A85293	The anarchy of a limited or mixed monarchy. Or, A succinct examination of the fundamentals of monarchy, both in this and other kingdoms, as well about the right of power in kings, as of the originall or naturall liberty of the people. A question never yet disputed, though most necessary in these times.	Filmer, Robert, Sir, d. 1653.	1648 (1648)	Wing F910; Thomason E436_4; ESTC R202028	34,573	45

perhaps_o i_o understand_v not_o though_o i_o think_v i_o do_v yet_o it_o serve_v my_o turn_n that_o he_o say_v that_o resistance_n ought_v to_o be_v make_v and_o every_o man_n must_v oppose_v or_o not_o oppose_v according_a as_o in_o conscience_n he_o can_v acquit_v or_o condemn_v the_o act_n of_o his_o governor_n for_o if_o it_o enable_v a_o man_n to_o resist_v and_o oppose_v his_o governor_n without_o question_n it_o be_v authorative_n and_o civil_a whereas_o he_o add_v that_o moral_a judgement_n be_v reside_v in_o reasonable_a creature_n and_o lawful_a for_o they_o to_o execute_v he_o seem_v to_o imply_v that_o authorative_n and_o civil_a judgement_n do_v not_o reside_v in_o reasonable_a creature_n nor_o can_v be_v lawful_o execute_v such_o a_o conclusion_n fit_v well_o with_o

