that_o he_o always_o think_v that_o the_o doctrine_n of_o nonresistance_n have_v be_v a_o doctrine_n found_v in_o the_o holy_a scripture_n 1._o page_n 1._o etc._n etc._n which_o be_v much_o the_o

with_o any_o consider_a man._n but_o what_o he_o say_v as_o to_o its_o be_v maintain_v in_o the_o first_o age_n of_o the_o reformation_n be_v easy_o say_v than_o prove_v that_o the_o first_o

maintain_v nonresistance_n to_o the_o same_o height_n that_o this_o author_n and_o his_o party_n do_v be_v more_o than_o he_o can_v evince_v since_o there_o be_v nothing_o of_o it_o in_o the_o 39_o article_n and_o the_o citation_n which_o he_o bring_v out_o of_o the_o homily_n seem_v to_o affect_v private_a person_n and_o not_o a_o community_n but_o if_o this_o be_v always_o the_o profess_a doctrine_n of_o the_o church_n of_o england_n that_o it_o be_v in_o no_o case_n lawful_a for_o subject_n to_o resist_v of_o defend_v themselves_o against_o the_o tyrannical_a invasion_n of_o their_o

those_o of_o scotland_n and_o of_o late_a day_n the_o protestant_n of_o rochel_n i_o believe_v that_o author_n will_v scarce_o venture_v to_o say_v that_o she_o do_v not_o approve_v it_o and_o therefore_o it_o must_v either_o be_v grant_v that_o she_o do_v not_o maintain_v nonresistance_n in_o that_o height_n as_o our_o author_n and_o his_o party_n do_v or_o that_o she_o act_v very_o dissonant_o to_o her_o principle_n which_o will_v be_v a_o great_a reflection_n on_o so_o great_a and_o pious_a divine_n as_o live_v then_o for_o have_v she_o be_v of_o opinion_n that_o it_o be_v unlawful_a for_o subject_n upon_o any_o account_n to_o defend_v themselves_o against_o the_o unjust_a oppression_n of_o their_o sovereign_n she_o must_v needs_o at_o the_o same_o time_n see_v that_o it_o be_v unlawful_a for_o she_o to_o be_v aider_n and_o abettor_n with_o they_o and_o partake_v of_o their_o sin_n and_o so_o instead_o of_o approve_v or_o send_v of_o supply_n to_o they_o she_o shall_v have_v send_v they_o over_o that_o christian_a exhortation_n that_o it_o be_v their_o indispensable_a duty_n to_o submit_v their_o neck_n to_o whatever_o their_o sovereign_n shall_v impose_v upon_o they_o and_o suffer_v it_o patient_o and_o by_o no_o mean_n to_o resist_v their_o superior_a power_n but_o we_o have_v nothing_o upon_o record_n that_o any_o of_o her_o divine_n at_o that_o time_n live_v object_v any_o thing_n against_o it_o and_o therefore_o we_o may_v with_o all_o the_o reason_n of_o the_o world_n conclude_v that_o have_v it_o be_v she_o own_o case_n she_o will_v have_v take_v the_o same_o method_n of_o defend_v herself_o as_o other_o protestant_n do_v for_o she_o have_v but_o a_o little_a before_o be_v under_o the_o same_o trial_n herself_o and_o therefore_o

answer_v that_o in_o king_n edward_n the_o six_o day_n she_o be_v but_o in_o her_o infancy_n and_o it_o be_v probable_a that_o the_o protestant_n at_o that_o time_n be_v not_o so_o strong_a in_o
