Wherein all the maine questions occurrent in both, are stated, disputed, and determined: and in the close, the contention now in being, is moderately debated, and the readiest meanes of reconcilement proposed.

be_v a_o very_a overthrow_n of_o all_o monarchy_n and_o to_o reduce_v all_o government_n to_o democracy_n for_o look_v where_o the_o apex_n potestatis_fw-la be_v there_o be_v the_o government_n also_o it_o be_v against_o common_a reason_n for_o the_o king_n be_v he_o not_o king_n of_o the_o kingdom_n and_o what_o be_v the_o kingdom_n but_o all_o unite_a all_o the_o particular_n knit_v together_o in_o one_o body_n politic_a so_o that_o if_o he_o be_v king_n of_o the_o kingdom_n he_o be_v universis_fw-la major_n too_o for_o the_o king_n be_v major_a and_o the_o kingdom_n be_v the_o unite_a

of_o the_o monarch_n such_o a_o provision_n for_o the_o liberty_n of_o the_o people_n and_o that_o one_o may_v be_v just_o allay_v and_o yet_o consist_v without_o impeachment_n of_o the_o other_o

then_o because_o in_o all_o government_n after_o case_n will_v come_v it_o require_v a_o addition_n of_o law_n suppose_v they_o covenant_v with_o their_o sovereign_n that_o if_o cause_n be_v to_o
