entice_v man_n to_o sin_n otherwise_o than_o by_o give_v satan_n permission_n and_o leave_n to_o tempt_v and_o entice_v they_o well_o then_o god_n never_o set_v up_o usurper_n so_o as_o to_o give_v

mistake_v it_o be_v reasonable_a to_o conclude_v god_n think_v so_o too_o and_o on_o the_o other_o hand_n if_o god_n think_v a_o usurper_n to_o be_v as_o much_o a_o rightful_a king_n as_o any_o other_o methinks_v this_o shall_v be_v a_o very_a good_a reason_n for_o we_o to_o think_v so_o too_o for_o if_o we_o think_v as_o god_n think_v we_o shall_v not_o err_v in_o our_o thought_n but_o how_o do_v he_o prove_v that_o all_o king_n be_v equal_o rightful_a with_o respect_n to_o god_n because_o say_v he_o they_o be_v place_v in_o the_o throne_n by_o god_n and_o be_v they_o not_o place_v

of_o violent_a man_n set_v the_o crown_n on_o the_o head_n of_o a_o usurper_n and_o do_v he_o think_v that_o such_o a_o one_o be_v with_o respect_n to_o god_n as_o rightful_a a_o king_n as_o god_n anoint_v king_n david_n be_v i_o grant_v that_o if_o god_n be_v the_o only_a person_n that_o place_v prince_n in_o the_o throne_n if_o he_o do_v always_o himself_o put_v the_o sceptre_n into_o their_o hand_n and_o by_o a_o voice_n from_o heaven_n or_o a_o express_a nomination_n make_v king_n there_o will_v then_o be_v no_o question_n but_o all_o will_v be_v equal_o rightful_a king_n though_o not_o equal_o good_a one_o as_o saul_n title_n be_v as_o good_a as_o that_o of_o david_n though_o he_o be_v not_o so_o good_a a_o king_n but_o since_o man_n be_v concern_v in_o advance_v prince_n to_o the_o

to_o turn_v the_o world_n into_o a_o mere_a bedlam_n add_v to_o this_o that_o if_o all_o king_n be_v equal_o rightful_a with_o respect_n to_o god_n then_o why_o shall_v he_o complain_v as_o he_o do_v they_o have_v set_v up_o king_n but_o not_o by_o i_o 8.4_o hos_fw-la 8.4_o they_o have_v make_v prince_n and_o i_o know_v it_o not_o since_o if_o what_o this_o author_n affirm_v be_v true_a god_n

be_v plain_a that_o the_o head_n of_o the_o church_n be_v on_o my_o side_n and_o i_o lay_v some_o weight_n on_o this_o that_o king_n james_n who_o be_v a_o sovereign_a prince_n and_o as_o fond_a of_o

once_o sovereign_n the_o king_n of_o spain_n upon_o the_o account_n of_o his_o oppression_n and_o tyranny_n hence_o we_o may_v gather_v that_o be_v k._n james_n i._o to_o judge_n between_o the_o
