A54580 The happy future state of England, or, A discourse by way of a letter to the late Earl of Anglesey vindicating him from the reflections of an affidavit published by the House of Commons, ao. 1680, by occasion whereof observations are made concerning infamous witnesses : the said discourse likewise contains various political remarks and calculations referring to many parts of Christendom, with observations of the number of the people of England, and of its growth in populousness and trade, the vanity of the late fears and jealousies being shewn, the author doth on the grounds of nature predict the happy future state of the realm : at the end of the discourse there is a casuistical discussion of the obligation to the king, his heirs and successors, wherein many of the moral offices of absolution and unconditional loyalty are asserted : before the discourse is a large preface, giving an account of the whole work, with an index of the principal matters : also, The obligation resulting from the Oath of supremacy to assist and defend the preheminence or prerogative of the dispensative power belonging to the king ... Pett, Peter, Sir, 1630-1699. 1688 (1688) Wing P1883; ESTC R35105 603,568 476

a_o oath_n promissory_a contain_v in_o the_o forementioned_a clause_n of_o the_o oath_n of_o allegiance_n and_o supremacy_n as_o likewise_o by_o all_o other_o oath_n promissory_a the_o party_n swear_v be_v bind_v to_o endeavour_v for_o the_o future_a as_o much_o as_o in_o he_o lie_v by_o his_o deed_n to_o fulfil_v what_o he_o have_v swear_v in_o word_n and_o this_o sanderson_n in_o his_o second_o
