establish_v true_a policy_n be_v a_o apparent_a certain_a and_o accessible_a union_n of_o irresistible_a power_n apparent_a and_o certain_a i_o say_v for_o else_o how_o shall_v littigant_fw-la party_n know_v where_o to_o make_v their_o address_n accessible_a it_o must_v be_v also_o both_o for_o the_o last_o appeal_v sake_n or_o what_o else_o it_o shall_v choose_v to_o act_v by_o itself_o

before_o say_v like_o the_o centre_n in_o a_o circle_n for_o there_o as_o the_o singleness_n of_o the_o centre_n make_v the_o union_n and_o meeting_n of_o the_o circumference_n and_o consequent_o but_o one_o circle_n so_o two_o centre_n though_o never_o so_o like_a and_o near_a yet_o have_v circumference_n draw_v from_o they_o will_v make_v two_o circle_n and_o further_o as_o the_o centre_n give_v be_v to_o the_o circumference_n so_o the_o circumference_n to_o it_o again_o for_o until_o this_o be_v draw_v the_o centre_n be_v but_o a_o point_n as_o until_o the_o subject_n be_v the_o

not_o a_o circle_n so_o in_o policy_n till_o the_o body_n of_o the_o people_n be_v fix_v upon_o a_o unity_n as_o upon_o a_o centre_n they_o have_v no_o assurance_n of_o equal_a and_o certain_a

more_o centre_n they_o will_v in_o the_o latter_a case_n make_v two_o or_o more_o circle_n or_o commonweal_n and_o in_o the_o other_o as_o want_v a_o common_a and_o perfect_a rule_n or_o measure_n make_v it_o like_o a_o unequal_a round_n or_o circumference_n to_o consist_v of_o many_o irregularity_n and_o faction_n and_o then_o again_o as_o the_o centre_n of_o the_o earth_n have_v in_o its_o

not_o to_o all_o or_o any_o part_n of_o the_o circumference_n beside_o so_o this_o union_n of_o property_n and_o power_n must_v first_o be_v unite_v in_o one_o centre_n of_o sovereignty_n that_o so_o the_o whole_a force_n and_o vigour_n rest_v now_o there_o like_a as_o one_o foot_n of_o the_o compass_n must_v fix_v and_o make_v the_o centre_n before_o the_o other_o can_v make_v the_o circle_n subject_n may_v be_v capable_a of_o a_o harmonious_a receipt_n and_o direction_n from_o thence_o again_o by_o the_o strait_a line_n of_o attraction_n and_o intercourse_n which_o as_o it_o will_v prove_v near_o their_o journey_n end_n namely_o the_o attain_v political_a good_a call_v peace_n &_o plenty_n so_o will_v it_o also_o keep_v they_o from_o justle_a or_o enterfer_v upon_o one_o another_o in_o their_o address_n and_o desire_n and_o thereby_o avoid_v political_a evil_n which_o be_v civil_a war_n for_o if_o any_o faction_n of_o the_o people_n shall_v grow_v to_o that_o greatness_n and_o temerity_n as_o to_o disannul_v sovereign_a command_n then_o shall_v sovereignty_n be_v no_o sovereignty_n nor_o political_a happiness_n at_o all_o attainable_a the_o measure_n or_o way_n thereunto_o be_v thus_o lose_v or_o uncertain_a no_o more_o then_o if_o the_o force_n of_o union_n or_o attraction_n shall_v be_v great_a or_o equal_a in_o any_o part_n of_o the_o earth_n circumference_n then_o in_o the_o centre_n it_o can_v still_o keep_v its_o round_a figure_n or_o indeed_o have_v any_o determinate_a figure_n at_o all_o but_o by_o this_o uncertain_a or_o unequal_a direction_n and_o addition_n of_o massy_a body_n some_o one_o part_n of_o the_o circumference_n unproportionable_o swell_v the_o centre_n must_v alter_v also_o whereby_o for_o want_v of_o settle_a place_n in_o that_o element_n it_o shall_v not_o be_v able_a to_o operate_v in_o due_a manner_n so_o in_o state_n and_o kingdom_n if_o they_o have_v not_o a_o common_a centre_n of_o desire_n and_o good_a or_o have_v not_o the_o same_o so_o definite_a and_o certain_a but_o that_o all_o or_o any_o part_n of_o the_o people_n may_v take_v upon_o they_o according_a to_o their_o separate_a appetite_n to_o judge_n and_o determine_v of_o good_a and_o bad_a what_o equality_n or_o proportion_n can_v the_o whole_a have_v for_o this_o differ_v and_o doubtful_a application_n will_v not_o only_o render_v it_o weak_a and_o disfigure_v but_o also_o one_o part_n destructive_a to_o another_o so_o that_o no_o government_n can_v be_v right_o call_v a_o commonwealth_n or_o one_o commonwealth_n where_o the_o supreme_a power_n and_o interest_n be_v not_o centre_v in_o one_o person_n for_o in_o monarchy_n as_o there_o be_v a_o personal_a so_o be_v there_o a_o natural_a and_o necessary_a union_n when_o as_o in_o all_o pollarchy_n there_o be_v still_o a_o natural_a and_o necessary_a division_n of_o person_n and_o interest_n and_o only_o a_o accidental_a and_o contingent_a union_n occasion_v by_o some_o
