not_o give_v some_o authority_n and_o yet_o we_o find_v that_o he_o in_o the_o course_n of_o his_o providence_n do_v intrust_v less_o than_o sovereign_a power_n in_o the_o hand_n of_o those_o to_o who_o he_o give_v no_o authority_n as_o the_o power_n that_o every_o oppressor_n have_v be_v from_o god_n but_o god_n sure_o give_v he_o no_o authority_n to_o oppress_v iu._n but_o let_v we_o suppose_v now_o that_o whoever_o have_v sovereign_a power_n have_v also_o sovereign_a authority_n and_o must_v not_o be_v resist_v and_o then_o i_o will_v prove_v that_o the_o sovereign_a authority_n be_v always_o in_o the_o people_n for_o bare_a sovereign_a power_n be_v only_o sovereign_a force_n and_o sovereign_a force_n be_v the_o great_a natural_a strength_n and_o sure_o the_o great_a strength_n be_v in_o the_o people_n if_o the_o doctor_n will_v allow_v i_o that_o five_o or_o six_o million_o of_o man_n have_v more_o strength_n than_o one_o single_a man_n who_o be_v seat_v on_o the_o throne_n nay_o according_a to_o this_o principle_n sovereign_a authority_n can_v never_o be_v any_o where_o else_o but_o in_o the_o people_n because_o the_o people_n can_v part_v with_o their_o strength_n nor_o confer_v it_o on_o the_o supreme_a magistrate_n it_o be_v so_o their_o own_o that_o they_o can_v give_v it_o away_o but_o you_o will_v say_v they_o may_v promise_v that_o they_o will_v not_o use_v their_o natural_a strength_n otherwise_o than_o the_o supreme_a magistrate_n or_o than_o the_o law_n shall_v direct_v true_a but_o though_o they_o promise_v that_o they_o will_v not_o use_v their_o natural_a strength_n otherwise_o than_o the_o law_n direct_v yet_o still_o they_o retain_v it_o nor_o be_v they_o upon_o their_o make_n of_o such_o a_o promise_n weak_a than_o they_o be_v before_o there_o be_v not_o the_o least_o abatement_n of_o their_o natural_a strength_n so_o that_o if_o they_o have_v sovereign_a power_n before_o they_o make_v such_o a_o promise_n it_o follow_v that_o they_o have_v it_o still_o and_o therefore_o if_o as_o he_o say_v power_n be_v a_o certain_a sign_n to_o we_o that_o where_o god_n have_v place_v the_o power_n he_o have_v give_v the_o authority_n it_o be_v infallible_o true_a that_o the_o authority_n be_v in_o the_o people_n and_o can_v be_v no_o where_o else_o because_o there_o god_n have_v place_v the_o power_n hence_o i_o observe_v 1._o that_o the_o doctor_n be_v real_o no_o friend_n to_o crown_v head_n for_o he_o have_v unkinged_a they_o all_o he_o have_v take_v away_o from_o they_o their_o sovereign_a authority_n and_o give_v it_o to_o the_o people_n now_o suppose_v that_o a_o oppress_a people_n shall_v be_v sensible_a that_o they_o have_v the_o superior_a strength_n and_o shall_v be_v so_o cunning_a as_o from_o thence_o to_o conclude_v with_o the_o doctor_n that_o they_o have_v god_n authority_n to_o deliver_v themselves_o from_o the_o yoke_n of_o the_o oppressor_n i_o think_v according_a to_o his_o principle_n he_o ought_v to_o allow_v they_o have_v authority_n to_o free_v themselves_o from_o oppression_n because_o they_o have_v power_n supreme_a power_n or_o strength_n lodge_v in_o they_o and_o god_n never_o entrust_v sovereign_a power_n in_o any_o man_n or_o man_n hand_n to_o who_o he_o do_v not_o give_v sovereign_a authority_n beside_o it_o may_v be_v consider_v that_o though_o when_o they_o see_v a_o usurper_n on_o the_o throne_n they_o shall_v with_o the_o doctor_n conclude_v it_o to_o be_v god_n will_n that_o he_o shall_v reign_v for_o some_o time_n long_o or_o short_a as_o god_n please_v yet_o they_o be_v teach_v by_o the_o doctor_n that_o this_o do_v not_o prove_v it_o to_o be_v god_n will_v it_o shall_v be_v always_o so_o and_o therefore_o when_o they_o find_v they_o have_v strength_n to_o resist_v the_o tyrant_n and_o can_v agree_v together_o to_o make_v use_n of_o it_o they_o will_v present_o conclude_v that_o it_o be_v not_o god_n will_n that_o they_o shall_v be_v slave_n one_o week_n or_o day_n long_o and_o thus_o the_o doctor_n be_v tyrant_n be_v on_o a_o sudden_a tumble_v down_o from_o his_o royal_a throne_n by_o that_o very_a argument_n that_o he_o make_v use_v of_o to_o set_v he_o up_o 2._o that_o the_o doctor_n be_v fall_v out_o with_o the_o university_n