authority_n p._n 12._o and_o all_o power_n on_o earth_n be_v either_o derive_v or_o usurp_v from_o the_o fatherly_a power_n there_o be_v no_o other_o original_a to_o be_v find_v of_o any_o power_n

to_o understand_v how_o there_o can_v be_v no_o other_o original_a but_o fatherhood_n and_o yet_o that_o the_o ground_n and_o principle_n of_o government_n depend_v upon_o the_o original_a of_o

how_o these_o two_o original_n of_o government_n adam_n natural_a and_o private_a dominion_n will_v consist_v and_o serve_v to_o make_v out_o and_o establish_v the_o title_n of_o succeed_v monarch_n who_o as_o our_o a_o oblige_v they_o must_v all_o derive_v their_o power_n from_o these_o fountain_n let_v we_o then_o suppose_v adam_n make_v by_o god_n donation_n lord_n and_o sole_a proprietor_n of_o the_o whole_a earth_n in_o as_o large_a and_o ample_a a_o manner_n as_o sir_n robt._n can_v wish_v let_v we_o suppose_v he_o also_o by_o right_a of_o fatherhood_n absolute_a ruler_n over_o his_o

that_o they_o descend_v to_o his_o next_o heir_n as_o our_o a_o tell_v we_o in_o several_a place_n but_o that_o can_v possible_o convey_v both_o his_o natural_a and_o private_a dominion_n to_o the_o same_o person_n for_o shall_v we_o allow_v that_o all_o the_o propriety_n all_o the_o estate_n of_o the_o father_n ought_v to_o descend_v to_o the_o elder_a son_n which_o will_v need_v some_o proof_n to_o establish_v it_o and_o so_o he_o have_v by_o that_o title_n all_o the_o private_a dominion_n of_o the_o father_n yet_o the_o father_n natural_a dominion_n the_o paternal_a power_n can_v descend_v to_o he_o by_o inheritance_n for_o be_v a_o right_n that_o accrue_v to_o a_o man_n only_o by_o beget_v no_o man_n can_v have_v this_o natural_a dominion_n over_o any_o one_o he_o do_v not_o beget_v unless_o it_o can_v be_v suppose_v that_o a_o man_n can_v have_v a_o right_n to_o any_o thing_n without_o do_v that_o upon_o which_o that_o right_o be_v sole_o found_v for_o if_o a_o father_n by_o beget_v and_o no_o other_o title_n have_v natural_a dominion_n over_o his_o child_n he_o that_o do_v not_o beget_v they_o can_v have_v this_o natural_a dominion_n over_o they_o and_o therefore_o be_v

follow_v viz._n that_o a_o man_n by_o his_o birth_n can_v become_v a_o subject_a to_o his_o brother_n who_o do_v not_o beget_v he_o unless_o it_o can_v be_v suppose_v that_o a_o man_n by_o the_o very_a same_o title_n can_v come_v to_o be_v under_o the_o natural_a and_o absolute_a dominion_n of_o two_o different_a man_n at_o once_o or_o it_o be_v sense_n to_o say_v that_o a_o man_n by_o
