in_o the_o follow_a section_n of_o which_o i_o shall_v here_o give_v you_o a_o taste_n the_o word_n of_o god_n oblige_v we_o to_o submit_v not_o only_o to_o the_o authority_n of_o prince_n that_o

any_o man_n to_o be_v king_n let_v we_o call_v to_o mind_v the_o heavenly_a oracle_n which_o appoint_v we_o to_o honour_n and_o fear_v the_o king_n and_o then_o we_o shall_v not_o fail_v to_o bear_v

they_o be_v to_o suffer_v from_o their_o king_n use_v these_o word_n this_o will_v be_v the_o manner_n or_o right_n of_o the_o king_n that_o shall_v reign_v over_o you_o he_o will_v take_v your_o

samuel_n call_v this_o the_o right_n of_o the_o king_n over_o the_o people_n because_o the_o people_n be_v under_o a_o indispensable_a obligation_n to_o submit_v and_o be_v not_o allow_v to_o resist_v as_o if_o the_o prophet_n have_v explain_v himself_o after_o this_o manner_n the_o mismanagement_n of_o king_n shall_v come_v to_o this_o height_n and_o you_o shall_v have_v no_o right_a to_o oppose_v it_o your_o part_n must_v be_v to_o take_v their_o command_n and_o to_o obey_v they_o calvin_n after_o this_o produce_v a_o long_a passage_n out_o of_o jeremiah_n where_o great_a punishment_n be_v

conclude_v that_o we_o ought_v to_o reject_v these_o seditious_a thought_n that_o a_o king_n ought_v to_o be_v handle_v as_o he_o deserve_v and_o that_o there_o be_v no_o reason_n we_o shall_v
