and_o aught_o to_o have_v be_v depose_v and_o the_o reason_n of_o this_o difference_n be_v manifest_a because_o the_o crown_n of_o judah_n be_v entail_v but_o the_o crown_n of_o israel_n be_v not_o

between_o the_o kingdom_n of_o judah_n and_o israel_n after_o the_o division_n of_o the_o ten_o tribe_n whereas_o the_o plain_a difference_n be_v that_o the_o one_o be_v hereditary_a and_o not_o the_o

in_o fact_n they_o refuse_v to_o submit_v to_o the_o usurper_n in_o the_o throne_n and_o adhere_v to_o the_o legal_a king_n out_o of_o the_o throne_n and_o if_o the_o dr._n can_v find_v any_o other_o

there_o be_v no_o incongruity_n in_o the_o expression_n as_o ridiculous_a as_o the_o doctor_n represent_v it_o to_o say_v that_o god_n may_v resign_v his_o immediate_a government_n over_o a_o people_n

not_o to_o meddle_v with_o those_o bold_a expression_n what_o do_v or_o what_o do_v not_o become_v the_o wise_a governor_n of_o the_o world_n i_o be_o sure_a it_o become_v we_o to_o speak_v a_o

and_o then_o why_o may_v not_o god_n give_v they_o those_o kingdom_n he_o have_v overturn_v by_o they_o this_o be_v the_o only_a point_n and_o it_o be_v dwindle_a into_o a_o question_n and_o the_o very_a question_n destroy_v all_o that_o be_v say_v before_o god_n may_v give_v they_o those_o kingdom_n if_o he_o please_v but_o then_o if_o he_o do_v this_o be_v not_o overrule_a wickedness_n but_o confer_v a_o just_a title_n and_o god_n indeed_o be_v not_o a_o party_n to_o their_o wickedness_n because_o they_o be_v righteous_a possessor_n
that_o be_v and_o be_v in_o the_o actual_a administration_n of_o it_o which_o be_v the_o only_a evidence_n we_o have_v that_o they_o have_v receive_v it_o from_o god_n for_o what_o though_o passive_n

3._o must_v not_o transfer_v our_o allegiance_n to_o another_o now_o the_o dr._n will_v not_o except_v against_o this_o doctrine_n for_o the_o sake_n of_o its_o author_n and_o he_o may_v please_v to_o
