his_o throne_n his_o abdication_n be_v as_o perfect_o his_o own_o act_n as_o his_o misgovernment_n be_v and_o then_o subject_n may_v very_o innocent_o take_v the_o advantage_n which_o without_o their_o fault_n he_o have_v put_v into_o their_o hand_n to_o deliver_v themselves_o from_o fear_n and_o slavery_n the_o prince_n of_o orange_n now_o our_o gracious_a sovereign_n have_v very_o just_a

be_v in_o a_o ill_a condition_n for_o it_o may_v be_v with_o the_o late_a to_o put_v in_o his_o claim_n when_o another_o be_v step_v into_o the_o throne_n before_o he_o it_o be_v no_o new_a thing_n for_o the_o parliament_n of_o england_n to_o settle_v the_o succession_n to_o the_o crown_n while_o the_o king_n be_v live_v and_o to_o make_v all_o legal_a provision_n to_o secure_v the_o

into_o this_o fright_a and_o if_o he_o have_v not_o do_v it_o he_o have_v in_o some_o degree_n desert_v his_o right_n as_o king_n james_n have_v now_o desert_v his_o throne_n as_o for_o the_o

and_o what_o be_v the_o fault_n of_o this_o the_o most_o passive_a man_n have_v always_o declare_v that_o they_o be_v not_o bind_v actual_o to_o serve_v and_o defend_v the_o king_n in_o his_o illegal_a oppression_n or_o in_o his_o usurpation_n upon_o the_o law_n and_o liberty_n and_o religion_n of_o their_o country_n for_o no_o man_n can_v be_v bind_v by_o law_n to_o fight_v for_o the_o

hard_a to_o fight_v for_o one_o law_n against_o all_o other_o law_n to_o fight_v for_o a_o king_n to_o make_v ourselves_o and_o all_o his_o other_o subject_n slave_n the_o prince_n of_o orange_n come_v with_o a_o army_n into_o england_n to_o demand_v a_o free_a parliament_n to_o redress_v the_o miscarriage_n of_o government_n to_o secure_v the_o succession_n our_o liberty_n and_o religion_n which_o be_v beyond_o denial_n in_o danger_n what_o now_o shall_v the_o subject_n of_o england_n do_v shall_v they_o fight_v for_o king_n james_n against_o the_o prince_n what_o have_v that_o be_v but_o to_o fight_v against_o a_o free_a parliament_n our_o law_n and_o our_o religion_n those_o protestant_n who_o be_v now_o the_o most_o zealous_a assertor_n of_o the_o late_a king_n be_v right_a do_v at_o that_o time_n for_o these_o reason_n excuse_v themselves_o from_o the_o obligation_n of_o fight_v for_o he_o and_o yet_o engish_v subject_n can_v be_v charge_v with_o deny_v to_o assist_v their_o king_n against_o the_o prince_n of_o orange_n for_o they_o be_v never_o require_v to_o do_v it_o there_o be_v no_o new_a commission_n grant_v they_o without_o which_o some_o be_v of_o

such_o a_o difficult_a juncture_n as_o that_o be_v when_o there_o be_v two_o army_n in_o the_o bowel_n of_o the_o kingdom_n will_v not_o justify_v those_o gentleman_n who_o take_v arm_n and_o stand_v upon_o their_o own_o defence_n and_o that_o they_o declare_v to_o stand_v by_o the_o prince_n of_o orange_n till_o all_o miscarriage_n shall_v be_v redress_v by_o a_o free_a parliament_n seem_v to_o i_o little_o more_o than_o what_o those_o bishop_n themselves_o do_v who_o now_o refuse_v the_o oath_n for_o when_o they_o be_v require_v to_o do_v it_o they_o will_v not_o sign_v a_o abhorrence_n of_o the_o prince_n undertake_n and_o at_o guildhall_n they_o fign_v the_o lord_n address_v to_o the_o prince_n wherein_o they_o promise_v he_o their_o assistance_n to_o procure_v a_o free_a parliament_n and_o if_o neither_o the_o prince_n nor_o the_o subject_n of_o england_n be_v to_o be_v blame_v for_o what_o they_o do_v it_o be_v easy_a to_o guess_v where_o the_o whole_a blame_v must_v lie_v and_o if_o he_o wilful_o bring_v this_o necessity_n upon_o himself_o of_o quit_v his_o kingdom_n and_o rather_o choose_v to_o leave_v his_o throne_n than_o satisfy_v the_o just_a demand_n of_o the_o prince_n and_o of_o his_o own_o subject_n he_o leave_v his_o throne_n for_o such_o reason_n as_o make_v it_o just_a and_o necessary_a for_o his_o subject_n to_o fill_v it_o if_o these_o principle_n be_v true_a they_o furnish_v we_o with_o plain_a and_o easy_a answer_n to_o all_o the_o difficulty_n relate_v to_o our_o present_a settlement_n which_o i_o shall_v brief_o observe_v as_o the_o sum_n of_o this_o whole_a discourse_n 1._o as_o first_o whether_o the_o late_a king_n james_n be_v still_o of_o right_a the_o king_n of_o england_n or_o of_o right_a aught_o to_o be_v so_o the_o only_a argument_n to_o prove_v king_n james_n remain_v right_a be_v that_o he_o be_v the_o rightful_a heir_n to_o the_o crown_n and_o be_v legal_o and_o rightful_o possess_v of_o it_o and_o therefore_o be_v rightful_a king_n still_o or_o at_o least_o of_o right_a aught_o to_o be_v king_n now_o from_o what_o i_o have_v already_o say_v and_o i_o hope_v prove_v the_o answer_n to_o this_o be_v plain_a 1._o that_o as_o to_o his_o right_n of_o succession_n the_o subject_n of_o england_n own_v it_o and_o actual_o give_v he_o the_o crown_n with_o all_o the_o accustom_a rite_n and_o ceremony_n of_o coronation_n and_o therefore_o there_o be_v no_o dispute_n about_o that_o but_o the_o question_n be_v whether_o a_o king_n who_o lose_v or_o give_v away_o or_o desert_n his_o crown_n and_o fall_v from_o the_o regal_a power_n have_v a_o new_a right_n of_o succession_n when_o the_o throne_n be_v again_o fill_v that_o be_v whether_o if_o he_o part_v with_o his_o crown_n he_o can_v be_v heir_n and_o successor_n to_o himself_o and_o by_o the_o right_n of_o inheritance_n challenge_v his_o abdicated_a throne_n again_o 2._o that_o he_o be_v once_o a_o rightful_a king_n do_v not_o prove_v that_o he_o be_v king_n still_o for_o legal_a right_n to_o a_o relation_n and_o the_o legal_a relation_n may_v be_v separate_v he_o may_v be_v no_o king_n who_o have_v once_o a_o legal_a right_n and_o a_o legal_a possession_n of_o the_o throne_n and_o he_o may_v be_v the_o legal_a king_n or_o one_o who_o the_o law_n own_v to_o be_v king_n who_o have_v no_o immediate_a antecedent_n right_o to_o the_o throne_n for_o though_o in_o relation_n which_o be_v found_v in_o nature_n the_o right_a and_o the_o relation_n can_v be_v separate_v yet_o in_o legal_a relation_n they_o may_v and_o if_o he_o who_o have_v or_o have_v a_o legal_a right_n to_o the_o crown_n may_v be_v no_o king_n subject_n can_v owe_v he_o no_o allegiance_n for_o allegiance_n be_v due_a only_a to_o the_o king_n 3._o that_o he_o be_v once_o a_o rightful_a king_n do_v not_o prove_v that_o he_o have_v any_o right_a to_o be_v king_n now_o
