be_v agree_v by_o all_o lover_n of_o their_o country_n that_o popery_n must_v be_v keep_v from_o return_v and_o be_v national_a in_o this_o kingdom_n as_o well_o for_o what_o concern_v the_o honour_n and_o service_n of_o god_n as_o the_o welfare_n and_o liberty_n of_o the_o people_n and_o i_o conceive_v there_o be_v two_o way_n by_o which_o the_o parliament_n may_v endeavour_v to_o secure_v we_o against_o that_o danger_n the_o first_o by_o order_v such_o a_o change_n in_o the_o administration_n of_o our_o government_n that_o whoever_o be_v prince_n can_v never_o violate_v the_o law_n and_o then_o we_o may_v be_v very_o safe_a against_o popery_n our_o present_a law_n be_v effectual_a enough_o to_o keep_v it_o out_o and_o no_o new_a one_o be_v like_a to_o be_v make_v in_o parliament_n that_o may_v introduce_v it_o and_o this_o remedy_n will_v be_v at_o the_o same_o time_n advantageous_a to_o we_o against_o the_o tyranny_n and_o encroachment_n of_o a_o protestant_a successor_n so_o that_o we_o may_v call_v it_o a_o infallible_a remedy_n both_o against_o popery_n and_o arbitrary_a power_n the_o second_o way_n be_v by_o make_v a_o law_n to_o disable_v any_o papist_n by_o name_n or_o otherwise_o from_o inherit_v the_o crown_n and_o this_o be_v certain_o fallible_a that_o be_v may_v possible_o not_o take_v place_n as_o i_o shall_v show_v immediate_o and_o beside_o it_o be_v not_o improbable_a that_o a_o heir_n to_o this_o kingdom_n in_o future_a time_n may_v dissemble_v his_o religion_n till_o he_o be_v seat_v in_o the_o throne_n or_o possible_o be_v pervert_v to_o the_o roman_a faith_n after_o he_o be_v possess_v of_o it_o when_o it_o may_v be_v too_o late_o to_o limit_v his_o prerogative_n in_o parliament_n and_o to_o oppose_v he_o without_o that_o will_v i_o fear_v be_v judge_v treason_n doct._n but_o sir_n will_v you_o have_v the_o parliament_n do_v nothing_o as_o thing_n stand_v to_o provide_v at_o least_o as_o much_o as_o in_o they_o lie_v that_o whoever_o succeed_v be_v a_o good_a protestant_n eng._n gent._n yes_o i_o think_v it_o best_o in_o the_o first_o place_n to_o offer_v to_o his_o majesty_n the_o true_a remedy_n &_o if_o they_o find_v he_o averse_a to_o that_o then_o to_o pursue_v the_o other_o which_o concern_v the_o succession_n because_o the_o people_n who_o be_v their_o principal_n and_o give_v they_o their_o power_n do_v expect_v something_o extraordinary_a from_o they_o at_o this_o time_n and_o the_o most_o of_o they_o believe_v this_o last_o the_o only_a present_a mean_n to_o save_v they_o from_o popery_n which_o they_o judge_v and_o very_o just_o will_v bring_v in_o with_o it_o a_o change_n of_o government_n but_o then_o i_o suppose_v they_o may_v be_v encourage_v to_o propose_v in_o the_o first_o place_n the_o true_a cure_n not_o only_o because_o that_o be_v infallible_a as_o have_v be_v prove_v but_o likewise_o because_o his_o majesty_n in_o probability_n will_v soon_o consent_v to_o any_o reasonable_a demand_v towards_o the_o reform_n of_o the_o government_n and_o to_o the_o secure_v we_o that_o way_n than_o to_o concur_v to_o the_o deprive_v his_o only_a brother_n of_o the_o crown_n and_o possible_o this_o latter_a as_o i_o say_v before_o may_v be_v the_o only_a way_n the_o parliament_n can_v hope_v will_v prove_v effectual_a for_o if_o you_o please_v to_o look_v but_o a_o age_n back_o into_o our_o story_n you_o will_v find_v that_o henry_n the_o eight_o do_v procure_v a_o act_n of_o parliament_n which_o give_v he_o power_n to_o dispose_v of_o the_o crown_n by_o his_o last_o will_n
