due_a authority_n so_o to_o do_v and_o no_o man_n have_v due_a authority_n so_o to_o do_v immediate_o but_o be_v that_o have_v the_o supreme_a authority_n of_o the_o commonwealth_n nor_o mediate_o but_o they_o that_o speak_v such_o thing_n to_o the_o people_n as_o ●e_v that_o have_v the_o supreme_a authority_n allow_v of_o and_o as_o it_o be_v truth_n in_o this_o sense_n that_o the_o spirit_n of_o the_o prophet_n be_v subject_a to_o the_o prophet_n so_o it_o be_v also_o true_a that_o we_o ought_v not_o to_o believe_v every_o spirit_n but_o to_o try_v the_o spirit_n whether_o they_o be_v of_o god_n because_o many_o false_a prophet_n be_v go_v out_o into_o the_o world_n 1_o j●h_n 4._o 1._o therefore_o i_o that_o be_o a_o private_a man_n may_v examine_v the_o prophet_n which_o to_o do_v i_o have_v no_o other_o mean_n but_o to_o examine_v whether_o their_o doctrine_n be_v agreeable_a to_o the_o law_n which_o they_o be_v not_o who_o divide_v the_o common_a wealth_n into_o two_o

spontaneity_n but_o not_o with_o election_n or_o liberty_n as_o have_v be_v show_v the_o very_a stoic_n do_v acknowledge_v a_o spontaneity_n so_o our_o adversary_n be_v not_o yet_o go_v out_o of_o the_o confine_n of_o the_o stoic_n second_o to_o rip_v up_o the_o bottom_n of_o this_o business_n this_o i_o take_v to_o be_v the_o clear_a resolution_n of_o the_o school_n there_o be_v a_o double_a act_n of_o the_o will_n the_o one_o more_o remote_a call_v imperatus_fw-la that_o be_v in_o truth_n the_o act_n of_o some_o inferior_a faculty_n subject_n to_o the_o command_n of_o the_o will_n as_o to_o open_v or_o shut_v one_o eye_n without_o doubt_v these_o action_n may_v be_v compel_v the_o other_o act_n be_v near_o call_v actus_fw-la elicitus_fw-la a_o act_n draw_v out_o of_o the_o will_n as_o to_o will_n to_o choose_v to_o elect_v this_o may_v be_v stop_v or_o hinder_v by_o the_o intervening_a impediment_n of_o the_o understanding_n as_o a_o stone_n lie_v on_o a_o table_n be_v keep_v from_o its_o natural_a motion_n otherwise_o the_o will_n shall_v have_v a_o kind_n of_o omnipotence_n but_o the_o will_n can_v be_v compel_v to_o a_o act_n repugnant_a to_o its_o inclination_n as_o when_o a_o stone_n be_v throw_v upward_o into_o the_o air_n for_o that_o be_v both_o to_o incline_v and_o not_o to_o incline_v to_o the_o same_o object_n at_o the_o same_o time_n which_o imply_v a_o contradiction_n therefore_o to_o say_v the_o will_n be_v necessitate_v be_v to_o say_v the_o will_n be_v compel_v so_o far_o as_o the_o will_n be_v capable_a of_o compulsion_n if_o a_o strong_a man_n hold_v the_o hand_n of_o a_o weak_a shall_v therewith_o kill_v a_o three_o person_n haec_fw-la quidem_fw-la vis_fw-la est_fw-la this_o be_v violence_n the_o weak_a do_v not_o willing_o perpetrate_v the_o fact_n because_o he_o be_v compel_v but_o now_o suppose_v this_o strong_a man_n have_v the_o will_n of_o the_o weak_a in_o his_o power_n as_o well_o as_o the_o hand_n and_o shall_v not_o only_o incline_v but_o determine_v it_o secret_o and_o insensible_o to_o commit_v this_o act_n be_v not_o the_o case_n the_o same_o whether_o one_o ravish_v lucretia_n by_o force_n as_o tarquin_n or_o by_o

and_o irresistible_o to_o follow_v he_o spontaneous_o lucretia_n in_o both_o these_o condition_n be_v to_o be_v pity_v but_o the_o latter_a person_n be_v more_o guilty_a and_o deserve_v great_a

