emption_n by_o descent_n or_o conquest_n and_o as_o it_o be_v betwixt_o the_o man_n and_o his_o beast_n so_o at_o least_o it_o must_v be_v allow_v to_o be_v betwixt_o a_o king_n and_o his_o people_n if_o a_o king_n will_v treat_v they_o froward_o make_v no_o due_a provision_n for_o their_o good_a but_o will_v treat_v they_o arbitrary_o just_a as_o he_o will_v and_o that_o because_o he_o will_v it_o according_a to_o humour_n he_o must_v not_o expect_v what_o he_o wish_v from_o they_o how_o or_o in_o what_o manner_n soever_o he_o receive_v his_o power_n over_o they_o thus_o let_v power_n be_v own_v to_o come_v from_o god_n let_v it_o be_v confess_v that_o he_o be_v the_o source_n and_o original_a of_o it_o yet_o i_o think_v no_o man_n can_v fetch_v from_o thence_o any_o ground_n for_o the_o assertion_n of_o either_o destructive_a or_o of_o arbitrary_a proceed_n in_o government_n a_o king_n may_v however_o have_v bound_n and_o limit_n way_n and_o method_n fix_v to_o he_o wherein_o he_o may_v or_o may_v not_o profitable_o and_o effectual_o exert_v the_o operation_n of_o it_o and_o the_o consequence_n of_o his_o own_o action_n whether_o they_o be_v good_a or_o bad_a commendable_a or_o blame-worthy_a will_v be_v imputable_a chief_o and_o primary_o to_o himself_o but_o after_o all_o this_o what_o if_o power_n may_v in_o some_o sense_n be_v say_v to_o depend_v upon_o the_o people_n though_o it_o come_v original_o from_o god_n yet_o it_o may_v come_v immediate_o to_o one_o certain_a person_n by_o the_o people_n and_o as_o god_n be_v say_v to_o make_v king_n so_o the_o people_n may_v be_v say_v to_o make_v they_o too_o i_o know_v that_o this_o language_n be_v throw_v off_o with_o scorn_n and_o contempt_n and_o represent_v in_o several_a print_n as_o most_o odious_a how_o this_o come_v to_o pass_v i_o can_v tell_v for_o it_o must_v be_v own_v that_o in_o the_o old_a testament_n among_o god_n own_o people_n this_o way_n of_o speak_v be_v very_o current_a and_o familiar_a in_o all_o the_o revolution_n of_o state_n the_o people_n be_v say_v to_o make_v their_o king_n thus_o it_o be_v in_o the_o case_n of_o saul_n 1_o sam._n 11._o 15._o he_o be_v indeed_o anoint_v by_o samuel_n but_o that_o action_n be_v do_v in_o secret_a his_o own_o servant_n be_v not_o permit_v to_o see_v it_o 1_o sam._n 9_o 27._o and_o 1_o sam._n 10._o 1_o 2._o the_o instruction_n that_o he_o then_o have_v be_v not_o to_o challenge_v the_o kingdom_n by_o virtue_n of_o god_n gift_n but_o to_o do_v as_o occasion_v serve_v 1_o sam._n 10._o 7._o and_o though_o he_o be_v say_v to_o be_v choose_v of_o the_o lord_n 1_o sam._n 10._o 24._o yet_o he_o be_v say_v to_o be_v make_v king_n by_o the_o people_n 1_o sam._n 11._o 15._o and_o all_o the_o people_n go_v to_o gilgal_n and_o there_o they_o make_v saul_n king_n before_o the_o lord_n thus_o too_o david_n be_v make_v king_n by_o the_o man_n of_o judah_n over_o the_o house_n of_o judah_n 2_o sam._n 2._o 4._o and_o david_n himself_o own_v that_o the_o man_n of_o judah_n anoint_v he_o 2_o sam._n 2._o 7._o and_o ishbosheth_n at_o the_o same_o time_n be_v make_v king_n over_o all_o the_o rest_n of_o israel_n by_o abner_n 2_o sam._n 2._o 9_o after_o the_o death_n of_o ishbosheth_n david_n be_v again_o anoint_v by_o the_o people_n 1_o chron._n 11._o 3._o and_o make_v king_n by_o the_o people_n 1_o chron._n 12._o 