of_o pre-eminence_n and_o power_n this_o make_v former_a traitor_n in_o all_o their_o quarrel_n against_o their_o prince_n not_o to_o strike_v downright_o because_o god_n unto_o lawful_a king_n do_v ever_o impart_v such_o beam_n of_o his_o own_o glory_n as_o rebel_n never_o dare_v look_v straight_o upon_o they_o but_o ever_o turn_v their_o pretence_n against_o some_o about_o they_o this_o cause_v the_o judge_n sometime_o to_o deliver_v their_o opinion_n for_o matter_n in_o law_n upon_o two_o point_n the_o first_o that_o in_o case_n where_o a_o subject_n attempt_v to_o put_v himself_o into_o such_o strength_n as_o the_o king_n shall_v not_o be_v able_a to_o resist_v he_o
and_o to_o force_v and_o compel_v the_o king_n to_o govern_v otherwise_o then_o according_a to_o his_o own_o royal_a authority_n and_o direction_n it_o be_v manifest_a rebellion_n the_o second_o that_o in_o every_o rebellion_n the_o law_n intend_v as_o a_o consequent_a the_o compass_v the_o death_n and_o deprivation_n of_o the_o king_n as_o forego_v that_o the_o rebel_n will_v never_o suffer_v that_o king_n to_o live_v or_o reign_v which_o may_v punish_v or_o take_v revenge_n of_o his_o treason_n and_o this_o be_v not_o only_o the_o wisdom_n of_o the_o law_n of_o our_o own_o

experience_n which_o be_v the_o warranty_n of_o all_o reason_n for_o the_o first_o the_o civil_a law_n that_o say_v treason_n be_v nothing_o else_o but_o crimen_fw-la laesae_fw-la vel_fw-la dimminutae_fw-la majestatis_fw-la make_v every_o offence_n which_o abridge_v or_o hurt_v the_o power_n and_o authority_n of_o the_o prince_n as_o a_o insult_n or_o invade_v of_o the_o crown_n and_o extort_v the_o imperial_a sceptre_n and_o for_o common_a reason_n and_o experience_n they_o cry_v it_o be_v not_o possible_a that_o a_o subject_a shall_v once_o come_v to_o that_o height_n as_o to_o give_v law_n to_o his_o sovereign_n but_o what_o with_o terror_n of_o his_o own_o guilt_n and_o what_o with_o the_o insolency_n of_o the_o change_n he_o will_v never_o permit_v the_o king_n if_o he_o
