do the saide homage and fealtie to the kinges of England Yet for all that the kinges of ScotlaÌ„de can not by any reason or lawe be called vsurpers And thus maye ye see gentle Reader by the opinion of all indifferent men and not led by affection that the realme of Scotlande hathe bene and yet ys within the allegeance and dominion of Englande And so your antecedent or firste proposition false And yet that makethe no prouf that the realme of FraÌ„ce likewise shoulde nowe be saide to be with in the allegiaÌ„ce of our Souereigne Ladie the Quene of England by reason of the manifeste and apparente difference before sheued But what yf your antecedent were trewe aÌ„d that we did agree bothe withe the saide Quene of Scottes aÌ„d her subiectes aÌ„d also withe you that Scotlande were owte of the allegiance of Englande Yet yt ys verie plaine that your coÌ„sequente and conclusion can not by anye meanes be trewe The causes vvhy the crowne caÌ„ not be comâ—sed with in the preteÌ„ded maxime And that priÌ„cipallie for three causes Wherof one ys for that neither the kiÌ„ge nor the crowne not beinge especiallie mentioned in the saide rule or preteÌ„ded maxime can be inteÌ„ded to be with in the meaninge of the same maxime as we haue before sufficientlie ê“ued by a greate nomber of other suche like generall rules and maximes of the lawes An other cause ys for that the crwne caÌ„ not be taken to be with in the wordes of the saide supposed maxime And that for two respectes one ys by cawse the rule doth onlye dishable aliens to demaunde any heritage with in the allegiance of Englande which rule can not be stretched to the demaunde of the crowne of Englande which ys not with in the allegiance of Englande but ys the verie allegiance yt self As for a like example Yt ys trevve that all the landes vvith in the kinges dominion are holden of the kinge either mediatlie or immediatelie and yet ys yt not trevve that the crovvne by vvhiche onlie the kinge hathe his dominion can be saide to be holden of the kinge For withoute the crowne there can be neither kinge nor allegiance And so longe as the crovvne restethe onlie in demaunde not beinge vested in any person with ovte the crownethere caÌ„ neither be Kinge nor allegiaÌ„ce there ys no allegiance at all So that the crovvne can not be saide by any meanes to be vvith in the allegiance of EnglaÌ„de And therfore not within the wordes of the saide rule or maxime The title of the crovvne ys also ovvte of the vvordes and meaninge of the same rule in any other respecte And that ys by cause that rule doth onlie dishable an alien to demaunde landes by disceÌ„te as heire for yt dothe not exteÌ„de vnto laÌ„des purchassed by an alien as vve haue before sufficientlie proued 40.
