enslave_v and_o deprive_v of_o its_o natural_a right_n as_o in_o the_o king_n and_o parliament_n have_v a_o power_n to_o dispose_v of_o all_o man_n estate_n ad_fw-la placitum_fw-la as_o aforesaid_a of_o such_o thing_n they_o make_v they_o no_o judge_n and_o the_o word_n represent_v infer_v as_o much_o for_o to_o represent_v or_o alterius_fw-la vice_n gerere_fw-la do_v not_o import_v as_o some_o

in_o some_o thing_n moreover_o the_o writ_n whereby_o the_o parliament_n be_v convene_v declare_v that_o they_o be_v not_o call_v together_o the_o omnibus_fw-la sed_fw-la de_fw-la quibusdam_fw-la

power_n in_o england_n i_o grant_v that_o they_o be_v in_o thing_n disputable_a as_o aforesaid_a but_o not_o in_o thing_n indisputable_a such_o as_o be_v the_o general_a and_o fundamental_a liberty_n and_o propriety_n of_o the_o subject_a ground_v upon_o the_o law_n of_o nature_n etc._n etc._n concern_v their_o life_n and_o estate_n as_o former_o mention_v 1._o and_o now_o to_o satisfy_v such_o who_o by_o misinterpreting_a some_o place_n or_o text_n of_o scripture_n suppose_v it_o most_o unlawful_a and_o heinous_a for_o a_o nation_n or_o people_n to_o defend_v by_o arm_n against_o a_o natural_a or_o rather_o nationall_n power_n whether_o potentate_n or_o potency_n it_o make_v no_o matter_n their_o law_n and_o liberty_n if_o violate_v i_o have_v think_v good_a to_o discuss_v and_o resolve_v some_o of_o their_o chief_a allegation_n and_o first_o that_o of_o the_o 13._o to_o the_o roman_n let_v every_o soul_n be_v subject_a to_o the_o high_a power_n for_o there_o be_v no_o power_n but_o of_o god_n etc._n etc._n concern_v which_o text_n i_o say_v that_o every_o soul_n ought_v to_o be_v subject_a to_o the_o high_a power_n so_o far_o forth_o as_o that_o power_n do_v lawful_o extend_v for_o god_n command_v no_o unlawful_a thing_n either_o by_o divine_a law_n or_o by_o law_n of_o nature_n or_o by_o law_n of_o nation_n power_n by_o divine_a law_n be_v that_o which_o have_v extraordinary_a or_o special_a appointment_n by_o god_n as_o i_o have_v already_o instance_a in_o the_o beginning_n that_o of_o nature_n be_v ground_v upon_o common_a principle_n of_o reason_n that_o of_o nation_n upon_o prudent_a and_o political_a reason_n and_o consideration_n now_o to_o this_o last_o power_n subjection_n may_v be_v due_a more_o or_o less_o for_o some_o nation_n have_v agree_v and_o covenant_v as_o it_o be_v to_o be_v slave_n as_o the_o persian_n muscovite_n turk_n etc._n etc._n other_o have_v make_v a_o better_a bargain_n for_o themselves_o in_o matter_n of_o subjection_n as_o the_o english_a aragonez_fw-fr etc._n etc._n now_o when_o the_o apostle_n say_v let_v every_o soul_n be_v subject_a to_o the_o high_a power_n etc._n etc._n he_o intend_v not_o that_o such_o as_o be_v less_o subject_a shall_v make_v themselves_o slavish_a by_o undergo_a any_o kind_n of_o needless_a or_o enforce_a subjection_n but_o only_o that_o they_o shall_v be_v so_o far_o forth_o subject_a as_o god_n have_v make_v or_o cause_v they_o to_o be_v subject_a and_o the_o apostle_n infer_v as_o much_o in_o the_o same_o chapter_n v._o 7._o render_v therefore_o to_o all_o their_o due_n tribute_n to_o who_o tribute_n custom_n to_o who_o custom_n fear_v to_o who_o fear_n honour_n to_o who_o honour_n he_o do_v not_o say_v render_v more_o than_o be_v due_a if_o it_o be_v exact_v moreover_o the_o apostle_n in_o the_o word_n let_v every_o soul_n be_v subject_a etc._n etc._n induce_v a_o general_a cause_n of_o obedience_n not_o a_o special_a or_o in_o some_o case_n for_o suppose_v the_o apostle_n have_v say_v spare_v or_o be_v merciful_a to_o all_o man_n for_o there_o be_v no_o man_n but_o he_o be_v of_o god_n or_o the_o image_n of_o god_n this_o have_v not_o prohibit_v but_o it_o may_v have_v be_v lawful_a to_o punish_v malefactor_n so_o when_o the_o apostle_n