The tenure of kings and magistrates: Proving, that it is lawfull, and hath been held so through all ages, for any, who have the power, to call to account a tyrant, or wicked king, and after due conviction, to depose, and put him to death; if the ordinary magistrate have neglected, or deny'd to doe it. And that they, who of late so much blame deposing, are the men that did it themselves. Published now the second time with some additions, and many testimonies also added out of the best & learnedst among Protestant divines asserting the position of this book. The author, J.M.