38._o so_o be_v solomon_n 1_o chron._n 29._o 22._o and_o rehoboam_n 2_o chron._n 10._o 1._o and_o jeroboam_n 1_o king_n 12._o 20._o they_o call_v he_o to_o the_o congregation_n and_o make_v he_o king_n over_o all_o israel_n thus_o it_o be_v with_o omri_n 1_o king_n 16._o 16._o and_o with_o joash_n 2_o chron._n 23._o 11._o and_o vzziah_n 2_o chron._n 26._o 1._o this_o be_v the_o plain_a way_n of_o speak_v in_o our_o translation_n and_o so_o it_o be_v in_o the_o vulgar_a latin_a and_o in_o the_o hebrew_n text_n and_o that_o these_o be_v not_o empty_a word_n but_o that_o real_a effect_n for_o the_o produce_v of_o power_n do_v depend_v upon_o this_o action_n of_o the_o people_n we_o must_v needs_o think_v because_o we_o see_v in_o two_o instance_n that_o at_o the_o same_o time_n they_o make_v their_o king_n they_o make_v provision_n for_o the_o restrain_v and_o limit_v of_o his_o action_n for_o that_o i_o guess_v must_v be_v the_o sense_n of_o that_o league_n or_o covenant_n or_o contract_n which_o then_o he_o make_v with_o they_o and_o they_o with_o he_o this_o we_o find_v be_v do_v between_o king_n david_n and_o 〈◊〉_d people_n and_o king_n joash_n and_o the_o people_n this_o we_o find_v be_v do_v by_o king_n david_n 2_o sam._n 3._o 21._o and_o ●_o sam._n 5._o 3._o and_o 1_o chron._n 11._o 3._o and_o by_o king_n joash_n 2_o king_n 11._o 17._o and_o likely_a enough_o by_o solomon_n when_o he_o be_v make_v king_n the_o second_o time_n 1_o chron._n 29._o 21._o and_o possible_o enough_o this_o be_v do_v at_o the_o inauguration_n of_o each_o of_o their_o king_n but_o whether_o this_o be_v so_o or_o no_o it_o be_v not_o so_o material_a as_o to_o engage_v we_o or_o other_o in_o dispute_n and_o controversy_n that_o we_o be_v now_o to_o promote_v and_o seek_v for_o be_v peace_n and_o unity_n that_o brotherly_a love_n and_o christian_a charity_n may_v abound_v among_o we_o we_o must_v do_v what_o we_o can_v to_o advance_v the_o good_a of_o our_o country_n people_n and_o nation_n to_o secure_v our_o religion_n that_o we_o may_v continue_v to_o serve_v god_n in_o simplicity_n and_o sincerity_n as_o for_o nicety_n and_o notion_n man_n may_v think_v and_o if_o they_o will_v speak_v either_o this_o way_n or_o the_o quite_o contrary_a if_o passion_n and_o animosity_n heat_n and_o anger_n be_v lay_v aside_o we_o may_v allow_v man_n to_o say_v that_o power_n be_v only_o from_o god_n that_o resistance_n be_v a_o dangerous_a thing_n and_o in_o most_o case_n very_o ill_o that_o passive_a obedience_n well_o explain_v be_v a_o duty_n and_o they_o on_o the_o other_o hand_n may_v be_v content_a not_o to_o urge_v and_o discourse_v these_o doctrine_n in_o such_o a_o way_n as_o must_v give_v we_o to_o fear_v and_o suspect_v that_o trick_n and_o design_n be_v carry_v on_o that_o we_o be_v to_o be_v amuse_v first_o and_o then_o fool_v and_o cheat_v and_o why_o may_v it_o not_o be_v presume_v that_o henceforth_o no_o man_n will_v dare_v to_o move_v the_o people_n of_o this_o land_n lord_n and_o commons_o to_o submit_v their_o birthrights_a all_o the_o interest_n they_o have_v in_o life_n and_o fortune_n to_o arbitrary_a disposal_n from_o none_o of_o those_o wheedle_a topic_n neither_o from_o the_o doctrine_n of_o passive_a obedience_n nor_o that_o of_o nonresistance_n nor_o yet_o that_o of_o the_o origin_n of_o power_n for_o see_v the_o
