will_v deny_v he_o to_o have_v suffer_v what_o he_o endure_v but_o as_o to_o that_o conceit_n of_o you_o that_o this_o declaration_n have_v so_o much_o power_n with_o the_o printer_n that_o he_o dare_v not_o to_o alter_v the_o word_n queen_n into_o king_n even_o in_o the_o year_n 1642._o it_o seem_v to_o i_o so_o strange_a that_o i_o can_v imagine_v that_o you_o ever_o consider_v it_o when_o you_o write_v it_o you_o be_v so_o angry_a with_o the_o declaration_n that_o it_o must_v be_v guilty_a of_o every_o thing_n the_o article_n be_v several_a time_n print_v after_o the_o death_n of_o queen_n elizabeth_n and_o before_o the_o declaration_n of_o charles_n i._o and_o in_o they_o you_o will_v find_v the_o word_n queen_n not_o turn_v into_o the_o word_n king_n and_o i_o pray_v you_o what_o power_n hide_v the_o king_n declaration_n with_o the_o printer_n then_o they_o be_v print_v by_o robert_n norton_n 1612._o by_o bonham_n norton_n and_o john_n bill_n 1624._o both_o edition_n have_v the_o word_n as_o they_o be_v in_o the_o queen_n time_n and_o yet_o there_o be_v no_o declaration_n then_o to_o enforce_v they_o not_o to_o alter_v the_o word_n do_v you_o imagine_v that_o the_o printer_n have_v any_o power_n to_o alter_v the_o word_n of_o the_o article_n of_o the_o church_n if_o there_o be_v no_o declaration_n to_o preserve_v they_o entire_a assure_v yourself_o it_o be_v not_o the_o power_n of_o the_o king_n declaration_n but_o the_o duty_n of_o the_o printer_n which_o cause_v he_o not_o to_o vary_v from_o his_o copy_n from_o which_o none_o of_o the_o printer_n from_o die_v death_n of_o the_o queen_n do_v ever_o vary_v and_o that_o for_o the_o same_o cause_n i_o beseeeh_o you_o therefore_o sir_n acknowledge_v the_o declaration_n to_o be_v the_o king_n as_o mr._n burton_n do_v and_o say_v not_o that_o it_o be_v father_v upon_o that_o bless_a martyr_n which_o mr._n burton_n himself_o will_v not_o endure_v and_o when_o you_o have_v acknowledge_v that_o the_o declaration_n be_v the_o king_n acknowledge_v also_o that_o it_o be_v not_o the_o cause_n of_o the_o continuation_n of_o the_o word_n of_o the_o article_n because_o those_o word_n be_v constant_o continue_v without_o that_o declaration_n and_o which_o be_v more_o the_o declaration_n itself_o give_v not_o any_o command_n express_o for_o the_o word_n but_o only_o for_o the_o literal_a and_o grammatical_a sense_n and_o now_o the_o printer_n have_v do_v his_o part_n to_o print_v the_o queen_n majesty_n according_a to_o his_o copy_n the_o incumbent_n without_o any_o other_o act_n of_o parliament_n for_o alteration_n of_o those_o word_n or_o without_o a_o annul_n of_o the_o king_n declaration_n may_v read_v the_o king_n majesty_n and_o not_o thereby_o be_v in_o danger_n of_o any_o law_n and_o the_o reason_n be_v clear_a because_o the_o king_n majesty_n and_o the_o queen_n majesty_n speak_v of_o a_o queen_n regnant_a as_o the_o article_n speak_v be_v the_o same_o thing_n in_o the_o law_n for_o you_o may_v be_v please_v to_o take_v notice_n what_o be_v declare_v by_o the_o second_o parliament_n 1_o mariae_fw-la cap._n 1._o be_v it_o declare_v and_o enact_v by_o the_o

whereas_o the_o same_o statute_n make_v it_o treason_n to_o imagine_v the_o death_n of_o the_o king_n elder_a son_n and_o heir_n he_o say_v that_o the_o elder_a son_n and_o heir_n of_o a_o queen_n regnant_n be_v within_o this_o law_n be_v then_o the_o law_n make_v no_o distinction_n between_o a_o king_n and_o a_o queen_n regnant_n be_v it_o look_v not_o upon_o the_o sex_n which_o may_v be_v

in_o this_o particular_a therefore_o there_o need_v no_o reformation_n in_o this_o case_n because_o whatsoever_o assertion_n be_v set_v forth_o concern_v the_o sovereign_a power_n if_o it_o be_v

assert_v in_o the_o life_n time_n of_o a_o king_n under_o the_o title_n of_o a_o king_n it_o may_v be_v speak_v in_o the_o life_n of_o a_o queen_n under_o the_o title_n of_o a_o queen_n and_o that_o without_o fear_n of_o the_o breach_n of_o any_o law_n of_o the_o land_n or_o doctrine_n of_o the_o church_n assure_v yourself_o therefore_o that_o notwithstanding_o the_o act_n of_o the_o 13._o of_o
