not_o command_v the_o jew_n to_o obey_v all_o tyrant_n but_o the_o king_n of_o assyria_n alone_o now_o if_o you_o will_v conclude_v the_o form_n of_o a_o law_n from_o that_o which_o be_v command_v to_o be_v do_v to_o one_o single_a person_n first_o you_o be_v not_o ignorant_a for_o logic_n have_v teach_v you_o that_o what_o a_o great_a absurdity_n you_o will_v make_v next_o you_o will_v be_v in_o danger_n to_o be_v assault_v by_o the_o opposer_n of_o tyranny_n with_o the_o like_a weapon_n for_o you_o must_v either_o show_v what_o singular_a thing_n there_o be_v in_o that_o matter_n or_o propose_v it_o to_o be_v imitat_fw-la by_o all_o every_o where_o or_o if_o you_o can_v do_v this_o you_o must_v acknowledge_v that_o whatever_o be_v enjoin_v concern_v any_o one_o person_n by_o any_o special_a command_n of_o god_n it_o do_v alike_o belong_v to_o all_o if_o you_o shall_v once_o admit_v this_o which_o you_o must_v needs_o do_v it_o will_v be_v instant_o object_v that_o ahab_n be_v kill_v by_o god_n command_n and_o a_o reward_n be_v also_o promise_v and_o perform_v to_o he_o that_o shall_v kill_v he_o when_o ever_o therefore_o you_o betake_v yourself_o to_o that_o refuge_n you_o must_v obey_v all_o tyrant_n because_o god_n by_o his_o prophet_n do_v command_v his_o people_n to_o obey_v one_o tyrant_n it_o will_v be_v instant_o reply_v that_o all_o tyrant_n ought_v also_o to_o be_v kill_v because_o ahab_n at_o the_o command_n of_o god_n be_v kill_v by_o the_o captain_n of_o his_o host_n therefore_o i_o advise_v you_o to_o provide_v a_o more_o firm_a defence_n from_o scripture_n for_o tyrant_n or_o then_o lay_v the_o same_o aside_o at_o present_a you_o may_v have_v your_o recourse_n to_o the_o philosopher_n school_n m_o i_o shall_v indeed_o think_v upon_o it_o but_o in_o the_o mean_a time_n let_v we_o return_v from_o whence_o we_o have_v disgress_v what_o do_v you_o bring_v from_o scripture_n why_o tyrant_n may_v be_v lawful_o kill_v b_o first_o of_o all_o i_o proffer_n this_o that_o see_v it_o be_v express_o command_v to_o cut_v off_o wickedness_n and_o wicked_a man_n without_o any_o exception_n of_o rank_n or_o degree_n and_o yet_o in_o no_o place_n of_o sacred_a scripture_n be_v tyrant_n more_o spare_v than_o private_a person_n next_o that_o the_o definition_n of_o power_n deliver_v by_o paul_n do_v not_o whole_o belong_v to_o tyrant_n because_o they_o accommodat_fw-la not_o the_o strength_n of_o their_o authority_n for_o the_o benefit_n of_o the_o people_n but_o for_o fulfil_v their_o own_o lust_n further_o we_o shall_v diligent_o consider_v how_o much_o power_n paul_n do_v grant_v to_o bishop_n who_o function_n he_o do_v high_o and_o true_o praise_v as_o be_v some_o way_n like_o unto_o king_n as_o far_o as_o the_o nature_n of_o both_o their_o function_n can_v admit_v for_o bishop_n be_v physician_n of_o internal_a disease_n as_o king_n be_v physician_n of_o external_a distemper_n and_o yet_o he_o will_v neither_o of_o they_o to_o be_v free_a from_o or_o not_o liable_a to_o the_o jurisdiction_n of_o the_o other_o and_o even_o as_o bishop_n be_v subject_a to_o king_n in_o the_o exercise_n of_o their_o civil_a government_n so_o ought_v king_n tobey_v the_o spiritual_a admonition_n of_o bishop_n now_o albeit_o the_o amplitude_n and_o dignity_n of_o bishop_n be_v so_o great_a yet_o no_o law_n divine_a or_o humane_a do_v exeme_v they_o from_o the_o punishment_n of_o crime_n and_o to_o pass_v by_o other_o the_o very_a pope_n who_o be_v account_v the_o bishop_n of_o bishop_n who_o so_o exalt_v himself_o above_o all_o king_n that_o he_o will_v be_v account_v a_o certain_a god_n among_o man_n yet_o be_v he_o not_o exempt_v from_o the_o punishment_n of_o law_n no_o not_o by_o his_o own_o canonist_n a_o kind_n of_o man_n very_o devote_v to_o he_o for_o see_v they_o will_v think_v it_o absurd_a that_o god_n for_o they_o do_v not_o hesitat_fw-la to_o call_v he_o thus_o shall_v be_v obnoxious_a to_o man_n censure_n and_o think_v it_o unjust_a that_o the_o great_a crime_n and_o most_o filthy_a abomination_n shall_v pass_v unpunished_a in_o any_o and_o yet_o they_o have_v find_v out_o a_o way_n whereby_o crime_n may_v be_v punish_v and_o the_o pope_n account_v sacred_a &_o inviolable_a for_o the_o privilege_n of_o the_o pope_n be_v one_o thing_n and_o of_o that_o man_n who_o be_v pope_n be_v another_o say_v they_o and_o whilst_o they_o exeme_v the_o pope_n who_o they_o deny_v can_v err_v from_o the_o cognition_n of_o the_o law_n yet_o do_v they_o confess_v he_o to_o be_v a_o man_n obnoxious_a to_o vice_n and_o punishment_n of_o vice_n nor_o have_v they_o more_o subtle_o than_o severe_o declare_v their_o judgement_n herein_o it_o will_v be_v tedious_a to_o rehearse_v what_o pope_n to_o speak_v after_o their_o usual_a way_n what_o man_n personate_n pope_n who_o not_o only_o alive_a be_v force_v to_o renounce_v their_o popedom_n but_o be_v dead_a be_v pull_v out_o of_o their_o grave_n and_o throw_v

