A35931	The royalist's defence vindicating the King's proceedings in the late warre made against him, clearly discovering, how and by what impostures the incendiaries of these distractions have subverted the knowne law of the land, the Protestant religion, and reduced the people to an unparallel'd slavery.

to_o compel_v submission_n thereunto_o wherein_o the_o power_n of_o the_o sword_n that_o be_v the_o militia_n be_v as_o necessary_a as_o the_o law_n itself_o for_o as_o the_o people_n can_v be_v

even_o by_o reason_n itself_o that_o he_o who_o have_v the_o sovereign_a power_n of_o government_n have_v as_o a_o incident_a inseparable_a unto_o it_o the_o power_n of_o the_o sword_n and_o by_o our_o law_n the_o king_n have_v the_o sovereignty_n from_o he_o as_o before_o appear_v be_v due_a to_o the_o people_n protection_n of_o their_o person_n and_o estate_n that_o by_o 7._o the_o law_n of_o england_n be_v employ_v in_o the_o word_n king_n and_o so_o the_o word_n subject_a imply_v a_o duty_n in_o the_o people_n to_o assist_v their_o king_n and_o as_o this_o duty_n be_v reciprocal_a
