animadversion_n upon_o the_o modern_a explanation_n of_o 11_o hen._n 7._o cap._n 1._o or_o a_o king_n de_fw-fr facto_fw-la though_o our_o gentleman_n of_o the_o revolution_n seem_v well_o satisfy_v with_o their_o new_a allegiance_n yet_o the_o reason_n if_o not_o the_o degree_n of_o their_o compliance_n be_v very_o different_a it_o be_v true_a there_o be_v some_o few_o furnish_v with_o that_o variety_n of_o demonstration_n as_o to_o be_v able_a to_o make_v out_o the_o justice_n of_o the_o late_a proceed_n from_o no_o less_o than_o four_o infallible_a topic_n abdication_n forfeiture_n etc._n etc._n but_o man_n of_o this_o compass_n of_o thought_n be_v not_o common_o meet_v with_o the_o more_o moderate_a undertaker_n be_v content_a to_o maintain_v a_o single_a post_n and_o think_v themselves_o well_o if_o the_o cause_n will_v afford_v they_o one_o good_a reason_n for_o what_o they_o do_v now_o in_o this_o their_o vindication_n they_o be_v no_o less_o divide_v from_o themselves_o than_o from_o their_o neighbour_n of_o the_o old_a government_n some_o man_n affirm_v that_o the_o crown_n be_v lapse_v to_o the_o people_n and_o that_o their_o representative_n have_v give_v it_o to_o the_o prince_n of_o orange_n by_o way_n of_o gratitude_n other_o think_v their_o conscience_n not_o safe_a in_o this_o bottom_n tell_v we_o that_o they_o be_v either_o conquer_a or_o undo_v and_o seem_v uneasy_a because_o they_o do_v argue_v in_o chain_n in_o earnest_n our_o circumstance_n must_v needs_o be_v hard_a when_o our_o best_a friend_n who_o be_v so_o nice_o apprehensive_a of_o the_o least_o encroachment_n desert_n we_o at_o this_o surprise_a rate_n who_o will_v have_v think_v that_o these_o keeper_n of_o the_o liberty_n of_o england_n who_o declaim_v so_o hearty_o against_o arbitrary_a power_n and_o give_v god_n solemn_a thanks_o for_o their_o deliverance_n shall_v reverse_v their_o devotion_n thus_o soon_o plead_v against_o magna_fw-la charta_fw-la and_o set_v all_o their_o wit_n on_o work_n to_o make_v we_o as_o great_a slave_n as_o those_o in_o turkey_n for_o that_o this_o glorious_a condition_n be_v the_o consequence_n of_o conquest_n be_v a_o truth_n so_o obvious_a to_o collect_v that_o a_o very_a little_a reason_v will_v make_v it_o undeniable_a and_o as_o if_o dispute_v and_o print_n against_o the_o freedom_n of_o their_o country_n be_v not_o enough_o to_o make_v all_o sure_a they_o be_v please_v to_o ratify_v their_o slavery_n with_o a_o oath_n that_o they_o do_v no_o less_o be_v apparent_a for_o those_o that_o swear_v to_o the_o new_a establishment_n upon_o the_o principle_n of_o conquest_n swear_v that_o the_o law_n of_o the_o old_a constitution_n be_v no_o long_o in_o force_n and_o that_o the_o present_a possessor_n may_v turn_v they_o out_o of_o their_o freehold_n and_o sell_v they_o to_o the_o west_n indies_n without_o any_o legal_a injustice_n for_o when_o a_o people_n be_v conquer_a their_o life_n and_o fortune_n lie_v at_o the_o mercy_n of_o the_o conqueror_n this_o title_n make_v his_o sovereignty_n absolute_a and_o his_o will_n a_o law._n but_o i_o shall_v take_v leave_n of_o these_o submissive_a gentleman_n and_o proceed_v to_o consider_v the_o argument_n for_o a_o king_n de_fw-fr facto_fw-la now_o it_o be_v assert_v by_o some_o of_o the_o long_a robe_n that_o possession_n of_o the_o throne_n abstract_v from_o any_o other_o title_n be_v sufficient_a to_o challenge_v a_o full_a obedience_n from_o the_o subject_a and_o that_o the_o right_n of_o a_o lawful_a prince_n expire_v upon_o his_o dispossession_n this_o opinion_n be_v found_v upon_o sir_n ed._n coke_n authority_n who_o in_o his_o institutes_n part_n 3_o ch._n high_a treason_n maintain_v that_o the_o word_n roi_fw-fr mention_v 25_o ed._n 3._o be_v to_o be_v understand_v of_o a_o king_n in_o possession_n though_o unjust_o of_o the_o crown_n and_o kingdom_n the_o ground_n of_o this_o conclusion_n be_v take_v from_o 11_o h_n 7._o c._n 1._o now_o suppose_v this_o act_n do_v resolve_v all_o right_n