of_o england_n some_o understand_v by_o it_o the_o common_a consent_n of_o england_n and_o if_o so_o what_o be_v settle_v by_o common_a consent_n may_v be_v alter_v by_o it_o because_o the_o same_o or_o a_o equal_a power_n may_v doubtless_o alter_v what_o it_o make_v 2._o their_o second_o assertion_n that_o the_o king_n be_v unaccountable_a to_o any_o humane_a power_n be_v mere_o precarious_a for_o if_o he_o be_v limit_v in_o the_o use_n and_o exercise_v of_o his_o power_n by_o humane_a positive_a law_n 209._o either_o those_o law_n can_v call_v he_o to_o a_o account_n or_o they_o do_v not_o limit_v he_o for_o to_o be_v unaccountable_a and_o yet_o to_o be_v under_o legal_a limitation_n or_o restraint_n be_v inconsistent_a again_o the_o author_n of_o jovian_a confess_v that_o the_o king_n be_v a_o sovereign_n double_o limit_v by_o the_o law_n of_o god_n and_o the_o civil_a law_n of_o his_o kingdom_n 212._o and_o then_o why_o not_o double_o accountable_a to_o god_n for_o break_v the_o divine_a law_n and_o to_o the_o kingdom_n for_o transgress_v the_o civil_a for_o if_o as_o he_o quote_v bracton_n the_o king_n be_v sub_fw-la lege_fw-la quia_fw-la lex_fw-la facit_fw-la regem_fw-la under_o the_o law_n because_o the_o law_n make_v the_o king_n ibid._n do_v it_o not_o follow_v that_o the_o king_n have_v a_o superior_a to_o wit_n the_o law_n for_o that_o which_o make_v must_v be_v superior_a to_o what_o be_v make_v and_o so_o according_a to_o this_o author_n be_v reason_v the_o king_n be_v accountable_a and_o to_o be_v so_o be_v no_o injury_n to_o the_o royal_a
