In which, answer is also given to all objections that do arise, either directly, or collaterally concerning the same. All which is referred to the judicious reader. by J.M. C.L.

i_o have_v show_v his_o oath_n and_o the_o law_n of_o the_o land_n tie_v his_o majesty_n to_o do_v justice_n to_o his_o people_n and_o the_o grant_n of_o new_a law_n unto_o they_o upon_o their_o

it_o thus_o that_o the_o king_n have_v make_v a_o breach_n of_o that_o trust_v repose_v in_o he_o by_o god_n and_o his_o people_n as_o in_o truth_n i_o have_v clear_v it_o unto_o you_o then_o none_o so_o proper_a to_o supply_v this_o defect_n in_o his_o majesty_n by_o the_o dispose_n of_o the_o militia_n for_o the_o defence_n and_o protection_n of_o the_o king_n &_o kingdom_n as_o the_o

but_o here_o it_o may_v be_v object_v that_o the_o king_n derive_v his_o crown_n and_o regal_a power_n from_o god_n and_o that_o therefore_o he_o be_v responsible_a to_o god_n alone_o for_o his_o action_n and_o not_o to_o man_n to_o this_o i_o answer_v that_o it_o be_v a_o most_o strange_a episcopal_a and_o illegal_a objection_n for_o what_o be_v this_o but_o the_o attribute_v of_o a_o power_n to_o the_o king_n above_o law_n and_o the_o give_v of_o he_o such_o a_o prerogative_n that_o shall_v not_o be_v subject_a to_o those_o constitution_n which_o his_o predecessor_n before_o he_o have_v be_v and_o though_o it_o shall_v be_v admit_v that_o as_o all_o power_n be_v derive_v original_o from_o god_n so_o especial_o this_o yet_o it_o do_v not_o follow_v that_o it_o be_v therefore_o

to_o maintain_v and_o observe_v as_o the_o king_n of_o england_n do_v and_o therefore_o it_o must_v needs_o be_v that_o their_o power_n must_v be_v more_o absolute_a which_o be_v not_o circumscribe_v within_o the_o bound_n and_o limit_n of_o any_o humane_a law_n but_o now_o the_o king_n of_o england_n have_v subject_v themselves_o to_o the_o law_n of_o the_o land_n and_o receive_v their_o crown_n with_o that_o trust_n and_o tacit_a condition_n of_o defend_v of_o the_o law_n life_n and_o liberty_n of_o their_o subject_n the_o law_n be_v idle_a and_o vain_a if_o there_o shall_v be_v none_o that_o shall_v have_v this_o power_n for_o the_o breach_n of_o this_o trust_n by_o his_o majesty_n to_o interpose_v for_o the_o secure_n of_o he_o his_o law_n and_o people_n and_o if_o this_o divine_a

their_o way_n upon_o the_o same_o ground_n advance_v the_o mitre_n above_o the_o crown_n god_n open_v the_o king_n eye_n that_o he_o may_v see_v and_o acknowledge_v himself_o subject_a to_o the_o

under_o god_n and_o the_o law_n now_o i_o conceive_v that_o it_o be_v manifest_a that_o the_o king_n be_v entrust_v with_o the_o law_n life_n liberty_n and_o estate_n of_o his_o subject_n all_o which_o he_o of_o right_a aught_o to_o defend_v in_o peace_n and_o tranquillity_n as_o he_o also_o by_o his_o oath_n be_v bind_v and_o therefore_o bracton_n say_v ●_o bract._n foe_o 55._o ●_o
