speaker_n sir_n i_o have_v hearken_v with_o all_o the_o attention_n i_o can_v to_o this_o address_n and_o do_v agree_v with_o the_o first_o part_n of_o it_o the_o danger_n and_o inconvenience_n arise_v from_o a_o popish_a successor_n be_v very_o obvious_a and_o that_o there_o will_v be_v no_o peace_n nor_o tranquillity_n in_o this_o nation_n for_o the_o present_a as_o long_o as_o there_o be_v a_o popish_a successor_n and_o that_o our_o religion_n will_v be_v lose_v if_o there_o shall_v be_v a_o popish_a king_n i_o be_o afraid_a be_v too_o true_a but_o yet_o i_o must_v crave_v leave_n to_o dissent_v from_o the_o opinion_n of_o those_o worthy_a member_n that_o have_v draw_v it_o as_o to_o the_o other_o part_n thereof_o i_o think_v it_o be_v not_o convenient_a at_o this_o time_n to_o press_v so_o hard_o for_o the_o exclusion_n bill_n because_o we_o know_v we_o can_v have_v it_o without_o a_o prorogative_n which_o for_o my_o part_n i_o fear_v at_o this_o time_n as_o much_o as_o i_o do_v a_o popish_a successor_n for_o i_o do_v believe_v if_o it_o shall_v happen_v that_o you_o will_v soon_o see_v the_o duke_n at_o whitehall_n than_o this_o assembly_n meet_v together_o again_o between_o these_o wall_n and_o therefore_o be_o not_o willing_a to_o give_v the_o popish_a party_n such_o a_o advantage_n to_o procure_v our_o dissolution_n lest_o they_o shall_v lay_v hold_n of_o it_o as_o i_o believe_v they_o will_v by_o which_o the_o protestant_a interest_n both_o abroad_o and_o at_o home_n will_v be_v ruin_v and_o as_o i_o can_v agree_v in_o this_o so_o neither_o in_o press_v the_o association_n bill_n for_o be_v it_o have_v not_o yet_o be_v bring_v into_o the_o house_n we_o do_v not_o well_o know_v what_o will_v be_v the_o purport_n of_o it_o and_o it_o be_v not_o proper_a that_o we_o shall_v ask_v of_o the_o king_n we_o know_v not_o what_o nor_o expect_v that_o he_o shall_v grant_v we_o what_o he_o can_v know_v nothing_o of_o and_o true_o sir_n i_o think_v that_o these_o thing_n about_o the_o judge_n deputy-lieutenant_n and_o justice_n of_o the_o peace_n be_v minute_n thing_n to_o be_v insist_v on_o at_o this_o time_n compare_v with_o other_o which_o may_v be_v demand_v queen_n elizabeth_n councillor_n never_o think_v her_o safe_a until_o the_o popish_a successor_n be_v enclose_v in_o a_o tower_n and_o i_o be_o afraid_a that_o you_o will_v never_o be_v safe_a until_o you_o take_v some_o such_o course_n that_o may_v bring_v thing_n to_o a_o issue_n when_o you_o have_v do_v that_o and_o banish_v all_o the_o considerable_a papist_n out_o of_o england_n i_o think_v we_o shall_v not_o be_v in_o so_o apparent_a danger_n as_o we_o now_o be_v and_o see_v this_o may_v probable_o be_v grant_v and_o the_o other_o bill_n not_o i_o humble_o move_v you_o to_o recommit_v the_o address_n that_o it_o may_v be_v better_o consider_v i_o know_v not_o how_o this_o may_v agree_v with_o the_o sense_n of_o the_o house_n but_o i_o shall_v always_o crave_v leave_n to_o speak_v in_o this_o place_n according_a to_o my_o conscience_n that_o so_o i_o may_v have_v peace_n within_o i_o but_o ready_o submit_v to_o better_a judgement_n sir_n w._n j._n mr._n speaker_n sir_n i_o be_o very_o glad_a that_o worthy_a member_n agree_v in_o the_o apprehension_n of_o the_o danger_n arise_v from_o a_o popish_a successor_n and_o in_o the_o necessity_n of_o the_o bill_n of_o exclusion_n and_o be_o very_o sorry_a i_o can_v agree_v with_o he_o in_o the_o rest_n of_o his_o discourse_n i_o can_v imagine_v without_o a_o high_a reflection_n upon_o his_o majesty_n that_o if_o he_o shall_v be_v persuade_v to_o prorogue_v the_o house_n for_o two_o or_o three_o day_n in_o order_n to_o pass_v the_o exclusion_n bill_n that_o he_o shall_v instead_o of_o permit_v we_o to_o meet_v again_o dissolve_v the_o parliament_n which_o be_v quite_o contrary_a to_o it_o i_o fear_v a_o prorogation_n without_o be_v intend_v for_o this_o but_o if_o once_o we_o can_v prevail_v with_o his_o majesty_n to_o do_v it_o for_o this_o end_n i_o shall_v not_o doubt_v the_o desire_a effect_n and_o in_o press_v the_o association_n bill_n we_o shall_v not_o press_v the_o king_n to_o grant_v we_o we_o know_v not_o what_o the_o word_n association_n may_v very_o well_o be_v understand_v and_o the_o end_n of_o it_o be_v declare_v to_o be_v for_o the_o security_n of_o his_o majesty_n person_n and_o the_o protestant_a religion_n and_o if_o when_o draw_v it_o shall_v be_v direct_v to_o other_o end_n i_o suppose_v this_o house_n will_v take_v care_n to_o mend_v it_o if_o not_o the_o king_n promise_n can_v bind_v no_o far_o than_o to_o pass_v a_o bill_n for_o those_o end_n but_o i_o do_v much_o admire_v to_o hear_v that_o the_o have_v of_o good_a judge_n justices_z and_o commander_n at_o sea_n and_o land_n be_v a_o trivial_a thing_n for_o i_o think_v that_o all_o other_o thing_n you_o desire_v without_o it_o will_v signify_v nothing_o as_o long_o as_o the_o law_n and_o militia_n of_o the_o nation_n be_v in_o the_o hand_n of_o person_n not_o well-affected_a to_o the_o protestant_a interest_n i_o be_o afraid_a we_o shall_v have_v no_o security_n against_o popery_n as_o to_o the_o new_a way_n that_o have_v be_v propose_v of_o bring_v matter_n relate_v to_o the_o popish_a successor_n to_o such_o a_o issue_n as_o that_o
the_o house_n a_o great_a deal_n of_o time_n and_o for_o my_o part_n i_o be_o not_o for_o enumerate_v many_o bill_n but_o shall_v be_v content_a to_o give_v money_n upon_o have_v the_o exclusion_n
