A declaration of the succession of the crown imperial of England, by John Hales.

This declaration was written in favour of the pretensions of the house of Suffolk to the Crown on the demise of Q. Elizabeth, who was so displeased with it as to commit the author to the Tower. Sir Nich. Bacon is supposed to have had a hand in the discourse. Cons. Camden’s Elizabeth, Lond. 1675, p. 73 and Robert Parsons’s Treatise concerning the broken succession, Lond. 1655, p. 103.
