worthy_a say_n of_o a_o learned_a historian_n who_o witness_v 3._o french_z hist_o in_o henr._n 3._o that_o as_o in_o the_o person_n of_o a_o man_n the_o life_n consist_v in_o the_o union_n of_o the_o body_n and_o the_o soul_n so_o in_o a_o kingdom_n state_n or_o commonweal_n the_o life_n thereof_o stand_v in_o the_o coherence_n and_o conjunction_n of_o command_n which_o be_v as_o the_o soul_n and_o of_o obedience_n which_o be_v as_o the_o body_n thereof_o if_o either_o then_o say_v he_o the_o soul_n of_o command_n shall_v tyrannize_v over_o the_o body_n of_o obedience_n by_o unjust_a law_n or_o the_o body_n of_o obedience_n will_v not_o receive_v the_o law_n of_o the_o soul_n in_o just_a ordinance_n there_o ensue_v a_o death_n to_o that_o kingdom_n state_n or_o commonweal_n though_o sic_fw-la volo_fw-la sic_fw-la iubeo_fw-la so_o i_o will_v so_o i_o command_v be_v the_o voice_n of_o tyrant_n yet_o for_o a_o man_n to_o add_v his_o volo_fw-la to_o god_n iubeo_fw-la his_o will_n to_o god_n command_n be_v the_o harmony_n of_o obedience_n the_o second_o thing_n i_o do_v consider_v in_o the_o manner_n of_o this_o intent_n be_v their_o wilfulness_n in_o that_o they_o will_v not_o do_v the_o law_n of_o god_n and_o the_o king_n law_n their_o undutifulnesse_n forspeak_v of_o may_v be_v liken_v to_o the_o roll_a of_o the_o stone_n to_o the_o door_n of_o the_o sepulchre_n math._n 27._o 60_o mat._n 27._o 60_o 60._o their_o wilfulness_n in_o that_o they_o will_v not_o do_v it_o be_v like_o the_o seal_n of_o that_o stone_n so_o roll_v to_o make_v all_o sure_a math._n 27._o 66._o

other_o bar_n &_o bolt_v it_o the_o one_o be_v like_o the_o sin_n of_o david_n who_o do_v not_o obey_v the_o voice_n of_o the_o lord_n in_o marry_v two_o sin_n together_o to_o make_v a_o bloody_a
