the_o last_o part_n of_o it_o if_o this_o be_v allow_v i_o think_v we_o may_v as_o well_o conclude_v that_o a_o firm_a protestant_n may_v enter_v upon_o the_o possession_n of_o the_o throne_n and_o chair_n of_o the_o pope_n and_o swear_v and_o vow_v to_o preserve_v all_o the_o abomination_n of_o the_o papacy_n but_o we_o may_v easy_o foresee_v that_o papist_n will_v clamour_v against_o this_o as_o a_o thing_n impracticable_a and_o self-contradiction_n as_o the_o associate_n of_o the_o holy_a league_n in_o france_n do_v against_o their_o henry_n the_o four_o who_o often_o protest_v that_o a_o protestant_n be_v incapable_a of_o the_o french_a crown_n and_o sure_o we_o have_v as_o much_o reason_n to_o say_v that_o a_o papist_n be_v as_o incapable_a of_o the_o crown_n of_o england_n and_o now_o have_v consider_v the_o two_o position_n propose_v to_o be_v speak_v to_o i_o come_v to_o apply_v they_o and_o the_o manifest_a duty_n which_o the_o forementioned_a thing_n do_v enforce_v upon_o
