the_o fraternity_n of_o a_o protestant_a nonconformist_n they_o say_v nothing_o to_o the_o late_a king_n till_o he_o begin_v to_o touch_v their_o copy-holds_a then_o they_o call_v out_o for_o help_n

of_o the_o nation_n that_o it_o can_v never_o be_v say_v that_o all_o man_n grant_v his_o title_n unquestionable_a as_o the_o discusser_n impose_v upon_o the_o world._n beside_o the_o many_o instance_n in_o history_n of_o several_a prince_n who_o have_v forfeit_v their_o succession_n and_o consequent_o their_o title_n to_o the_o crown_n for_o revolt_a from_o the_o establish_v religion_n of_o the_o realm_n but_o say_v the_o discusser_n for_o i_o look_v upon_o his_o friend_n and_o he_o to_o be_v all_o one_o and_o that_o he_o do_v but_o put_v the_o question_n with_o one_o side_n of_o his_o mouth_n and_o answer_v it_o with_o the_o other_o i_o have_v think_v our_o law_n as_o well_o as_o our_o religion_n have_v be_v against_o the_o depose_v doctrine_n that_o be_v not_o the_o question_n but_o whether_o a_o prince_n may_v commit_v those_o miscarriage_n in_o government_n whether_o he_o may_v not_o so_o far_o peccare_fw-la in_o leges_fw-la &_o rempublicam_fw-la as_o to_o

say_v to_o be_v the_o lawful_a king_n of_o that_o realm_n these_o be_v the_o question_n for_o than_o it_o be_v not_o the_o law_n that_o depose_v he_o nor_o the_o religion_n that_o justify_v it_o but_o it_o be_v he_o that_o depose_v himself_o it_o be_v the_o bad_a advice_n of_o evil_a counsellor_n to_o which_o he_o listen_v and_o which_o he_o follow_v to_o the_o ruin_n of_o the_o kingdom_n contrary_a to_o the_o original_a contract_n between_o prince_n and_o people_n ground_v upon_o the_o foundation_n of_o all_o original_a government_n i_o say_v it_o be_v that_o adhere_n to_o evil_a counsel_n which_o depose_v a_o prince_n by_o degrade_n he_o from_o a_o lawful_a king_n to_o a_o unlawful_a tyrant_n and_o fender_n he_o liable_a to_o the_o animadversion_n of_o the_o law_n and_o the_o impeachment_n of_o the_o oppress_a and_o injure_a people_n to_o assert_v otherwise_o be_v to_o deprive_v all_o national_a law_n and_o religion_n of_o their self_o defence_n which_o be_v against_o all_o the_o law_n and_o religion_n in_o the_o world._n i_o be_o apt_a to_o believe_v that_o christ_n himself_o have_v not_o very_o good_a opinion_n of_o the_o lawfulness_n of_o herod_n regality_n when_o he_o send_v he_o that_o message_n go_v tell_v that_o fox_n herod_n which_o i_o look_v upon_o as_o a_o deposal_n and_o degrade_n of_o that_o arbitrary_a prince_n by_o the_o founder_n of_o our_o religion_n in_o his_o own_o breast_n and_o judgement_n though_o he_o forbear_v the_o execution_n of_o his_o celestial_a power_n and_o therefore_o it_o be_v not_o the_o error_n of_o religion_n but_o the_o fault_n of_o
