of_o authority_n and_o he_o that_o have_v possession_n though_o against_o right_n have_v god_n authority_n which_o be_v the_o notion_n that_o run_v through_o his_o whole_a book_n to_o clear_v this_o

this_o subject_a i._n first_o i_o shall_v say_v something_o to_o the_o nature_n of_o civil_a authority_n or_o show_v what_o it_o be_v that_o we_o may_v know_v what_o to_o seek_v for_o in_o one_o when_o we_o seek_v after_o authority_n there_o be_v the_o more_o need_n of_o this_o because_o i_o sin_v man_n be_v very_o apt_a to_o take_v external_n may_v and_o strength_n which_o they_o see_v in_o

sufficient_a to_o show_v that_o the_o authority_n of_o a_o king_n do_v not_o lie_v in_o possession_n of_o external_n strength_n but_o in_o such_o a_o right_n of_o order_v as_o lay_v a_o internal_a
