of_o it_o we_o have_v from_o the_o saxon_n but_o be_v it_o what_o it_o will_v or_o whence_o it_o will_v it_o be_v without_o question_n that_o the_o first_o original_n of_o our_o king_n be_v that_o the_o people_n find_v it_o for_o their_o advantage_n to_o set_v one_o over_o they_o because_o of_o his_o wisdom_n valour_n and_o justice_n and_o therefore_o they_o give_v he_o several_a prerogative_n

the_o good_a of_o the_o nation_n if_o right_o employ_v but_o it_o will_v be_v a_o strange_a conclusion_n to_o suppose_v that_o the_o people_n oblige_v themselves_o to_o submit_v to_o the_o posterity_n of_o that_o man_n who_o they_o first_o choose_v for_o their_o king_n because_o of_o his_o extraordinary_a endowment_n let_v they_o be_v what_o they_o will_v and_o never_o so_o unfit_a for_o the_o

neither_o be_v it_o now_o the_o question_n but_o that_o which_o i_o speak_v for_o be_v to_o prove_v that_o the_o next_o of_o blood_n have_v not_o so_o absolute_a a_o inherent_a right_n to_o the_o

be_v dead_a the_o other_o be_v king_n for_o here_o the_o king_n never_o die_v if_o therefore_o the_o next_o of_o blood_n have_v so_o absolute_a a_o right_n the_o king_n be_v very_o unsafe_a for_o though_o the_o d._n be_v not_o incline_v to_o shorten_v his_o brother_n day_n nay_o though_o he_o be_v averse_a to_o it_o yet_o in_o obedience_n to_o the_o pope_n and_o his_o priest_n it_o must_v be_v do_v either_o by_o himself_o or_o some_o other_o hand_n and_o then_o how_o long_o we_o expect_v his_o majesty_n life_n if_o king_n be_v good_a man_n a_o absolute_a monarchy_n be_v the_o best_a government_n but_o we_o see_v that_o they_o be_v subject_a to_o the_o same_o infirmity_n with_o other_o man_n and_o therefore_o it_o be_v necessary_a to_o bound_v their_o power_n and_o by_o reason_n that_o they_o be_v flesh_n and_o blood_n and_o the_o nation_n be_v so_o apt_a to_o be_v bad_a by_o their_o example_n i_o believe_v be_v that_o wherefore_o god_n be_v averse_a to_o let_v the_o jew_n have_v a_o king_n till_o they_o have_v king_n they_o never_o revolt_v so_o whole_o from_o he_o when_o their_o king_n be_v good_a they_o be_v obedient_a to_o he_o but_o when_o they_o be_v idolatrous_a

