Mr. Baxter, when at his Ordination he took the Oath of Supremacy ( which is Law) thus swore, I do declare in my Conscience, that the King's Highness is the See also Artic. of ou Church, 37 And Can. & 36 & 55 Only supreme Governour of this Realm and of all other his Dominions, as well in all Spiritual or Ecclesiastical things or Causes as Temporal: — And do promise from henceforth I shall bear true Allegiance to the King's Highness, his Heirs and Lawfull Successors, and to my power shall assist and defend all Iurisdictions, privileges, praeeminences and authorities granted or belonging to the King's Highness, his Heirs and Successors, or united and annexed to the Imperial Crown of this Realm. Whether Mr. Baxter hath been true to his Oath, let his words and deeds testifie. In this Oath, (Popish Pri••ciples, p. 4• … says our present Bishop of Lincoln) We swear that the King is the Only Supreme Governour: Supreme, and so none above him: and Only Supreme, and so none co-ordinate or equal to him. So that by our known Laws our King is Solo Deo minor, invested with such a Supremacy as excludes both Pope and People and all the World, God Almighty only excepted, from having any power, jurisdiction or authority over him. [ See his Proofs from the Laws p. 5. to 8. ] I add, Stat. 13 Car. 2. c. 1. It is enacted, that if any person shall maliciously and advisedly affirm, that both or either Houses of Parliament have a Legislative power without the King, he shall incur the penalty of a Fremunire mentioned in the Stat. of 16 Rich. 2. And it is also there declared, that all Ordinances of both or either Houses of Parliament for imposing of Oaths, Covenants or Engagements, Levying of Taxes, or Raising of Forces and Arms, to which the Royal Assent either in Person or by Commission was not expresly had or given, were in the very first creation and making, and still are, and so shall be taken to be null and void to all intents and purposes whatsoever. And Stat. 13. Car. 2. c. 6. & Stat. 14. c. 3. it is declared, that within all his Majestie's Realms and Dominions the sole Supreme Government, Command and Disposition of the Militia, and of all Forees by Sea and Land, and of all Forts and Places of strength is and ever was the undoubted Right of his Majesty, and his Royal Predecessors, Kings and Queens of England, and that both or either Houses of Parliament cannot nor ought to pretend to the same, nor can nor lawfully may raise or levy any War, Offensive or Defensive, against his Majesty, his Heirs or lawfull Successors. And Stat. 13. Car. 2. c. 1. & Stat. 14. c. 4. it is declared, that it is not lawfull upon Any pretence whatsoever to take Arms against the King: and that the position of taking Arms by His Authority against His Person, or against those that are Commissionated by Him, is Trayterous. And long before, 25. Edw. 3. Stat. 5. c. 2. it is declared High Treason to levy War against the King, or to adhere to his enemies within the Realm, giving them aid or comfort. |

In this Oath, (Popish Pri••ciples, p. 4• … Says our present Bishop of Lincoln) We swear that the King is the Only Supreme Governor: Supreme, and so none above him: and Only Supreme, and so none coordinate or equal to him. So that by our known Laws our King is Solo God minor, invested with such a Supremacy as excludes both Pope and People and all the World, God Almighty only excepted, from having any power, jurisdiction or Authority over him.

And Stat. 13. Car. 2. c. 1. & Stat. 14. c. 4. it is declared, that it is not lawful upon Any pretence whatsoever to take Arms against the King: and that the position of taking Arms by His authority against His Person, or against those that Are Commissionated by Him, is Traitorous.
