proximity_n of_o blood_n give_v such_o a_o indefeasible_a right_n or_o title_n to_o the_o crown_n that_o he_o who_o be_v next_o on_o the_o royal_a line_n whatever_o his_o natural_a or_o moral_a incapacity_n be_v can_v be_v bar_v from_o succeed_v to_o the_o throne_n which_o be_v direct_o contrary_a to_o a_o statute_n make_v in_o the_o 13_o of_o q._n eliz._n ch_n 1._o wherein_o it_o be_v affirm_v that_o the_o king_n lord_n and_o commons_o have_v right_a to_o limit_v and_o bind_v the_o crown_n of_o this_o realm_n and_o the_o descent_n inheritance_n and_o government_n thereof_o and_o it_o be_v by_o the_o say_a statute_n make_v treason_n during_o the_o life_n of_o that_o queen_n to_o hold_v affirm_v or_o maintain_v the_o contrary_a and_o after_o her_o decease_n forfeiture_n of_o

not_o as_o the_o doctor_n imagine_v a_o usurper_n but_o he_o be_v a_o lawful_a king_n he_o be_v one_o to_o who_o our_o allegiance_n be_v due_a as_o appear_v from_o a_o statute_n make_v in_o the_o 11_o of_o hen._n 7._o ch_n 1._o and_o allegiance_n be_v due_a to_o none_o but_o he_o who_o have_v a_o legal_a right_n for_o allegiance_n be_v obedience_n according_a to_o law_n and_o consequent_o must_v be_v pay_v to_o he_o to_o who_o the_o law_n direct_v we_o to_o pay_v it_o and_o to_o say_v that_o the_o law_n direct_v we_o to_o pay_v our_o obedience_n to_o one_o who_o have_v no_o legal_a right_o to_o it_o do_v not_o sound_a well_o 4._o it_o follow_v from_o hence_o that_o our_o allegiance_n be_v due_a to_o k._n william_n and_o q._n mary_n for_o it_o be_v due_a to_o a_o lawful_a king_n and_o it_o have_v be_v show_v that_o their_o majesty_n be_v lawful_a and_o rightful_a king_n and_o queen_n and_o this_o be_v the_o foundation_n of_o my_o allegiance_n ii_o i_o must_v now_o examine_v dr._n sherlook_n opinion_n concern_v this_o matter_n his_o notion_n be_v this_o 10._o page_n 10._o that_o all_o sovereign_a prince_n who_o be_v settle_v in_o their_o throne_n be_v place_v there_o by_o god_n and_o invest_v with_o his_o authority_n and_o therefore_o must_v be_v obey_v by_o all_o subject_n as_o the_o minister_n of_o god_n without_o inquire_v into_o their_o legal_a right_n and_o title_n to_o the_o throne_n and_o he_o tell_v we_o that_o the_o convocation_n have_v determine_v two_o great_a point_n whereon_o this_o whole_a controversy_n turn_v 1._o that_o those_o prince_n who_o have_v no_o legal_a right_n to_o their_o throne_n may_v yet_o have_v god_n authority_n 2._o that_o when_o they_o be_v thorough_o settle_v in_o their_o throne_n they_o be_v invest_v with_o god_n authority_n and_o must_v be_v reverence_v and_o obey_v by_o all_o who_o live_v within_o their_o territory_n and_o dominion_n as_o well_o priest_n as_o people_n this_o be_v his_o doctrine_n and_o this_o say_v he_o i_o will_v endeavour_v to_o prove_v from_o the_o authority_n of_o scripture_n and_o reason_n scripture_n and_o reason_n i_o be_o always_o ready_a to_o hear_v he_o that_o bring_v i_o a_o plain_a scripture_n proof_n command_v my_o assent_n and_o he_o that_o give_v i_o a_o good_a reason_n will_v easy_o persuade_v i_o and_o therefore_o though_o the_o venerable_a authority_n of_o a_o convocation_n stand_v in_o the_o front_n of_o his_o book_n yet_o i_o intend_v it_o shall_v lackey_n after_o his_o reason_n and_o his_o scripture_n proof_n sect_n i._o dr._n sherlock_n proof_n from_o
