growth_n and_o fruit_n be_v not_o more_o manifest_a than_o a_o easy_a unity_n in_o their_o juice_n but_o if_o you_o will_v by_o a_o near_a instruction_n see_v the_o obedience_n of_o the_o creature_n it_o disjoin_v to_o return_v to_o unity_n you_o may_v from_o yourselves_o instruct_v yourselves_o and_o when_o man_n body_n fals-off_a from_o his_o soul_n in_o that_o one_o dis-union_n behold_v two_o

that_o which_o be_v the_o food_n and_o curse_n of_o the_o serpent_n or_o that_o into_o which_o every_o beast_n must_v be_v confound_v that_o if_o the_o ash_n of_o alexander_n and_o his_o bucephalus_n

message_n to_o its_o own_o body_n which_o it_o will_v take_v up_o as_o a_o angel_n will_v take_v up_o both_o the_o body_n and_o soul_n but_o because_o the_o soul_n can_v ascend_v high_o by_o contemplation_n than_o it_o can_v by_o essence_n it_o may_v behold_v the_o beginning_n of_o unity_n in_o all_o thing_n by_o behold_v he_o who_o be_v the_o begin_n of_o all_o thing_n in_o who_o we_o

partly_o beget_v his_o own_o likeness_n be_v make_v a_o deputy_n creator_n and_o therefore_o he_o be_v a_o king_n because_o he_o be_v a_o father_n a_o kingdom_n by_o nature_n be_v but_o a_o enlarge_a

the_o law_n of_o god_n which_o command_v our_o obedience_n to_o a_o king_n command_v it_o for_o he_o by_o the_o title_n of_o a_o father_n adam_n be_v by_o god_n and_o nature_n the_o king_n of_o

though_o it_o do_v not_o see_v a_o just_a cause_n why_o he_o shall_v not_o succeed_v and_o though_o the_o divine_a justice_n change_v the_o person_n yet_o it_o change_v not_o the_o law_n it_o do_v interrupt_v it_o but_o not_o abrogate_v it_o and_o therefore_o the_o royalty_n go_v still_o with_o the_o eldership_n thus_o he_o that_o be_v the_o first_o king_n be_v before_o his_o people_n and_o this_o agree_v with_o the_o course_n of_o nature_n by_o who_o instruction_n we_o know_v that_o in_o the_o method_n of_o every_o birth_n which_o be_v not_o perverse_a the_o head_n be_v elder_a than_o the_o body_n as_o then_o both_o angel_n and_o man_n take_v their_o beginning_n from_o one_o god_n so_o all_o other_o man_n take_v their_o beginning_n from_o one_o man_n and_o god_n have_v not_o only_o honour_v this_o unity_n in_o succession_n but_o also_o preserve_v it_o by_o succession_n so_o some_o king_n supply_n birth_n right_a by_o victory_n and_o some_o by_o election_n though_o to_o elect_v a_o king_n be_v as_o much_o news_n to_o nature_n as_o to_o adopt_v a_o father_n and_o it_o do_v first_o arise_v from_o necessity_n and_o conveniency_n in_o family_n who_o the_o blessing_n of_o

in_o the_o wisdom_n of_o his_o divine_a indulgence_n do_v grant_v their_o desire_n and_o chastise_v it_o give_v they_o a_o king_n by_o choice_n but_o it_o be_v also_o by_o his_o own_o choice_n he_o do_v not_o in_o the_o election_n commend_v election_n but_o monarchy_n which_o make_v family_n so_o wise_a as_o to_o become_v a_o nation_n nay_o which_o make_v nation_n so_o wise_a as_o to_o become_v a_o nation_n and_o by_o the_o witty_a happiness_n of_o unity_n to_o prove_v one_o to_o be_v strong_a than_o two_o it_o be_v as_o great_a a_o difficulty_n as_o a_o blessing_n for_o brethren_n to_o