enemy_n be_v dead_a when_o their_o king_n be_v behead_v and_o beside_o there_o be_v a_o very_a good_a argument_n that_o the_o dissenter_n hand_n do_v not_o give_v that_o stroke_n in_o regard_n they_o be_v chief_o instrumental_a in_o his_o majesty_n restauration_n while_o many_o who_o call_v themselves_o the_o loyal_a party_n sit_v still_o at_o home_n or_o if_o it_o be_v as_o some_o say_v that_o the_o dissenter_n do_v that_o fact_n yet_o we_o can_v justify_v the_o prosecute_n of_o they_o for_o that_o reason_n because_o it_o will_v be_v a_o breach_n upon_o the_o act_n of_o oblivion_n a_o law_n that_o be_v and_o be_v so_o necessary_a to_o settle_v the_o distraction_n of_o the_o nation_n and_o he_o who_o will_v destroy_v that_o which_o compose_v our_o difference_n do_v what_o in_o he_o lie_v to_o bring_v in_o confusion_n there_o be_v several_a law_n which_o be_v not_o temporary_a nor_o be_v they_o repeal_v by_o any_o other_o statute_n and_o yet_o be_v lay_v aside_o as_o useless_a because_o the_o reason_n of_o they_o be_v cease_v and_o law_n cease_v when_o the_o reason_n of_o they_o cease_v as_o our_o lawyer_n say_v and_o if_o so_o i_o can_v tell_v whether_o it_o be_v not_o a_o very_a good_a argument_n why_o the_o dissenter_n shall_v not_o be_v prosecute_v upon_o the_o 22d_o of_o this_o king_n see_v they_o can_v be_v charge_v to_o have_v preach_v unsound_a doctrine_n nor_o to_o be_v guilty_a of_o any_o contrivance_n against_o the_o government_n i_o wish_v the_o church_n of_o england_n stand_v upon_o a_o broad_a foundation_n and_o the_o prosecution_n of_o dissenter_n will_v increase_v the_o number_n of_o soul_n but_o true_o i_o have_v not_o hear_v that_o it_o have_v have_v that_o bless_a effect_n nay_o i_o doubt_v it_o have_v wrought_v the_o contrary_a way_n for_o the_o reason_n of_o it_o be_v plain_a because_o the_o english_a people_n be_v very_o inclinable_a to_o pity_v any_o that_o be_v in_o distress_n nay_o though_o they_o be_v punish_v just_o but_o when_o they_o see_v any_o in_o trouble_n on_o the_o account_n of_o some_o small_a difference_n in_o religion_n they_o not_o only_o pity_v they_o but_z after_o a_o while_n do_v favour_n their_o case_n and_o if_o the_o law_n have_v be_v put_v vigorous_o in_o execution_n against_o the_o papist_n before_o the_o discovery_n of_o the_o plot_n they_o will_v have_v find_v a_o great_a number_n who_o will_v have_v pity_v they_o though_o the_o very_a name_n of_o popery_n be_v detestful_a to_o the_o generality_n of_o the_o nation_n as_o no_o man_n know_v his_o own_o heart_n certain_o by_o reason_n of_o the_o deceitfulness_n of_o it_o so_o it_o be_v impossible_a for_o one_o man_n to_o know_v another_o thought_n and_o if_o any_o man_n that_o prosecute_v the_o dissenter_n do_v it_o for_o these_o reason_n that_o i_o have_v mention_v or_o for_o any_o other_o i_o hope_v he_o have_v a_o good_a end_n in_o it_o and_o act_n according_a to_o his_o conscience_n and_o then_o i_o wish_v he_o good_a success_n if_o i_o be_v a_o busy_a man_n in_o prosecute_a of_o people_n for_o nonconformity_n i_o will_v tell_v you_o in_o what_o method_n i_o will_v proceed_v but_o by_o this_o i_o do_v it_o pretend_v to_o prescribe_v any_o man_n what_o he_o shall_v do_v if_o i_o can_v govern_v myself_o a-right_a it_o be_v as_o much_o as_o i_o desire_v i_o do_v take_v myself_o to_o be_v very_o able_a to_o instruct_v other_o in_o the_o first_o place_n i_o will_v begin_v with_o the_o papist_n because_o they_o differ_v with_o we_o in_o doctrine_n and_o therefore_o we_o and_o they_o can_v never_o agree_v unless_o one_o side_n yield_v whole_o to_o the_o other_o i_o will_v inquire_v after_o the_o time_n and_o place_n of_o their_o meeting_n and_o watch_v they_o so_o narrow_o that_o they_o shall_v hardly_o escape_v i_o and_o i_o will_v make_v it_o my_o business_n to_o find_v out_o their_o priest_n that_o the_o law_n may_v pass_v upon_o they_o and_o this_o i_o will_v the_o rather_o do_v because_o i_o be_o persuade_v that_o many_o papist_n will_v live_v peaceable_o with_o we_o if_o there_o be_v a_o effectual_a law_n to_o keep_v out_o the_o priest_n and_o these_o incendiary_n i_o will_v leave_v they_o no_o rest_n for_o the_o soul_n of_o their_o foot_n but_o i_o will_v hunt_v they_o out_o of_o the_o country_n for_o by_o reason_n of_o not_o put_v the_o law_n in_o execution_n against_o the_o priest_n that_o bloody_a massacre_n happede_v in_o ireland_n in_o which_o there_o perish_v at_o least_o 200000_o protestant_n now_o when_o i_o have_v perfect_o subdue_v the_o papist_n that_o they_o may_v do_v we_o no_o hurt_n than_o i_o may_v be_v at_o leisure_n to_o fall_v upon_o other_o who_o do_v not_o conform_v to_o the_o church_n and_o if_o upon_o the_o information_n it_o do_v appear_v that_o they_o preach_v unsound_a doctrine_n or_o sedition_n i_o will_v not_o fail_v to_o rout_n their_o meeting_n but_o upon_o every_o information_n i_o will_v examine_v whether_o what_o be_v preach_v be_v unsound_a or_o seditious_a because_o the_o 22d_o of_o this_o king_n be_v make_v chief_o to_o prevent_v sedition_n and_o as_o to_o all_o other_o law_n i_o will_v not_o be_v want_v in_o my_o duty_n to_o serve_v the_o church_n only_o as_o to_o the_o 35th_o of_o queen_n elizabeth_n some_o doubt_n will_v remain_v with_o i_o first_o because_o the_o papist_n be_v not_o within_o that_o law_n and_o it_o be_v more_o severe_a than_o any_o law_n now_o in_o force_n against_o the_o papist_n second_o because_o i_o can_v find_v that_o any_o man_n have_v be_v punish_v by_o that_o law_n if_o any_o have_v the_o precedent_n be_v very_o few_o and_o that_o law_n be_v make_v upon_o a_o supposition_n of_o evil_a practice_n at_o their_o meeting_n as_o be_v that_o of_o the_o 22d_o of_o this_o king_n and_o i_o be_o very_o persuade_v that_o the_o reason_n why_o few_o or_o none_o have_v be_v punish_v by_o that_o law_n be_v because_o they_o have_v not_o be_v detect_v of_o any_o sedition_n or_o practice_n against_o the_o government_n but_o if_o i_o do_v put_v that_o law_n in_o execution_n i_o will_v do_v it_o against_o one_o as_o well_o as_o another_o though_o they_o make_v a_o great_a stir_n for_o the_o church_n it_o shall_v not_o excuse_v nay_o with_o i_o that_o shall_v be_v a_o aggravation_n of_o their_o offence_n and_o i_o doubt_v that_o there_o be_v a_o great_a many_o who_o

against_o this_o law_n of_o the_o 35th_o of_o queen_n elizabeth_n now_o by_o this_o method_n i_o apprehend_v i_o shall_v incur_v the_o lesser_a censure_n and_o that_o the_o world_n will_v be_v more_o

that_o they_o strive_v for_o without_o doubt_n the_o few_o that_o the_o temporal_a lord_n be_v the_o more_o considerable_a they_o be_v and_o why_o they_o shall_v strive_v to_o make_v themselves_o
