A28440	King William and Queen Mary, conquerors, or, A discourse endeavouring to prove that Their Majesties have on their side, against the late king, the principal reasons that make conquest a good title shewing also how this is consistent with that declaration of Parliament, King James abdicated the government, &c. : written with an especial regard to such as have hitherto refused the oath, and yet incline to allow of the title of conquest, when consequent to a just war.	Blount, Charles, 1654-1693.	1693 (1693)	Wing B3309; ESTC R23388	40,332	68

i_o hope_v this_o effort_n of_o his_o power_n and_o goodness_n and_o wisdom_n be_v a_o argument_n that_o he_o intend_v still_o to_o preserve_v she_o notwithstanding_o the_o malice_n of_o her_o enemy_n

resistance_n to_o sovereign_a authority_n offer_v by_o her_o member_n will_v in_o the_o judgement_n of_o many_o rob_v she_o of_o that_o bright_a character_n of_o loyalty_n which_o her_o very_a enemy_n have_v not_o hitherto_o have_v forehead_n enough_o to_o deny_v she_o it_o be_v a_o very_a melancholic_a thought_n but_o when_o i_o further_o consider_v that_o her_o member_n be_v so_o full_o

case_n a_o good_a title_n and_o it_o be_v absolute_o necessary_a not_o only_o for_o the_o interest_n of_o these_o kingdom_n but_o also_o for_o that_o of_o europe_n and_o the_o protestant_a religion_n that_o they_o shall_v make_v use_n of_o their_o success_n then_o have_v they_o in_o so_o do_v act_v nothing_o but_o what_o become_v they_o and_o the_o assert_v of_o this_o since_o it_o be_v true_a be_v a_o necessary_a piece_n of_o gratitude_n to_o our_o glorious_a deliverer_n and_o i_o the_o rather_o do_v it_o because_o i_o observe_v that_o many_o of_o the_o tract_n that_o have_v be_v write_v on_o the_o behalf_n of_o the_o oath_n of_o allegiance_n be_v rather_o in_o desence_n of_o the_o subject_n submission_n and_o take_v of_o it_o than_o of_o their_o majesty_n title_n so_o that_o the_o author_n seem_v rather_o concern_v for_o their_o own_o than_o their_o majesty_n vindication_n and_o however_o glad_a they_o be_v of_o the_o unexpected_a deliverance_n that_o have_v be_v wrought_v for_o they_o yet_o be_v they_o over-regardless_a of_o the_o honour_n of_o those_o bless_a prince_n who_o have_v be_v in_o god_n hand_n the_o instrument_n of_o it_o 2._o the_o subject_n be_v justify_v

in_o they_o lie_v to_o weaken_v their_o hand_n and_o so_o to_o hinder_v their_o good_a purpose_n be_v guilty_a of_o a_o very_a great_a sin_n and_o i_o the_o rather_o say_v this_o because_o i_o be_o apt_a to_o think_v a_o great_a many_o honest_a man_n who_o be_v not_o very_o confident_a of_o the_o unlawfulness_n of_o the_o oath_n do_v judge_v it_o however_o best_o to_o refuse_v it_o because_o they_o believe_v they_o can_v sin_v in_o so_o do_v but_o may_v in_o take_v it_o whereas_o whoever_o well_o consider_v our_o present_a circumstance_n and_o the_o matter_n depend_v must_v grant_v that_o if_o it_o be_v lawful_a to_o swear_v not-swearing_a be_v a_o sin_n attend_v with_o much_o more_o dangerous_a consequence_n than_o be_v swear_v suppose_v it_o to_o be_v unlawful_a and_o a_o man_n err_a
