although_o they_o have_v never_o sin_v even_o as_o he_o have_v make_v the_o oeher_n animal_n mortal_a and_o sickly_a although_o they_o can_v sin_v but_o what_o of_o all_o this_o be_v it_o true_a or_o

with_o it_o it_o seem_v rather_o to_o conclude_v the_o contrary_a viz._n that_o god_n irresistible_a power_n arise_v from_o his_o right_n of_o sovereignty_n or_o at_o lest_o be_v as_o i_o may_v say_v warrant_v thereby_o for_o all_o that_o this_o argument_n amount_v to_o be_v but_o this_o that_o god_n may_v have_v do_v otherwise_o than_o he_o do_v or_o he_o may_v do_v whatsoever_o he_o will_v do_v to_o say_v that_o he_o have_v this_o power_n from_o his_o sovereignty_n or_o dominion_n be_v good_a sense_n and_o agreeable_a to_o reason_n but_o to_o say_v that_o he_o have_v this_o power_n from_o his_o sole_a irresistible_a power_n be_v to_o say_v it_o be_v so_o because_o it_o be_v so_o this_o argument_n therefore_o as_o well_o as_o the_o other_o i_o look_v on_o as_o so_o far_o fetch_v and_o unworthy_a of_o a_o philosopher_n as_o that_o a_o modest_a man_n may_v blush_v to_o have_v make_v use_n of_o it_o but_o this_o author_n either_o know_v or_o conceit_v himself_o to_o be_v think_v some_o body_n seem_v to_o have_v presume_v that_o from_o he_o it_o will_v pass_v as_o perhaps_o it_o do_v among_o his_o credulous_a disciple_n for_o a_o demonstration_n although_o therein_o be_v

no_o other_o estimate_n be_v make_v of_o thing_n that_o appear_v not_o than_o there_o be_v of_o those_o that_o be_v no●_n the_o law_n of_o civility_n will_v scarce_o forbid_v we_o to_o say_v it_o be_v a_o piece_n either_o of_o mysterious_a nonsense_n or_o of_o grave_a impertinence_n to_o prove_v his_o incongruous_a assertion_n that_o god_n almighty_n derive_v his_o ●ight_n of_o sovereignty_n from_o his_o sole_a irresistible_a power_n the_o truth_n or_o falsehood_n of_o which_o position_n will_v best_o appear_v by_o a_o few_o observation_n manifest_a almost_o by_o their_o own_o light_n as_o first_o that_o sovereignty_n dominion_n or_o lordship_n be_v a_o essential_a attribute_n of_o the_o deity_n for_o a_o be_v infinite_o perfect_a it_o be_v evident_a there_o can_v be_v without_o it_o the_o prime_a basis_n o●_n foundation_n therefore_o of_o this_o as_o of_o all_o the_o other_o attribute_n be_v lay_v in_o the_o divine_a essence_n itself_o yet_o manifest_v it_o be_v second_o that_o this_o sovereignty_n can_v be_v bring_v into_o act_n or_o exercise_n without_o the_o existence_n of_o something_o else_o beside_o god_n for_o he_o be_v not_o a_o sovereign_n over_o himself_o but_o over_o or_o unto_o other_o thing_n or_o person_n it_o must_v therefore_o be_v conclude_v three_o that_o this_o attribute_n be_v relative_a i._n e._n it_o include_v a_o relation_n or_o reference_n which_o god_n have_v to_o the_o person_n or_o thing_n whereof_o he_o be_v the_o sovereign_n and_o forasmuch_o as_o party_n relate_v have_v not_o their_o be_v as_o such_o the_o one_o before_o the_o other_o but_o both_o together_o it_o follow_v that_o in_o this_o relation_n between_o god_n and_o we_o we_o be_v as_o old_a as_o he_o and_o for_o this_o cause_n the_o next_o and_o immediate_a right_n of_o his_o sovereignty_n can_v arise_v from_o his_o sole_a irresistible_a power_n because_o that_o be_v positive_a and_o eternal_a it_o be_v long_o before_o we_o and_o be_v no_o emanative_a cause_n of_o a_o relation_n to_o we_o but_o it_o must_v arise_v from_o something_o else_o by_o the_o intervention_n whereof_o god_n stand_v relate_v to_o we_o and_o we_o to_o he_o that_o act_n therefore_o
