but_o i_o can_v allow_v of_o so_o indefinite_a a_o censure_n rather_o i_o think_v the_o right_n of_o conquest_n be_v such_o as_o the_o precedent_a war_n be_v if_o that_o be_v lawful_a so_o be_v the_o conquest_n for_o a_o prince_n may_v be_v invade_v or_o so_o far_o injure_v by_o a_o neighbour_n people_n or_o they_o may_v be_v set_v on_o such_o a_o pernicious_a enmity_n against_o he_o and_o his_o

then_o conquest_n may_v be_v a_o lawful_a way_n of_o acquisition_n yet_o a_o immediate_a cause_n of_o right_n of_o sovereignty_n that_o be_v of_o a_o civil_a power_n of_o government_n to_o which_o obedience_n be_v due_a it_o can_v be_v i_o say_v a_o immediate_a cause_n for_o a_o remote_a impulsive_a cause_n it_o oft_o be_v but_o not_o a_o immediate_a formal_a cause_n for_o that_o must_v ever_o be_v the_o consent_n of_o the_o people_n whereby_o they_o accept_v of_o and_o resign_v up_o themselves_o to_o a_o government_n and_o then_o their_o person_n be_v moral_o bind_v and_o not_o before_o thus_o far_o the_o force_n of_o conquest_n may_v go_v it_o may_v give_v a_o man_n title_n over_o and_o power_n to_o possess_v and_o dispose_v of_o the_o country_n and_o good_n of_o the_o conquer_a yea_o the_o body_n and_o life_n of_o the_o conquer_a be_v at_o the_o will_n and_o pleasure_n of_o the_o conqueror_n but_o it_o still_o be_v at_o the_o people_n choice_n to_o come_v into_o a_o moral_a

will_v rather_o suffer_v the_o utmost_a violence_n of_o the_o conqueror_n and_o will_v consent_v to_o no_o term_n of_o subjection_n as_o numantia_n in_o spain_n and_o many_o other_o people_n have_v resolve_v they_o die_v or_o remain_v a_o free_a people_n be_v they_o captive_v or_o possess_v at_o pleasure_n they_o owe_v no_o duty_n neither_o do_v they_o sin_v in_o not_o obey_v nor_o do_v they_o
