not_o as_o well_o suppose_v a_o like_a tacit_a consent_v in_o the_o princess_n of_o denmark_n not_o make_v any_o opposition_n or_o protestation_n against_o this_o act_n whereby_o the_o crown_n be_v settle_v upon_o his_o majesty_n during_o his_o life_n but_o rather_o agree_v to_o it_o for_o i_o have_v hear_v that_o several_a of_o her_o servant_n in_o both_o house_n do_v declare_v that_o the_o princess_n do_v not_o design_n that_o her_o future_a right_n shall_v be_v any_o hindrance_n to_o the_o present_a settlement_n pray_v therefore_o tell_v i_o why_o may_v not_o king_n william_n hold_v the_o crown_n after_o the_o death_n of_o the_o queen_n if_o she_o shall_v happen_v first_o to_o die_v without_o any_o usurpation_n as_o well_o as_o king_n henry_n the_o seven_o hold_v it_o after_o the_o death_n of_o his_o queen_n notwithstanding_o his_o two_o son_n prince_n arthur_n and_o henry_n both_o live_v to_o be_v marry_v before_o their_o father_n die_v and_o henry_n the_o eight_o be_v then_o in_o his_o nineteen_o or_o twenty_o year_n of_o his_o age_n old_a enough_o of_o conscience_n to_o govern_v himself_o f._n i_o confess_v these_o thing_n be_v altogether_o unknown_a to_o i_o before_o as_o they_o be_v i_o believe_v to_o most_o of_o my_o condition_n and_o i_o give_v your_o worship_n many_o thanks_o for_o your_o kind_a information_n but_o pray_v sir_n resolve_v i_o one_o question_n more_o and_o i_o have_v do_v do_v you_o think_v a_o man_n may_v lawful_o take_v the_o new_a oath_n of_o allegiance_n to_o their_o present_a majesty_n notwithstanding_o king_n james_n be_v still_o alive_a and_o do_v you_o think_v i_o can_v justify_v it_o in_o law_n shall_v i_o be_v call_v to_o a_o account_n for_o it_o if_o he_o shall_v again_o by_o some_o unexpected_a mean_n or_o other_o obtain_v the_o throne_n i._o well_o neighbour_n to_o satisfy_v you_o as_o to_o the_o first_o of_o your_o question_n i_o answer_v thus_o i_o doubt_v not_o but_o you_o may_v lawful_o take_v this_o oath_n since_o the_o parliament_n have_v do_v no_o more_o in_o thus_o settle_v the_o crown_n than_o what_o many_o former_a parliament_n have_v do_v before_o in_o like_a case_n who_o proceed_n have_v be_v still_o look_v upon_o as_o good_a and_o hold_v unquestioned_a unto_o this_o day_n as_o appear_v by_o the_o precedent_n of_o henry_n the_o viith_o i_o now_o give_v you_o and_o upon_o which_o declaration_n of_o parliament_n who_o be_v the_o only_a proper_a judge_n who_o have_v most_o right_o to_o the_o crown_n in_o case_n of_o any_o dispute_n about_o it_o the_o people_n of_o this_o kingdom_n have_v still_o think_v themselves_o sufficient_o oblige_v to_o take_v such_o oath_n of_o fidelity_n and_o allegiance_n as_o the_o government_n think_v fit_a to_o frame_v and_o require_v of_o they_o according_a to_o law_n but_o i_o confess_v the_o latter_a of_o your_o question_n be_v somewhat_o hard_o to_o be_v answer_v because_o it_o depend_v upon_o a_o matter_n that_o be_v far_a remote_a since_o we_o can_v tell_v whether_o if_o ever_o at_o all_o king_n james_n shall_v re-obtain_a the_o throne_n by_o what_o mean_v it_o may_v happen_v for_o if_o it_o shall_v be_v by_o the_o force_n either_o of_o the_o irish_a or_o french_a nation_n i_o doubt_v not_o but_o we_o shall_v be_v all_o make_v mere_a slave_n and_o vassal_n without_o any_o law_n or_o settle_a property_n but_o his_o own_o will_n but_o if_o it_o shall_v be_v by_o any_o agreement_n or_o composition_n with_o he_o upon_o his_o engagement_n to_o govern_v according_a to_o law_n the●_n le●_n i_o tell_v you_o not_o only_a yourself_o but_o every_o other_o subject_a that_o take_v this_o oath_n will_v have_v a_o good_a plea_n in_o law_n for_o take_v it_o by_o the_o statute_n of_o the_o 11_o of_o henry_n the_o viith_o 1._o whereby_o it_o