otherwise_o leave_v to_o the_o free_a determination_n of_o their_o own_o will_n this_o be_v also_o call_v arbitrary_a government_n not_o because_o such_o governor_n as_o have_v the_o free_a use_n of_o their_o power_n may_v do_v what_o they_o please_v for_o their_o power_n be_v bound_v by_o the_o law_n of_o god_n and_o nature_n and_o may_v not_o transgress_v and_o go_v beyond_o its_o limit_n but_o because_o it_o be_v not_o bound_v by_o any_o humane_a positive_a law_n make_v to_o restrain_v and_o regulate_v it_o the_o end_n of_o government_n may_v be_v attain_v several_a way_n in_o many_o

several_a kind_n of_o government_n this_o only_o be_v jure_fw-la divino_fw-la as_o be_v more_o ancient_a than_o any_o humane_a law_n that_o can_v be_v make_v to_o direct_v it_o by_o virtue_n and_o

into_o tyranny_n the_o second_o be_v absolute_a in_o respect_n of_o the_o power_n alone_o in_o this_o kind_n of_o government_n the_o supreme_a governor_n have_v as_o perfect_v absolute_a full_a and_o entire_a power_n as_o the_o former_a their_o authority_n have_v the_o same_o latitude_n and_o all_o the_o same_o dimension_n but_o they_o be_v limit_v ab_fw-la externo_fw-la in_o the_o use_n and_o

power_n be_v perfect_a absolute_a full_a and_o entire_a in_o all_o respect_n and_o able_a to_o produce_v all_o the_o effect_n of_o government_n yet_o they_o can_v not_o put_v it_o forth_o and_o act_n

law_n the_o three_o be_v absolute_a in_o respect_n of_o the_o exercise_n only_o in_o this_o kind_n of_o government_n the_o exercise_n of_o the_o supreme_a authority_n be_v commit_v for_o a_o certain_a time_n but_o the_o supreme_a authority_n itself_o not_o translate_v to_o one_o or_o more_o who_o by_o virtue_n of_o the_o say_a commission_n may_v exercise_v the_o power_n in_o a_o arbitrary_a
