these_o example_n out_o of_o scripture_n be_v of_o man_n that_o be_v inspire_v of_o god_n and_o that_o therefore_o they_o have_v that_o call_n and_o authority_n for_o their_o action_n which_o we_o

the_o other_o objection_n be_v that_o there_o be_v now_o no_o opposition_n make_v to_o the_o government_n of_o his_o highness_n that_o the_o people_n follow_v their_o calling_n &_o traffic_n at_o home_n and_o abroad_o make_v use_n of_o the_o law_n &_o appeal_n to_o his_o highness_n court_v
authority_n and_o appoint_v not_o himself_o who_o shall_v be_v his_o vicegerent_n and_o rule_v under_o he_o he_o leave_v it_o to_o none_o but_o the_o people_n themselves_o to_o make_v the_o election_n who_o benefit_n be_v the_o end_n of_o all_o government_n nay_o when_o he_o himself_o have_v be_v please_v to_o appoint_v ruler_n for_o that_o people_n which_o he_o be_v please_v peculiar_o to_o own_o he_o many_o time_n make_v the_o choice_n but_o leave_v the_o confirmation_n &_o ratification_n of_o that_o choice_n to_o the_o people_n themselves_o so_o saul_n 10.1_o saul_n 1._o sam._n 10.1_o be_v
