without_o any_o other_o pretext_n or_o formality_n whatsoever_o so_o hard_a a_o thing_n it_o be_v to_o stop_v when_o we_o begin_v once_o to_o fall_v from_o our_o duty_n and_o so_o easy_a a_o thing_n

to_o do_v what_o they_o first_o abhor_v real_o to_o these_o i_o must_v recommend_v the_o history_n of_o hazael_n who_o when_o the_o prophet_n foretell_v he_o 2_o king_n 8.12_o 13._o that_o he_o

as_o well_o think_v to_o awake_v a_o man_n conscience_n by_o drum_n or_o to_o persuade_v his_o judgement_n by_o musket_n and_o therefore_o the_o apostle_n speak_v only_o of_o spiritual_a arm_n in_o

supreme_a magistrate_n in_o defence_n of_o religion_n be_v because_o if_o it_o be_v not_o lawful_a for_o subject_n to_o arm_n themselves_o for_o religion_n against_o their_o prince_n it_o shall_v not_o be_v lawful_a for_o their_o prince_n by_o the_o same_o rule_n to_o defend_v himself_o against_o turk_n and_o infidel_n who_o will_v endeavour_v to_o force_v he_o to_o comply_v with_o their_o

extend_v to_o case_n where_o there_o be_v no_o subjection_n nor_o allegiance_n and_o it_o may_v be_v as_o well_o argue_v that_o because_o one_o private_a man_n may_v beat_v another_o who_o offer_v to_o strike_v he_o that_o therefore_o a_o child_n may_v beat_v his_o parent_n or_o a_o servant_n his_o master_n or_o that_o because_o i_o may_v violent_o resist_v a_o private_a man_n who_o offer_v to_o take_v away_o my_o good_n unjust_o that_o therefore_o i_o may_v oppose_v the_o sentence_n of_o the_o magistrate_n because_o i_o forsooth_o do_v not_o think_v the_o same_o just_a his_o second_o

than_o any_o private_a christian_a have_v resist_v when_o he_o be_v able_a or_o will_v have_v flee_v or_o conceal_v himself_o whereas_o it_o it_o acknowledge_v in_o the_o other_o answer_v press_v by_o
