A89759	A pathway unto England's perfect settlement; and its centre and foundation of rest and peace, discovered by Capt. Robert Norwood. In this discourse you have cleared and proved, I. What government in its true and proper nature is; and the common errour thereof rectified. ... VI. That the laws, ordinances, &c. of our forefathers, are the onely rulers and governours of the English nation; ... VII. That neither parliaments, or any other, have any right, power, or authority to change, alter, suppress, or suspend the same; ... And in the conclusion, the nature of contracts, and the governments thereupon, made manifest and cleared.	Norwood, Robert, Captain.	1653 (1653)	Wing N1383; Thomason E702_16; ESTC R203007	38,577	71

covenant_n as_o if_o they_o be_v but_o straw_n and_o swallow_v the_o breach_n of_o they_o as_o sweet_a morsel_n let_v it_o be_v examine_v and_o weigh_v to_o he_o with_o who_o i_o make_v a_o contract_n if_o i_o be_v true_a and_o real_a in_o it_o to_o he_o i_o give_v up_o my_o very_a true_a and_o real_a self_n so_o far_o and_o so_o much_o as_o that_o contract_n extend_v to_o during_o the_o time_n thereof_o and_o so_o if_o he_o give_v credit_n to_o believe_v and_o receive_v my_o contract_n i_o do_v therein_o and_o thereby_o make_v and_o beget_v a_o very_a true_a and_o real_a essence_n in_o and_o unto_o he_o with_o who_o i_o do_v so_o contract_v and_o so_o he_o have_v thereby_o make_v unto_o he_o as_o good_a a_o assurance_n of_o i_o to_o be_v his_o very_a true_a and_o real_a self_n in_o reference_n to_o those_o thing_n contract_v for_o during_o the_o term_n of_o the_o contract_n as_o possible_o it_o can_v be_v make_v and_o do_v therefore_o if_o we_o have_v make_v and_o enter_v into_o covenant_n and_o contract_n with_o any_o let_v we_o faithful_o and_o full_o as_o we_o be_v able_a yea_o free_o and_o willing_o also_o make_v good_a and_o perform_v the_o same_o let_v our_o loss_n damage_n and_o detriment_n be_v what_o it_o will_v or_o can_v it_o be_v our_o contract_n and_o it_o must_v be_v keep_v if_o any_o detriment_n damage_n or_o inconvenience_n arise_v to_o we_o in_o it_o or_o by_o it_o that_o be_v our_o own_o fault_n and_o we_o must_v therefore_o bear_v it_o and_o let_v we_o not_o with_o adam_n lay_v it_o upon_o another_o for_o certain_o upon_o a_o due_a examination_n search_n and_o inquiry_n it_o will_v be_v find_v that_o ourselves_o in_o very_a deed_n and_o in_o truth_n be_v the_o proper_a and_o true_a cause_n of_o all_o the_o calamity_n trouble_n sorrow_n

if_o it_o be_v right_o weigh_v and_o consider_v it_o will_v be_v find_v so_o thy_o destruction_n be_v of_o thyself_o o_o israel_n say_v the_o lord_n and_o so_o it_o be_v say_v of_o israelite_n in_o the_o case_n of_o the_o gibeonite_n that_o they_o counsel_v not_o with_o the_o mouth_n of_o the_o lord_n which_o will_v a_o man_n always_o in_o all_o thing_n do_v he_o will_v be_v always_o and_o in_o

upon_o what_o ground_n we_o do_v contract_n with_o who_o for_o what_o use_n and_o use_n to_o what_o end_n and_o for_o what_o time_n very_o a_o man_n in_o this_o case_n of_o all_o the_o case_n i_o

rightness_n or_o righteousness_n consist_v the_o all_o of_o man_n his_o life_n his_o strength_n his_o rest_n peace_n and_o happiness_n if_o you_o have_v not_o a_o just_a true_a and_o even_o centre_n it_o be_v impossible_a you_o can_v be_v at_o case_n at_o quiet_a at_o rest_n and_o peace_n in_o it_o nor_o can_v it_o give_v full_a and_o perfect_a life_n and_o strength_n to_o the_o whole_a circumference_n if_o the_o foundation_n be_v not_o plain_a and_o level_a you_o can_v build_v a_o firm_a stable_n and_o last_a structure_n upon_o it_o god_n be_v just_a justice_n itself_o god_n be_v right_a or_o righteous_a he_o be_v righteousness_n itself_o we_o say_v there_o be_v the_o father_n the_o son_n and_o the_o spirit_n and_o that_o these_o three_o be_v one_o and_o it_o be_v write_v of_o christ_n the_o son_n that_o he_o think_v it_o no_o robbery_n to_o make_v himself_o equal_a with_o god_n god_n do_v certain_o make_v manifest_v himself_o in_o or_o by_o three_o distinct_a working_n or_o operation_n or_o as_o we_o say_v three_o distinct_a person_n or_o in_o a_o threefold_a distinct_a way_n and_o manner_n of_o operate_n rather_o and_o these_o three_o as_o we_o say_v and_o say_v true_o be_v but_o one_o god_n and_o certain_o god_n be_v but_o one_o and_o in_o one_o or_o unity_n consist_v all_o all_o light_n life_n and_o strength_n so_o you_o see_v the_o divinity_n subsi_v and_o consist_v in_o equality_n or_o oneness_n and_o indeed_o otherwise_o it_o can_v not_o be_v so_o doubtless_o man_v be_v if_o he_o will_v be_v and_o have_v a_o perfect_a upright_o stable_n quiet_a peaceable_a be_v in_o reference_n to_o himself_o and_o other_o it_o must_v be_v in_o equality_n or_o oneness_n and_o the_o one_o be_v not_o nor_o can_v be_v without_o the_o other_o as_o it_o be_v in_o god_n or_o the_o divinity_n who_o be_v the_o centre_n and_o foundation_n to_o and_o pattern_n of_o all_o thing_n that_o be_v and_o if_o the_o centre_n and_o foundation_n we_o make_v and_o lay_v be_v

upon_o any_o occasion_n of_o contract_n mind_n this_o thing_n and_o be_v very_o careful_a and_o wary_a take_v great_a heed_n lest_o we_o lay_v a_o ground_n and_o foundation_n a_o cause_n and_o

rest_n in_o the_o contract_n doubtless_o as_o i_o can_v make_v evident_o to_o appear_v but_o that_o i_o hasten_v i_o give_v the_o great_a advantage_n to_o the_o other_o by_o so_o much_o as_o i_o make_v myself_o great_a or_o high_a than_o he_o and_o very_o i_o believe_v the_o time_n be_v not_o far_o off_o wherein_o there_o will_v or_o at_o least_o may_v be_v as_o much_o contest_v strife_n endeavour_n or_o desire_v to_o be_v little_a or_o low_o in_o the_o world_n as_o now_o there_o be_v to_o be_v great_a and_o high_a man_n wisdom_n be_v return_v unto_o he_o and_o he_o return_v unto_o
