that_o the_o one_o contain_v a_o certain_a and_o infallible_a direction_n the_o other_o oftentimes_o lead_v out_o of_o the_o way_n second_o that_o the_o law_n of_o god_n be_v rule_n in_o such_o sort_n

this_o we_o answer_v that_o the_o comparison_n hold_v not_o first_o because_o the_o king_n and_o his_o viceroy_n command_v the_o same_o thing_n and_o to_o the_o same_o end_n but_o if_o we_o compare_v

power_n to_o inflict_v such_o punishment_n as_o god_n do_v law_n his_o last_o reason_n be_v take_v from_o that_o place_n of_o the_o apostle_n where_o he_o require_v we_o to_o be_v subject_a to_o power_n and_o authority_n for_o conscience_n sake_n to_o this_o we_o answer_v first_o that_o it_o be_v a_o matter_n of_o conscience_n to_o be_v subject_a in_o all_o thing_n for_o subjection_n be_v

thus_o have_v we_o brief_o examine_v their_o reason_n who_o think_v that_o humane_a law_n bind_v the_o conscience_n the_o weakness_n whereof_o i_o hope_v all_o man_n of_o any_o judgement_n will_v
