A56468 A conference about the next succession to the crown of England divided into two parts : the first containeth the discourse of a civil lawyer, how and in what manner propinquity of bloud is to be preferred : the second containeth the speech of a temporal lawyer about the particular titles of all such as do, or may, pretend (within England or without) to the next succession : whereunto is also added a new and perfect arbor and genealogy of the descents of all the kings and princes of England, from the Conquest to the present day, whereby each mans pretence is made more plain ... / published by R.

of_o the_o world_n be_v in_o those_o day_n of_o the_o force_n of_o coronation_n and_o admission_n of_o the_o commonwealth_n and_o how_o little_a propinquity_n of_o blood_n prevail_v without_o that_o
