exception_n lie_v yet_o you_o urge_v that_o maxim_n of_o the_o law_n that_o the_o king_n can_v do_v no_o wrong_n as_o if_o it_o be_v on_o your_o side_n which_o make_v altogether_o as_o much_o against_o you_o for_o these_o two_o expression_n be_v of_o the_o same_o importance_n it_o be_v all_o one_o in_o effect_n to_o say_v he_o be_v king_n by_o law_n and_o to_o say_v he_o can_v do_v no_o wrong_n for_o what_o be_v the_o reason_n that_o the_o king_n be_v but_o a_o man_n can_v do_v no_o wrong_n it_o be_v not_o because_o he_o do_v not_o do_v amiss_o in_o grant_v illegal_a commission_n for_o no_o doubt_n he_o sin_n in_o it_o and_o do_v that_o which_o be_v moral_o evil_a but_o the_o reason_n be_v because_o he_o can_v act_v nothing_o qua_fw-la rex_fw-la but_o by_o or_o according_a to_o law_n so_o that_o unless_o the_o law_n be_v wrong_a the_o king_n can_v do_v none_o from_o whence_o it_o natural_o follow_v that_o whatsoever_o the_o king_n do_v beside_o or_o contrary_n to_o the_o law_n be_v not_o the_o act_n of_o a_o king_n but_o of_o a_o private_a person_n suppose_v for_o example_n a_o king_n at_o one_o time_n correct_v a_o servant_n moderate_o for_o a_o real_a fault_n at_o another_o time_n he_o beat_v he_o severe_o without_o a_o cause_n and_o the_o three_o time_n he_o kill_v he_o without_o any_o provocation_n these_o be_v none_o of_o they_o regal_a act_n for_o the_o first_o he_o do_v as_o master_n of_o a_o family_n the_o second_o as_o a_o man_n in_o passion_n the_o three_o as_o a_o tyrant_n yet_o i_o do_v not_o say_v that_o this_o tyrannical_a act_n unking_v he_o for_o one_o act_n make_v not_o a_o habit_n and_o it_o be_v possible_a he_o may_v repent_v of_o it_o and_o lay_v it_o so_o to_o heart_n as_o to_o become_v a_o better_a man_n and_o a_o better_a king_n ever_o after_o but_o this_o i_o do_v say_v that_o a_o constant_a course_n of_o arbitrary_a proceed_v so_o far_o as_o to_o lay_v aside_o the_o law_n and_o actual_o change_v the_o government_n do_v vnk_v he_o and_o the_o reason_n be_v because_o he_o destroy_v that_o by_o which_o he_o have_v his_o be_v it_o be_v the_o law_n make_v he_o a_o king_n which_o be_v remove_v and_o lay_v aside_o he_o have_v no_o foundation_n to_o stand_v upon_o this_o i_o say_v before_o and_o by_o your_o favour_n it_o be_v not_o gratis_o dictum_fw-la as_o you_o be_v please_v to_o say_v but_o you_o have_v answer_v my_o paper_n without_o read_v it_o or_o at_o least_o without_o regard_v what_o you_o read_v nor_o be_v this_o a_o parallel_n case_n with_o that_o which_o you_o put_v of_o whip_v your_o boy_n too_o severe_o and_o thereupon_o cease_v to_o be_v his_o father_n there_o be_v a_o wide_a difference_n between_o the_o dissolution_n of_o a_o government_n and_o the_o correction_n of_o a_o child_n the_o one_o be_v destroy_v and_o the_o other_o improve_v but_o if_o you_o destroy_v your_o child_n that_o be_v kill_v he_o by_o correct_v he_o this_o will_v bring_v the_o comparison_n near_o home_n for_o as_o a_o king_n cease_v to_o be_v a_o king_n when_o he_o have_v destroy_v his_o kingdom_n so_o a_o father_n cease_v to_o be_v a_o father_n when_o he_o have_v no_o child_n so_o that_o your_o own_o comparison_n with_o a_o little_a improvement_n make_v altogether_o against_o you_o beside_o there_o be_v a_o manifest_a difference_n between_o a_o natural_a and_o a_o political_a relation_n the_o one_o can_v never_o be_v dissolve_v while_o the_o party_n be_v in_o be_v but_o the_o other_o may_v a_o good_a king_n may_v happen_v to_o lose_v his_o kingdom_n and_o remain_v in_o exile_n that_o i_o know_v you_o will_v ready_o grant_v but_o he_o that_o succeed_v he_o in_o the_o administration_n of_o sovereign_a power_n be_v king_n at_o least_o the_o facto_fw-la and_o the_o

to_o stop_v the_o encroachment_n of_o prince_n upon_o their_o subject_n but_o this_o it_o be_v to_o write_v before_o you_o read_v the_o word_n be_v these_o when_o a_o prince_n break_v in_o upon_o
