law_n he_o blame_v those_o that_o have_v not_o take_v the_o oath_n 2._o page_n 2._o because_o they_o go_v whole_o upon_o this_o principle_n that_o allegiance_n be_v due_a only_a to_o legal_a right_n and_o take_v away_o say_v he_o that_o and_o you_o remove_v all_o the_o difficulty_n they_o labour_v under_o and_o i_o suppose_v it_o be_v for_o their_o sake_n that_o he_o have_v as_o far_o as_o in_o he_o lay_v take_v away_o the_o legal_a right_n from_o their_o majesty_n that_o so_o he_o may_v remove_v all_o the_o difficulty_n which_o the_o non-swearer_n labour_v under_o but_o he_o seem_v not_o to_o care_v what_o become_v of_o their_o majesty_n nor_o what_o difficulty_n he_o throw_v they_o into_o and_o he_o blame_v likewise_o many_o of_o those_o that_o have_v write_v in_o defence_n of_o the_o new_a oath_n because_o they_o suppose_v that_o a_o legal_a right_n be_v necessary_a to_o make_v allegiance_n due_a 1._o page_n 1._o and_o have_v therefore_o endeavour_v to_o justify_v the_o legal_a right_n of_o their_o present_a majesty_n this_o it_o seem_v be_v become_v a_o crime_n to_o justify_v the_o legal_a right_n of_o their_o present_a majesty_n which_o yet_o if_o we_o do_v not_o justify_v we_o condemn_v ourselves_o but_o why_o shall_v we_o not_o justify_v the_o legal_a right_n of_o their_o present_a majesty_n why_o shall_v we_o for_o the_o sake_n of_o a_o few_o non-swearees_a betray_v our_o cause_n and_o tacit_o own_o that_o we_o believe_v king_n william_n and_o queen_n mary_n to_o be_v usurper_n he_o give_v two_o reason_n for_o this_o and_o i_o think_v he_o be_v a_o very_a bold_a man_n that_o will_v venture_v to_o give_v reason_n for_o so_o unreasonable_a a_o thing_n now_o his_o reason_n be_v one_a because_o it_o be_v unfit_a to_o dispute_v the_o right_n of_o prince_n second_o because_o it_o be_v unnecessary_a 1._o because_o it_o be_v unfit_a to_o dispute_v the_o right_n of_o prince_n but_o though_o it_o may_v not_o be_v fit_a to_o dispute_v the_o right_n of_o a_o prince_n 1._o page_n 1._o when_o settle_v on_o the_o throne_n yet_o it_o may_v have_v be_v fit_a to_o assert_v it_o though_o no_o government_n can_v permit_v it_o to_o be_v a_o question_n yet_o it_o may_v have_v be_v his_o declare_a opinion_n one_o will_v think_v that_o he_o out_o of_o gratitude_n to_o his_o royal_a patron_n shall_v have_v own_a he_o to_o be_v rightful_a king_n nay_o methinks_v his_o interest_n shall_v have_v prompt_v he_o to_o it_o for_o i_o must_v tell_v he_o there_o be_v this_o in_o the_o case_n which_o he_o little_a thought_n of_o that_o if_o k._n william_n have_v not_o a_o legal_a right_n to_o the_o crown_n dr._n w._n sherlock_n can_v have_v no_o legal_a right_n to_o the_o mastership_n of_o the_o temple_n for_o it_o be_v the_o law_n alone_o that_o invest_v king_n william_n with_o a_o power_n to_o bestow_v these_o preferment_n and_o therefore_o if_o the_o king_n be_v only_a king_n de_fw-fr facto_fw-la that_o be_v in_o his_o sense_n a_o usurper_n i_o know_v not_o how_o the_o doctor_n will_v be_v able_a to_o make_v out_o that_o he_o be_v any_o more_o than_o de_fw-mi facto_fw-la master_n of_o the_o temple_n without_o a_o legal_a right_n to_o his_o place_n a_o froward_a prince_n will_v hardly_o bear_v such_o ill_a treatment_n as_o this_o i_o be_o sure_a his_o legal_a king_n will_v not_o and_o a_o mild_a king_n do_v not_o deserve_v it_o from_o he_o i_o doubt_v not_o but_o he_o have_v do_v a_o great_a deal_n of_o mischief_n though_o i_o do_v not_o say_v he_o design_v it_o by_o refuse_v to_o take_v the_o oath_n and_o do_v it_o become_v he_o to_o publish_v such_o a_o book_n to_o the_o world_n and_o by_o implication_n declare_v to_o