which_o concern_v the_o duty_n of_o subject_n and_o the_o public_a good_n and_o as_o for_o the_o instance_n in_o scripture_n out_o of_o the_o book_n of_o the_o king_n and_o chronicle_n it_o be_v

but_o i_o shall_v think_v that_o if_o we_o may_v not_o resist_v he_o in_o his_o illegal_a and_o arbitrary_a command_n we_o ought_v in_o conscience_n to_o assist_v he_o in_o his_o legal_a command_n especial_o in_o the_o preservation_n of_o his_o person_n crown_n and_o dignity_n and_o i_o be_o sure_a that_o the_o late_a king_n will_v have_v call_v this_o a_o seditious_a and_o rebellious_a

consider_v that_o distinction_n of_o the_o efficient_a cause_n mention_v by_o the_o schoolman_n it_o be_v either_o 1._o physical_a or_o 2._o moral_a the_o physical_a cause_n be_v that_o which_o have_v
