edgar_n ethling_n who_o have_v a_o clear_a title_n by_o descent_n swear_v allegiance_n to_o he_o as_o to_o the_o doctrine_n of_o passive_a obedience_n and_o nonresistance_n there_o be_v nothing_o be_v so_o neat_a a_o emblem_n of_o it_o as_o a_o ass_n and_o nothing_o sound_v near_a to_o nonsense_n for_o if_o in_o any_o thing_n i_o have_v a_o right_n to_o deprive_v i_o of_o it_o either_o by_o force_n or_o fraud_n must_v be_v confess_v to_o be_v a_o wrong_n and_o wrong_n imply_v a_o right_a to_o defend_v and_o therefore_o the_o law_n call_v every_o man_n house_n his_o castle_n and_o his_o good_n his_o own_v nay_o even_o bare_a possession_n be_v a_o good_a title_n but_o if_o i_o may_v not_o defend_v these_o i_o have_v no_o right_n to_o they_o and_o if_o not_o in_o they_o i_o have_v as_o

experience_n that_o they_o understand_v the_o practice_n of_o it_o very_o ill_a for_o when_o the_o bishop_n be_v clap_v up_o in_o the_o tower_n none_o cry_v out_o so_o much_o against_o king_n james_n and_o arraign_v his_o proceed_n so_o much_o as_o they_o that_o have_v be_v the_o great_a asserter_n of_o this_o doctrine_n but_o to_o make_v this_o a_o little_a plain_o i_o will_v only_o ask_v they_o this_o question_n that_o be_v what_o be_v the_o measure_n of_o our_o allegiance_n or_o obedience_n for_o it_o be_v either_o the_o king_n will_n or_o the_o law_n and_o the_o first_o point_n of_o obedience_n be_v to_o know_v the_o will_n of_o the_o lawgiver_n and_o therefore_o if_o they_o say_v it_o be_v the_o king_n will_n i_o do_v presume_v to_o answer_v that_o can_v be_v the_o measure_n of_o our_o obedience_n because_o of_o the_o uncertainty_n of_o it_o and_o 2_o because_o he_o may_v command_v contrary_a thing_n which_o rational_a creature_n can_v be_v bind_v to_o in_o point_n of_o their_o obedience_n if_o then_o they_o say_v it_o be_v the_o law_n than_o it_o will_v follow_v that_o the_o power_n of_o the_o king_n be_v limit_v and_o when_o he_o exceed_v the_o limit_n he_o assume_v a_o power_n which_o neither_o god_n nature_n nor_o the_o government_n invest_v he_o with_o and_o therefore_o of_o right_n he_o may_v in_o such_o case_n be_v resist_v the_o point_n be_v very_o short_a either_o the_o king_n be_v limit_v in_o his_o power_n or_o he_o be_v not_o for_o there_o be_v no_o middle_a state_n betwixt_o slavery_n and_o freedom_n if_o the_o king_n be_v not_o limit_v then_o be_v we_o as_o much_o under_o the_o subjection_n of_o his_o passion_n as_o his_o reason_n but_o if_o he_o be_v limit_v than_o it_o be_v the_o law_n that_o set_v he_o his_o bound_n and_o the_o exercise_n of_o any_o power_n beyond_o what_o it_o allow_v he_o be_v unlawful_a neither_o can_v it_o be_v suppose_v that_o god_n will_v subject_v the_o world_n to_o the_o will_n and_o passion_n of_o particular_a man_n because_o it_o be_v inconsistent_a with_o his_o mercy_n and_o justice_n the_o will_n of_o a_o king_n be_v a_o wild_a uncertain_a thing_n and_o a_o very_a false_a guide_n to_o follow_v in_o govern_v his_o people_n but_o to_o make_v the_o law_n the_o measure_n of_o all_o his_o action_n and_o the_o welfare_n of_o his_o people_n the_o end_n of_o all_o his_o public_a design_n be_v that_o alone_a which_o will_v make_v a_o king_n of_o england_n safe_a easy_a and_o powerful_a there_o be_v one_o thing_n more_o that_o i_o will_v explain_v to_o you_o and_o that_o be_v the_o difference_n betwixt_o the_o government_n and_o the_o administration_n of_o the_o government_n for_o i_o be_o persuade_v that_o several_a people_n have_v be_v ensnare_v with_o the_o notion_n that_o they_o be_v one_o and_o the_o same_o thing_n i_o believe_v i_o need_v not_o tell_v you_o that_o a_o trust_n and_o the_o execution_n of_o it_o be_v distinct_a thing_n and_o i_o may_v tell_v you_o that_o the_o difference_n be_v no_o less_o betwixt_o the_o government_n and_o the_o administration_n of_o it_o for_o if_o any_o thing_n be_v do_v that_o be_v not_o direct_v by_o that_o trust_n it_o be_v the_o act_n of_o those_o that_o do_v it_o and_o not_o of_o the_o trust_n in_o like_a manner_n whatever_o be_v do_v that_o be_v not_o direct_v by_o the_o law_n it_o can_v be_v charge_v as_o a_o fault_n upon_o the_o government_n but_o in_o the_o two_o late_o reign_v every_o thing_n that_o be_v do_v though_o never_o so_o unjust_a unreasonable_a or_o without_o precedent_n be_v call_v the_o government_n whereas_o the_o government_n or_o law_n they_o be_v the_o same_o be_v a_o know_v certain_a thing_n not_o command_v one_o thing_n to_o day_n and_o the_o contrary_a to_o morrow_n it_o
