himself_o of_o his_o crown_n and_o dignity_n and_o be_v no_o long_o a_o king_n but_o because_o our_o adversary_n will_v storm_v heavy_o at_o this_o say_v how_o undeniable_a so_o ever_o it_o be_v let_v we_o see_v if_o we_o can_v strengthen_v it_o by_o authority_n and_o first_o that_o of_o a_o wise_a and_o learned_a king_n viz._n james_n the_o first_o who_o in_o a_o speech_n before_o the_o parliament_n 1609._o have_v these_o word_n a_o king_n govern_v in_o a_o settle_a kingdom_n leave_v to_o be_v a_o king_n and_o degenerate_v into_o a_o tyrant_n as_o soon_o as_o he_o leave_v off_o to_o rule_v according_a to_o his_o law_n and_o they_o that_o persuade_v they_o the_o contrary_a be_v viper_n and_o pest_n both_o against_o they_o and_o the_o commonwealth_n so_o that_o it_o seem_v a_o king_n may_v fall_v from_o his_o power_n and_o cease_v to_o be_v a_o king_n and_o he_o actual_o do_v so_o when_o he_o leave_v off_o to_o rule_v according_a to_o his_o law_n let_v we_o now_o see_v what_o the_o force_n of_o truth_n have_v extort_a from_o a_o learned_a man_n of_o our_o adversary_n party_n a_o mighty_a asserter_n of_o monarchical_a power_n the_o famous_a barclay_n two_o case_n he_o say_v there_o be_v whereby_o a_o king_n ipso_fw-la facto_fw-la become_v no_o king_n and_o lose_v all_o power_n and_o regal_a authority_n over_o his_o people_n for_o he_o dive_v himself_o of_o his_o royal_a crown_n and_o dignity_n he_o return_v to_o the_o state_n of_o a_o private_a man_n and_o the_o people_n become_v freeand_v superior_a all_o the_o word_n in_o the_o dictionary_n can_v cut_v deep_a than_o these_o nor_o kill_v the_o cause_n more_o dead_a upon_o the_o sport_n to_o add_v any_o thing_n will_v be_v substraction_n and_o to_o offer_v at_o illustration_n will_v be_v to_o darken_v i_o shall_v only_o mention_v his_o two_o case_n and_o leave_v it_o the_o first_o be_v if_o the_o king_n endeavour_v to_o overturn_v the_o government_n and_o have_v a_o purpose_n and_o design_n to_o ruin_v the_o kingdom_n and_o common_a wealth_n the_o second_o be_v if_o he_o make_v himself_o the_o dependant_a of_o another_o and_o betray_v his_o people_n into_o the_o power_n and_o dominion_n of_o a_o foreign_a nation_n these_o two_o case_n be_v both_o so_o like_o we_o of_o late_a that_o one_o will_v think_v this_o author_n have_v write_v by_o inspiration_n and_o the_o best_a of_o all_o be_v he_o be_v take_v for_o a_o enemy_n which_o make_v his_o testimony_n on_o our_o side_n the_o more_o considerable_a by_o this_o time_n i_o think_v it_o may_v appear_v that_o nonresistance_n be_v not_o to_o be_v take_v in_o the_o rigid_a and_o inflexible_a sense_n of_o our_o adversary_n but_o so_o qualify_v as_o to_o let_v the_o english_a frame_n and_o constitution_n of_o government_n stand_v where_o it_o be_v but_o there_o be_v nothing_o almost_o which_o may_v not_o be_v spoil_a by_o overdo_v nothing_o better_a in_o a_o well-settled_n government_n than_o obedience_n but_o once_o misplace_v there_o be_v nothing_o worse_o this_o be_v that_o which_o have_v it_o be_v universal_a have_v leave_v nothing_o ere_o this_o day_n but_o grief_n and_o lamentation_n chain_n and_o slavery_n superstition_n and_o idolatry_n for_o which_o posterity_n may_v have_v have_v cause_n to_o curse_v the_o servile_a baseness_n of_o the_o present_a generation_n have_v not_o k._n william_n and_o many_o noble_a englishman_n stand_v in_o the_o gap_n to_o save_o the_o nation_n from_o sudden_a ruin_n and_o from_o a_o sad_a character_n in_o after_o time_n now_o let_v our_o adversary_n stand_v still_o a_o little_a and_o consider_v whether_o they_o be_v not_o righteous_a overmuch_o eccl._n 7.16_o and_o whether_o they_o do_v not_o make_v themselves_o over-wise_a i_o will_v as_o soon_o pass_v my_o word_n for_o wisdom_n and_o righteousness_n that_o they_o shall_v not_o be_v