without_o the_o king_n consent_n viz._n a_o allowance_n of_o subject_n join_v in_o arm_n against_o their_o sovereign_n which_o they_o will_v warrant_v from_o the_o action_n of_o q_n elizabeth_n k._n james_n and_o our_o gracious_a sovereign_n here_o we_o must_v indeed_o ingenuous_o profess_v that_o we_o have_v not_o be_v sufficient_o exercise_v in_o passage_n of_o state_n to_o give_v a_o full_a

assistance_n of_o and_o the_o confederacy_n with_o the_o unite_a province_n we_o shall_v transcribe_v for_o satisfaction_n a_o part_n of_o a_o declaration_n of_o q._n elizabeth_n who_o first_o enter_v upon_o their_o assistance_n the_o declaration_n be_v entitle_v a_o declaration_n of_o the_o cause_n move_v the_o q._n of_o england_n to_o give_v aid_n to_o the_o defence_n of_o the_o people_n

good_a love_a sister_n to_o he_o and_o a_o natural_a good_a neighbour_n to_o his_o low_a country_n and_o people_n we_o have_v often_o and_o often_o again_o most_o friendly_o warn_v he_o that_o if_o he_o do_v not_o otherwise_o by_o his_o wisdom_n and_o princely_a clemency_n restrain_v the_o tyranny_n of_o his_o governor_n and_o cruelty_n of_o his_o man_n of_o war_n we_o fear_v that_o the_o people_n of_o his_o country_n shall_v be_v force_v for_o safety_n of_o their_o life_n and_o for_o continuance_n of_o their_o native_a country_n in_o their_o former_a state_n of_o their_o liberty_n to_o seek_v the_o protection_n of_o some_o other_o foreign_a lord_n or_o rather_o to_o yield_v themselves_o whole_o to_o the_o sovereignty_n of_o some_o mighty_a prince_n as_o by_o the_o ancient_a law_n of_o their_o country_n country_n and_o by_o special_a privilege_n grant_v by_o some_o of_o the_o lord_n and_o duke_n of_o the_o country_n to_o the_o people_n they_o do_v pretend_v and_o affirm_v that_o in_o case_n of_o such_o general_a injustice_n and_o upon_o such_o violent_a break_n of_o their_o privilege_n they_o be_v free_a from_o their_o former_a homage_n and_o at_o liberty_n to_o make_v choice_n of_o any_o other_o prince_n to_o be_v their_o prince_n and_o head_n the_o proof_n whereof_o by_o example_n past_a be_v to_o be_v see_v and_o read_v in_o the_o ancient_a history_n of_o divers_a alteration_n of_o the_o lord_n and_o lady_n of_o the_o country_n of_o brabant_n flanders_n holland_n and_o zealand_n and_o other_o country_n to_o they_o unite_a by_o the_o state_n and_o

