confess_v that_o a_o king_n at_o his_o coronation_n or_o at_o the_o entry_n to_o his_o kingdom_n willing_o promise_v to_o his_o people_n to_o discharge_v honourable_o and_o true_o the_o office_n give_v he_o by_o god_n over_o they_o but_o presume_v that_o thereafter_o he_o break_v his_o promise_n unto_o they_o never_o so_o inexcusable_a the_o question_n be_v who_o shall_v be_v judge_n of_o the_o break_n give_v unto_o they_o this_o contract_n be_v make_v unto_o they_o never_o so_o sick_a according_a to_o their_o allegiance_n i_o think_v no_o man_n that_o have_v but_o the_o small_a entrance_n in_o the_o civil_a law_n will_v doubt_v that_o of_o all_o law_n either_o civil_a or_o municipal_a of_o any_o nation_n a_o contract_n can_v be_v think_v break_v by_o the_o one_o party_n and_o so_o the_o other_o likewise_o to_o be_v free_v therefrom_o except_o that_o first_o a_o lawful_a trial_n &_o cognition_n be_v have_v by_o the_o ordinary_a judge_n of_o the_o breaker_n thereof_o else_o every_o man_n may_v be_v both_o party_n and_o judge_n in_o his_o own_o cause_n which_o be_v absurd_a once_o to_o be_v think_v now_o in_o this_o contract_n i_o say_v betwixt_o the_o king_n and_o his_o people_n god_n be_v doubtless_o the_o only_a judge_n both_o because_o to_o he_o only_o the_o king_n must_v make_v count_n of_o his_o administration_n as_o be_v oft_o say_v before_o as_o likewise_o by_o the_o oath_n in_o the_o coronation_n god_n be_v make_v judge_n and_o revenger_n of_o the_o breaker_n for_o in_o his_o presence_n as_o only_o judge_v of_o oath_n all_o oath_n ought_v to_o be_v make_v then_o since_o god_n be_v the_o only_a judge_n betwixt_o the_o two_o party_n contractor_n the_o cognition_n and_o revenge_n must_v only_o appertain_v to_o he_o it_o follow_v therefore_o of_o necessity_n that_o god_n must_v first_o give_v sentence_n upon_o the_o king_n that_o break_v before_o the_o people_n can_v think_v themselves_o free_v of_o their_o oath_n what_o justice_n then_o be_v it_o that_o the_o party_n shall_v be_v both_o judge_n and_o party_n usurp_v upon_o himself_o the_o office_n of_o god_n may_v by_o this_o argument_n easy_o appare_fw-la and_o shall_v it_o lie_v in_o the_o hand_n of_o headless_a multitude_n when_o they_o please_v to_o weary_v off_o subjection_n to_o cast_v off_o the_o yoke_n of_o government_n that_o god_n have_v say_v upon_o they_o to_o judge_v and_o punish_v he_o by_o who_o they_o shall_v be_v judge_v and_o punish_v and_o in_o that_o case_n wherein_o by_o their_o violence_n they_o kithe_v themselves_o to_o be_v most_o passionate_a party_n to_o use_v the_o office_n of_o a_o ungracious_a judge_n or_o arbiter_n nay_o to_o speak_v true_o of_o that_o case_n as_o it_o stand_v betwixt_o the_o king_n and_o his_o people_n none_o of_o they_o ought_v to_o judge_v of_o the_o other_o break_v for_o consider_v right_o the_o two_o party_n at_o the_o time_n of_o their_o mutual_a promise_n the_o king_n be_v the_o one_o party_n and_o the_o whole_a people_n in_o one_o body_n be_v the_o other_o party_n and_o therefore_o since_o it_o be_v certain_a that_o a_o king_n in_o case_n so_o it_o shall_v fall_v out_o that_o his_o people_n in_o one_o body_n have_v rebel_v against_o he_o the_o shall_v not_o in_o that_o case_n as_o think_v himself_o free_a of_o his_o promise_n and_o oath_n become_v a_o utter_a enemy_n and_o practise_v the_o wreak_n of_o his_o whole_a people_n and_o native_a country_n although_o he_o ought_v just_o to_o punish_v the_o principal_a author_n and_o bellows_n of_o that_o universal_a

he_o otherwise_o the_o people_n as_o the_o one_o party_n contracter_n shall_v no_o soon_o challenge_v the_o king_n as_o breaker_n but_o he_o as_o soon_o shall_v judge_v they_o as_o breaker_n so_o as_o the_o victor_n make_v the_o tyner_n the_o traitor_n as_o our_o proverb_n be_v the_o party_n shall_v aye_o become_v both_o judge_n and_o party_n in_o his_o own_o particular_a as_o i_o have_v already_o
