therefore_o resist_v the_o power_n resist_v the_o ordinance_n of_o god_n and_o they_o that_o resist_v shall_v receive_v to_o themselves_o damnation_n for_o prince_n be_v not_o to_o be_v fear_v for_o

that_o do_v evil_a wherefore_o yet_o must_v be_v subject_a not_o because_o of_o wrath_n only_o but_o also_o for_o conscience_n sake_n for_o for_o this_o cause_n you_o pay_v also_o tribute_n for_o

be_v the_o will_n of_o god_n that_o with_o well_o do_v you_o may_v stop_v the_o mouth_n of_o ignorant_a and_o foolish_a man_n as_o free_a and_o not_o as_o have_v the_o liberty_n for_o a_o cloak_n of_o

not_o only_o if_o they_o be_v good_a and_o courteous_a but_o also_o though_o they_o be_v froward_a thus_o far_o out_o of_o saint_n peter_n by_o these_o two_o place_n of_o holy_a scripture_n it_o be_v most_o evident_a that_o king_n queen_n and_o other_o prince_n for_o he_o speak_v of_o authority_n and_o power_n be_v it_o in_o man_n or_o woman_n be_v ordain_v of_o god_n and_o to_o be_v honour_v and_o obey_v of_o their_o subject_n that_o such_o subject_n as_o be_v disobedient_a or_o rebellious_a against_o their_o prince_n disobey_v god_n and_o procure_v their_o own_o damnation_n that_o the_o
