distress_v till_o it_o please_v god_n to_o raise_v up_o some_o such_o person_n to_o deliver_v they_o and_o we_o may_v just_o believe_v it_o be_v for_o great_a safety_n and_o strength_n that_o the_o

and_o be_v design_v by_o almighty_a god_n to_o be_v i_o do_v not_o doubt_v the_o truth_n of_o that_o maxim_n in_o politic_n salus_n populi_n est_fw-la suprema_fw-la lex_fw-la it_o must_v be_v true_a because_o the_o good_a and_o welfare_n of_o the_o people_n be_v the_o very_a end_n of_o government_n it_o be_v appoint_v of_o god_n for_o good_a but_o then_o it_o must_v be_v understand_v of_o the_o

rest_n of_o the_o community_n and_o we_o must_v needs_o allow_v this_o to_o be_v true_a too_o that_o salus_n &_o honour_n principis_fw-la necessaria_fw-la est_fw-la subditorum_fw-la saluti_fw-la a_o steady_a reverence_n and_o subjection_n of_o the_o people_n to_o the_o prince_n and_o their_o ready_a assistance_n be_v absolute_o necessary_a to_o the_o happiness_n of_o the_o people_n what_o can_v he_o do_v for_o we_o if_o we_o do_v not_o assist_v he_o he_o must_v help_v we_o by_o our_o own_o wealth_n and_o strength_n if_o it_o be_v do_v at_o all_o as_o the_o governor_n must_v indeed_o be_v wise_a just_a and_o good_a and_o rule_v according_a to_o good_a law_n so_o the_o people_n must_v be_v patient_a of_o government_n and_o must_v ready_o obey_v the_o prince_n according_a to_o those_o law_n or_o else_o they_o can_v never_o be_v happy_a by_o maintain_v and_o allow_v his_o interest_n we_o maintain_v our_o own_o and_o our_o duty_n well_o pay_v to_o he_o will_v redound_v to_o our_o

due_n from_o the_o people_n they_o must_v needs_o want_v that_o benefit_n and_o assistance_n which_o otherwise_o they_o may_v have_v from_o he_o whoever_o then_o rob_v the_o governor_n rob_v the_o people_n by_o consequence_n and_o they_o that_o be_v enemy_n to_o he_o be_v enemy_n to_o their_o country_n for_o so_o far_o as_o they_o can_v lessen_v he_o and_o diminish_v his_o authority_n so_o far_o they_o deprive_v the_o people_n of_o the_o advantage_n which_o they_o may_v have_v by_o his_o government_n the_o weak_a he_o be_v the_o less_o effect_n and_o influence_n he_o must_v needs_o have_v towards_o the_o end_n and_o advantage_n of_o government_n and_o hence_o it_o be_v that_o the_o enemy_n of_o their_o country_n and_o those_o pretend_a lover_n of_o it_o who_o set_v themselves_o against_o the_o interest_n of_o the_o king_n can_v for_o the_o most_o part_n very_o ready_o concur_v in_o the_o same_o action_n and_o pursue_v the_o same_o project_n and_o design_n they_o both_o tend_v whither_o think_o or_o unthink_o to_o the_o same_o public_a mischief_n and_o like_a line_n from_o different_a part_n of_o the_o circumference_n meet_v in_o the_o centre_n it_o be_v a_o false_a

there_o be_v not_o two_o but_o only_o one_o interest_n between_o the_o prince_n and_o the_o people_n the_o welfare_n of_o the_o head_n be_v the_o advantage_n of_o the_o whole_a body_n and_o if_o there_o be_v any_o such_o division_n among_o the_o member_n as_o that_o any_o one_o will_v draw_v more_o to_o its_o self_n than_o be_v due_a or_o will_v withhold_v from_o another_o what_o be_v due_a to_o that_o this_o can_v be_v without_o some_o prejudice_n to_o the_o whole_a among_o the_o member_n indeed_o some_o be_v much_o more_o important_a than_o other_o and_o to_o withhold_v from_o they_o threaten_v the_o destruction_n of_o the_o body_n such_o part_n be_v the_o head_n and_o other_o vital_n such_o be_v the_o prince_n in_o the_o body_n politic_a he_o be_v a_o vital_a and_o important_a part_n and_o not_o only_o necessary_a to_o the_o well-being_n but_o even_o to_o the_o be_v of_o the_o whole_a body_n who_o can_v therefore_o be_v hurt_v but_o the_o dissolution_n of_o the_o community_n be_v endanger_v nor_o can_v he_o be_v take_v away_o but_o the_o ruin_n of_o the_o whole_a be_v likely_a to_o ensue_v as_o therefore_o a_o just_a and_o good_a prince_n will_v often_o say_v to_o his_o people_n our_o interest_n be_v inseparable_a and_o do_v always_o think_v it_o so_o
