affirm_v i_o will_v answer_v this_o question_n by_o divers_a position_n pos_fw-la 1_o first_o the_o monarch_n work_v according_a to_o his_o power_n not_o exceed_v the_o authority_n which_o god_n and_o the_o law_n have_v confer_v on_o he_o be_v no_o way_n to_o be_v oppose_v either_o by_o any_o or_o all_o his_o subject_n but_o in_o conscience_n to_o god_n ordinance_n obey_v this_o be_v grant_v on_o all_o side_n second_o if_o the_o will_n and_o command_v of_o the_o monarch_n exceed_v pos_n 2_o the_o limit_n of_o the_o law_n it_o ought_v for_o the_o avoidance_n of_o scandal_n and_o offence_n be_v submit_v to_o so_o it_o be_v not_o contrary_a to_o god_n law_n nor_o bring_v with_o it_o such_o a_o evil_a to_o ourselves_o or_o the_o public_a that_o we_o can_v be_v accessary_a to_o it_o by_o obey_v this_o also_o will_v find_v no_o opposition_n disobedience_n in_o light_a case_n in_o which_o we_o be_v not_o bind_v make_v a_o appearance_n of_o slight_v the_o power_n and_o be_v a_o disrespect_n to_o the_o person_n of_o the_o magistrate_n therefore_o christ_n to_o avoid_v such_o offence_n will_v pay_v tribute_n though_o he_o tell_v peter_n he_o be_v free_a and_o need_v not_o have_v do_v it_o three_o if_o he_o command_v a_o thing_n which_o the_o law_n give_v pos_n 3_o him_z no_o authority_n to_o command_v and_o it_o be_v such_o as_o will_v be_v inconvenient_a to_o obey_v in_o this_o case_n obedience_n may_v lawful_o be_v deny_v this_o also_o find_v allowance_n from_o they_o which_o stand_v most_o for_o royal_a power_n doctor_n ferne_n in_o his_o preface_n acknowledge_v obedience_n to_o be_v limit_v and_o circumscribe_v by_o the_o establish_a law_n of_o the_o land_n and_o according_o to_o be_v yield_v or_o deny_v and_o sect._n 1._o say_n he_o we_o may_v and_o aught_o to_o deny_v obedience_n to_o such_o command_n of_o the_o prince_n as_o be_v unlawful_a by_o the_o law_n of_o god_n yea_o by_o the_o establish_a law_n of_o the_o land_n here_o he_o say_v more_o than_o we_o say_v yea_o more_o than_o shall_v be_v say_v as_o appear_v in_o the_o second_o position_n it_o be_v not_o universal_o true_a that_o we_o ought_v four_o if_o he_o exceed_v the_o limit_n of_o the_o law_n and_o proceed_v pos_n 4_o in_o course_n illegal_a mean_v there_o be_v which_o it_o be_v agree_v upon_o the_o subject_n may_v use_v to_o reduce_v he_o to_o legal_a government_n so_o much_o doctor_n ferne_n allow_v sect._n 4._o cry_v to_o god_n petition_v to_o the_o prince_n denial_n of_o obedience_n denial_n of_o subsidy_n etc._n etc._n five_o but_o the_o point_n in_o controversy_n be_v about_o positive_a and_o pos_n 5_o forcible_a resistance_n the_o lawfulness_n of_o which_o some_o do_v utter_o deny_v and_o other_o do_v as_o confident_o maintain_v but_o yet_o this_o point_n may_v be_v bring_v to_o a_o narrow_a state_n then_o in_o the_o confuse_a handle_v of_o it_o it_o usual_o be_v by_o distinguish_v twix_v forceable_a resistance_n use_v against_o the_o king_n own_o person_n or_o against_o inferior_a officer_n and_o instrument_n advise_v to_o or_o execute_v the_o illegal_a command_n sect._n 2_o for_o the_o first_o as_o i_o have_v before_o express_v myself_o force_n