lesson_n he_o can_v learn_v by_o which_o he_o will_v see_v the_o error_n of_o the_o time_n and_o what_o change_v the_o wicked_a have_v wrought_v among_o we_o therefore_o since_o several_a parliament_n have_v make_v statute_n that_o the_o king_n can_v commit_v no_o treason_n nor_o no_o treason_n be_v commit_v but_o against_o the_o king_n exit_fw-la ore_fw-la tuo_fw-la te_fw-la judicabo_fw-la we_o

sin_n transgress_v also_o the_o law_n for_o sin_n be_v the_o trangression_n of_o the_o law_n 1_o john_n 3.4_o then_o how_o can_v the_o king_n sin_n when_o there_o be_v no_o law_n for_o he_o to_o transgress_v by_o the_o common_a law_n as_o i_o have_v already_o show_v he_o can_v not_o be_v a_o offender_n neither_o can_v he_o by_o any_o statute_n for_o at_o that_o very_a time_n when_o the_o parliament_n the_o people_n representative_n charge_v the_o king_n with_o treason_n they_o have_v make_v many_o statute_n that_o those_o thing_n which_o they_o themselves_o act_v against_o the_o king_n shall_v be_v high_a treason_n against_o the_o king_n but_o they_o have_v make_v no_o law_n whereby_o the_o king_n may_v become_v a_o traitor_n against_o they_o therefore_o the_o king_n can_v not_o offend_v against_o that_o law_n which_o be_v not_o adam_n have_v not_o sin_v in_o eat_v the_o forhidden_a fruit_n have_v he_o not_o be_v first_o forbid_v neither_o have_v st._n paul_n know_v

his_o case_n fol._n 22._o a_o cook_n but_o rather_o a_o scullion_n i_o be_o sure_a of_o no_o affinity_n in_o judgement_n nor_o comparable_a in_o learning_n with_o our_o great_a master_n and_o oracle_n of_o the_o law_n sir_n edward_n cook_n do_v say_v and_o profess_v that_o they_o have_v a_o law_n write_v in_o their_o heart_n whereby_o they_o be_v enable_v and_o authorize_v to_o kill_v the_o king_n if_o he_o offend_v but_o i_o wonder_v holy_a david_n have_v not_o this_o law_n write_v in_o his_o heart_n to_o kill_v wicked_a king_n saul_n when_o it_o lay_v in_o his_o power_n so_o to_o do_v the_o question_n be_v easy_o answer_v for_o god_n say_v that_o david_n be_v a_o man_n after_o god_n own_o heart_n and_o therefore_o can_v not_o do_v so_o great_a a_o villainy_n but_o i_o be_o sure_a if_o the_o scripture_n be_v true_a neither_o god_n nor_o man_n will_v say_v that_o these_o man_n be_v man_n either_o after_o god_n heart_n or_o any_o honest_a man_n heart_n and_o divide_v the_o kingdom_n and_o you_o will_v find_v a_o thousand_o for_o one_o in_o who_o heart_n this_o law_n be_v never_o write_v therefore_o if_o it_o be_v write_v in_o some_o few_o man_n heart_n yet_o since_o it_o be_v not_o write_v in_o the_o heart_n of_o the_o major_a part_n according_a to_o their_o own_o tenet_n that_o law_n be_v not_o bind_v you_o may_v read_v in_o 1_o sam._n 24.6_o and_o cap._n 26.11_o that_o it_o be_v in_o david_n power_n and_o he_o be_v admonish_v to_o kill_v his_o enemy_n wicked_a king_n saul_n once_o in_o the_o cave_n where_o he_o cut_v off_o the_o king_n skirt_n indeed_o but_o his_o

therefore_o let_v i_o smite_v he_o i_o pray_v thou_o with_o the_o spear_n even_o to_o the_o earth_n at_o once_o and_o i_o will_v not_o smite_v he_o the_o second_o time_n and_o david_n say_v to_o

shall_v smite_v he_o or_o his_o day_n shall_v come_v to_o die_v or_o he_o shall_v descend_v into_o battle_n and_o perish_v the_o lord_n forbid_v that_o i_o shall_v stretch_v forth_o my_o hand_n against_o the_o lord_n anoint_v but_o i_o pray_v thou_o take_v thou_o now_o the_o spear_n that_o be_v at_o his_o bolster_n and_o the_o cruse_n of_o water_n and_o let_v we_o go_v here_o you_o may_v

do_v it_o without_o commit_v a_o high_a and_o woeful_a offence_n therefore_o better_o it_o be_v for_o all_o man_n with_o king_n david_n to_o commit_v the_o punishment_n of_o their_o king_n to_o god_n who_o most_o assure_o will_v punish_v the_o king_n aswell_o as_o the_o beggar_n for_o his_o offence_n and_o not_o violent_o oppose_v or_o stretch_v forth_o their_o hand_n against_o he_o for_o none_o
