A38407 Englands monarch, or, A conviction and refutation by the common law, of those false principles and insinuating flatteries of Albericus delivered by way of disputation, and after published, and dedicated to our dread soveraigne King James, in which he laboureth to prove by the civill law, our prince to be an absolute monarch and to have a free and arbitrary power over the lives and estates of his people : together with a generall confutation (and that grounded upon certaine principles taken by some of their owne profession) of all absolute monarchy. 1644 (1644) Wing E2997; ESTC R10980 14,794 18

that_o this_o absolute_a power_n of_o which_o he_o treat_v and_o which_o be_v confess_v to_o be_v at_o will_n must_v be_v take_v ta_fw-mi the_o will_n of_o a_o good_a man_n a_o very_a good_a

affirm_v the_o prince_n to_o be_v this_o good_a man_n as_o if_o it_o be_v a_o absolute_a and_o uncontrollable_a consequence_n that_o every_o prince_n must_v be_v a_o good_a man_n whereas_o the_o

every_o prince_n be_v a_o good_a man_n therefore_o every_o prince_n have_v this_o arbitrary_a power_n the_o false_a sillogisme_n and_o the_o most_o pure_a implicit_a contradiction_n that_o ever_o be_v for_o the_o major_a proposition_n clear_o imply_v that_o every_o prince_n be_v not_o good_a the_o minor_a conclude_v every_o one_o to_o be_v good_a but_o here_o you_o may_v see_v the_o senseless_a daub_v sophistry_n of_o these_o man_n who_o be_v resolve_v to_o put_v a_o good_a gloss_n upon_o the_o foul_a action_n and_o rather_o than_o their_o prince_n shall_v not_o be_v what_o they_o will_v have_v he_o they_o will_v most_o bold_o affirm_v to_o be_v that_o which_o he_o be_v not_o but_o woe_n be_v to_o you_o that_o call_v good_a evil_n or_o evil_a good_a i_o shall_v say_v no_o more_o but_o this_o happy_a england_n be_v greatness_n and_o goodness_n inseparable_a concomitant_n but_o he_o step_v a_o little_o neat_a to_o we_o and_o say_v though_o the_o prince_n have_v a_o plenitude_n of_o

the_o fullness_n of_o power_n be_v under_o stand_v of_o a_o good_a and_o laudable_a power_n &_o not_o a_o power_n to_o ill_a or_o injury_n what_o strange_a and_o unparalleled_a contradiction_n be_v these_o how_o can_v this_o stand_v with_o the_o former_a position_n that_o the_o king_n may_v do_v what_o he_o listen_v that_o his_o will_n be_v a_o sufficient_a reason_n and_o his_o reason_n a_o

power_n but_o king_n can_v do_v what_o they_o listen_v therefore_o king_n have_v no_o absolute_a power_n but_o here_o the_o minor_a preposition_n will_v be_v deny_v that_o king_n may_v do_v what_o they_o listen_v to_o this_o i_o answer_v with_o albericus_n that_o king_n can_v do_v wrong_a or_o injury_n therefore_o king_n can_v do_v what_o they_o listen_v and_o hence_o the_o consequence_n be_v very_o evident_a that_o king_n have_v no_o absolute_a power_n but_o he_o do_v yet_o approach_v near_o to_o we_o in_o deny_v the_o opinion_n of_o some_o of_o their_o own_o former_o deliver_v for_o he_o say_v 27._o pag._n 27._o that_o the_o prince_n by_o this_o plenitude_n or_o absolutenes_n of_o power_n can_v deprive_v his_o subject_n of_o their_o dominion_n or_o property_n sine_fw-la causa_fw-la

for_o he_o say_v that_o of_o the_o justness_n of_o this_o cause_n this_o absolute_a prince_n be_v the_o sole_a judge_n and_o arbitor_n now_o you_o know_v upon_o what_o foundation_n that_o principle_n
