sovereign_a prince_n be_v often_o contradictory_n one_o to_o another_o one_o command_v to_o worship_n christ_n another_o forbid_v it_o one_o forbid_v to_o offer_v sacrifice_n to_o idol_n another_o

of_o the_o commonwealth_n have_v any_o right_n themselves_o to_o deny_v christ._n but_o such_o palpable_a contradiction_n be_v no_o novelty_n with_o he_o how_o do_v true_a religion_n consist_v in_o

and_o immutable_a law_n of_o nature_n and_o if_o he_o be_v not_o to_o be_v obey_v in_o such_o command_n his_o second_o question_n be_v if_o a_o sovereign_a prince_n shall_v command_v himself_o to_o
