A56187 Jus populi, or, A discourse wherein clear satisfaction is given as well concerning the right of subiects as the right of princes shewing how both are consistent and where they border one upon the other : as also, what there is divine and what there is humane in both and whether is of more value and extent. Parker, Henry, 1604-1652. 1644 (1644) Wing P403; ESTC R13068 55,808 73

frame_n and_o erection_n to_o gain_v more_o light_n from_o the_o part_n and_o fashion_n thereof_o and_o first_o let_v we_o take_v notice_n of_o such_o politics_n as_o scripture_n afford_v from_o adam_n to_o moses_n and_o next_o from_o the_o introduction_n of_o the_o law_n till_o the_o incarnation_n of_o our_o saviour_n then_o let_v we_o inform_v ourselves_o of_o that_o empire_n under_o which_o christianity_n begin_v first_o to_o spread_v and_o last_o let_v we_o draw_v down_o to_o our_o own_o time_n and_o survey_v our_o own_o fabric_n the_o first_o species_n of_o power_n which_o have_v a_o being_n in_o the_o world_n for_o the_o word_n power_n be_v apply_v diverse_o be_v marital_a and_o this_o we_o conceive_v to_o be_v something_o more_o than_o mere_a order_n but_o not_o so_o much_o as_o jurisdiction_n for_o these_o reason_n first_o the_o scripture_n say_v the_o man_n and_o the_o woman_n be_v make_v one_o flesh_n or_o one_o person_n and_o they_o be_v so_o conjoin_v in_o their_o interest_n that_o the_o love_n of_o son_n and_o father_n be_v not_o so_o strong_a as_o this_o conjugal_a tie_n this_o make_v a_o coercive_a power_n improper_a when_o man_n be_v to_o use_v it_o upon_o his_o own_o member_n for_o man_n be_v not_o say_v just_o to_o have_v any_o jurisdiction_n over_o his_o own_o part_n or_o member_n it_o be_v a_o kind_n of_o solecism_n in_o nature_n ubi_fw-la tu_fw-la caius_n ibi_fw-la ego_fw-la caia_n so_o say_v the_o old_a roman_a law_n and_o god_n in_o the_o five_o commandment_n allow_v the_o same_o degree_n of_o honour_n to_o the_o mother_n as_o to_o the_o father_n second_o if_o the_o husband_n have_v such_o a_o coercive_a power_n it_o be_v so_o arbitrary_a that_o he_o may_v proceed_v to_o what_o degree_n of_o rigour_n he_o please_v even_o to_o death_n itself_o for_o as_o he_o have_v no_o law_n to_o bound_v he_o so_o he_o have_v no_o equallito_fw-la control_v he_o nay_o he_o be_v not_o judge_v only_o but_o informer_n witness_n and_o executioner_n also_o and_o nothing_o can_v be_v more_o extreme_a and_o rigid_a than_o this_o three_o the_o wife_n admit_v such_o a_o jurisdiction_n of_o the_o husband_n if_o in_o all_o case_n remediless_a and_o destitute_a of_o appeal_n though_o there_o be_v more_o bond_n of_o duty_n and_o awe_n to_o restrain_v she_o from_o be_v injurious_a disobedient_a and_o unnatural_a to_o her_o husband_n then_o to_o withhold_v her_o husband_n from_o abase_v his_o authority_n and_o this_o ought_v rather_o to_o exempt_v she_o than_o he_o yet_o in_o this_o case_n for_o he_o there_o be_v no_o control_n and_o for_o she_o there_o be_v no_o redress_n four_o there_o be_v no_o mention_n precept_n or_o precedent_n in_o scripture_n to_o countenance_v any_o coercion_n of_o this_o nature_n unless_o we_o will_v call_v that_o of_o divorce_n and_o repudiation_n so_o and_o that_o also_o seem_v discountenance_v by_o our_o saviour_n except_o in_o case_n of_o adultery_n five_o we_o see_v in_o all_o nation_n the_o power_n of_o husband_n be_v regulate_v by_o the_o public_a civil_a power_n which_o if_o it_o be_v from_o nature_n before_o civil_a power_n it_o can_v not_o just_o be_v repeal_v nor_o merit_n to_o be_v alter_v contra_fw-la jus_fw-la naturale_fw-la non_fw-la valet_fw-la dispositio_fw-la humana_fw-la when_o vashti_n the_o empress_n will_v not_o submit_v to_o the_o command_n of_o he_o who_o be_v both_o her_o husband_n and_o prince_n a_o law_n be_v make_v to_o punish_v that_o contempt_n and_o the_o like_a offence_n and_o till_o that_o law_n be_v make_v it_o be_v not_o think_v fit_a that_o the_o jurisdiction_n either_o or_o husband_n or_o prince_n shall_v be_v exercise_v against_o she_o it_o be_v sufficient_a therefore_o that_o nature_n teach_v wife_n to_o look_v upon_o their_o husband_n interest_n as_o their_o own_o and_o their_o person_n as_o themselves_o and_o to_o acknowledge_v they_o their_o lord_n as_o god_n have_v endue_v they_o with_o more_o majesty_n strength_n and_o noble_a part_n and_o to_o be_v submiss_a as_o they_o be_v create_v of_o and_o for_o man_n and_o if_o then_o nature_n prevail_v not_o recourse_n must_v be_v have_v to_o a_o impartial_a judicature_n where_o either_o party_n may_v be_v indifferent_o hear_v for_o there_o be_v no_o more_o justice_n intend_v to_o the_o one_o then_o to_o the_o other_o nor_o can_v injustice_n be_v more_o fear_v from_o the_o one_o than_o the_o other_o so_o much_o concerning_o marital_a power_n and_o to_o show_v that_o nothing_o can_v be_v right_o extract_v out_o of_o it_o for_o the_o licens_n of_o arbitrary_a rule_n in_o the_o state_n wherefore_o i_o pass_v to_o paternal_a power_n the_o second_o species_n of_o power_n which_o succeed_v in_o the_o world_n be_v that_o which_o parent_n have_v over_o their_o child_n and_o this_o also_o we_o conceive_v to_o exceed_v mere_a order_n but_o not_o to_o equal_a jurisdiction_n or_o at_o least_o absolute_a jurisdiction_n for_o these_o reason_n first_o because_o it_o
