subject_a to_o these_o as_o well_o as_o to_o the_o high_a power_n yet_o with_o this_o difference_n as_o you_o may_v see_v 1_o pet._n 2.13_o 14._o to_o the_o king_n as_o supreme_a but_o unto_o

a_o judge_n in_o matter_n of_o estate_n shall_v be_v of_o force_n not_o only_o against_o any_o private_a order_n of_o the_o prince_n but_o even_o where_o his_o own_o property_n be_v concern_v for_o
