_n of_o worship_n he_o have_v give_v to_o the_o protestant_a dissenter_n and_o that_o they_o may_v be_v capable_a of_o serve_v he_o in_o public_a employment_n as_o protestant_n do_v which_o as_o it_o be_v all_o that_o be_v allow_v they_o so_o as_o far_o as_o i_o perceive_v it_o be_v as_o much_o as_o they_o desire_v to_o the_o first_o i_o will_v ask_v how_o can_v the_o king_n well_o do_v otherwise_o according_a to_o that_o divine_a principle_n upon_o which_o he_o proceed_v and_o how_o can_v protestant_n deny_v

even_o our_o church_n of_o england_n divine_v themselves_o choose_v rather_o to_o plead_v the_o obligation_n man_n be_v under_o to_o obey_v the_o law_n of_o the_o land_n whereby_o their_o liturgy_n