authority_n reside_v not_o in_o reasonable_a creature_n nor_o can_v be_v lawful_o execute_v i_o pass_v from_o his_o absolute_a and_o limit_a monarchy_n to_o his_o division_n or_o partition_n for_o he_o allow_v no_o division_n of_o monarchy_n into_o simple_a and_o mix_v viz._n of_o a_o monarch_n the_o nobility_n and_o community_n where_o first_o observe_v a_o doubt_n of_o our_o author_n whether_o a_o firm_a 25._o p._n 25._o union_n can_v be_v in_o a_o mixture_n of_o equality_n he_o rather_o think_v there_o must_v be_v a_o priority_n of_o order_n in_o one_o of_o the_o three_o or_o else_o there_o can_v be_v no_o unity_n he_o must_v know_v that_o priority_n of_o order_n do_v not_o hinder_v but_o that_o there_o may_v be_v a_o equality_n of_o mixture_n if_o the_o share_n be_v equal_a for_o he_o that_o have_v the_o first_o share_n may_v have_v no_o more_o than_o the_o other_o so_o that_o if_o he_o will_v have_v a_o inequality_n of_o mixture_n a_o primity_n of_o share_n will_v not_o serve_v the_o turn_n the_o first_o share_n must_v be_v great_a or_o better_a than_o the_o other_o or_o else_o they_o will_v be_v equal_a and_o then_o he_o can_v call_v it_o a_o mix_a monarchy_n where_o only_o a_o primity_n of_o share_n in_o the_o supreme_a power_n be_v in_o one_o but_o by_o his_o own_o confession_n he_o may_v better_o call_v it_o a_o mix_a aristocracy_n or_o mix_v democracy_n than_o a_o mix_a monarchy_n since_o he_o tell_v we_o the_o house_n of_o parliament_n sure_o have_v two_o part_n 56._o p._n 56._o of_o the_o great_a legislative_a authority_n and_o if_o the_o king_n have_v but_o a_o three_o part_n sure_a their_o share_n be_v equal_a the_o first_o step_v our_o author_n make_v be_v this_o the_o sovereign_a power_n must_v be_v original_o in_o all_o three_o next_o he_o find_v that_o if_o there_o be_v a_o equality_n of_o share_n in_o three_o estate_n there_o can_v be_v no_o ground_n to_o denominate_v a_o monarch_n and_o then_o his_o mix_a monarch_n may_v be_v think_v but_o a_o empty_a title_n therefore_o in_o the_o three_o place_n he_o resolve_v we_o that_o to_o salve_v all_o a_o power_n must_v be_v seek_v out_o wherewith_o the_o monarch_n 25._o p._n 25._o must_v be_v invest_v which_o be_v not_o so_o great_a as_o to_o destroy_v the_o mixture_n nor_o so_o titular_a as_o to_o destroy_v the_o monarchy_n and_o therefore_o he_o conceive_v it_o may_v be_v in_o these_o particular_n first_o a_o monarch_n in_o a_o mix_a monarchy_n may_v be_v say_v to_o be_v a_o monarch_n as_o he_o conceive_v if_o he_o be_v the_o head_n &_o fountain_n of_o the_o power_n which_o govern_v 26._o p._n 26._o &_o execute_v the_o establish_a law_n that_o be_v a_o man_n may_v be_v a_o monarch_n though_o he_o do_v but_o give_v power_n to_o other_o to_o govern_v and_o execute_v the_o establish_a law_n thus_o he_o bring_v his_o monarch_n one_o step_n or_o peg_v low_a still_o than_o he_o be_v before_o at_o first_o he_o make_v we_o believe_v his_o monarch_n shall_v have_v the_o supreme_a power_n which_o be_v the_o legislative_a then_o he_o fall_v from_o that_o and_o tell_v we_o a_o limit_a monarch_n must_v govern_v according_a to_o law_n only_o thus_o he_o be_v bring_v from_o the_o legislative_a to_o the_o gubernative_a or_o executive_a power_n only_o nor_o do_v he_o stay_v here_o but_o be_v take_v a_o hole_n low_o for_o now_o he_o must_v not_o govern_v but_o he_o must_v constitute_v officer_n to_o govern_v by_o law_n if_o choose_v officer_n to_o govern_v be_v govern_v than_o our_o author_n will_v allow_v his_o monarch_n to_o be_v a_o governor_n not_o else_o and_o therefore_o he_o that_o divide_v supreme_a power_n into_o legislative_a and_o gubernative_a do_v now_o divide_v it_o into_o legislative_a and_o power_n of_o constitute_v officer_n for_o govern_v by_o law_n and_o this_o he_o say_v be_v leave_v to_o the_o monarch_n indeed_o you_o have_v leave_v he_o a_o fair_a portion_n of_o power_n but_o be_v we_o sure_a he_o may_v enjoy_v this_o it_o seem_v our_o author_n be_v not_o confident_a in_o this_o neither_o and_o some_o other_o do_v deny_v it_o he_o our_o author_n speak_v of_o the_o government_n of_o this_o kingdom_n say_v the_o choice_n of_o the_o officer_n 38._o p._n 38._o be_v entrust_v to_o the_o judgement_n of_o the_o monarch_n for_o aught_o i_o know_v he_o be_v not_o resolute_a in_o the_o point_n but_o for_o aught_o he_o know_v and_o for_o aught_o i_o know_v his_o monarch_n be_v but_o titular_a a_o empty_a title_n certain_a of_o no_o power_n at_o all_o the_o power_n of_o choose_v officer_n only_o be_v the_o base_a of_o all_o power_n aristotle_n as_o i_o remember_v say_v the_o common_a people_n be_v fit_a for_o nothing_o but_o to_o choose_v officer_n and_o to_o take_v account_n and_o indeed_o in_o all_o popular_a government_n the_o multitude_n perform_v this_o work_n and_o this_o work_n in_o a_o king_n put_v he_o below_o all_o his_o subject_n and_o make_v he_o the_o only_a

by_o that_o mean_n may_v sometime_o or_o other_o perhaps_o govern_v according_a to_o the_o law_n only_o the_o king_n can_v be_v no_o officer_n but_o to_o choose_v officer_n his_o subject_n may_v all_o govern_v but_o he_o may_v not_o next_o i_o can_v see_v how_o in_o true_a sense_n our_o author_n can_v say_v his_o monarch_n be_v the_o head_n and_o fountain_n of_o power_n since_o his_o doctrine_n be_v that_o in_o a_o limit_a monarchy_n the_o public_a society_n by_o original_a constitution_n confer_v on_o one_o man_n power_n be_v not_o then_o the_o public_a society_n the_o head_n and_o
