that_o so_o they_o may_v justify_v their_o violence_n against_o the_o power_n but_o howbeit_o this_o surveyer_n think_v that_o these_o concession_n make_v little_a for_o our_o advantage_n yet_o to_o understand_a person_n it_o will_v be_v clear_a in_o general_n 1._o that_o he_o and_o the_o rest_n of_o the_o royal_a society_n of_o court_n parasite_n and_o slatterer_n speak_v most_o inconsequential_o unto_o themselves_o they_o cry_v up_o in_o their_o writing_n a_o absolute_a and_o indispensible_a subjection_n unto_o the_o supreme_a magistrate_n due_a by_o all_o his_o subject_n and_o yet_o when_o they_o be_v sore_o pinch_v they_o must_v clap_v their_o wing_n close_o and_o draw_v in_o their_o fair_a sail_n &_o grant_v that_o in_o such_o &_o such_o case_n not_o only_o his_o

we_o not_o but_o just_a now_o hear_v our_o surveyer_n cry_v out_o against_o naphtaly_n for_o say_v that_o what_o reason_n can_v prove_v a_o absolute_a &_o indispensible_a subjection_n will_v also_o prove_v a_o abosolute_a &_o unlimited_a obedience_n as_o be_v unwel_v to_o hear_v any_o thing_n speak_v against_o a_o absolute_a &_o vast_a subjection_n and_o yet_o behold_v here_o he_o be_v as_o willing_a as_o the_o rest_n to_o clip_v the_o wing_n of_o this_o inviolable_a sovereignty_n &_o set_v forth_o unto_o we_o a_o limit_a &_o retrench_v subjection_n due_a to_o the_o supreme_a magistrate_n even_o by_o private_a person_n 2._o that_o by_o these_o concession_n he_o and_o the_o rest_n cut_v the_o sinew_n of_o their_o own_o argument_n and_o cause_v they_o to_o halt_v ere_o they_o assault_v we_o and_o teach_v we_o away_o of_o reject_v or_o answere_v they_o for_o when_o they_o produce_v their_o argument_n whether_o from_o reason_n or_o authority_n they_o can_v but_o

way_n they_o think_v to_o evade_v with_o their_o concession_n and_o suppose_a case_n we_o will_v find_v room_n enough_o to_o escape_v with_o our_o case_n as_o for_o exemple_n when_o this_o surveyer_n urge_v that_o subjection_n spokento_fw-mi rom._n 13._o he_o must_v either_o grant_v that_o it_o must_v be_v restrict_v to_o such_o and_o such_o case_n or_o else_o plead_v for_o a_o universal_a absolute_a unlimited_a and_o indispensible_a subjection_n and_o so_o retract_v his_o concession_n and_o if_o he_o take_v the_o liberty_n to_o use_v his_o restriction_n and_o so_o interpret_v the_o

these_o concession_n we_o have_v this_o advantage_n that_o the_o distinction_n which_o be_v make_v in_o this_o question_n of_o resistance_n betwixt_o the_o magistrate_n as_o such_o and_o the_o person_n or_o man_n who_o be_v the_o magistrate_n be_v not_o so_o absurd_a and_o ridiculous_a as_o the_o royalist_n give_v it_o out_o to_o be_v for_o here_o we_o find_v they_o force_v to_o use_v the_o same_o so_o that_o if_o it_o be_v a_o defile_v distinction_n they_o can_v be_v clean_o more_o than_o we_o and_o we_o see_v that_o resistance_n may_v be_v use_v against_o the_o person_n of_o or_o the_o man_n who_o be_v the_o magistrate_n without_o the_o least_o contempt_n or_o wrong_v do_v unto_o the_o holy_a ordinance_n of_o god_n otherwise_o they_o must_v of_o necessity_n say_v that_o in_o all_o the_o forementioned_a case_n they_o very_a ordinance_n of_o god_n be_v resist_v and_o how_o then_o they_o shall_v reconcile_v that_o with_o rom._n 13._o i_o see_v not_o 4._o we_o see_v also_o that_o the_o prerogative_n royal_a which_o they_o screw_v up_o unto_o a_o transcendent_a absoluteness_n and_o supremacy_n above_o law_n be_v but_o a_o mere_a chimaera_n which_o themselves_o must_v abominate_a as_o a_o loathsome_a brat_n 5._o we_o see_v that_o salus_fw-la popul_n est_fw-la suprema_fw-la lex_fw-la the_o people_n saifty_a be_v such_o a_o royal_a thing_n that_o the_o king_n himself_o and_o all_o his_o prerogative_n yea_o and_o municipal_a law_n too_o must_v veil_v the_o cap_n unto_o it_o themselves_o being_n judge_n 6._o we_o see_v also_o that_o they_o must_v grant_v a_o court_n of_o necessity_n in_o which_o private_a person_n may_v judge_v the_o supreme_a magistrate_n in_o order_n to_o their_o resist_n of_o he_o for_o i_o hope_v they_o will_v grant_v that_o in_o these_o case_n the_o people_n act_n with_o judgement_n and_o as_o rational_a man_n and_o if_o so_o they_o must_v say_v that_o the_o people_n must_v first_o judge_v and_o condemn_v the_o supreme_a magistrate_n as_o err_v and_o do_v amiss_o before_o they_o can_v lawful_o resist_v he_o 7._o we_o have_v this_o advantage_n that_o the_o argument_n by_o which_o they_o can_v prove_v it_o lawful_a to_o resist_v the_o magistrate_n in_o the_o case_n grant_v by_o they_o will_v not_o be_v a_o little_a steadable_a to_o we_o in_o our_o case_n and_o for_o shame_n they_o will_v not_o condemn_v their_o own_o argument_n because_o in_o our_o mouth_n 8._o it_o will_v be_v easy_o grant_v by_o all_o that_o our_o case_n which_o we_o have_v true_o state_v will_v come_v near_o the_o case_n which_o adversary_n do_v except_v than_o the_o case_n which_o he_o have_v set_v down_o and_o so_o however_o he_o think_v the_o case_n mention_v by_o he_o do_v not_o come_v within_o the_o compass_n of_o the_o question_n which_o he_o have_v set_v down_o yet_o understand_v person_n will_v see_v they_o be_v not_o altogether_o without_o the_o compass_n of_o that_o which_o be_v the_o true_a question_n and_o true_a state_n of_o the_o controtroversy_n and_o that_o he_o have_v no_o just_a cause_n to_o faith_n that_o we_o however_o he_o account_v we_o discontent_v and_o seditious_a do_v most_o disingenuos_o strive_v on_o all_o occasion_n to_o aggravate_v matter_n so_o that_o the_o case_n concern_v we_o may_v seem_v co-incident_a with_o these_o or_o the_o like_a but_o next_o more_o particular_o these_o concession_n
