come_v after_o then_o go_v demand_v the_o author_n opinion_n concern_v the_o true_a successor_n which_o be_v the_o second_o point_n that_o be_v demand_v before_o a_o parliament_n as_o i_o tell_v my_o

which_o seem_v to_o be_v of_o some_o value_n they_o be_v handle_v at_o large_a by_o the_o bishop_n of_o rosse_n in_o his_o former_a book_n but_o better_a in_o a_o late_a treatise_n privily_o put_v

the_o impediment_n that_o be_v allege_v to_o bar_v his_o right_n be_v three_o the_o first_o general_n against_o his_o country_n and_o foreign_a birth_n the_o other_o two_o be_v particular_a against_o the_o two_o branch_n of_o his_o father_n and_o mother_n line_n birth_n 1._o objection_n of_o foreign_a birth_n the_o impediment_n by_o reason_n of_o his_o birth_n be_v ground_v upon_o a_o statute_n make_v anno_fw-la 25_o edwar._n 3._o which_o though_o by_o rosse_n and_o the_o rest_n it_o be_v very_o well_o answer_v yet_o two_o difficulty_n to_o such_o as_o understand_v not_o the_o statute_n seem_v to_o remain_v the_o first_o be_v that_o notwithstanding_o divers_a precedent_n may_v be_v bring_v of_o stranger_n who_o have_v obtain_v the_o crown_n before_o the_o make_n of_o the_o say_a statute_n yet_o none_o can_v be_v allege_v who_o since_o the_o make_n of_o the_o same_o have_v get_v it_o the_o other_o be_v that_o her_o majesty_n within_o these_o few_o year_n have_v take_v the_o opinion_n of_o some_o judge_n and_o sergeant_n at_o law_n concern_v the_o meaning_n of_o the_o word_n enfants_fw-fr du_fw-fr roy_fw-fr which_o as_o be_v say_v they_o expound_v to_o be_v no_o further_o extend_v then_o to_o the_o first_o degree_n for_o answer_v to_o the_o former_a the_o reason_n be_v plain_a why_o no_o stranger_n come_v to_o the_o crown_n since_o the_o make_n of_o this_o statute_n not_o because_o the_o statute_n be_v or_o can_v be_v any_o let_v but_o because_o there_o be_v no_o stranger_n since_o that_o time_n before_o the_o now_o king_n of_o scot_n that_o can_v make_v any_o claim_n to_o the_o crown_n to_o the_o second_o with_o reverence_n to_o the_o place_n of_o the_o say_a judge_n be_v it_o speak_v if_o their_o resolution_n be_v such_o the_o proviso_n or_o exception_n of_o enfants_fw-fr du_fw-fr roy_fw-fr in_o the_o first_o degree_n that_o be_v the_o king_n immediate_a child_n carry_v neither_o sense_n nor_o reason_n for_o they_o can_v not_o be_v say_v in_o any_o respect_n to_o be_v beget_v of_o parent_n out_o of_o the_o king_n allegiance_n be_v indeed_o beget_v of_o the_o king_n himself_o of_o who_o it_o be_v very_o absurd_a to_o say_v that_o he_o be_v under_o or_o out_o of_o allegiance_n but_o if_o you_o say_v they_o mean_v by_o the_o first_o degree_n the_o king_n son_n child_n or_o his_o nephew_n why_o i_o pray_v you_o shall_v they_o more_o be_v call_v enfants_fw-fr du_fw-fr roy_fw-fr than_o his_o nephew_n child_n or_o their_o nephew_n see_v there_o be_v the_o like_a reason_n for_o both_o now_o for_o full_a answer_n to_o this_o objection_n of_o his_o country_n i_o will_v set_v against_o this_o opinion_n of_o the_o judge_n and_o sergeant_n and_o all_o other_o private_a opinion_n or_o exposition_n of_o any_o man_n whatsoever_o a_o
