a_o primity_n of_o share_n in_o the_o supreme_a power_n be_v in_o one_o but_o by_o his_o own_o confession_n he_o may_v better_o call_v it_o a_o mix_a aristocracy_n or_o mix_v democracy_n than_o a_o

not_o so_o great_a as_o to_o destroy_v the_o mixture_n nor_o so_o titular_a as_o to_o destroy_v the_o monarchy_n and_o therefore_o he_o conceive_v it_o may_v be_v in_o these_o particular_n 26._o first_o a_o monarch_n in_o a_o mix_a monarchy_n may_v be_v say_v to_o be_v a_o monarch_n as_o he_o conceive_v if_o he_o be_v the_o head_n and_o fountain_n of_o the_o power_n which_o govern_v and_o

the_o legislative_a then_o he_o fall_v from_o that_o and_o tell_v we_o a_o limit_a monarch_n must_v govern_v according_a to_o law_n only_o thus_o he_o be_v bring_v from_o the_o legislative_a to_o the_o gubernative_a or_o executive_a power_n only_o nor_o do_v he_o stay_v here_o but_o be_v take_v a_o hole_n low_o for_o now_o he_o must_v not_o govern_v but_o he_o must_v constitute_v officer_n to_o govern_v by_o law_n if_o choose_v officer_n to_o govern_v be_v govern_v than_o our_o author_n will_v allow_v his_o monarch_n to_o be_v a_o governor_n not_o else_o and_o therefore_o he_o that_o
