can_v learn_v the_o sense_n of_o the_o convocation_n from_o the_o convocation_n itself_o i_o observe_v in_o the_o first_o place_n from_o the_o word_n of_o the_o convocation_n that_o those_o prince_n 5._o who_o have_v no_o legal_a right_n to_o their_o throne_n may_v yet_o have_v god_n authority_n which_o i_o prove_v because_o the_o convocation_n speak_v of_o illegal_a and_o usurp_v power_n and_o yet_o affirm_v that_o the_o authority_n exercise_v by_o they_o be_v god_n authority_n to_o this_o our_o author_n answer_v 3._o the_o doctor_n will_v not_o but_o the_o convocation_n distinguish_v between_o the_o mean_n of_o acquire_v the_o power_n and_o the_o power_n itself_o the_o mean_n of_o acquire_a power_n may_v be_v very_o unjust_a and_o illegal_a and_o yet_o the_o power_n afterward_o may_v be_v very_o legal_a but_o the_o doctor_n resolve_v they_o must_v be_v all_o one_o and_o because_o the_o convocation_n speak_v of_o the_o ambition_n of_o encroach_a king_n and_o the_o rebellion_n of_o subject_n as_o a_o mean_n whereby_o government_n have_v be_v alter_v therefore_o by_o a_o government_n be_v thorough_o settle_v they_o must_v mean_v usurp_v power_n as_o if_o it_o be_v impossible_a for_o such_o beginning_n afterward_o to_o acquire_v a_o right_n and_o to_o terminate_v in_o a_o legal_a title_n and_o till_o that_o be_v the_o government_n be_v as_o unjust_a as_o the_o rebellion_n and_o encroachment_n so_o that_o according_a to_o this_o author_n a_o government_n which_o be_v illegal_o and_o wicked_o begin_v when_o it_o be_v legal_o settle_v have_v god_n authority_n and_o this_o be_v all_o that_o the_o convocation_n mean_v by_o it_o as_o for_o what_o he_o say_v that_o i_o will_v not_o distinguish_v between_o the_o mean_n of_o acquire_a power_n and_o the_o power_n itself_o i_o do_v not_o indeed_o distinguish_v as_o he_o do_v but_o i_o distinguish_v as_o the_o convocation_n do_v that_o the_o mean_n be_v wicked_a but_o the_o power_n and_o authority_n be_v god_n which_o be_v all_o the_o distinction_n the_o convocation_n make_v and_o i_o desire_v he_o to_o show_v i_o where_o the_o convocation_n say_v that_o the_o government_n which_o be_v illegal_o acquire_v can_v be_v thorough_o settle_v till_o it_o become_v legal_a if_o this_o have_v be_v their_o meaning_n it_o have_v be_v easy_o say_v and_o have_v prevent_v all_o mistake_n about_o it_o which_o their_o word_n without_o this_o limitation_n be_v very_o apt_a to_o betray_v man_n into_o i_o believe_v all_o unbiased_a man_n who_o be_v not_o preposs_v with_o other_o notion_n and_o concern_v that_o the_o convocation_n shall_v be_v on_o their_o side_n will_v never_o dream_v of_o our_o author_n sense_n of_o the_o convocation_n for_o 1._o if_o the_o convocation_n mean_v no_o more_o than_o our_o author_n say_v that_o a_o government_n illegal_o begin_v when_o it_o be_v legal_o settle_v have_v god_n authority_n what_o a_o wonderful_a discovery_n be_v this_o that_o legal_a prince_n have_v god_n

so_o for_o the_o same_o reason_n when_o the_o convocation_n speak_v of_o the_o settlement_n of_o power_n which_o be_v against_o law_n it_o must_v be_v understand_v of_o the_o settlement_n of_o

such_o power_n be_v afterward_o legal_o settle_v be_v a_o great_a accident_n and_o therefore_o the_o natural_a and_o obvious_a exposition_n of_o settlement_n in_o such_o case_n be_v a_o settlement_n of_o possession_n and_o it_o argue_v great_a perverseness_n of_o mind_n to_o reject_v that_o sense_n of_o the_o word_n which_o be_v proper_a to_o the_o subject_a to_o which_o it_o be_v apply_v for_o such_o a_o sense_n as_o be_v foreign_a and_o unnatural_a it_o be_v plain_a that_o the_o right_n and_o settlement_n of_o government_n be_v two_o very_a different_a thing_n for_o they_o may_v be_v
