house_n to_o die_v there_o the_o king_n bid_v he_o pop_v they_o off_o with_o another_o answer_n and_o dare_v not_o be_v know_v that_o he_o have_v talk_v with_o the_o man_n of_o god_n he_o be_v

though_o a_o king_n intend_v never_o so_o sincere_o and_o of_o evil_a counsel_n in_o over-bearing_a he_o and_o circumvent_a he_o that_o he_o shall_v not_o be_v able_a to_o sound_v into_o the_o depth_n

question_n who_o must_v be_v the_o remover_n and_o taker_n away_o i_o go_v still_o with_o a_o clew_n of_o scripture_n in_o my_o hand_n i_o answer_v the_o king_n authority_n must_v do_v it_o i_o have_v scripture_n for_o it_o pro._n 20.8_o the_o king_n that_o sit_v in_o the_o throne_n of_o judgement_n scatter_v away_o the_o evil_a with_o his_o eye_n let_v i_o explain_v this_o text_n and_o the_o great_a knot_n be_v untie_v the_o king_n that_o sit_v etc._n etc._n by_o the_o king_n in_o the_o throne_n of_o judgement_n we_o be_v to_o understand_v not_o the_o pleasure_n and_o will_n of_o a_o king_n no_o nor_o the_o very_a strict_a person_n of_o a_o king_n but_o we_o be_v to_o understand_v the_o royal_a authority_n as_o it_o be_v exercise_v according_a to_o law_n therefore_o he_o say_v the_o king_n sit_v upon_o the_o throne_n that_o be_v the_o king_n in_o the_o court_n of_o judicature_n he_o scatter_v away_o the_o evil_a with_o his_o eye_n he_o affright_v and_o judge_v and_o remove_v wicked_a person_n and_o thing_n by_o look_v narrow_o after_o they_o so_o that_o in_o two_o word_n if_o you_o will_v know_v who_o must_v be_v the_o remover_n it_o be_v royal_a authority_n the_o king_n upon_o the_o throne_n of_o judgement_n that_o be_v the_o king_n in_o all_o his_o court_n of_o justice_n for_o concern_v the_o will_n of_o a_o prince_n none_o can_v be_v so_o

you_o will_v say_v if_o the_o king_n be_v in_o the_o parliament_n than_o there_o be_v the_o royal_a authority_n that_o shall_v take_v away_o the_o wicked_a from_o before_o the_o throne_n i_o answer_v
