command_n be_v not_o issue_v by_o the_o keeper_n surreptitious_o or_o of_o his_o own_o head_n and_o against_o the_o prince_n mind_n and_o law_n but_o so_o as_o the_o prince_n himself_z prudens_fw-la

only_o entangle_v he_o in_o a_o far_a absurdity_n as_o i_o have_v somewhere_o hint_v before_o and_o must_v since_o the_o doctor_n here_o lead_v i_o to_o it_o declare_v again_o for_o if_o god_n permission_n of_o secondary_a cause_n be_v god_n command_n than_o god_n command_v all_o the_o sin_n in_o the_o world_n the_o doctor_n therefore_o must_v be_v content_a to_o grant_v that_o god_n permission_n be_v no_o more_o than_o permission_n and_o not_o jumble_v permit_v and_o command_v together_o in_o his_o contradictious_a notion_n of_o command_v permissive_o for_o if_o he_o think_v to_o get_v off_o by_o call_v this_o permission_n a_o effectual_a permission_n his_o device_n will_v fail_v he_o see_v the_o sin_n which_o god_n permit_v be_v effectual_o permit_v if_o he_o will_v so_o speak_v else_o they_o can_v not_o be_v act_v upon_o his_o permission_n but_o this_o effectualness_n be_v not_o from_o any_o positive_a operation_n of_o god_n but_o of_o those_o the_o doctor_n term_v the_o secondary_a cause_n namely_o finner_n themselves_o now_o though_o god_n know_v that_o if_o he_o withdraw_v his_o restrain_v goodness_n those_o secondary_a cause_n will_v certain_o produce_v sinful_a effect_n yet_o he_o may_v in_o his_o justice_n and_o for_o reason_n know_v to_o himself_o withdraw_v that_o his_o restrain_v goodness_n nor_o can_v he_o therefore_o be_v charge_v to_o be_v a_o effectual_a concurrer_n to_o those_o sin_n see_v those_o second_o cause_n be_v suppose_v to_o be_v free_a agent_n and_o only_o bias_v to_o perverseness_n by_o their_o own_o prevail_a corruption_n in_o his_o 18_o sect._n he_o sum_v up_o what_o he_o have_v premise_v in_o five_o particular_n in_o the_o four_o whereof_o he_o fall_v upon_o a_o new_a shift_n to_o palliate_v the_o odiousness_n of_o
