or three S 7. yet 't is plain it was his own Will because he commanded it to be drawn written and sealed and never revoked it Besides it is subscribed by many witnesses and inrolled in the Chancery by his own command enough to make it good against the assertion of those few who to please the time wherein they spake in Queen Maries time might say and ghess the King was past memory when his stamp was put to it Now to make good what he did two Acts of Parlaments 28 35. of his Reign gave him full authoritie to dispose of this Point of Succession as he and his learned Council should think best for the Common-wealth By a Statute made in the 27th of Elisabeth 27. Elisah a Statute was made That whosoever shall be convinced to conspire attempt or procure the Queens death or is privie or accessary to the same shall loose all right title pretence claim or action that they or their heirs have or may have to the Crown of England Now the late Queen of Scots being attainted and executed by the authoritie of the said Parlament and for breach of the said Statute 't is easie to determine what Title her Son hath claiming only by her The Uniting of Scotland with England dangerous to the English or like to be 1. Only the increase of Subjects but those rather to participate the Commodities of England than to impart any from Scotland 2. The natural hatred of that People unto us and their ancient inclination to joyn with our enemies the French and Irish against us are Arguments of great mischiefs likely to ensue by that conjunction 3. The Scot must needs hold in jealousie so many Englishmen competitors of the Blood Royal and therefore will fortifie himself against them by those Forrein Nations of whom he is discended with whom he is allyed as the Scots French Danes and uncivil Irish which will prove intolerable to the English 4. The King both for his own safety and for the love he beareth to his own Nation will advance them and plant them about him in chief Places of credit which must needs breed Emulations and Controversies between them and the English Then must he of Force secretly begin to favor and fortifie his own to the incredible calamitie of the other as Canutus did his Danes and William the Conqueror his Normans neither of them enemies to the English blood nor evil Kings but careful of their own safeties for herein it is impossible to be neutral 5. The Romans with all their Power and Policie could never unite the hearts of England and Scotland in peace nor hold the Scots and North-Irish in obedience of any authority residing in England What then are we to hope for of this King herein The Religion of Scotland unpleasing to our State His Religion is neither fit for our State wherein Archbishops c. and Officers of Cathedral Churches are of much dignitie and there suppressed nor will be pleasing to our Nobilitie to be subject to the exorbitant and popular authoritie of a few ordinary Ministers which the King himself is there content to yield unto And therefore it is likely that few will be forward to entertain that King for the reforming of Religion here that hath no better Order in his own at home For the Ladie Arabella For the Ladie Arabella is alleged her being an equal degree of Discent with the King of Scots Her being above him in all hopes for herself or benefit to the English that can be expected in an English Prince and a Prince born in England Against Her Neither she nor the Scot are properly of the House of Lancaster and the Title of Lancaster is before the Pretence of York ut suprà 2. The testament of King Henry 8. barreth her as well as the Scot 3. Her Discent is not free from Bastardie for Queen Margaret soon after the death of her first Husband married Steward Lord of Annerdale who was alive long after her marriage with Anguis and it is most certain also That Anguis had another Wife alive when he married the said Queen All this confirmed by the Lord William Howard Father to the now Admiral sent into Scotland by Henry 8. of purpose to enquire thereof who reported it to King Henry Queen Mary and divers others For this cause King Henry would have letted the marriage between Anguis and his Sister and chiefly caused him to exclude her issue 4. She is a Woman and it were perhaps a great inconvenience that three of the weak sex should succeed one the other 5. All her Kindred by her Father is meer Scotish In England she hath none but by her Mother the Candishes a mean Familie and Kindred for a Princess CAP.

The Earle of Hartford's Children illegitimate THe Children of the Earle of Hartford Discending of Ladie Frances the eldest Daughter of Charles Brandon are proved illigitimate 1. Because the Ladie Katharine Gray their Mother was lawful Wife to the Earle of Pembroke when they were born not separated from him by lawful authority or for any just cause but abandoned by him because her House was come into misery and disgrace 2. It could never be lawfully proved that the said Earle and Ladie Katharine were married but only by their own Assertions not sufficient in Law Therefore was the marriage disannulled in the Arches by publick and definitive sentence of Parker Archbishop of Canterbury not long after the Birth of the said Children 3. When the Marquess of Dorset married their Grandmother the Ladie Frances he had another lawful Wife sister to H. Fitz-allen Earle of Arundel whom he put away to obtain so great a marriage as was the Lady Frances This bred much hate between the Marquess and Earle ever after but the Marquess favor with K. Henry deprived the other of all remedy And therefore may their Mother the Lady Katharine seem illegitimate too Bastardie in the issue of Charles Brandon Charles Brandon had a wife alive when he married the Queen of France by which wife he had issue the Ladie Powyse wife of the Lord Powyse and this wife of his lived some time after his marriage with the Queen Darby's Evasion This Wife say the Friends of Darby died before the birth of the Lady Eleonor the yonger daughter their ancestor though after the Birth of the Lady Francis Hartford's ancestor Hartford's Confutation of the first Bastardie To the first Bastardy of Hartford their Friends affirm That the Contract between the Lady Katharine and the Earl of Pembrook was dissolved lawfully and judicially in the time of Queen Mary Hartford's evasion of the second Bastardie in the behalf of his Second born Edward Seymore The Lady Katharine being found with Child affirmed the Earle of Hartford to be the Father Hereupon he being sent for out of France where he was with Sir N.
