restore_v we_o near_o thereto_o without_o all_o controversy_n be_v simple_o best_a in_o make_v good_a the_o assumption_n we_o lay-down_a these_o two_o conclusion_n conclus_fw-la 1._o no_o man_n by_o nature_n in_o a_o formal_a and_o antecedent_n way_n be_v bear_v subject_n to_o government_n first_o if_o nature_n tie_v man_n formal_o and_o in_o a_o antecedent_n way_n to_o politick-subjection_n we_o

2._o if_o king_n be_v not_o also_o subject_v to_o authority_n by_o nature_n it_o will_v inevitable_o follow_v all_o man_n and_o not_o all_o man_n be_v subject_v to_o it_o which_o be_v implicatory_a if_o not_o than_o it_o follow_v that_o some_o man_n by_o nature_n formal_o be_v bear_v subject_a to_o authority_n and_o some_o not_o both_o which_o be_v repugnant_a for_o if_o nature_n as_o nature_n subject_v man_n to_o authority_n it_o give_v exemption_n to_o none_o more_o than_o to_o another_o otherwise_o you_o shall_v either_o admit_v a_o simple_a contradiction_n or_o else_o you_o shall_v deny_v all_o man_n to_o be_v natural_a therefore_o of_o necessity_n the_o royallist_n must_v either_o admit_v all_o man_n according_a to_o nature_n to_o be_v bear_v free_a or_o else_o both_o king_n and_o people_n by_o nature_n to_o be_v bear_v subject_n to_o government_n he_o must_v either_o admit_v the_o one_o or_o deny_v the_o other_o also_o which_o he_o proud_o affirm_v see_v what_o

nature_n be_v not_o formal_o bear_v subject_n to_o government_n a_o plain_a contradiction_n indeed_o the_o reason_n be_v if_o nature_n subject_a man_n formal_o to_o government_n than_o it_o subject_v all_o man_n thereto_o and_o if_o all_o man_n i_o demand_v whether_o or_o not_o do_v nature_n subject_a one_o to_o another_o if_o it_o do_v ergo_fw-la either_o committitur_fw-la circulus_fw-la or_o else_o one_o by_o nature_n be_v not_o subject_v to_o another_o otherwise_o all_o according_a to_o nature_n be_v not_o subject_v thereto_o as_o be_v show_v to_o be_v if_o not_o ergo_fw-la none_n by_o nature_n be_v bear_v subject_n for_o so_o by_o nature_n there_o be_v none_o to_o who_o they_o be_v subject_v non_fw-la entis_fw-la nulla_fw-la sunt_fw-la accidentia_fw-la therefore_o it_o inevitable_o follow_v either_o all_o to_o be_v bear_v free_a or_o else_o all_o to_o be_v bear_v subject_v to_o government_n and_o not_o to_o be_v bear_v subject_v thereto_o second_o if_o nature_n lay_v formal_a bond_n of_o subjection_n upon_o man_n to_o politic_a authority_n we_o judge_v it_o very_o strange_a how_o there_o have_v be_v and_o may_v be_v many_o family_n and_o society_n of_o man_n void_a and_o free_a of_o such_o subjection_n we_o can_v scarce_o think_v that_o the_o interveen_n of_o any_o accidental_a cause_n can_v obstruct_v the_o current_n of_o such_o a_o formal_a stream_n of_o nature_n from_o issue_v and_o stream_v forth_o its_o formal_a effect_n we_o can_v hardly_o digest_v it_o how_o nature_n formal_o bend_v its_o strength_n to_o produce_v politic_a subjection_n do_v not_o also_o erect_v government_n among_o beast_n and_o subject_a one_o of_o they_o to_o another_o see_v we_o not_o by_o experience_n how_o natural_a predominant_n do_v always_o produce_v effect_n suitable_a to_o their_o temper_n why_o may_v we_o not_o then_o with_o as_o good_a reason_n allege_v that_o nature_n produce_v government_n and_o subjection_n to_o policy_n will_v have_v also_o through_o its_o natural_a source_n draw_v all_o natural_a creature_n to_o the_o erect_n of_o government_n and_o policy_n among_o they_o how_o come_v it_o to_o pass_v i_o pray_v you_o there_o be_v not_o king-lion_n
