justice_n a_o natural_a reason_n be_v to_o be_v render_v for_o it_o it_o be_v the_o multitude_n of_o people_n and_o the_o abundance_n of_o their_o riches_n which_o be_v the_o only_a strength_n and_o glory_n of_o every_o prince_n the_o body_n of_o his_o subject_n do_v he_o service_n in_o war_n and_o their_o good_n supply_v his_o present_a want_n therefore_o if_o not_o out_o of_o affection_n to_o his_o people_n yet_o out_o of_o natural_a love_n to_o himself_o every_o tyrant_n desire_v to_o preserve_v the_o life_n and_o protect_v the_o good_n of_o his_o subject_n which_o can_v be_v do_v but_o by_o justice_n and_o if_o it_o be_v not_o do_v the_o prince_n loss_n be_v the_o great_a on_o the_o contrary_a in_o a_o popular_a state_n every_a man_n know_v the_o public_a good_a do_v not_o depend_v whole_o on_o his_o care_n but_o the_o commonwealth_n may_v well_o enough_o be_v govern_v by_o other_o though_o he_o tend_v only_o his_o private_a benefit_n he_o never_o take_v the_o public_a to_o be_v his_o own_o business_n thus_o as_o in_o a_o family_n where_o one_o office_n be_v to_o be_v do_v by_o many_o servant_n one_o look_n upon_o another_o and_o every_o own_o leave_v the_o business_n for_o

great_a for_o magistrate_n among_o the_o people_n be_v for_o the_o most_o part_n annual_a do_v always_o lay_v down_o their_o office_n before_o they_o understand_v it_o so_o that_o a_o prince_n of_o a_o dull_a understanding_n by_o use_n and_o experience_n must_v needs_o excel_v they_o again_o there_o be_v no_o tyrant_n so_o barbarous_o wicked_a but_o his_o own_o reason_n and_o sense_n will_v tell_v he_o that_o though_o he_o be_v a_o god_n yet_o he_o must_v die_v like_o a_o man_n and_o that_o there_o be_v not_o the_o mean_a of_o his_o subject_n but_o may_v find_v a_o mean_n to_o revenge_v

assembly_n the_o king_n the_o nobility_n and_o people_n have_v equal_a share_n in_o the_o sovereignty_n than_o the_o king_n have_v but_o one_o voice_n the_o nobility_n likewise_o one_o and_o the_o people_n one_o and_o then_o any_o two_o of_o these_o voice_n shall_v have_v power_n to_o over-rule_v the_o three_o thus_o the_o nobility_n and_o commons_o together_o shall_v have_v power_n to_o make_v

which_o be_v make_v by_o too_o many_o that_o the_o multitude_n may_v correct_v or_o depose_v their_o prince_n if_o need_v be_v sure_o the_o unnaturalness_n and_o injustice_n of_o this_o position_n
