their_o free_a consent_n they_o will_v do_v what_o they_o promise_v without_o swear_v and_o if_o they_o do_v not_o all_o the_o oath_n in_o the_o world_n will_v not_o make_v they_o do_v augustus_n for_o this_o expect_v no_o allegiance_n from_o his_o subject_n or_o be_v not_o the_o eastern_a monarch_n pretty_a absolute_a because_o the_o law_n in_o those_o nation_n do_v not_o require_v oath_n

must_v be_v oblige_v to_o a_o blind_a and_o absolute_a submission_n without_o employ_v their_o understanding_n in_o the_o case_n thus_o our_o author_n like_o a_o mighty_a man_n yet_o this_o sophism_n

i_o be_o tell_v that_o there_o be_v no_o new_a oath_n impose_v upon_o the_o protestant_n in_o ireland_n by_o k._n james_n and_o it_o be_v not_o very_o likely_a where_o as_o you_o have_v hear_v from_o

refuse_v to_o promise_v not_o to_o join_v with_o they_o or_o betray_v the_o garrison_n to_o they_o second_o this_o be_v a_o ill_a reason_n for_o what_o the_o author_n tell_v we_o before_o viz._n that_o k._n james_n have_v not_o the_o least_o reason_n to_o suspect_v or_o disarm_v the_o protestant_n and_o therefore_o this_o author_n call_v it_o perfect_a dragoon_n of_o they_o as_o bad_a as_o be_v do_v in_o france_n but_o this_o author_n tell_v his_o own_o reason_n why_o they_o will_v rather_o lie_v in_o jail_n than_o take_v this_o oath_n viz._n because_o there_o be_v not_o any_o law_n to_o enjoin_v it_o and_o they_o think_v this_o a_o violation_n of_o the_o law_n and_o therefore_o that_o they_o ought_v to_o suffer_v any_o hardship_n rather_o than_o comply_v with_o it_o for_o if_o you_o break_v one_o law_n you_o may_v break_v all_o etc._n etc._n now_o this_o be_v perfect_a wound_v the_o present_a government_n and_o condemn_v what_o the_o protestant_n in_o ireland_n even_o this_o author_n himself_o have_v do_v viz._n take_v a_o oath_n of_o fidelity_n to_o k._n william_n and_o q._n mary_n without_o any_o law_n to_o enjoin_v it_o that_o be_v before_o this_o late_a act_n of_o parliament_n for_o abrogate_a the_o old_a oath_n of_o allegiance_n and_o impose_v the_o new_a oath_n in_o ireland_n but_o here_o i_o must_v not_o be_v mistake_v for_o i_o be_o not_o of_o our_o