against_o he_o by_o a_o new_a kind_n of_o decree_n for_o they_o vent_v their_o fury_n he_o be_v by_o death_n take_v away_o against_o his_o near_a kinsfolk_n his_o statue_n and_o paint_a image_n or_o picture_n nor_o shall_v this_o interpretation_n seem_v more_o subtle_a whereby_o we_o separate_v the_o power_n from_o the_o person_n in_o power_n than_o philosophy_n do_v acknowledge_v and_o the_o ancient_a interpreter_n do_v opprove_v nor_o be_v the_o rude_a multitude_n and_o stranger_n to_o subtle_a dispute_v ignorant_a thereof_o for_o the_o mean_a tradesman_n take_v it_o for_o no_o blot_n upon_o their_o trade_n if_o a_o smith_n or_o baker_n be_v hang_v for_o robbery_n but_o be_v rather_o glad_a that_o their_o society_n be_v purge_v of_o such_o villain_n but_o if_o there_o be_v any_o of_o another_o mind_n i_o think_v it_o be_v to_o be_v fear_v that_o he_o seem_v to_o be_v rather_o grieve_v at_o those_o man_n punishment_n with_o who_o he_o be_v associate_v in_o their_o villainy_n than_o for_o the_o infamy_n of_o their_o society_n i_o be_o of_o the_o opinion_n if_o king_n will_v abandon_v the_o counsel_n of_o wicked_a man_n and_o flatterer_n and_o measure_v their_o own_o

but_o lay_v these_o thing_n aside_o a_o i_o will_v have_v you_o go_v on_o to_o the_o other_o head_n you_o propose_v b_o what_o head_n do_v you_o mean_v m_o namely_o in_o what_o time_n and_o to_o who_o

there_o be_v then_o a_o mutual_a paction_n betwixt_o the_o king_n and_o his_o subject_n m_o it_o seem_v so_o b_o do_v not_o he_o who_o first_o recede_v from_o what_o be_v covenant_v and_o do_v
