by_o philosopher_n and_o draw_v from_o moral_n of_o the_o heathen_a much_o more_o must_v it_o hold_v in_o the_o christian_a common_a wealth_n that_o the_o public_a good_a must_v be_v so_o prefer_v

a_o ruler_n must_v rule_v himself_o with_o more_o than_o a_o ordinary_a circumspection_n in_o these_o evil_a day_n wherein_o the_o universal_a cry_n of_o sin_n betray_v itself_o when_o man_n cry_v out_o of_o a_o corrupt_a age_n and_o say_v that_o the_o world_n be_v end_v because_o that_o vice_n abound_v here_o you_o see_v a_o cause_n that_o require_v industry_n the_o spiritual_a power_n must_v

the_o foil_n and_o draw_v under_o the_o world_n into_o true_a obedience_n do_v master_n and_o father_n represent_v divine_a authority_n let_v they_o be_v then_o in_o god_n place_n to_o bring_v up_o

be_v this_o to_o be_v a_o tutor_n or_o governor_n in_o god_n place_n this_o be_v like_a to_o antichrist_n that_o sit_v in_o the_o temple_n of_o god_n but_o advance_v himself_o against_o all_o that_o

let_v no_o man_n swell_v in_o greatness_n of_o heart_n although_o the_o lord_n exalt_v he_o to_o height_n of_o dignity_n but_o that_o mildness_n and_o moderation_n may_v temper_v he_o in_o all_o his_o