ought_v not_o to_o be_v use_v against_o the_o person_n of_o the_o sovereign_n on_o any_o pretence_n whatever_o by_o any_o or_o all_o his_o subject_n even_o in_o limit_a and_o mix_v monarchy_n for_o if_o they_o be_v true_o monarch_n they_o be_v irrevocable_o invest_v with_o sovereignty_n which_o set_v their_o person_n above_o all_o lawful_a power_n and_o force_n also_o the_o sovereign_a power_n be_v so_o confer_v on_o that_o person_n the_o person_n and_o power_n can_v be_v real_o sunder_v but_o the_o force_n which_o be_v use_v to_o the_o one_o must_v also_o violate_v the_o other_o for_o power_n be_v not_o in_o the_o sovereign_a as_o it_o be_v in_o inferior_a officer_n as_o water_n be_v otherwise_o in_o the_o spring_n then_o in_o the_o channel_n and_o pipe_n derive_v it_o it_o be_v not_o inseparable_o in_o they_o and_o therefore_o they_o offend_v force_n may_v be_v use_v against_o they_o without_o violation_n of_o the_o ordinance_n of_o authority_n these_o argument_n approve_v it_o unlawful_a in_o any_o that_o which_o the_o dr._n bring_v i_o approve_v as_o strong_a against_o all_o private_a force_n where_o he_o allow_v defence_n against_o the_o person_n of_o the_o prince_n himself_o so_o far_o as_o to_o ward_v his_o blow_n but_o not_o to_o return_v blow_n no_o though_o for_o natural_a defence_n because_o the_o commonwealth_n be_v concern_v in_o his_o person_n sect._n 2._o and_o to_o divert_v a_o private_a evil_n by_o induce_v a_o public_a be_v unjust_a and_o unlawful_a so_o that_o for_o this_o point_n of_o force_n against_o the_o person_n of_o the_o prince_n i_o think_v there_o aught_o to_o be_v no_o contention_n if_o any_o have_v be_v so_o rash_a to_o hold_v it_o lawful_a on_o these_o ground_n that_o the_o whole_a kingdom_n be_v above_o he_o because_o they_o make_v he_o king_n and_o that_o by_o miscarriage_n he_o may_v make_v a_o forfeiture_n and_o so_o lay_v himself_o open_a to_o force_v i_o do_v judge_v these_o ground_n very_o insufficient_a unless_o the_o kingdom_n reserve_v a_o superiority_n to_o itself_o or_o there_o be_v a_o fundamental_a clause_n of_o forfeiture_n on_o specify_v cause_n and_o than_o it_o be_v not_o proper_o a_o monarchy_n but_o all_o this_o have_v be_v already_o handle_v in_o the_o general_a part._n second_o for_o instrument_n of_o oppression_n of_o public_a liberty_n if_o the_o wrong_n be_v destructive_a and_o no_o other_o mean_n of_o prevention_n but_o force_n be_v leave_v i_o be_o persuade_v it_o may_v be_v use_v and_o positive_a resistance_n make_v against_o they_o and_o if_o i_o find_v any_o contradiction_n from_o the_o most_o rigid_a patroness_n of_o royalty_n it_o must_v be_v only_o in_o this_o point_n and_o here_o i_o must_v complain_v of_o the_o indistinct_a deal_n of_o that_o doctor_n in_o this_o

yet_o to_o assent_v to_o lawfullnes_n of_o resistance_n in_o this_o point_n for_o sect._n 2._o speak_v of_o david_n guard_n of_o arm_a man_n he_o say_v it_o be_v to_o secure_v his_o person_n against_o the_o cutthroat_n of_o saul_n if_o send_v to_o take_v away_o his_o life_n he_o mean_v to_o secure_v it_o by_o force_n for_o soldier_n be_v for_o force_n he_o mean_v no_o negative_a secure_n by_o
