grant_v that_o all_o the_o present_a governor_n of_o any_o nation_n become_v god_n ordinance_n to_o they_o by_o the_o consent_n of_o the_o community_n where_o therefore_o any_o person_n be_v invest_v with_o the_o supemacy_n by_o they_o to_o who_o god_n have_v commit_v the_o choice_n of_o a_o superior_a or_o by_o their_o consent_n to_o have_v such_o person_n for_o their_o superior_n there_o be_v the_o ordinance_n of_o god._n and_o if_o they_o do_v admit_v that_o person_n to_o the_o government_n who_o by_o constitution_n and_o antecedent_n compact_n have_v a_o right_a to_o be_v so_o he_o be_v
