Choose the correct answer from the codes given below :

Answer: B

The correct code is a-1, b-2, c-3, d-4.

Hobbes: the sovereign is the source of law; law is the command of the sovereign.
Locke: the legislative is the supreme power in the commonwealth, and laws are made by it with the consent of the people.
Rousseau: the general will is sovereign.
T. H. Green: 'will, not force, is the basis of the state', the title of a lecture in his Principles of Political Obligation.

The other codes swap Hobbes and Locke or attach Green's famous phrase to Hobbes.
