VVherein the phansyed state-principles supereminencing salutem populi above the Kings honour: and legitimating the erection of polarchies, the popular elections of kings and magistrates, and the authoritative and compulsive establishment of a national conformity in evangelical and Christian dutyes, rites, and ceremonies, are manifested to be groundlesse absurdities both in policy and divinity. / By Mich: Hudson.

that_o it_o be_v no_o rebellion_n but_o duty_n in_o the_o people_n mean_v the_o major_a part_n to_o resist_v or_o depose_v the_o king_n where_o the_o people_n judge_v it_o necessary_a in_o relation_n
