in_o such_o a_o state_n resistance_n of_o destructive_a instrument_n be_v neither_o of_o power_n nor_o god_n ordinance_n i_o may_v therefore_o well_o omit_v that_o which_o at_o large_a here_o he_o

they_o may_v not_o resist_v in_o that_o monarchy_n but_o affirm_v that_o subject_n may_v in_o this_o and_o he_o bring_v i_o in_o give_v two_o reason_n for_o it_o 1._o because_o religion_n be_v then_o

because_o then_o that_o be_v past_a the_o government_n change_v and_o a_o oath_n take_v of_o absolute_a subjection_n have_v i_o by_o these_o thing_n grant_v a_o liberty_n of_o resistance_n of_o god_n

of_o a_o prince_n by_o promise_n limit_v himself_o in_o the_o use_n of_o his_o power_n i_o say_v though_o he_o sin_n in_o exceed_v such_o promise_n yet_o we_o owe_v he_o also_o active_a obedience_n in_o such_o command_n which_o god_n law_n forbid_v we_o not_o to_o be_v active_a in_o neither_o do_v i_o bring_v doctor_n bilson_n testimony_n to_o prove_v that_o religion_n be_v then_o no_o part_n

who_o explain_v the_o power_n there_o forbid_v to_o be_v resist_v say_v it_o be_v the_o prince_n will_v not_o against_o his_o law_n but_o agree_v to_o his_o law_n here_o he_o serve_v dr_n bilson_n and_o other_o divine_n as_o before_o the_o king_n and_o the_o parliament_n teach_v they_o a_o meaning_n contrary_n to_o their_o word_n they_o mean_v such_o state_n as_o may_v by_o the_o know_a law_n
