a_o prince_n and_o as_o the_o prince_n ought_v to_o have_v this_o in_o his_o own_o person_n and_o his_o attendant_n so_o all_o dignity_n and_o glory_n rest_v in_o he_o as_o in_o the_o fountain_n and_o all_o title_n of_o dignity_n be_v in_o he_o also_o even_o as_o you_o see_v in_o the_o firmament_n 1_o cor._n 15._o there_o be_v one_o glory_n of_o the_o sun_n another_o of_o the_o moon_n and_o one_o star_n excel_v another_o in_o glory_n in_o the_o commonwealth_n there_o be_v some_o knight_n some_o lord_n some_o earl_n etc._n etc._n but_o all_o these_o difference_n come_v from_o one_o sun_n one_o head_n the_o prince_n there_o be_v no_o light_n in_o the_o moon_n but_o what_o be_v derive_v from_o the_o sun_n even_o here_o be_v borrow_v the_o star_n light_n be_v borrow_v also_o and_o when_o the_o son_n appear_v they_o cease_v to_o shine_v the_o star_n at_o this_o time_n shine_v as_o much_o as_o at_o midnight_n but_o that_o the_o light_n of_o the_o sun_n do_v darken_v they_o even_o so_o in_o the_o presence_n of_o majesty_n those_o other_o excellent_a dignity_n do_v not_o shine_v at_o all_o 2._o to_o come_v to_o the_o eminency_n of_o power_n for_o a_o king_n to_o have_v great_a state_n and_o to_o have_v no_o power_n he_o be_v then_o but_o a_o poor_a king_n a_o duke_n of_o venice_n be_v serve_v in_o as_o great_a state_n as_o can_v be_v but_o he_o have_v no_o power_n at_o all_o there_o be_v a_o subordination_n of_o power_n in_o all_o government_n which_o because_o it_o can_v go_v ad_fw-la infinitum_fw-la it_o must_v needs_o rest_v somewhere_o and_o that_o be_v in_o the_o king_n let_v every_o soul_n be_v subject_a to_o the_o high_a power_n and_o the_o apostle_n in_o 1_o pet._n 2._o 13._o distinguish_v whether_o it_o be_v to_o the_o king_n as_o supreme_a or_o unto_o

may_v be_v put_v to_o silence_n if_o any_o professor_n of_o religion_n do_v rebel_n against_o the_o king_n this_o be_v a_o scandal_n to_o religion_n now_o the_o apostle_n do_v foresee_v that_o such_o there_o will_v be_v and_o therefore_o command_v that_o they_o be_v put_v in_o mind_n to_o be_v subject_a etc._n etc._n but_o if_o any_o that_o profess_v religion_n do_v rebel_n as_o i_o say_v before_o it_o be_v the_o fault_n of_o the_o professor_n and_o not_o of_o the_o profession_n for_o the_o church_n of_o england_n do_v teach_v the_o contrary_a but_o when_o man_n shall_v not_o only_o practice_n but_o teach_v rebellion_n for_o by_o their_o fruit_n you_o shall_v know_v they_o this_o amount_v to_o a_o very_a high_a crime_n indeed_o the_o king_n as_o saint_n peter_n say_v have_v the_o excellency_n of_o power_n as_o send_v by_o god_n but_o what_o need_v i_o say_v any_o more_o we_o all_o swear_v that_o the_o king_n be_v the_o only_a supreme_a governor_n in_o his_o dominion_n a_o man_n will_v think_v that_o that_o word_n only_o may_v be_v spare_v since_o nothing_o can_v be_v above_o a_o supreme_a but_o it_o be_v put_v there_o by_o way_n of_o eminency_n there_o can_v be_v no_o dominion_n in_o the_o world_n unless_o there_o be_v a_o eminency_n of_o power_n in_o some_o one_o or_o other_o if_o a_o man_n be_v wrong_v in_o any_o court_n he_o may_v lawful_o appeal_v high_o but_o then_o appeal_v must_v not_o be_v infinite_a there_o must_v be_v a_o supremacy_n of_o power_n somewhere_o to_o rest_n in_o the_o philosopher_n say_v it_o must_v be_v either_o in_o one_o or_o in_o

a_o marvelous_a great_a state_n and_o yet_o the_o state_n of_o venice_n be_v no_o monarchy_n because_o the_o supremacy_n of_o power_n be_v not_o in_o he_o he_o can_v receive_v a_o letter_n nor_o