be_v express_o enact_v that_o every_o subject_a by_o the_o duty_n of_o his_o allegiance_n be_v bind_v to_o serve_v and_o assist_v his_o prince_n and_o sovereign_a lord_n at_o all_o season_n when_o need_n shall_v require_v and_o then_o follow_v a_o act_n of_o indemnity_n for_o all_o those_o that_o shall_v personal_o serve_v the_o king_n for_o the_o time_n be_v in_o his_o war_n which_o be_v altogether_o unreasonable_a if_o allegiance_n have_v not_o be_v due_a before_o to_o such_o a_o king_n as_o their_o sovereign_a lord_n mention_v in_o the_o preamble_n and_o if_o allegiance_n be_v due_a to_o he_o then_o certain_o a_o oath_n may_v lawful_o be_v take_v to_o observe_v it_o since_o it_o be_v no_o more_o than_o what_o the_o law_n have_v ever_o require_v from_o subject_n to_o such_o a_o king_n not_o only_o by_o this_o statute_n but_o at_o common_a law_n too_o as_o appear_v by_o my_o lord_n cook_n comment_n on_o the_o statute_n of_o edward_n the_o iiid_n where_o he_o assert_v not_o only_o from_o the_o authority_n of_o this_o statute_n but_o also_o from_o the_o old_a year-book_n that_o a_o king_n de_fw-fr facto_fw-la or_o for_o the_o time_n be_v be_v our_o lord_n the_o king_n intend_v in_o that_o statute_n and_o that_o the_o other_o who_o have_v a_o right_a and_o be_v out_o of_o possession_n be_v not_o within_o this_o act._n so_o that_o you_o see_v according_a to_o this_o act_n of_o henry_n the_o viith_o as_o also_o by_o the_o judgement_n of_o the_o best_a lawyer_n of_o england_n whatever_o person_n be_v once_o solemn_o crown_v king_n of_o england_n and_o have_v be_v so_o recognize_v by_o authority_n of_o pariiament_n as_o their_o present_a majesty_n have_v now_o be_v be_v and_o ever_o have_v be_v esteem_v lawful_a and_o rightful_a king_n or_o queen_n though_o they_o have_v no_o hereditary_a right_n of_o succession_n as_o next_o of_o blood_n as_o i_o have_v prove_v to_o you_o from_o the_o instance_n of_o king_n henry_n the_o four_o and_o seven_o and_o can_v do_v also_o by_o the_o example_n of_o queen_n mary_n or_o queen_n elizabeth_n take_v which_o you_o please_v since_o they_o can_v not_o both_o of_o they_o succeed_v as_o the_o legitimate_a daughter_n and_o heir_n of_o king_n henry_n the_o eight_o so_o that_o it_o be_v plain_a one_o or_o other_o of_o these_o queen_n have_v no_o better_a than_o a_o parliamentary_a title_n to_o the_o crown_n therefore_o upon_o the_o whole_a matter_n whether_o their_o present_a majesty_n be_v heir_n to_o the_o crown_n by_o lineal_a descent_n be_v not_o the_o question_n but_o whether_o by_o the_o law_n of_o england_n they_o be_v not_o to_o all_o intent_n and_o purpose_n lawful_a and_o rightful_a king_n and_o queen_n so_o that_o a_o oath_n of_o allegiance_n may_v be_v lawful_o take_v to_o they_o and_o all_o man_n oblige_v to_o serve_v they_o in_o all_o their_o war_n and_o other_o affair_n even_o against_o king_n james_n himself_o since_o we_o can_v serve_v two_o master_n that_o be_v owe_v allegiance_n to_o two_o king_n at_o once_o f._n i_o can_v deny_v but_o what_o you_o say_v seem_v not_o only_o very_o reasonable_a but_o also_o according_a to_o law_n but_o i_o hear_v the_o squire_n and_o the_o parson_n we_o but_o now_o mention_v positive_o assert_v that_o the_o king_n and_o parliament_n have_v no_o power_n to_o alter_v the_o succession_n to_o they_o crown_n though_o they_o will_v and_o that_o therefore_o this_o statute_n of_o henry_n the_o seven_o you_o now_o mention_v which_o indemnify_v all_o those_o that_o take_v up_o arm_n in_o defence_n of_o the_o king_n for_o the_o time_n be_v be_v void_a first_o because_o make_v by_o a_o usurper_n who_o have_v no_o right_a to_o make_v such_o a_o law_n in_o prejudice_n of_o the_o true_a king_n or_o the_o next_o heir_n of_o the_o crown_n but_o