command_n be_v not_o issue_v by_o the_o keeper_n surreptitious_o or_o of_o his_o own_o head_n and_o against_o the_o prince_n mind_n and_o law_n but_o so_o as_o the_o prince_n himself_z prudens_fw-la

permission_n be_v no_o more_o than_o permission_n and_o not_o jumble_v permit_v and_o command_v together_o in_o his_o contradictious_a notion_n of_o command_v permissive_o for_o if_o he_o think_v to_o get_v off_o by_o call_v this_o permission_n a_o effectual_a permission_n his_o device_n will_v fail_v he_o see_v the_o sin_n which_o god_n permit_v be_v effectual_o permit_v if_o he_o will_v so_o

the_o secondary_a cause_n namely_o finner_n themselves_o now_o though_o god_n know_v that_o if_o he_o withdraw_v his_o restrain_v goodness_n those_o secondary_a cause_n will_v certain_o produce_v

in_o his_o 18_o sect._n he_o sum_v up_o what_o he_o have_v premise_v in_o five_o particular_n in_o the_o four_o whereof_o he_o fall_v upon_o a_o new_a shift_n to_o palliate_v the_o odiousness_n of_o
