>>17860452>I would know by what power I am called hither ... I would know by whatauthority, I mean lawful; there are many unlawful authorities in the world;
thieves and robbers by the high-ways ... Remember, I am your King, your
lawful King, and what sins you bring upon your heads, and the judgement of
God upon this land. Think well upon it, I say, think well upon it, before you go
further from one sin to a greater ... I have a trust committed to me by God, by
old and lawful descent, I will not betray it, to answer a new unlawful authority;
therefore resolve me that, and you shall hear more of me.