also_o because_o as_o they_o say_v it_o be_v but_o a_o temporary_a act_n and_o be_v to_o last_v no_o long_o than_o during_o his_o life_n and_o last_o because_o this_o statute_n have_v never_o be_v allow_v or_o hold_v for_o good_a in_o any_o case_n of_o assist_v usurper_n since_o that_o time_n for_o the_o duke_n of_o northumberland_n be_v arraign_v and_o execute_v for_o treason_n in_o the_o time_n of_o queen_n mary_n because_o he_o have_v assist_v and_o take_v up_o arm_n on_o behalf_n of_o the_o lady_n jane_n grace_n who_o be_v proclaim_v queen_n and_o reign_v as_o such_o for_o about_o a_o fortnight_n and_o yet_o though_o the_o duke_n plead_v afterward_o that_o he_o have_v act_v nothing_o but_o by_o order_n of_o the_o queen_n and_o council_n for_o the_o time_n be_v yet_o this_o plea_n be_v overrule_v by_o the_o peer_n who_o be_v his_o judge_n and_o he_o be_v execute_v notwithstanding_o last_o they_o say_v that_o this_o statute_n be_v implicit_o or_o by_o consequence_n repeal_v by_o those_o statute_n of_o queen_n elizabeth_n and_o king_n jeme_v which_o appoint_v the_o oath_n of_o allegiance_n to_o be_v only_o take_v to_o the_o king_n his_o heir_n and_o lawful_a successor_n beside_o a_o statute_n of_o

conspire_v against_o he_o as_o well_o as_o the_o parliament_n can_v do_v in_o the_o case_n of_o prince_n philip_n of_o spain_n who_o be_v philip._n declare_v king_n joint_o with_o queen_n mary_n though_o he_o have_v no_o other_o right_n but_o by_o act_n of_o parliament_n so_o that_o if_o the_o late_a convention_n have_v declare_v that_o the_o administration_n of_o the_o government_n shall_v remain_v sole_o in_o king_n william_n during_o his_o life_n this_o be_v only_o to_o put_v it_o out_o of_o all_o dispute_n that_o none_o may_v at_o all_o doubt_n in_o who_o the_o supreme_a power_n lay_v since_o it_o will_v not_o admit_v of_o any_o division_n f._n all_o this_o seem_v reasonable_a enough_o but_o pray_v how_o come_v it_o to_o pass_v that_o king_n william_n be_v to_o enjoy_v the_o crown_n not_o only_o during_o the_o queen_n life_n but_o his_o own_o also_o this_o i_o hear_v squire_n high-church_n and_o the_o parson_n i_o last_o mention_v cry_v out_o upon_o not_o only_o as_o a_o horrid_a breach_n of_o the_o hereditary_a succession_n but_o also_o as_o a_o great_a wrong_n to_o the_o princess_n of_o denmark_n and_o her_o heir_n be_v the_o suppose_a prince_n of_o wales_n now_o dead_a since_o it_o be_v direct_o contrary_a to_o the_o act_n of_o recognition_n of_o king_n james_n i._o whereby_o the_o parliament_n do_v not_o only_o declare_v he_o to_o be_v lawful_a and_o lineal_a heir_n of_o the_o crown_n as_o descend_v from_o the_o elder_a daughter_n of_o king_n edward_n iu._n but_o also_o they_o do_v thereby_o engage_v themselves_o and_o their_o posterity_n to_o yield_v obedience_n to_o king_n james_n and_o his_o right_a heir_n i._o pray_v satisfy_v those_o gentleman_n when_o you_o meet_v they_o that_o if_o they_o once_o will_v grant_v that_o the_o late_a king_n james_n can_v abdicate_v the_o crown_n without_o his_o own_o express_a consent_n and_o that_o declare_v this_o suppose_a prince_n to_o be_v king_n be_v altogether_o unpracticable_a and_o unsafe_a for_o the_o nation_n as_o i_o have_v already_o prove_v i_o think_v they_o need_v not_o be_v concern_v whether_o his_o present_a majesty_n enjoy_v the_o crown_n for_o life_n or_o not_o as_o long_o as_o it_o be_v for_o the_o peace_n and_o safety_n of_o the_o nation_n that_o it_o shall_v be_v so_o since_o it_o be_v for_o those_o end_n alone_o that_o king_n james_n be_v set_v aside_o and_o the_o suppose_a prince_n pass_v by_o without_o so_o much_o as_o inquire_v into_o his_o legitimacy_n if_o the_o convention_n have_v lawful_a authority_n to_o decide_v the_o great_a point_n