be_v lawful_a to_o submit_v to_o a_o prince_n that_o come_v in_o by_o conquest_n wherein_o he_o hold_v that_o the_o jewish_a church_n submit_v to_o alexander_n as_o come_v in_o by_o conquest_n he_o

seem_v there_o be_v some_o school-distinction_n between_o break_v a_o bond_n and_o dissolve_v a_o bond._n but_o one_o will_v think_v that_o when_o the_o bond_n be_v break_v by_o the_o prince_n it_o be_v dissolve_v by_o the_o prince_n and_o no_o doubt_n he_o mean_v so_o but_o think_v not_o fit_a to_o say_v so_o much_o but_o perhaps_o since_o he_o speak_v of_o a_o sovereign_a prince_n according_a to_o his_o notion_n of_o sovereignty_n he_o may_v believe_v that_o he_o may_v break_v his_o faith_n or_o promise_n and_o yet_o not_o break_v the_o law_n because_o his_o will_n be_v the_o law_n

himself_o disobey_v the_o public_a order_n and_o government_n and_o by_o his_o breach_n of_o those_o law_n by_o which_o he_o hold_v his_o prerogative_n and_o which_o be_v the_o bond_n of_o union_n between_o he_o and_o his_o subject_n may_v break_v or_o dissolve_v the_o bond_n and_o then_o he_o be_v no_o more_o their_o king_n and_o thus_o the_o people_n be_v decent_o let_v into_o the_o
