his_o chain_n of_o contradiction_n discover_v but_o good_a reader_n observe_v with_o i_o how_o many_o contradiction_n be_v crowd_v together_o in_o one_o page_n first_o a_o acquire_v dominion_n be_v by_o force_n and_o that_o contradict_v because_o that_o a_o dominion_n be_v acquire_v by_o generation_n which_o be_v not_o a_o force_a but_o a_o most_o natural_a act_n and_o that_o be_v again_o contradict_v because_o not_o generation_n but_o consent_n give_v the_o dominion_n and_o this_o which_o he_o call_v consent_n be_v not_o such_o a_o thing_n as_o belong_v to_o a_o acquire_v dominion_n for_o that_o consent_n be_v only_o a_o consent_n to_o that_o government_n for_o fear_n of_o the_o conqueror_n but_o this_o consent_n be_v for_o love_n of_o his_o own_o accommodation_n or_o out_o of_o that_o reverential_a awe_n which_o child_n have_v to_o their_o parent_n and_o this_o be_v in_o nothing_o like_o the_o other_o and_o sure_o if_o it_o participate_v of_o either_o it_o most_o resemble_v the_o consent_n which_o he_o imagine_v to_o be_v in_o a_o institute_v commonwealth_n and_o therefore_o not_o to_o be_v rank_v under_o the_o acquisite_a sect_n iii_o mr._n hobbs_n his_o constant_a abuse_n of_o scripture_n note_v the_o command_n of_o the_o mother_n to_o be_v obey_v in_o subordination_n to_o the_o father_n in_o who_o the_o obedience_n of_o child_n be_v terminate_v his_o iterate_a quarrel_v with_o scripture_n rule_n of_o government_n to_o be_v proportionable_a to_o general_a emergency_n but_o let_v we_o go_v on_o with_o he_o for_o say_v he_o as_o to_o the_o generation_n god_n have_v ordain_v to_o man_n a_o helper_n and_o there_o be_v always_o two_o that_o be_v equal_o parent_n the_o dominion_n therefore_o over_o the_o child_n shall_v belong_v equal_o to_o they_o both_o and_o he_o be_v equal_o subject_a to_o both_o which_o be_v impossible_a for_o no_o man_n can_v obey_v two_o master_n to_o begin_v where_o he_o end_v he_o do_v abuse_v scripture_n wheresoever_o it_o cross_v his_o way_n as_o it_o do_v very_o often_o no_o man_n can_v serve_v two_o master_n but_o in_o every_o family_n a_o man_n serve_v a_o master_n and_o a_o mistress_n there_o can_v be_v two_o supremes_n but_o in_o a_o oeconomical_a dominion_n the_o man_n be_v above_o the_o woman_n and_o if_o the_o woman_n command_v contrary_a to_o the_o man_n the_o man_n command_n be_v to_o be_v obey_v and_o the_o woman_n herself_o be_v to_o be_v obedient_a to_o the_o man_n the_o mother_n to_o the_o father_n i_o but_o say_v he_o they_o be_v equal_o principle_n of_o generation_n therefore_o if_o the_o right_n of_o dominion_n be_v a_o appendant_a to_o generation_n it_o must_v equal_o belong_v to_o they_o both_o i_o will_v not_o dispute_v the_o nature_n of_o generation_n which_o philosopher_n and_o physician_n have_v abundant_o do_v but_o suppose_v that_o in_o the_o case_n it_o exact_v a_o obedience_n to_o they_o both_o yet_o with_o a_o subordination_n to_o the_o father_n which_o must_v clear_o appear_v in_o this_o because_o the_o woman_n herself_o must_v be_v obedient_a to_o the_o father_n as_o will_v appear_v in_o the_o two_o first_o principle_n of_o generation_n adam_n and_o evah_n god_n give_v they_o that_o law_n thy_o desire_n shall_v be_v to_o thy_o husband_n and_o he_o shall_v rule_v over_o thou_o gen._n 3.16_o now_o than_o if_o the_o man_n rule_v the_o woman_n then_o in_o the_o subordination_n of_o government_n she_o can_v equal_o share_v in_o that_o dominion_n with_o he_o who_o be_v governor_n of_o she_o so_o that_o although_o the_o child_n have_v from_o his_o generation_n two_o person_n to_o obey_v yet_o this_o obedience_n be_v terminate_v in_o one_o the_o father_n who_o be_v supreme_a to_o who_o the_o mother_n also_o be_v subject_a he_o proceed_v and_o whereas_o some_o have_v attribute_v the_o dominion_n to_o the_o man_n only_o as_o be_v of_o the_o more_o excellent_a sex_n they_o misreckon_v it_o for_o there_o be_v not_o always_o that_o difference_n of_o strength_n and_o prudence_n between_o the_o man_n and_o the_o woman_n as_o that_o the_o right_n can_v be_v determine_v without_o war_n thus_o this_o author_n have_v a_o spite_n to_o scripture_n and_o hope_n with_o a_o flash_n of_o wicked_a wit_n to_o divert_v man_n from_o that_o due_a observance_n which_o they_o ought_v to_o have_v of_o those_o duty_n which_o be_v there_o require_v or_o at_o the_o least_o to_o diminish_v that_o rational_a obedience_n which_o man_n shall_v give_v to_o it_o it_o may_v be_v some_o do_v attribute_v the_o obedience_n to_o the_o man_n only_o out_o