they_o have_v certain_o after_o they_o become_v a_o parliament_n much_o more_o authority_n to_o decide_v and_o settle_v the_o less_o material_a part_n of_o this_o controversy_n viz._n the_o settlement_n of_o the_o crown_n after_o the_o queen_n decease_n since_o it_o be_v no_o more_o than_o what_o all_o former_a parliament_n have_v do_v in_o like_a case_n thus_o henry_n the_o iv._o and_o henry_n the_o vii_o be_v formal_o declare_v nay_o the_o latter_a recognize_v for_o lawful_a king_n by_o authority_n of_o parliament_n notwithstanding_o the_o lineal_a heir_n by_o blood_n be_v then_o alive_a and_o in_o be_v and_o not_o only_o so_o but_o before_o ever_o henry_n the_o vii_o marry_a with_o the_o princess_n elizabeth_n daughter_n to_o king_n edward_n the_o iv._o the_o crown_n be_v settle_v upon_o he_o and_o the_o heir_n of_o his_o body_n by_o a_o act_n which_o you_o may_v find_v in_o print_n in_o our_o statute-book_n though_o he_o have_v no_o right_n at_o all_o by_o succession_n since_o his_o mother_n the_o countess_n of_o richmond_n from_o who_o all_o the_o right_o he_o can_v pretend_v to_o the_o crown_n be_v derive_v be_v then_o alive_a nor_o have_v make_v any_o session_n of_o it_o to_o he_o so_o that_o if_o this_o be_v true_a which_o i_o be_o able_a to_o prove_v that_o a_o hereditary_a succession_n in_o a_o right_a line_n be_v never_o any_o fundamental_a law_n of_o this_o kingdom_n and_o second_o that_o after_o the_o crown_n come_v to_o be_v claim_v by_o a_o hereditary_a right_n which_o be_v no_o old_a than_o edward_n the_o ist_n time_n the_o parliament_n have_v often_o take_v upon_o they_o to_o break_v in_o upon_o this_o hereditary_a succession_n whenever_o the_o safety_n and_o necessity_n of_o the_o kingdom_n require_v it_o and_o three_o that_o all_o those_o king_n who_o have_v thus_o succeed_v without_o this_o lineal_a right_n of_o succession_n have_v be_v not_o only_o during_o their_o own_o reign_n own_v for_o true_a and_o legal_a king_n attainder_n of_o treason_n hold_v good_a against_o all_o person_n that_o conspire_v against_o they_o but_o also_o after_o their_o reign_n be_v end_v for_o we_o see_v all_o such_o act_n of_o parliament_n make_v under_o they_o stand_v good_a at_o this_o day_n unless_o it_o be_v those_o that_o be_v repeal_v by_o subsequent_a parliament_n and_o can_v there_o then_o be_v any_o question_n make_v but_o that_o the_o present_a parliament_n have_v as_o much_o power_n to_o settle_v the_o crown_n upon_o his_o present_a majesty_n for_o life_n as_o they_o have_v to_o settle_v it_o upon_o king_n henry_n the_o iv._o or_o henry_n the_o vii_o and_o the_o heir_n of_o their_o body_n since_o those_o prince_n can_v not_o deserve_v more_o from_o the_o nation_n in_o free_v it_o from_o the_o tyranny_n of_o the_o two_o richards_n the_o ii_o and_o iii_o than_o his_o present_a majesty_n have_v do_v by_o free_v we_o from_o the_o arbitrary_a power_n of_o king_n james._n and_o let_v i_o tell_v you_o far_o that_o the_o gentleman_n you_o mention_n be_v mistake_v in_o their_o repetition_n of_o that_o act_n of_o recognition_n of_o king_n james_n the_o ist_n title_n for_o though_o it_o be_v true_a they_o acknowledge_v he_o for_o

that_o act_n of_o parliament_n but_o only_o in_o general_n that_o they_o promise_v obedience_n and_o loyalty_n to_o that_o king_n and_o his_o royal_a progeny_n and_o sure_o none_o will_v deny_v their_o present_a majesty_n to_o be_v the_o true_a progeny_n of_o king_n james_n the_o ist._n f._n i_o grant_v this_o seem_v very_o reasonable_a but_o those_o gentleman_n i_o now_o mention_v also_o say_v that_o henry_n the_o iv._o be_v in_o the_o reign_n of_o king_n edward_n the_o iv._o declare_v a_o usurper_n by_o act_n of_o parliament_n and_o as_o for_o henry_n the_o seven_o he_o have_v
