that_o the_o king_n of_o england_n have_v vast_a prerogative_n in_o do_v good_a but_o none_o at_o all_o to_o do_v any_o man_n much_o less_o the_o whole_a state_n harm_n second_o he_o distinguish_v

these_o premise_n 1._o that_o all_o man_n who_o be_v qualify_v and_o exalt_v to_o bear_v rule_n in_o a_o sphere_n above_o other_o man_n be_v so_o dignify_v and_o difference_v by_o some_o commission_n which_o commission_n must_v be_v grant_v by_o man_n immediate_o or_o else_o by_o god_n extraordinary_o and_o immediate_o 2._o that_o in_o this_o age_n which_o know_v of_o no_o oracle_n or_o miracle_n remain_v god_n do_v not_o immediate_o and_o otherwise_o then_o by_o the_o same_o providence_n as_o rule_n in_o other_o human_a affair_n either_o design_n the_o person_n or_o distinguish_v the_o prerogative_n of_o any_o king_n or_o potentate_n god_n be_v not_o say_v more_o proper_o to_o promote_v to_o the_o crown_n of_o england_n edward_n the_o four_o than_o henry_n the_o six_o nor_o to_o make_v a_o king_n of_o france_n more_o unlimitable_a than_o a_o king_n of_o england_n these_o thing_n be_v leave_v to_o man_n the_o same_o providence_n of_o god_n attend_v they_o as_o attend_v other_o matter_n yea_o the_o scripture_n be_v most_o clear_a in_o this_o that_o when_o god_n by_o immediate_a and_o extraordinary_a order_n from_o heaven_n do_v interpose_v in_o design_v saul_n to_o the_o throne_n of_o israel_n yet_o he_o do_v it_o by_o lottery_n and_o do_v it_o so_o that_o saul_n may_v be_v say_v elect_v and_o constitute_v by_o the_o people_n as_o well_o as_o design_v by_o god_n and_o indeed_o since_o all_o prince_n whether_o hereditary_a or_o elective_a whether_o more_o absolute_a or_o more_o conditionate_a whether_o enthrone_v by_o just_a title_n or_o by_o tortion_n and_o mere_a force_n have_v commission_n equal_o from_o heaven_n how_o can_v we_o think_v that_o heaven_n act_v immediate_o alike_o in_o all_o since_o cyrus_n be_v as_o well_o god_n anoint_a in_o those_o province_n which_o he_o win_v by_o the_o sword_n as_o in_o those_o which_o come_v to_o he_o by_o descent_n and_o the_o french_a king_n be_v as_o true_o god_n vicegerent_n now_o in_o france_n as_o charles_n who_o he_o have_v intrude_v upon_o be_v in_o england_n and_o since_o the_o king_n of_o spain_n by_o special_a law_n of_o heaven_n can_v claim_v no_o large_a supremacy_n in_o castille_n then_o in_o burgundy_n in_o naples_n then_o in_o arragon_n what_o a_o unreasonable_a thing_n be_v it_o to_o ascribe_v all_o these_o devolution_n of_o rule_n and_o variation_n of_o power_n to_o the_o immediate_a hand_n of_o god_n which_o change_v not_o rather_o than_o to_o the_o act_n of_o man_n which_o be_v seldom_o permanent_a 3._o that_o if_o we_o will_v suppose_v that_o prince_n commission_n be_v all_o immediate_o draw_v and_o sign_v by_o god_n yet_o we_o can_v suppose_v that_o god_n commission_n ever_o enable_v any_o man_n to_o do_v injury_n his_o charge_n to_o all_o king_n be_v contrary_a and_o do_v inhibit_v all_o insolence_n in_o comportment_n nay_o even_o all_o elation_n of_o heart_n and_o for_o man_n so_o far_o as_o prince_n be_v inaugurate_v upon_o earth_n we_o see_v by_o experience_n they_o all_o almost_o have_v their_o visible_a terry_n and_o boundary_n set_v to_o they_o and_o it_o be_v most_o unnatural_a if_o the_o intendment_n of_o all_o human_a law_n shall_v not_o refer_v to_o the_o safety_n of_o the_o people_n 4._o that_o if_o any_o obscurity_n or_o ambiguity_n be_v in_o other_o law_n yet_o in_o the_o law_n of_o england_n there_o be_v none_o at_o all_o all_o our_o book_n proclaim_v our_o nation_n to_o be_v a_o free_a nation_n and_o our_o king_n to_o be_v limit_v from_o do_v any_o wrong_n and_o because_o there_o may_v be_v dispute_n about_o the_o interpretation_n of_o these_o general_n therefore_o particular_n be_v deduce_v out_o of_o they_o and_o our_o law_n do_v not_o only_o declare_v we_o free_a but_o wherein_o our_o freedom_n consist_v nor_o do_v they_o bind_v the_o king_n from_o wrong_n but_o specify_v withal_o what_o be_v wrong_n to_o the_o subject_a if_o the_o king_n arbitrary_o change_v our_o law_n raise_v subsidy_n impose_v tax_n imprison_v our_o body_n deny_v delay_n or_o sell_v justice_n to_o we_o this_o be_v declare_v to_o be_v wrong_a and_o inconsistent_a with_o our_o freedom_n and_o if_o any_o question_n arise_v about_o our_o charter_n the_o king_n himself_o can_v interpret_v or_o sit_v as_o judge_v he_o be_v in_o all_o case_n take_v to_o be_v a_o party_n and_o so_o incompetent_a to_o sit_v as_o judge_v his_o swear_a judge_n be_v to_o do_v right_a betwixt_o he_o and_o the_o subject_a out_o of_o parliament_n and_o the_o two_o estate_n be_v to_o do_v right_a above_o the_o judge_n if_o need_v be_v in_o parliament_n and_o in_o case_n of_o any_o perplexity_n or_o doubt_n the_o liberty_n and_o safety_n of_o the_o people_n be_v to_o be_v prefer_v before_o the_o prerogative_n of_o the_o king_n and_o all_o interpretation_n must_v rather_o favour_v that_o interest_n which_o be_v general_a then_o that_o which_o be_v particular_a and_o for_o the_o military_a power_n of_o england_n as_o the_o king_n ought_v not_o to_o use_v any_o other_o than_o the_o natural_a liege_n people_n of_o england_n in_o his_o war_n so_o neither_o can_v he_o press_v the_o people_n of_o england_n to_o serve_v in_o his_o war_n at_o discretion_n if_o the_o war_n be_v foreign_a or_o against_o a_o foreign_a power_n the_o parliament_n ought_v to_o be_v consult_v in_o it_o but_o if_o force_n be_v to_o be_v use_v against_o
