The royall plea; or, a defence of the Kings supremacie: Wherein it is evidenced and maintained by argument, that to punish a King capitally, is absolutely against the word of God, and the established lawes of the land; and that to doe so great a wickednesse, will cast a great dishonour upon our nation, and the profession of Christianitie. By R.B. bach. of divinity.

Tyranny detected and the late revolution justify'd by the law of God, the law of nature, and the practice of all nations being a history of the late King James's reign and a discovery of his arts and actions for introducing popery and arbitrary power ... : wherein all the arguments against the revolution are fairly propounded and candidly answer'd ... / by Ric.
