the_o p._n of_o o._n come_v to_o be_v king_n it_o be_v impossible_a for_o such_o forward_a spirit_n to_o look_v at_o reversion_n after_o his_o death_n since_o the_o king_n have_v neither_o old_a age_n nor_o astma_fw-la nor_o any_o other_o infirmity_n upon_o he_o that_o may_v give_v they_o that_o occasion_n and_o i_o will_v give_v you_o another_o demonstration_n that_o you_o be_v not_o mistake_v about_o his_o intention_n at_o shirbourn_n castle_n his_o highness_n make_v a_o solemn_a promise_n of_o some_o ecclesiastical_a preferment_n to_o a_o clergyman_n who_o be_v resolve_v to_o put_v in_o time_n enough_o there_o make_v his_o application_n upon_o these_o and_o many_o more_o such_o like_a account_n you_o say_v you_o be_v very_o sensible_a that_o the_o revolution_n stand_v upon_o a_o foundation_n which_o have_v no_o mixture_n in_o it_o of_o honour_n or_o honesty_n but_o yet_o you_o dare_v scarce_o entertain_v the_o thought_n of_o another_o revolution_n for_o fear_n of_o the_o french_a and_o lest_o the_o nation_n shall_v lose_v the_o comfort_n and_o advantage_n of_o good_a neighbourhood_n and_o alliance_n with_o the_o dutch._n now_o i_o think_v if_o i_o set_v you_o right_o in_o these_o two_o point_n your_o way_n be_v quite_o clear_v and_o i_o suppose_v i_o shall_v do_v that_o if_o i_o make_v out_o upon_o the_o square_a these_o follow_a thing_n 1._o that_o our_o king_n will_v not_o make_v any_o use_n of_o the_o french_a to_o annoy_v we_o 2._o if_o he_o will_v the_o french_a will_v not_o assist_v he_o in_o it_o 3._o that_o all_o the_o mischief_n we_o can_v apprehend_v from_o the_o french_a and_o much_o more_o we_o shall_v suffer_v from_o the_o dutch._n first_o i_o say_v the_o king_n will_v not_o offer_v to_o bring_v the_o french_a upon_o we_o to_o annoy_v we_o and_o especial_o in_o our_o religion_n because_o it_o be_v against_o all_o the_o common_a and_o know_v rule_n of_o policy_n for_o any_o prince_n who_o be_v at_o peace_n at_o home_n to_o call_v in_o any_o foreigner_n because_o they_o always_o plunder_n and_o ravage_n the_o nation_n and_o throw_v the_o people_n into_o a_o discontent_a fear_n and_o a_o neglect_n of_o trade_n and_o then_o twenty_o to_o one_o but_o they_o make_v a_o prey_n of_o the_o prince_n that_o invite_v they_o when_o he_o be_v weaken_a by_o the_o poverty_n and_o disaffection_n of_o his_o subject_n second_o we_o must_v conclude_v the_o king_n will_v not_o bring_v in_o a_o french_a army_n because_o he_o harbour_v and_o cherish_v with_o a_o princely_a compassion_n and_o charity_n all_o those_o hugonot_n who_o in_o very_o great_a number_n come_v over_o from_o france_n we_o see_v by_o experience_n they_o will_v have_v bear_v arm_n against_o he_o and_o the_o king_n will_v never_o have_v receive_v they_o who_o he_o may_v have_v well_o keep_v back_o without_o discontent_a the_o nation_n which_o according_a to_o the_o spirit_n then_o up_o be_v unwilling_a enough_o to_o entertain_v they_o three_o we_o must_v believe_v the_o king_n will_v never_o have_v offer_v to_o bring_v in_o any_o french_a army_n upon_o we_o because_o of_o his_o own_o mere_a grace_n and_o goodness_n he_o procure_v when_o he_o be_v d._n of_o york_n a_o repeal_n of_o the_o statute_n de_fw-fr comburendo_fw-la haeretico_fw-la a_o law_n which_o will_v have_v do_v his_o business_n even_o without_o the_o french_a if_o he_o will_v have_v be_v at_o that_o work_n last_o we_o may_v conclude_v without_o impeachment_n to_o our_o reason_n that_o the_o king_n will_v not_o bring_v in_o a_o french_a army_n because_o he_o do_v not_o go_v about_o it_o for_o after_o all_o that_o a_o malicious_a industry_n can_v do_v the_o p._n of_o o._n in_o a_o defence_n of_o his_o declaration_n publish_v by_o his_o highness_n command_n confess_v in_o