all_o his_o fellow_n subject_n that_o he_o for_o his_o part_n do_v not_o look_v upon_o king_n william_n and_o queen_n mary_n to_o who_o he_o have_v swear_v allegiance_n to_o be_v any_o more_o than_o a_o king_n and_o queen_n de_fw-fr facto_fw-la that_o be_v according_a to_o he_o usurper_n 2._o he_o say_v it_o be_v unnecessary_a to_o defend_v the_o legal_a right_n of_o king_n william_n and_o queen_n mary_n for_o who_o be_v it_o unnecessary_a for_o he_o it_o may_v be_v because_o he_o do_v not_o believe_v it_o but_o it_o be_v not_o unnecessary_a for_o those_o that_o own_o their_o legal_a right_n nay_o there_o be_v nothing_o more_o necessary_a than_o this_o and_o therefore_o two_o parliament_n this_o and_o the_o last_o have_v recognise_v their_o title_n but_o it_o seem_v those_o parliament_n do_v a_o very_a needless_a thing_n and_o want_v this_o doctor_n to_o give_v they_o better_o advice_n for_o he_o that_o can_v sit_v in_o his_o study_n and_o there_o make_v and_o unmake_v king_n at_o his_o pleasure_n may_v sure_o be_v fit_a to_o give_v counsel_n to_o parliament_n the_o doctor_n and_o i_o be_v in_o one_o thing_n agree_v that_o allegiance_n be_v due_a to_o king_n william_n and_o queen_n mary_n but_o we_o differ_v about_o the_o foundation_n and_o reason_n of_o our_o allegiance_n he_o think_v that_o we_o ought_v not_o to_o take_v the_o consideration_n of_o right_n into_o the_o settlement_n of_o government_n 18._o page_n 18._o for_o he_o say_v a_o prince_n may_v be_v settle_v in_o his_o throne_n without_o legal_a right_n and_o when_o he_o be_v so_o god_n have_v make_v he_o our_o king_n and_o require_v our_o obedience_n and_o i_o can_v be_v of_o his_o opinion_n he_o say_v that_o his_o allegiance_n may_v be_v due_a to_o one_o who_o have_v no_o legal_a right_o to_o govern_v he_o i_o say_v that_o i_o owe_v allegiance_n to_o none_o but_o he_o who_o have_v the_o legal_a right_n i_o shall_v therefore_o do_v these_o two_o thing_n 1._o i_o shall_v give_v my_o own_o opinion_n with_o the_o ground_n and_o reason_n of_o it_o 2._o i_o shall_v examine_v he_o i._o i_o shall_v give_v my_o opinion_n with_o the_o ground_n and_o reason_n of_o it_o which_o i_o shall_v do_v in_o these_o follow_a proposition_n 1._o allegiance_n be_v obedience_n according_a to_o law_n 2._o no_o man_n can_v have_v any_o right_n to_o my_o allegiance_n who_o be_v not_o my_o lawful_a king_n these_o proposition_n be_v i_o think_v in_o themselves_o evident_a and_o need_v no_o proof_n and_o therefore_o 3._o king_n william_n and_o queen_n mary_n be_v lawful_a and_o rightful_a king_n and_o queen_n of_o england_n and_o the_o dominion_n thereunto_o belong_v this_o appear_v plain_o from_o that_o declaration_n which_o the_o lord_n and_o commons_o assemble_v at_o westminster_n present_v to_o their_o highness_n the_o prince_n and_o princess_n of_o orange_n feb._n 13._o 1688._o wherein_o they_o set_v forth_o orange_n declaration_n of_o lord_n and_o commons_o present_v to_o the_o prince_n and_o princess_n of_o orange_n that_o king_n james_n by_o the_o assistance_n of_o divers_a evil_a

instance_n they_o give_v of_o his_o misgovernment_n and_o that_o he_o have_v abdicate_v the_o government_n and_o the_o throne_n be_v become_v vacant_a and_o then_o they_o assert_v the_o several_a right_n of_o the_o subject_a which_o the_o late_a king_n have_v notorious_o violate_v and_o last_o of_o all_o have_v a_o entire_a confidence_n that_o his_o highness_n the_o prince_n of_o orange_n will_v preserve_v they_o from_o the_o violation_n of_o their_o right_n and_o from_o all_o attempt_n upon_o their_o religion_n law_n and_o liberty_n they_o resolve_v that_o william_n and_o mary_n