spain_n interest_n be_v derive_v upon_o these_o principle_n it_o it_o evident_a that_o then_o the_o queen_n and_o king_n of_o england_n in_o join_v to_o the_o assistance_n of_o or_o confederacy_n with_o the_o low_a country_n have_v not_o join_v with_o subject_n in_o arm_n either_o against_o or_o without_o the_o consent_n of_o their_o true_a undoubted_a monarch_n 2._o as_o touch_v the_o assistance_n of_o the_o french_a protestant_n of_o rochel_n by_o our_o gracious_a sovereign_n that_o now_o be_v we_o shall_v only_o reply_v not_o insist_v upon_o the_o charter_n of_o rochel_n grant_v to_o they_o by_o lewis_n the_o 11._o that_o we_o be_v full_o satisfy_v that_o no_o argument_n can_v be_v draw_v from_o thence_o except_o by_o those_o who_o will_v raise_v a_o dispute_n of_o his_o majesty_n title_n and_o interest_n in_o the_o kingdom_n of_o france_n 3._o as_o for_o the_o scot_n we_o expect_v that_o all_o further_a mention_n of_o their_o former_a action_n shall_v have_v be_v prevent_v by_o the_o act_n of_o oblivion_n yet_o see_v these_o man_n have_v undertake_v to_o make_v a_o advantage_n against_o his_o sacred_a majesty_n even_o out_o of_o his_o act_n and_o expression_n of_o grace_n and_o clemency_n we_o answer_v that_o form_n of_o pacification_n and_o reconciliation_n be_v not_o to_o be_v interpret_v any_o further_a than_o to_o the_o reputation_n of_o the_o party_n to_o who_o the_o reconciliation_n be_v make_v you_o have_v not_o do_v so_o or_o so_o i.e._n you_o shall_v be_v to_o i_o as_o if_o you_o have_v not_o so_o as_o out_o of_o his_o majesty_n expression_n in_o the_o late_a pacification_n with_o the_o scot_n to_o conclude_v his_o approbation_n of_o the_o course_n then_o take_v by_o they_o or_o to_o take_v a_o warrant_n for_o their_o present_a undertake_n seem_v to_o be_v alike_o as_o if_o they_o shall_v conclude_v that_o it_o be_v lawful_a for_o other_o church_n to_o use_v st._n paul_n as_o the_o galathian_n have_v do_v by_o account_v he_o their_o enemy_n because_o by_o his_o own_o confession_n they_o have_v do_v he_o no_o injury_n and_o shall_v gather_v that_o out_o of_o his_o act_n of_o pacification_n with_o they_o gal._n 4._o 12._o brethren_n i_o beseech_v you_o be_v as_o i_o be_o i_o be_o as_o you_o be_v you_o have_v not_o injure_v i_o at_o all_o the_o sum_n of_o all_o be_v this_o the_o assembly_n of_o divine_n in_o their_o exhortation_n have_v neither_o conclude_v any_o thing_n positive_a for_o a_o lawfulness_n or_o necessity_n of_o take_v this_o covenant_n nor_o take_v away_o any_o of_o those_o scruple_n which_o they_o propound_v to_o themselves_o they_o have_v neither_o prove_v that_o bishop_n must_v or_o may_v be_v extirpate_v nor_o take_v off_o the_o scruple_n from_o the_o oath_n of_o canonical_a obedience_n they_o have_v neither_o clear_v the_o objection_n from_o the_o oath_n of_o allegiance_n and_o supremacy_n nor_o prove_v by_o any_o example_n record_v in_o scripture_n or_o by_o any_o undoubted_a

they_o be_v from_o prove_v that_o it_o be_v necessary_a or_o lawful_a to_o enter_v into_o this_o league_n the_o state_n of_o the_o question_n be_v such_o as_o we_o in_o the_o beginning_n have_v evince_v it_o to_o be_v so_o that_o shall_v we_o enter_v into_o this_o covenant_n it_o will_v be_v impossible_a to_o conclude_v our_o innocency_n therein_o from_o the_o innocency_n of_o mordecai_n and_o the_o lewis_n here_o mention_v out_o of_o esther_n 9_o their_o innocency_n be_v clear_a indeed_o but_o how_o will_v we_o be_v so_o in_o that_o they_o resist_v not_o the_o high_a power_n or_o the_o arm_n command_v by_o he_o otherwise_o then_o by_o fast_v and_o prayer_n until_o the_o king_n grant_v they_o leave_v to_o gather_v themselves_o together_o and_o to_o stand_v for_o their_o life_n which_o before_o they_o do_v not_o assume_v for_o no_o want_n of_o sufficient_a strength_n to_o have_v defend_v themselves_o as_o be_v usual_o in_o the_o like_a case_n object_v which_o be_v evident_a

it_o still_o true_a not_o only_o pretend_v as_o the_o exhortation_n have_v it_o that_o clergy_n man_n above_o all_o other_o may_v not_o covenant_v to_o extirpate_v church_n government_n by_o bishop_n both_o because_o of_o their_o oath_n as_o have_v be_v prove_v and_o simple_o consider_v the_o nature_n of_o the_o thing_n in_o respect_n of_o the_o reason_n already_o by_o we_o allege_v and_o because_o presbyter_n if_o here_o they_o err_v they_o err_v most_o dangerous_o and_o arrogant_o swear_v in_o effect_n to_o endeavour_v to_o extirpate_v all_o order_n of_o spiritual_a church_n governor_n above_o themselves_o to_o endure_v none_o such_o if_o they_o can_v help_v it_o superior_a to_o themselves_o the_o danger_n we_o have_v rather_o such_o shall_v hear_v from_o st._n cyprian_n
