and_o therefore_o when_o our_o law_n say_v the_o king_n can_v do_v no_o wrong_n the_o meaning_n be_v not_o as_o i_o conceive_v mean_v that_o the_o king_n can_v do_v that_o or_o command_v that_o to_o be_v do_v which_o be_v real_o a_o wrong_n or_o injury_n to_o any_o or_o perhaps_o to_o many_o or_o all_o of_o his_o subject_n as_o david_n do_v when_o he_o number_v the_o people_n for_o which_o sin_n 70._o thousand_o of_o they_o be_v sweep_v away_o by_o the_o plague_n in_o three_o day_n but_o the_o meaning_n of_o that_o maxim_n in_o our_o law_n i_o say_v as_o i_o humble_o conceive_v be_v that_o if_o the_o king_n shall_v do_v or_o cause_n to_o be_v do_v never_o so_o great_a a_o wrong_n yet_o he_o be_v not_o legal_o accountable_a or_o questionable_a or_o punishable_a for_o it_o by_o any_o power_n on_o earth_n and_o much_o less_o by_o any_o of_o his_o own_o subject_n whereunto_o another_o maxim_n of_o our_o law_n seem_v to_o be_v a_o witness_n which_o tell_v we_o that_o the_o crown_n take_v away_o all_o purpose_n defect_n or_o that_o he_o who_o be_v king_n be_v not_o chargeable_a with_o or_o answerable_a for_o whatsoever_o he_o have_v do_v amiss_o and_o hereunto_o the_o law_n of_o god_n bear_v witness_v also_o for_o in_o this_o sense_n it_o be_v that_o king_n david_n confess_v those_o two_o great_a sin_n of_o adultery_n alone_o and_o murder_n unto_o god_n say_v against_o thou_o only_o have_v i_o sin_v not_o as_o if_o he_o think_v he_o have_v not_o sin_v very_o high_o and_o heinous_o too_o against_o bathsheba_n and_o vriah_n by_o defile_v the_o one_o and_o murder_v the_o other_o but_o because_o he_o be_v not_o accountable_a to_o or_o punishable_a by_o any_o but_o god_n for_o it_o any_o other_o man_n of_o the_o nation_n that_o have_v commit_v either_o of_o those_o crime_n must_v by_o god_n own_o judicial_a law_n have_v be_v put_v to_o death_n for_o it_o without_o mercy_n how_o come_v it_o to_o pass_v then_o that_o david_n who_o be_v notorious_o guilty_a of_o both_o those_o capital_a crime_n be_v never_o call_v to_o account_v for_o either_o or_o both_o of_o they_o the_o reason_n be_v plain_a because_o there_o be_v none_o that_o have_v authority_n to_o call_v he_o to_o a_o account_n for_o it_o not_o any_o other_o king_n for_o all_o king_n proper_o so_o call_v be_v equal_a as_o to_o the_o right_n of_o non-subordination_a to_o one_o another_o and_o par_fw-fr in_o parem_fw-la non_fw-la habet_fw-la imperium_fw-la a_o peer_n or_o equal_a have_v no_o right_a of_o authority_n over_o his_o equal_a or_o peer_n and_o much_o less_o inferior_a in_o

escape_v unpunished_a no_o for_o god_n who_o be_v only_o their_o superior_a and_o therefore_o he_o the_o only_a judge_n of_o king_n do_v question_n and_o arraign_v and_o judge_v and_o condemn_v and_o punish_v he_o for_o it_o though_o not_o by_o shed_v his_o blood_n for_o the_o blood_n that_o he_o have_v shed_v yet_o by_o shed_v the_o blood_n of_o his_o darling_n son_n absolom_n which_o be_v more_o
