A39852	A letter from a gentleman of quality in the country, to his friend, upon his being chosen a member to serve in the approaching Parliament, and desiring his advice being an argument relating to the point of succession to the Crown : shewing from Scripture, law, history, and reason, how improbable (if not impossible) it is to bar the next heir in the right line from the succession.

of_o this_o law_n and_o by_o virtue_n of_o this_o extravagant_a power_n in_o case_n his_o three_o child_n die_v without_o issue_n as_o afterward_o they_o do_v he_o bequeath_v the_o crown_n to_o the_o

his_o majesty_n that_o now_o be_v or_o his_o crown_n will_v draw_v argument_n from_o the_o three_o statute_n above_o mention_v to_o prove_v that_o the_o parliament_n of_o england_n may_v exclude_v