say_v let_v every_o soul_n be_v subject_a to_o the_o high_a power_n for_o there_o be_v no_o power_n but_o of_o god_n etc._n etc._n this_o hinder_v not_o but_o that_o it_o may_v be_v lawful_a to_o oppose_v tyrant_n usurper_n and_o such_o like_a and_o when_o the_o apostle_n say_v far_a for_o whosoever_o resist_v the_o power_n resist_v the_o ordinance_n of_o god_n etc._n etc._n it_o must_v sure_o be_v understand_v of_o power_n one_o way_n or_o other_o lawful_a as_o the_o 3._o v._o in_o the_o same_o chapter_n and_o the_o verse_n follow_v show_n for_o if_o otherwise_o the_o enslave_v or_o oppress_v people_n may_v free_v themselves_o if_o they_o find_v convenient_a occasion_n from_o their_o bondage_n without_o any_o special_a warrant_n from_o god_n as_o do_v the_o petty_a king_n and_o people_n of_o sodom_n and_o gomorah_n who_o be_v enslave_v or_o make_v tributary_n gen._n 14._o yet_o their_o levy_v war_n or_o rebellion_n be_v not_o reprehend_v but_o rather_o countenance_v by_o the_o high_a priest_n in_o the_o time_n of_o the_o law_n of_o nature_n and_o the_o usurp_a tyrant_n of_o the_o nation_n call_v enemy_n of_o just_a abraham_n their_o assistant_n who_o sure_o will_v not_o have_v aid_v or_o rescue_v his_o brother_n and_o the_o rest_n of_o his_o brother_n friend_n without_o some_o special_a warrant_n from_o god_n whereof_o we_o read_v of_o none_o if_o their_o levy_n of_o war_n or_o rebellion_n to_o free_v themselves_o from_o bondage_n have_v be_v unjust_a but_o indeed_o the_o law_n of_o nature_n dictate_v their_o war_n to_o be_v just_a 2._o another_o allegation_n great_o insist_v upon_o albeit_o i_o see_v no_o great_a reason_n for_o it_o to_o prohibit_v subject_n to_o take_v arm_n in_o any_o case_n of_o tyranny_n and_o oppression_n against_o a_o nationall_n potentate_n be_v the_o text_n matth._n 22._o v._n 21._o render_v therefore_o to_o caesar_n the_o thing_n which_o be_v caesar_n and_o to_o god_n the_o thing_n which_o be_v god_n whereby_o some_o will_v conclude_v that_o all_o temporal_a estate_n of_o subject_n be_v caesar_n or_o of_o such_o like_a as_o caesar_n and_o that_o therefore_o if_o caesar_n shall_v and_o will_v demand_v man_n to_o surrender_v all_o their_o estate_n into_o his_o hand_n they_o ought_v to_o do_v it_o or_o otherwise_o if_o he_o shall_v by_o violence_n take_v it_o they_o ought_v to_o permit_v he_o and_o no_o way_n to_o resist_v he_o but_o i_o answer_v to_o such_o that_o there_o be_v in_o those_o word_n not_o only_o a_o distinction_n of_o thing_n spiritual_a and_o temporal_a god_n and_o caesar_n but_o also_o a_o limitation_n of_o thing_n temporal_a for_o it_o be_v not_o say_v render_v all_o your_o money_n or_o substance_n to_o caesar_n but_o the_o thing_n which_o be_v caesar_n so_o much_o as_o be_v due_a to_o he_o his_o tribute_n money_n and_o such_o like_a it_o may_v be_v some_o critic_n will_v object_v and_o say_v that_o it_o be_v also_o say_v and_o to_o god_n the_o thing_n that_o be_v god_n and_o that_o therefore_o according_a to_o this_o interpretation_n god_n may_v seem_v also_o to_o be_v limit_v not_o so_o for_o where_o the_o text_n will_v admit_v of_o limitation_n as_o aforesaid_a there_o it_o ought_v to_o be_v admit_v but_o where_o it_o will_v not_o without_o incongruity_n there_o it_o ought_v not_o to_o be_v admit_v when_o we_o have_v do_v all_o what_o we_o can_v do_v in_o respect_n of_o god_n service_n we_o be_v but_o unprofitable_a servant_n we_o can_v punctual_o perform_v our_o duty_n but_o we_o may_v give_v or_o render_v too_o much_o to_o caesar_n or_o caesar_n be_v ●e_v ren●●●●ore_o ●_o be_v potentate_n or_o potency_n unless_o they_o make_v it_o appear_v that_o what_o we_o render_v be_v for_o our_o good_a as_o well_o as_o for_o they_o 3._o some_o there_o be_v also_o who_o allege_v the_o 1_o of_o peter_n 2._o 13._o submit_v yourselves_o to_o every_o