into_o force_n and_o be_v as_o extraordinary_a as_o some_o people_n will_v make_v it_o yet_o it_o can_v secure_v no_o more_o than_o they_o dominion_n of_o england_n to_o the_o present_a possessor_n for_o first_o it_o can_v reach_v scotland_n because_o it_o be_v a_o independent_a kingdom_n and_o it_o have_v late_o declare_v in_o parliament_n when_o duke_n lauderdale_n be_v high_a commissioner_n that_o the_o prosperity_n of_o that_o nation_n have_v be_v chief_o owe_v next_o under_o god_n to_o the_o absolute_a power_n and_o uninterrupted_a succession_n of_o their_o king_n so_o that_o it_o be_v plain_a a_o king_n de_fw-fr facto_fw-la have_v nothing_o to_o do_v there_o neither_o have_v he_o any_o better_a colour_n of_o pretence_n to_o the_o government_n of_o ireland_n first_o for_o the_o reason_n abovementioned_a viz._n because_o ireland_n be_v a_o separate_a and_o distinct_a dominion_n from_o england_n as_o sir_n ed._n coke_n undeniable_o prove_v calvin_n case_n p._n 22_o 23._o second_o if_o it_o be_v object_v that_o the_o irish_a oblige_v themselves_o by_o poyning_n act_n to_o be_v govern_v by_o the_o law_n of_o england_n to_o this_o i_o answer_v that_o the_o irish_a bind_v themselves_o only_o to_o receive_v those_o law_n which_o be_v then_o make_v not_o such_o as_o shall_v be_v make_v for_o the_o future_a and_o therefore_o that_o kingdom_n be_v unconcern_v with_o 11_o h._n 7._o in_o regard_n it_o be_v enact_v a_o year_n after_o the_o statute_n of_o poynings_n beside_o in_o that_o island_n the_o king_n de_fw-fr jure_fw-la and_o de_fw-fr facto_fw-la be_v the_o same_o person_n to_o return_v therefore_o to_o england_n i_o observe_v first_o that_o sir_n ed._n coke_n in_o his_o notion_n of_o the_o prerogative_n of_o a_o king_n de_fw-fr facto_fw-la contradict_v himself_o for_o in_o calvin_n case_n he_o tell_v we_o that_o allegiance_n and_o faith_n be_v due_a to_o a_o king_n by_o the_o law_n of_o nature_n he_o must_v mean_v a_o rightful_a king_n for_o the_o law_n of_o nature_n do_v not_o encourage_v injustice_n and_o usurpation_n second_o he_o affirm_v that_o the_o law_n of_o nature_n be_v part_n of_o the_o law_n of_o england_n and_o cite_v bracton_n fortescue_n etc._n etc._n for_o this_o point_n and_o three_o that_o the_o law_n of_o nature_n be_v immutable_a calvin_n case_n p._n 12._o from_o hence_o i_o infer_v that_o if_o allegiance_n be_v due_a to_o a_o rightful_a king_n by_o the_o law_n of_o nature_n if_o this_o law_n be_v incorporate_v into_o our_o english_a constitution_n and_o of_o a_o immutable_a obligation_n than_o it_o necessary_o follow_v that_o as_o long_o as_o we_o have_v a_o king_n de_fw-fr jure_fw-la we_o must_v be_v de_fw-la jure_fw-la his_o subject_n so_o that_o by_o sir_n ed._n coke_n argument_n it_o must_v be_v unlawful_a to_o assign_v over_o our_o obedience_n to_o a_o prince_n de_fw-fr facto_fw-la who_o have_v nothing_o but_o mere_a power_n to_o prove_v his_o authority_n farther_o he_o tell_v we_o that_o rex_fw-la de_fw-la facto_fw-la &_o non_fw-la de_fw-la jure_fw-la be_v seignieur_n le_fw-fr roi_fw-fr within_o the_o purvieu_n of_o the_o statute_n sc_n 25_o ed._n 3._o which_o he_o pretend_v to_o prove_v from_o 11_o h._n 7._o c._n 1._o which_o be_v the_o first_o authority_n he_o cite_v in_o confirmation_n of_o his_o opinion_n he_o own_v by_o consequence_n that_o before_o the_o make_v this_o statute_n a_o king_n de_fw-fr facto_fw-la be_v not_o within_o the_o purvieu_n of_o 25_o ed._n 3._o and_o therefore_o upon_o his_o own_o ground_n the_o king_n for_o the_o time_n be_v mention_v 11_o h._n 7._o c._n 1._o must_v be_v a_o king_n de_fw-fr jure_fw-la at_o least_o one_o that_o be_v presume_v such_o because_o at_o that_o time_n the_o constitution_n know_v no_o other_o for_o that_o possession_n be_v not_o a_o sufficient_a title_n before_o 11_o h._n 7._o will_v evident_o appear_v from_o these_o follow_a remark_n first_o because_o we_o do_v find_v so_o much_o as_o the_o name_n of_o a_o king_n de_fw-fr facto_fw-la in_o our_o statute_n till_o 1_o ed._n
