be_v not_o a_o settle_a government_n i_o despair_v of_o ever_o know_v what_o it_o be_v now_o i_o say_v in_o plain_a english_a this_o be_v a_o mutual_a covenant_n between_o governor_n and_o govern_v and_o give_v the_o formality_n of_o relation_n between_o king_n and_o subject_a but_o then_o in_o this_o case_n the_o king_n have_v a_o humane_a and_o legal_a right_n as_o well_o as_o god_n

such_o thing_n i_o have_v read_v in_o some_o oliverian_n pamphlet_n to_o justify_v that_o damnable_a rebellion_n as_o the_o disposal_n of_o providence_n and_o thus_o to_o say_v that_o conquest_n