heed_n how_o we_o defend_v those_o secret_a and_o invincible_a necessitation_n to_o evil_a though_o spontaneous_a and_o free_a from_o coaction_n these_o be_v their_o fastness_n t._n h._n in_o the_o next_o place_n he_o bring_v two_o argument_n against_o distinguish_v between_o be_v free_a from_o compulsion_n and_o free_a from_o necessitation_n the_o first_o be_v that_o election_n be_v opposite_a not_o only_o to_o coaction_n or_o compulsion_n but_o also_o to_o necessitation_n or_o determination_n to_o one_o this_o be_v it_o he_o be_v to_o prove_v from_o the_o beginning_n and_o therefore_o bring_v no_o new_a argument_n to_o prove_v it_o and_o to_o those_o bring_v former_o i_o have_v already_o answer_v and_o in_o this_o place_n i_o deny_v again_o that_o election_n be_v opposite_a to_o either_o for_o when_o a_o man_n be_v compel_v for_o example_n to_o subject_v himself_o to_o a_o enemy_n or_o to_o die_v he_o have_v still_o election_n leave_v in_o he_o and_o a_o deliberation_n to_o be_v think_v which_o of_o these_o two_o he_o can_v better_o endure_v and_o he_o that_o be_v lead_v to_o prison_n by_o force_n have_v election_n and_o may_v deliberate_v whetker_n he_o will_v be_v hale_v and_o train_v on_o the_o ground_n or_o make_v use_n of_o his_o foot_n likewise_o when_o there_o be_v no_o compulsion_n but_o the_o strength_n of_o temptation_n to_o do_v a_o evil_a action_n be_v great_a than_o the_o motive_n to_o abstain_v necessary_o determine_v he_o to_o the_o do_v of_o it_o yet_o he_o deliberate_v while_o sometime_o the_o motive_n to_o do_v sometime_o the_o motive_n to_o forbear_v be_v work_v on_o he_o and_o consequent_o he_o elect_v which_o he_o will_n but_o common_o when_o we_o see_v and_o know_v the_o strength_n that_o move_v we_o we_o acknowledge_v necessity_n but_o when_o we_o see_v not_o or_o mark_v not_o the_o force_n that_o move_v we_o we_o then_o think_v there_o be_v none_o and_o that_o it_o be_v not_o cause_n but_o liberty_n that_o produce_v the_o action_n hence_o it_o be_v that_o they_o think_v he_o do_v not_o choose_v this_o that_o of_o necessity_n choose_v it_o but_o they_o may_v as_o well_o say_v fire_n do_v not_o burn_v because_o it_o burn_v of_o necessity_n the_o second_o argument_n be_v not_o so_o much_o a_o argument_n as_o a_o distinction_n to_o show_v in_o what_o sense_n it_o may_v be_v say_v that_o voluntary_a action_n be_v necessitate_v and_o in_o what_o sense_n not_o and_o therefore_o he_o allege_v as_o from_o the_o authority_n of_o the_o school_n &_o that_o which_o rip_v up_o the_o bottom_n of_o the_o question_n that_o there_o be_v a_o double_a act_n of_o the_o will_n the_o one_o he_o say_v be_v actus_fw-la imperatus_fw-la a_o act_n do_v at_o the_o command_n of_o the_o will_n by_o some_o inferior_a faculty_n of_o the_o soul_n as_o to_o open_v or_o shut_v one_o eye_n and_o this_o act_n may_v be_v compel_v the_o other_o he_o say_v be_v actus_fw-la elicitus_fw-la a_o act_n allure_v or_o a_o act_n draw_v forth_o by_o allurement_n out_o of_o the_o will_n as_o to_o will_n to_o choose_v to_o elect_v this_o he_o say_v can_v be_v compel_v wherein_o let_v pass_v that_o metaphorical_a speech_n of_o attribute_v command_n and_o subjection_n to_o the_o faculty_n of_o the_o soul_n as_o if_o they_o make_v a_o commonwealth_n or_o family_n among_o themselves_o and_o can_v speak_v one_o to_o another_o which_o be_v very_o improper_a in_o search_v the_o truth_n of_o the_o question_n you_o may_v observe_v first_o that_o to_o compel_v a_o voluntary_a act_n be_v nothing_o else_o but_o to_o will_v it_o for_o it_o be_v all_o one_o to_o say_v my_o will_n command_v the_o shut_n of_o my_o eye_n or_o the_o do_n of_o any_o other_o action_n and_o to_o say_v i_o have_v the_o will_v to_o shut_v my_o eye_n so_o that_o actus_fw-la imperatus_fw-la here_o may_v as_o easy_o have_v be_v say_v in_o english_a a_o voluntary_a action_n but_o that_o they_o that_o invent_v the_o term_n understand_v not_o any_o thing_n it_o signify_v second_o you_o may_v observe_v that_o actus_fw-la elicitus_fw-la be_v exemplify_v by_o these_o word_n to_o will_v to_o elect_a to_o choose_v which_o be_v all_o one_o and_o so_o to_o will_v be_v here_o make_v a_o act_n of_o the_o will_n and_o indeed_o as_o the_o will_n be_v a_o faculty_n or_o power_n of_o a_o man_n soul_n so_o to_o will_n be_v a_o act_n of_o it_o according_a to_o that_o power_n but_o as_o it_o be_v absurd_o say_v that_o to_o dance_v be_v a_o act_n allure_v or_o draw_v by_o fair_a mean_n out_o of_o the_o ability_n to_o dance_v so_o it_o be_v also_o to_o say_v that_o to_o will_v be_v a_o act_n allure_v or_o draw_v
