conclude_v that_o i_o charge_v all_o ruler_n with_o tyranny_n the_o ruler_n be_v command_v of_o god_n who_o be_v their_o ●3_n ruler_n and_o to_o who_o they_o shall_v render_v a_o account_n of_o their_o do_n that_o they_o shall_v punish_v the_o breaker_n of_o god_n commandment_n and_o to_o that_o end_n have_v god_n give_v they_o a_o sword_n woe_n unto_o they_o therefore_o if_o they_o do_v

with_o the_o rest_n what_o he_o lu_v as_o god_n may_v do_v with_o his_o creature_n wherefore_o i_o conclude_v that_o cerberus_n his_o exclamation_n with_o woe_n worth_a the_o sinful_a generation_n of_o our_o age_n etc._n etc._n be_v not_o worth_a the_o weigh_v neither_o will_v cerberus_n if_o he_o have_v see_v thus_o much_o before_o have_v think_v it_o worth_a the_o writing_n as_o i_o suppose_v cerberus_n against_o which_o error_n cry_v out_o the_o word_n of_o god_n in_o a_o multitude_n of_o place_n manifest_o prove_v that_o through_o the_o grace_n &_o help_v of_o god_n man_n may_v choose_v and_o be_v neither_o drive_v by_o absolute_a necessity_n nor_o compel_v by_o god_n predestination_n to_o commit_v murder_n theft_n treason_n or_o any_o such_o flagitious_a offence_n nor_o any_o manner_n of_o sin_n or_o evil_n whatsoever_o it_o be_v as_o for_o example_n moses_n say_v therefore_o choose_v life_n deut._n 30._o and_o josua_n say_v choose_v who_o you_o will_v serve_v and_o after_o when_o the_o people_n promise_v to_o serve_v the_o lord_n only_o he_o say_v unto_o they_o you_o be_v witness_n unto_o yourselves_o that_o you_o have_v choose_v the_o lord_n to_o serve_v he_o josua_n 24._o but_o afterward_o when_o the_o people_n forsake_v the_o lord_n again_o and_o choose_v other_o god_n the_o lord_n say_v unto_o they_o go_v cry_v unto_o the_o god_n which_o you_o have_v choose_v jud._n 10._o christ_n say_v marie_n have_v choose_v she_o that_o good_a part_n which_o shall_v not_o be_v take_v from_o she_o luc._n 10._o david_n say_v i_o have_v choose_v the_o way_n of_o truth_n and_o again_o in_o the_o same_o psalm_n i_o have_v choose_v thy_o commandment_n psalm_n 119._o but_o the_o lord_n say_v by_o his_o prophet_n esay_n they_o do_v wickedness_n before_o my_o eye_n and_o choose_v the_o thing_n that_o please_v i_o not_o esay_n 65._o and_o in_o the_o next_o chapter_n he_o say_v et_fw-la elegerunt_fw-la quae_fw-la ego_fw-la nolui_fw-la and_o they_o have_v choose_v those_o thing_n which_o i_o will_v not_o esay_n 66._o thus_o it_o be_v plain_a that_o as_o choose_v and_o can_v not_o choose_v agree_v together_o so_o do_v their_o opinion_n agree_v with_o the_o scripture_n for_o such_o direct_a contrariety_n be_v between_o choice_n and_o mere_a necessity_n between_o violent_a compulsion_n and_o christian_n liberty_n that_o black_a and_o white_a may_v with_o
