therefore_o he_o be_v anoint_v if_o this_o observation_n hold_n as_o it_o be_v probable_a than_o it_o be_v not_o absolute_o necessary_a under_o the_o old_a testament_n and_o therefore_o far_o less_o under_o the_o new_a because_o it_o may_v be_v say_v that_o in_o our_o case_n there_o be_v a_o interruption_n by_o usurpation_n let_v it_o be_v consider_v that_o the_o anoint_n under_o the_o old_a

christ_n be_v now_o come_v all_o these_o ceremony_n cease_v and_o therefore_o the_o anoint_n of_o king_n ought_v not_o to_o be_v use_v in_o the_o new_a testament_n if_o it_o be_v say_v anoint_v of_o

king_n and_o emperor_n subject_a to_o themselves_o do_v swear_v they_o to_o the_o pope_n when_o they_o be_v anoint_v and_o yet_o the_o jewish_a priest_n do_v never_o swear_v king_n to_o themselves_o as_o for_o england_n although_o the_o pope_n be_v casten_z off_o yet_o the_o subjection_n of_o king_n to_o bishop_n be_v still_o retain_v for_o they_o anoint_a the_o king_n and_o swear_v he_o to_o

concerning_o the_o last_o i_o shall_v propound_v these_o three_o to_o your_o consideration_n 1._o a_o king_n abuse_v his_o power_n to_o the_o overthrow_n of_o religion_n law_n and_o liberty_n which_o be_v the_o very_a fundamental_n of_o this_o contract_n and_o covenant_n may_v be_v control_v and_o oppose_v and_o if_o he_o set_v himself_o to_o overthrow_v all_o these_o by_o arm_n than_o they_o