capable_a of_o excess_n as_o any_o thing_n else_o that_o i_o can_v think_v off_o and_o yet_o even_o in_o that_o case_n the_o wise_a of_o king_n think_v a_o caution_n necessary_a and_o this_o be_v the_o character_n of_o those_o man_n we_o have_v to_o deal_v with_o they_o will_v be_v wise_a than_o the_o public_a wisdom_n of_o the_o nation_n and_o more_o righteous_a than_o the_o whole_a church_n whereof_o they_o profess_v to_o be_v member_n i_o very_o well_o remember_v the_o time_n when_o these_o man_n above_o other_o be_v continual_o charge_v the_o dissenter_n with_o pride_n and_o self-conceit_n with_o wilful_a obstinacy_n with_o faction_n and_o disobedience_n some_o can_v find_v nothing_o else_o to_o preach_v on_o and_o other_o make_v it_o their_o common_a discourse_n and_o now_o out_o of_o their_o own_o mouth_n they_o be_v just_o condemn_v some_o dissenter_n indeed_o have_v some_o needless_a scruple_n about_o cermony_n but_o these_o only_a scruple_n deliverance_n and_o to_o be_v save_v from_o ruin_n and_o misery_n lie_v heavy_a upon_o their_o conscience_n they_o pay_v faith_n and_o allegiance_n to_o a_o tyrant_n or_o a_o nonens_a and_o they_o return_v malice_n and_o ignominy_n for_o security_n and_o protection_n i_o shall_v conclude_v this_o matter_n with_o a_o sentence_n take_v from_o a_o very_a learned_a pen_n which_o also_o have_v be_v assert_v by_o other_o namely_o that_o when_o a_o prince_n break_v in_o upon_o the_o religion_n and_o liberty_n of_o his_o people_n they_o ought_v to_o stand_v up_o in_o their_o own_o defence_n and_o may_v also_o call_v in_o a_o neighbour_n or_o foreigner_n to_o their_o assistance_n and_o this_o very_a thing_n have_v be_v declare_v lawful_a by_o queen_n elizabeth_n by_o k._n james_n the_o first_o by_o k._n charles_n the_o first_o with_o their_o parliament_n and_o by_o arch_a bishop_n laud_n into_o the_o bargain_n as_o may_v be_v further_o make_v evident_a upon_o occasion_n and_o here_o i_o think_v to_o have_v make_v a_o end_n but_o i_o find_v our_o adversary_n when_o other_o reason_n fail_v they_o betake_v themselves_o to_o the_o bible_n wherein_o they_o think_v to_o find_v their_o unlimited_a power_n and_o passive_a obedience_n i_o can_v pretend_v to_o remember_v all_o those_o passage_n of_o scripture_n which_o they_o have_v press_a for_o this_o service_n but_o two_o or_o three_o of_o the_o more_o remarkable_a i_o shall_v endeavour_v at_o present_a to_o release_n from_o the_o unnatural_a force_n and_o violence_n put_v upon_o they_o and_o the_o rest_n as_o i_o meet_v with_o they_o first_o prov._n 30.31_o a_o king_n against_o who_o there_o be_v no_o rise_n up_o i_o grant_v it_o in_o the_o sense_n aforementioned_a that_o be_v so_o long_o as_o he_o remain_v a_o king_n and_o keep_v the_o law_n he_o be_v a_o rebel_n that_o oppose_v he_o but_o when_o he_o fall_v from_o that_o he_o be_v a_o rebel_n himself_o i_o speak_v not_o this_o at_o random_n but_o i_o will_v make_v it_o good_a the_o first_o king_n of_o israel_n be_v a_o rebel_n if_o you_o will_v believe_v the_o prophet_n samuel_n for_o he_o plain_o charge_v he_o with_o rebellion_n behold_v say_v he_o to_o obey_v be_v better_a than_o sacrifice_n and_o to_o harken_v than_o the_o fat_a of_o ram_n for_o rebellion_n be_v

have_v this_o be_v the_o law_n he_o be_v to_o observe_v but_o he_o disobey_v it_o and_o thereupon_o the_o prophet_n not_o only_o give_v he_o a_o severe_a reprimand_n but_o saul_n leave_v his_o kingdom_n beside_o after_o this_o david_n be_v so_o far_o from_o nonresistance_n that_o he_o arm_v himself_o in_o his_o own_o defence_n and_o about_o 600_o men._n and_o he_o seize_v upon_o stronghold_n at_o engedi_n it_o be_v true_a david_n will_v not_o kill_v he_o cowardly_a which_o be_v a_o noble_a and_o brave_a example_n but_o have_v he_o meet_v he_o fair_o in_o the_o field_n no_o
