restore_v we_o near_o thereto_o without_o all_o controversy_n be_v simple_o best_a in_o make_v good_a the_o assumption_n we_o lay-down_a these_o two_o conclusion_n conclus_fw-la 1._o no_o man_n by_o

we_o demand_v whether_o or_o not_o in_o such_o respect_n it_o lay_v bond_n of_o subjection_n upon_o all_o man_n if_o it_o do_v than_o king_n no_o les●e_n than_o subject_n be_v tie_v by_o nature_n to_o

2._o if_o king_n be_v not_o also_o subject_v to_o authority_n by_o nature_n it_o will_v inevitable_o follow_v all_o man_n and_o not_o all_o man_n be_v subject_v to_o it_o which_o be_v implicatory_a if_o not_o than_o it_o follow_v that_o some_o man_n by_o nature_n formal_o be_v bear_v subject_a to_o authority_n and_o some_o not_o both_o which_o be_v repugnant_a for_o if_o nature_n as_o nature_n

deny_v all_o man_n to_o be_v natural_a therefore_o of_o neccssity_n the_o royallist_n must_v either_o admit_v all_o man_n according_a to_o nature_n to_o be_v bear_v free_a or_o else_o both_o king_n and_o people_n by_o nature_n to_o be_v bear_v subject_n to_o government_n he_o must_v either_o admit_v the_o one_o or_o deny_v the_o other_o also_o which_o he_o proud_o affirm_v see_v what_o

all_o man_n thereto_o and_o if_o all_o man_n i_o demand_v whether_o or_o not_o do_v nature_n subject_a one_o to_o another_o if_o it_o do_v ergo_fw-la either_o committitur_fw-la circulus_fw-la or_o

from_o issue_v and_o stream_v forth_o its_o formal_a effect_n we_o can_v hardly_o digest_v it_o how_o nature_n formal_o bend_v its_o strength_n to_o produce_v politic_a subjection_n do_v not_o also_o
