he_o can_v the_o first_o therefore_o be_v take_v out_o of_o the_o sevententh_fw-mi chapter_n of_o deutronomie_n 17.17_o deut._n 17.17_o where_o it_o be_v command_v to_o the_o people_n of_o israel_n to_o constitute_v over_o they_o the_o king_n who_o the_o lord_n their_o god_n shall_v choose_v comprise_v in_o the_o covenant_n which_o he_o have_v contract_v with_o he_o from_o the_o which_o place_n the_o aaforesayd_a monk_n do_v draw_v his_o conclusion_n as_o aforesaid_a that_o be_v to_o say_v that_o the_o king_n for_o be_v a_o heretic_n ought_v not_o to_o be_v admit_v to_o the_o crown_n of_o france_n no_o more_o then_o in_o oldettme_n a_o pagan_a might_n to_o that_o of_o the_o jew_n therefore_o say_v he_o the_o law_n of_o moses_n concern_v the_o election_n of_o the_o king_n of_o israel_n be_v moral_a and_o by_o consequence_n do_v bind_v all_o christian_n to_o the_o observation_n of_o the_o same_o the_o answer_n to_o this_o be_v that_o see_v physic_n must_v be_v apply_v to_o the_o body_n that_o be_v disease_v let_v we_o put_v the_o case_n whether_o the_o question_n be_v concern_v a_o king_n be_v a_o infidel_n or_o a_o heretic_n for_o the_o regard_n namely_o of_o such_o a_o sovereign_a i_o deny_v the_o proposition_n the_o which_o i_o maintain_v to_o be_v false_a for_o four_o reason_n to_o be_v consider_v in_o the_o examination_n and_o circumstance_n of_o the_o text_n 17_o deut._n 17_o where_o moses_n say_v thus_o thou_o shall_v make_v he_o king_n over_o thou_o who_o the_o lord_n thy_o god_n shall_v choose_v from_o among_o thy_o brethren_n thou_o shall_v not_o set_v a_o stranger_n over_o thou_o which_o be_v not_o thy_o brother_n where_o first_o of_o all_o be_v to_o be_v understand_v that_o the_o king_n which_o the_o lord_n will_v give_v unto_o his_o people_n call_v in_o the_o scripture_n the_o anoint_a of_o the_o lord_n shall_v be_v choose_v after_o another_o fashion_n and_o to_o another_o end_n than_o other_o be_v therefore_o moses_n say_v that_o god_n himself_o will_v choose_v this_o king_n differ_v from_o they_o of_o other_o nation_n for_o that_o he_o will_v have_v he_o represent_v and_o figure_v the_o messiah_n his_o son_n be_v king_n everlasting_a and_o redeemer_n of_o the_o world_n and_o that_o he_o will_v have_v he_o to_o reign_v over_o a_o holy_a nation_n which_o privilege_n give_v we_o to_o understand_v that_o these_o sacred_a king_n be_v holy_a and_o separate_v from_o other_o wherefore_o moses_n in_o this_o text_n 10_o 1._o sam._n 10_o and_o the_o history_n of_o the_o king_n do_v witness_v that_o their_o election_n proceed_v from_o god_n &_o not_o from_o the_o people_n for_o which_o respect_v there_o be_v a_o separation_n and_o a_o difference_n put_v between_o they_o and_o other_o so_o as_o be_v see_v in_o the_o election_n of_o saul_n 9_o 1._o chron_n 28._o jug._n 9_o david_n and_o solomon_n the_o cause_n why_o abimelech_n be_v before_o appoint_v king_n of_o sichem_n endure_v but_o a_o while_n be_v for_o that_o that_o he_o be_v not_o so_o call_v of_o god_n the_o time_n of_o the_o king_n be_v not_o yet_o come_v where_o it_o appear_v that_o such_o proceed_n be_v not_o convenient_a at_o this_o day_n for_o other_o nation_n if_o thou_o do_v reply_v that_o christian_n king_n have_v one_o and_o the_o self_n same_o holiness_n as_o those_o of_o the_o jew_n have_v proceed_v from_o one_o common_a god_n i_o answer_v that_o it_o suffice_v to_o prove_v that_o the_o christian_a nation_n never_o have_v this_o particular_a commandment_n nor_o this_o special_a promise_n to_o have_v power_n always_o to_o constitute_v over_o they_o a_o king_n of_o their_o own_o religion_n so_o give_v of_o god_n this_o be_v a_o privilege_n only_o which_o the_o jew_n have_v for_o the_o christian_n have_v be_v and_o be_v bind_v by_o the_o general_a commandment_n of_o god_n to_o abide_v subject_a to_o their_o prince_n which_o he_o have_v give_v they_o of_o what_o religion_n soever_o they_o have_v be_v or_o be_v as_o shall_v be_v more_o at_o large_a discuss_v in_o his_o place_n to_o that_o which_o remain_v thou_o ought_v to_o prove_v that_o this_o realm_n be_v a_o
or_o receive_v much_o less_o such_o rapine_n ought_v to_o be_v call_v a_o statute_n and_o for_o less_o cause_n a_o fundamental_a law_n of_o the_o realm_n under_o the_o colour_n of_o which_o speech_n thou_o do_v here_o suppress_v the_o truth_n which_o bind_v all_o the_o gentleman_n of_o france_n to_o this_o duty_n which_o be_v here_o speak_v of_o forasmuch_o as_o they_o have_v receyve_v their_o

state_n of_o the_o monarchy_n and_o in_o the_o line_n of_o the_o blood_n royal_a and_o for_o the_o want_n of_o such_o obedience_n they_o shall_v be_v account_v rebel_n and_o felon_n this_o be_v therefore_o the_o true_a fundamental_a law_n just_a and_o approve_v of_o all_o estate_n &_o not_o thy_o last_o false_a pretend_a statute_n which_o some_o varlet_n have_v wrest_v by_o subtlety_n

of_o any_o thing_n and_o thus_o let_v we_o pass_v further_o the_o five_o article_n the_o five_o article_n contain_v two_o point_n the_o first_o be_v that_o the_o catholiek_n which_o do_v help_v the_o

be_v lose_v in_o a_o king_n be_v a_o heretic_n now_o to_o the_o first_o we_o answer_v thus_o that_o the_o honour_n and_o glory_n of_o a_o realm_n 17_o john_n 17_o consist_v in_o the_o true_a
