A91298	The third part of The soveraigne povver of parliaments and kingdomes. Wherein the Parliaments present necessary defensive warre against the Kings offensive malignant, popish forces; and subjects taking up defensive armes against their soveraignes, and their armies in some cases, is copiously manifested, to be just, lawfull, both in point of law and conscience; and neither treason nor rebellion in either; by inpregnable reasons and authorities of all kindes. Together with a satisfactory answer to all objections, from law, Scripture, fathers, reason, hitherto alledged by Dr. Ferne, or any other late opposite pamphleters, whose grosse mistakes in true stating of the present controversie, in sundry points of divinity, antiquity, history, with their absurd irrationall logicke and theologie, are here more fully discovered, refuted, than hitherto they have been by any: besides other particulars of great concernment. / By William Prynne, utter-barrester, of Lincolnes Inne. It is this eighth day of May, 1643. ordered ... that this booke, ... be printed by Michael Sparke, senior. John White.; Soveraigne power of parliaments and kingdomes.

evil_a deed_n i_o shall_v apply_v to_o this_o particular_a of_o execute_v king_n unjust_a command_n against_o their_o people_n they_o be_v partaker_n of_o their_o king_n wickedness_n if_o they_o do_v

out_o of_o a_o unworthy_a fear_n or_o base_a respect_n these_o three_o conclusion_n be_v irrefragable_a ●_o my_o first_o argument_n to_o justify_v resistance_n from_o they_o shall_v be_v this_o that_o

second_o 2_o that_o resistance_n which_o be_v warrant_v by_o direct_a precedent_n record_v approve_v in_o scripture_n even_o by_o god_n himself_o must_v questionless_a be_v lawful_a in_o case_n of_o
