The armies vindication, wherein these five things are proved [[electronic resource] ] : first, that there is a supream and soveraign power alwayes residing in the people, over and above kings. Secondly, that all kings have been, and still are, subject to, and under law. Thirdly, that the people have power, not only to convent, but to censure, depose and punish their kings for their tyranny and misgovernment. Fourthly, that no nation is so strictly tied to any one form of civill government or law, but it is lawfull for the people to alter the same to another form or kind upon occasion. Fiftly, amongst all formes of civill government, aristocratical or popular is best and safest for the people. Besides, here is shewed, that to claim any crown by an hereditary or successive title, is upon a false and unjust ground. In reply to Mr. William Sedgwick. / / Published for the kingdomes satisfaction by Eleutherius Philodemius |