of_o oxford_n who_o condemn_v this_o principle_n that_o all_o civil_a authority_n be_v derive_v original_o from_o the_o people_n and_o if_o the_o fire_n be_v still_o continue_v there_o his_o book_n will_v be_v in_o some_o danger_n nay_o he_o be_v all_o on_o a_o sudden_a fall_v out_o with_o himself_o and_o from_o be_v a_o mighty_a assertor_n of_o the_o prerogative_n and_o right_n of_o king_n be_v become_v a_o republican_n and_o who_o can_v doubt_v but_o for_o the_o future_a lex_fw-la rex_fw-la vindiciae_fw-la contra_fw-la tyrannos_fw-la milton_n defensio_fw-la populi_fw-la anglicani_n and_o suchlike_a book_n will_v be_v in_o great_a esteem_n with_o he_o but_o this_o be_v only_o a_o slip_n of_o the_o doctor_n he_o still_o mean_v well_o to_o king_n especial_o if_o they_o be_v such_o as_o he_o set_v up_o now_o england_n behold_v the_o king_n that_o doctor_n sherlock_n give_v thou_o he_o be_v a_o absolute_a lord_n and_o some_o will_v call_v he_o tyrant_n for_o v._o he_o that_o be_v a_o sovereign_a prince_n and_o have_v god_n authority_n but_o no_o legal_a right_n be_v a_o absolute_a and_o unlimited_a monarch_n and_o consequent_o such_o a_o king_n as_o england_n never_o yet_o own_a for_o it_o be_v law_n that_o set_v bound_n to_o regal_a power_n and_o therefore_o he_o that_o be_v our_o king_n but_o not_o by_o law_n be_v a_o absolute_a and_o unlimited_a monarch_n and_o i_o be_o sure_a whatever_o notion_n some_o man_n who_o understand_v little_a of_o our_o law_n have_v concern_v the_o boundless_a power_n and_o uncontrollable_a authority_n of_o king_n yet_o the_o law_n do_v real_o bind_v the_o regal_a power_n this_o the_o lawyer_n teach_v we_o this_o be_v the_o doctrine_n of_o westminster-hall_n and_o i_o think_v in_o a_o matter_n of_o this_o nature_n it_o be_v more_o reasonable_a to_o take_v the_o judgement_n of_o lawyer_n than_o of_o divine_n vi_o he_o that_o have_v god_n authority_n without_o any_o legal_a right_n can_v be_v limit_v by_o law_n for_o god_n authority_n can_v be_v limit_v by_o man_n and_o therefore_o if_o it_o be_v true_a that_o he_o who_o have_v no_o legal_a right_o to_o govern_v have_v god_n authority_n when_o he_o be_v settle_v in_o the_o throne_n than_o it_o follow_v that_o he_o have_v a_o authority_n that_o can_v be_v bound_v by_o humane_a law_n for_o a_o power_n that_o god_n give_v none_o can_v set_v bound_n to_o beside_o god_n and_o if_o he_o have_v make_v no_o limitation_n of_o the_o regal_a power_n as_o it_o be_v plain_a he_o have_v not_o just_a as_o plain_a as_o it_o be_v that_o he_o have_v say_v nothing_o about_o it_o than_o no_o limitation_n can_v be_v make_v such_o a_o king_n can_v yield_v that_o any_o limit_n shall_v be_v set_v to_o god_n authority_n which_o he_o be_v invest_v with_o unless_o he_o shall_v have_v a_o new_a authority_n from_o heaven_n impowr_v he_o to_o do_v so_o and_o the_o people_n can_v set_v bound_n to_o it_o neither_o with_o nor_o without_o his_o consent_n not_o without_o the_o king_n consent_n for_o that_o will_v be_v rebel_a against_o god_n vicegerent_n and_o trample_v on_o divine_a authority_n that_o will_v be_v no_o less_o than_o a_o rob_n of_o god_n a_o steal_n of_o god_n authority_n and_o the_o worst_a of_o sacrilege_n nor_o can_v they_o set_v bound_n to_o his_o power_n with_o his_o consent_n for_o if_o he_o can_v part_v with_o any_o of_o his_o power_n they_o can_v take_v it_o for_o that_o will_v be_v like_o receive_v of_o steal_v good_n beside_o it_o may_v be_v consider_v that_o sure_o god_n give_v a_o prince_n no_o more_o of_o his_o authority_n than_o be_v fit_a and_o necessary_a to_o serve_v the_o end_n of_o government_n and_o therefore_o he_o can_v part_v with_o any_o of_o it_o or_o if_o he_o shall_v he_o will_v not_o have_v enough_o leave_v he_o to_o serve_v the_o end_n of_o government_n at_o least_o he_o can_v not_o be_v sure_a that_o he_o shall_v have_v enough_o unless_o he_o be_v also_o sure_a of_o this_o that_o god_n at_o first_o give_v he_o more_o than_o enough_o which_o he_o can_v be_v certain_a of_o he_o may_v indeed_o know_v that_o he_o have_v more_o than_o he_o need_v for_o his_o present_a occasion_n but_o he_o do_v not_o know_v how_o soon_o the_o scene_n of_o affair_n may_v change_v and_o then_o all_o god_n
