1._o it_o be_v thereby_o acknowledge_v that_o a_o king_n de_fw-fr facto_fw-la have_v the_o name_n and_o style_n of_o a_o king_n of_o england_n 2._o we_o be_v to_o recognize_v such_o a_o one_o as_o our_o sovereign_a lord_n 3._o that_o allegiance_n be_v due_a to_o such_o a_o king_n from_o all_o his_o subject_n 4._o that_o by_o reason_n of_o the_o same_o allegiance_n they_o be_v bind_v to_o serve_v he_o even_o in_o his_o war_n 5._o that_o they_o be_v never_o hereafter_o to_o be_v question_v though_o the_o lawful_a king_n shall_v recover_v his_o right_n for_o so_o do_v their_o true_a duty_n and_o service_n of_o allegiance_n as_o the_o word_n be_v 6._o that_o war_n make_v against_o such_o a_o king_n by_o his_o subject_n be_v rebellion_n all_o these_o thing_n be_v plain_a in_o the_o letter_n of_o that_o law_n which_o have_v continue_v unrepealed_a or_o unquestioned_a for_o above_o two_o hundred_o year_n and_o consequent_o so_o long_o have_v be_v the_o approve_a sense_n of_o the_o whole_a nation_n that_o allegiance_n and_o true_a and_o faithful_a service_n be_v due_a to_o our_o sovereign_a lord_n for_o the_o time_n be_v whatever_o his_o title_n be_v hence_o it_o follow_v that_o in_o the_o sense_n of_o the_o law_n a_o king_n de_fw-fr jure_fw-la only_o be_v not_o king._n the_o statute_n say_v the_o king_n for_o the_o time_n be_v and_o see_v we_o can_v have_v but_o one_o king_n he_o that_o have_v only_o right_a to_o be_v king_n be_v no_o king_n in_o be_v or_o for_o the_o time_n be_v hereupon_o i_o suppose_v the_o great_a lawyer_n inform_v we_o that_o the_o king_n de_fw-fr jure_fw-la only_o be_v not_o within_o the_o purview_n of_o the_o statute_n of_o treason_n be_v not_o as_o they_o say_v signior_n le_fw-fr roy._n consequent_o if_o treason_n can_v be_v commit_v against_o a_o king_n de_fw-fr jure_fw-la while_o he_o be_v out_o of_o possession_n allegiance_n can_v be_v due_a to_o he_o which_o be_v a_o duty_n we_o owe_v to_o the_o king_n as_o our_o soveragin_n lord_n and_o none_o in_o the_o eye_n of_o the_o law_n be_v so_o but_o the_o king_n in_o possession_n thus_o the_o formal_a reason_n of_o the_o oath_n of_o allegiance_n to_o the_o late_a king_n cease_v if_o he_o be_v no_o king_n in_o law_n because_o out_o of_o possession_n the_o obligation_n of_o that_o oath_n with_o respect_n to_o he_o cease_v also_o beside_o much_o of_o the_o matter_n of_o our_o former_a oath_n be_v go_v too_o for_o we_o be_v swear_v to_o bear_v true_a allegiance_n to_o he_o in_o reveal_v and_o prevent_v treason_n against_o he_o and_o now_o he_o be_v not_o a_o object_n capable_a of_o treason_n but_o they_o also_o tell_v we_o treason_n may_v be_v commit_v against_o a_o king_n regnant_a without_o right_n and_o if_o so_o it_o be_v thence_o evident_a that_o allegiance_n be_v due_a to_o he_o against_o which_o treason_n be_v direct_o contrary_a treason_n be_v a_o offence_n against_o our_o natural_a allegiance_n which_o appear_v from_o the_o form_n of_o endictment_n the_o word_n be_v contra_fw-la debitum_fw-la fidei_fw-la &_o ligeantiae_fw-la suae_fw-la against_o the_o duty_n of_o faith_n and_o true_a allegiance_n so_o near_o be_v they_o to_o the_o very_a word_n in_o the_o oath_n of_o allegiance_n in_o a_o word_n to_o apply_v it_o be_v not_o william_n and_o mary_n now_o regnant_a and_o in_o full_a possession_n of_o the_o government_n to_o deny_v this_o be_v to_o impose_v upon_o our_o sense_n be_v they_o not_o our_o sovereign_n also_o to_o who_o we_o owe_v allegiance_n this_o to_o question_n be_v against_o all_o kind_n of_o law_n may_v we_o be_v guilty_a of_o treason_n against_o they_o then_o suppose_a allegiance_n to_o their_o enemy_n seem_v to_o be_v a_o degree_n towards_o that_o treason_n and_o to_o be_v a_o treasonable_a principle_n if_o bring_v into_o act_n it_o tend_v apparent_o to_o the_o death_n of_o the_o king_n and_o queen_n and_o how_o far_o the_o very_a opinion_n be_v from_o imagination_n and_o consequent_o from_o the_o formality_n of_o treason_n shall_v be_v sober_o consider_v at_o least_o to_o abate_v our_o censure_v of_o the_o government_n that_o with_o some_o severity_n require_v our_o allegiance_n and_o if_o it_o may_v be_v to_o persuade_v we_o to_o timely_a conformity_n therein_o the_o sum_n be_v i_o think_v we_o can_v justify_v our_o refuse_v to_o take_v the_o new_a oath_n of_o allegiance_n to_o king_n william_n and_o queen_n mary_n without_o destroy_v act_n of_o parliament_n change_v the_o law_n of_o england_n and_o raze_v the_o principle_n and_o law_n of_o nature_n the_o word_n of_o two_o hen._n 7._o cap._n 1._o bear_v to_o our_o purpose_n be_v these_o the_o king_n our_o sovereign_a lord_n call_v to_o his_o remembrance_n the_o duty_n of_o allegiance_n of_o the_o subject_n of_o this_o his_o realm_n and_o