the_o very_a first_o paragraph_n no_o such_o league_n with_o france_n can_v be_v prove_v but_o now_o if_o the_o king_n of_o england_n can_v have_v have_v such_o a_o design_n the_o king_n of_o france_n will_v not_o have_v concur_v with_o he_o in_o it_o and_o we_o may_v well_o conclude_v he_o will_v not_o first_o because_o he_o decline_v the_o overture_n which_o the_o dutch_a make_v he_o 5._o see_v stubbe_n further_a justification_n of_o the_o war_n with_o the_o unite_a netherlands_o p._n 5._o to_o transport_v fifty_o thousand_o of_o his_o soldier_n into_o any_o part_n of_o the_o king_n of_o england_n england_n s_o dominion_n have_v the_o king_n of_o france_n be_v incline_v to_o invade_v we_o as_o the_o dutch_a advise_v and_o some_o fear_v he_o will_v never_o have_v baulk_v a_o opportunity_n so_o fit_a for_o such_o a_o enterprise_n for_o the_o dutch_a make_v he_o the_o offer_n when_o the_o old_a rebel_n have_v almost_o put_v the_o nation_n into_o confusion_n again_o second_o the_o king_n of_o france_n will_v not_o assist_v the_o k._n of_o england_n in_o any_o such_o design_n because_o if_o he_o send_v any_o of_o his_o man_n to_o embroil_v we_o he_o can_v not_o defend_v his_o conquest_n upon_o the_o continent_n nay_o he_o will_v not_o be_v able_a to_o defend_v his_o own_o kingdom_n against_o those_o many_o enemy_n that_o surround_v he_o three_o he_o will_v not_o because_o the_o welfare_n of_o france_n depend_v much_o upon_o the_o prosperity_n and_o good_a condition_n of_o england_n we_o consume_v more_o of_o their_o manufacture_n than_o any_o nation_n do_v and_o they_o much_o of_o we_o so_o that_o the_o balance_n of_o trade_n be_v at_o least_o much_o more_o equal_a betwixt_o we_o and_o the_o french_a than_o betwixt_o we_o and_o the_o dutch_a from_o who_o whatsoever_o we_o have_v come_v as_o it_o be_v out_o of_o the_o huckster_n hand_n those_o act_n of_o parliament_n which_o prohibit_v commerce_n with_o france_n stand_v upon_o this_o notion_n that_o a_o trade_n with_o england_n be_v of_o mighty_a importance_n to_o france_n and_o if_o stop_v of_o trade_n be_v cut_v the_o sinew_n of_o that_o kingdom_n we_o may_v just_o conclude_v that_o monarch_n will_v not_o go_v about_o to_o hamstring_n himself_o a_o man_n therefore_o must_v be_v very_o subject_a to_o the_o night_n mare_n indeed_o that_o can_v apprehend_v dragoon_v from_o france_n whatsoever_o his_o zeal_n or_o his_o ambition_n can_v prompt_v he_o to_o do_v upon_o his_o hugonot_n at_o home_n we_o may_v see_v that_o king_n either_o repent_v or_o have_v policy_n enough_o not_o to_o pursue_v the_o point_n any_o further_o by_o this_o time_n i_o presume_v your_o stomach_n be_v settle_v and_o you_o out_o of_o danger_n of_o another_o qualm_n for_o fear_n of_o france_n i_o will_v now_o proceed_v to_o show_v you_o that_o your_o mistake_n be_v both_o gross_a and_o dangerous_a that_o upon_o this_o revolution_n we_o shall_v have_v a_o happy_a and_o advantageous_a alliance_n with_o the_o dutch._n if_o we_o have_v any_o advantage_n from_o the_o dutch_a it_o must_v be_v either_o in_o protection_n to_o our_o religion_n or_o safeguard_n to_o our_o country_n or_o improvement_n of_o our_o trade_n but_o i_o will_v demonstrate_v that_o your_o expectation_n be_v vain_a and_o ill_o ground_v as_o to_o every_o one_o of_o these_o particular_n and_o that_o i_o hope_v will_v amount_v to_o a_o full_a conviction_n first_o it_o be_v improper_a and_o absurd_a to_o expect_v protection_n for_o our_o religion_n from_o the_o dutch_a because_o the_o dutch_a either_o have_v no_o religion_n at_o all_o themselves_o or_o pay_v no_o regard_n to_o it_o i_o speak_v in_o general_a and_o with_o respect_n to_o their_o government_n for_o in_o the_o indies_n they_o renounce_v christianity_n in_o so_o
