A44305	A survey of the insolent and infamous libel, entituled, Naphtali &c. Part I wherein several things falling in debate in these times are considered, and some doctrines in lex rex and the apolog. narration, called by this author martyrs, are brought to the touch-stone representing the dreadful aspect of Naphtali's principles upon the powers ordained by God, and detecting the horrid consequences in practice necessarily resulting from such principles, if owned and received by people.	Honyman, Andrew, 1619-1676.	1668 (1668)	Wing H2604; ESTC R7940	125,044	140

which_o cross_v our_o antimonarchist_n who_o assert_v the_o king_n can_v be_v make_v king_n until_o he_o make_v the_o covenant_n with_o the_o people_n and_o that_o he_o get_v the_o crown_n and_o

jehoiadah_fw-mi be_v only_a precedent_n in_o the_o matter_n diodat_n seem_v to_o say_v well_o that_o in_o this_o place_n jehoiadah_n make_v the_o people_n swear_v alledgiance_n and_o fidelity_n to_o the_o king_n as_o before_o he_o have_v make_v the_o ruler_n do_v vers_n 4._o and_o no_o more_o he_o take_v a_o oath_n of_o fidelity_n of_o they_o but_o how_o shall_v it_o be_v clear_v that_o it_o be_v
