A61509	Jus populi vindicatum, or, The peoples right to defend themselves and their covenanted religion vindicated wherein the act of defence and vindication which was interprised anno 1666 is particularly justified ... being a reply to the first part of Survey of Naphtaly &c. / by a friend to true Christian liberty.

the_o magistrate_n abuse_v his_o power_n not_o in_o some_o particular_n only_o but_o in_o many_o and_o in_o many_o main_a particular_n if_o not_o in_o all_o have_v thus_o clear_v and_o vindicate_v

the_o 2._o thing_n he_o say_v be_v that_o though_o this_o obligation_n be_v mutual_a yet_o be_v it_o not_o conditional_a and_o how_o prove_v he_o this_o there_o be_v say_v he_o a_o mutual_a obligation_n to_o mutual_a duty_n betwixt_o parent_n and_o child_n but_o it_o be_v not_o conditional_a that_o if_o parent_n be_v undutiful_a child_n shall_v be_v loose_v from_o their_o duty_n or_o

creat_v not_o the_o father_n as_o the_o subject_n create_v the_o king_n 3._o yea_o child_n do_v not_o so_o much_o as_o give_v their_o consent_n that_o such_o a_o one_o shall_v be_v their_o father_n before_o the_o relation_n have_v be_v yet_o royalist_n will_v grant_v this_o much_o unto_o the_o people_n in_o relation_n to_o their_o king_n 4._o the_o relation_n betwixt_o father_n and_o son_n have_v no_o dependence_n less_o or_o more_o upon_o any_o act_n of_o will_n in_o the_o son_n or_o upon_o any_o covenant_n agriement_n or_o compact_a express_a or_o tacit_a betwixt_o the_o father_n &_o the_o son_n it_o be_v not_o so_o as_o to_o the_o relation_n betwixt_o king_n and_o people_n for_o before_o this_o mutual_a relation_n arise_v there_o must_v be_v a_o constitution_n and_o this_o

but_o the_o other_o may_v by_o a_o subject_n choose_v to_o live_v under_o another_o sovereign_n 6._o let_v the_o father_n do_v what_o he_o will_v the_o relation_n betwixt_o he_o and_o his_o son_n shall_v never_o be_v loose_v or_o weaken_v but_o the_o great_a royalist_n will_v grant_v that_o in_o some_o case_n the_o king_n may_v be_v make_v no_o king_n and_o his_o relation_n either_o whole_o take_v away_o or_o much_o diminish_v so_o then_o the_o consequence_n be_v null_a that_o because_o child_n be_v not_o bind_v to_o their_o parent_n conditional_o therefore_o subject_n be_v bind_v conditional_o to_o there_o prince_n for_o child_n have_v no_o hand_n in_o make_v up_o that_o relation_n betwixt_o parent_n and_o they_o their_o consent_n be_v not_o so_o much_o as_o require_v but_o in_o make_v up_o the_o relation_n betwixt_o king_n and_o subject_n there_o be_v a_o previous_a compact_n require_v in_o which_o compact_n the_o people_n have_v their_o great_a share_n child_n give_v not_o paternity_n unto_o their_o parent_n but_o subject_n give_v the_o kingship_n at_o least_o instrumental_o under_o god_n and_o they_o set_v up_o king_n when_o they_o may_v set_v up_o noble_n and_o set_v up_o his_o man_n when_o they_o may_v have_v set_v up_o another_o can_v child_n do_v so_o how_o then_o shall_v the_o case_n be_v alike_o and_o the_o one_o be_v no_o more_o conditional_a than_o the_o other_o next_o as_o for_o calvin_n we_o willing_o with_o he_o grant_v that_o subject_n be_v to_o obey_v evil_a magistrate_n and_o to_o do_v their_o duty_n to_o they_o though_o the_o magistrate_n shall_v come_v short_a of_o they_o as_o wife_n &_o child_n be_v bind_v to_o love_n and_o be_v subject_a unto_o undutiful_a husband_n and_o father_n but_o calvin_n will_v not_o say_v that_o in_o no_o
