A44798	The measvring rod of the Lord stretched forth over all nations and the line of true judgment laid to the rulers thereof wherein all governours and rulers, potentates and powers are measured, and all governments and lawes weighed in the true weight : wherein they all may see how far they are degenerated from the law of righteousness, and the rules of wisdome, which was in the beginning, before tyranny, and persecution, and rebellion had shewed it selfe : also shewing the end that will come upon all those rulers and governments, rulers and lawes that have been made in the apostacy, which is to all overthrown ... : also an advertisement to all the rulers upon the earth ... : published for the information of all the rulers upon earth ... / by one who waits to see the kingdoms of the world to become the kingdomes of the Lord ...

escape_v the_o rage_n of_o the_o beast_n yet_o there_o have_v be_v a_o few_o who_o have_v keep_v their_o garment_n clean_o and_o be_v not_o defile_v with_o woman_n nor_o with_o the_o harlot_n those_o who_o fear_v the_o lord_n and_o dare_v not_o offend_v the_o righteous_a law_n of_o god_n in_o their_o conscience_n but_o have_v deny_v whole_a counsel_n who_o be_v err_v from_o the_o faith_n and_o all_o the_o power_n of_o the_o earth_n in_o which_o the_o beast_n bear_v rule_v but_o rather_o choose_v to_o suffer_v cruel_a death_n than_o to_o let_v go_v the_o profession_n and_o possession_n of_o their_o faith_n who_o blood_n cry_v under_o the_o altar_n how_o long_a oh_o lord_n holy_a just_a and_o true_a will_v it_o be_v ere_o thou_o avenge_v our_o blood_n which_o blood_n and_o cry_n be_v enter_v into_o the_o ear_n of_o the_o lord_n of_o host_n who_o will_v speedy_o take_v vengeance_n on_o the_o nation_n and_o dash_v they_o one_o against_o another_o and_o will_v break_v down_o that_o power_n which_o have_v slay_v the_o witness_n yea_o and_o have_v gainsay_v the_o power_n of_o god_n and_o all_o nation_n who_o be_v from_o the_o life_n in_o which_o the_o holy_a man_n of_o god_n live_v and_o in_o that_o nature_n still_o which_o persecute_v the_o life_n of_o god_n wherever_o it_o do_v appear_v in_o any_o measure_n yea_o swell_v up_o and_o climb_v to_o the_o very_a top_n of_o iniquity_n which_o be_v satan_n crown_n and_o glory_n and_o the_o priest_n and_o they_o that_o go_v out_o from_o the_o light_n into_o the_o world_n in_o john_n day_n and_o peter_n day_n who_o then_o teach_v for_o filthy_a lucre_n and_o do_v subvert_v whole_a house_n from_o the_o faith_n ever_o since_o that_o time_n have_v spread_v themselves_o over_o the_o nation_n and_o have_v beget_v people_n into_o a_o form_n and_o into_o a_o image_n without_o the_o life_n and_o so_o have_v worship_v the_o beast_n and_o his_o image_n and_o the_o deceit_n be_v enter_v then_o and_o image_n then_o be_v set_v up_o one_o on_o this_o wise_a another_o on_o that_o and_o some_o have_v have_v a_o image_n of_o many_o mixture_n such_o a_o image_n as_o the_o priest_n of_o england_n scotland_n and_o ireland_n worship_n and_o have_v get_v a_o law_n to_o guard_v it_o that_o whosoever_o will_v not_o bow_v to_o it_o the_o furnace_n be_v heat_n hot_a to_o throw_v they_o into_o it_o object_n and_o if_o any_o say_v why_o i_o say_v so_o or_o how_o do_v i_o make_v that_o appear_v ans._n i_o answer_v thus_o the_o cardinal_n jesuit_n and_o other_o romish_a priest_n have_v a_o law_n make_v to_o protect_v their_o idol_n the_o mass_n and_o if_o any_o speak_v to_o he_o that_o be_v sacrifice_v to_o the_o image_n or_o idol_n then_o three_o month_n inprisonment_n but_o now_o if_o any_o declare_v against_o the_o image_n that_o the_o priest_n of_o england_n scotland_n and_o ireland_n have_v set_v up_o every_o one_o be_v to_o pay_v five_o pound_n or_o six_o month_n imprisonment_n in_o a_o house_n of_o correction_n and_o there_o be_v torture_v and_o whip_v and_o shameful_o entreat_v never_o to_o the_o loss_n of_o life_n nay_o it_o be_v now_o so_o much_o the_o more_o hot_a now_o than_o ever_o none_o must_v come_v near_o the_o house_n of_o their_o idol_n god_n or_o image_n but_o must_v be_v count_v a_o breaker_n of_o the_o peace_n nor_o speak_v to_o a_o deceiver_n and_o say_v he_o be_v so_o nor_o a_o hireling_n and_o say_v he_o be_v so_o nor_o to_o a_o covetous_a priest_n and_o say_v he_o be_v so_o and_o can_v for_o proof_n bring_v half_a of_o his_o parish_n to_o witness_v the_o truth_n of_o this_o but_o if_o he_o speak_v the_o truth_n never_o so_o clear_a he_o must_v to_o prison_n or_o pay_v five_o pound_n or_o the_o house_n of_o correction_n and_o there_o be_v whip_v and_o stock_v and_o fetter_v and_o chain_v and_o torture_v and_o so_o it_o be_v manifest_a that_o those_o magistrate_n who_o have_v a_o hand_n in_o make_v of_o this_o law_n have_v outstrip_v the_o magistrate_n in_o the_o time_n of_o mary_n when_o the_o pope_n have_v domination_n in_o his_o height_n in_o these_o nation_n and_o the_o priest_n ●ow_n who_o in_o these_o nation_n who_o have_v set_v up_o their_o image_n of_o many_o mixture_n and_o one_o year_n they_o make_v one_o and_o another_o year_n another_o and_o what_o as_o that_o power_n like_v the_o best_a that_o be_v go_v out_o of_o the_o life_n and_o power_n of_o god_n that_o they_o present_v to_o the_o authority_n of_o the_o nation_n as_o a_o image_n of_o a_o more_o comely_a stature_n than_o the_o former_a and_o then_o authority_n make_v a_o law_n to_o guard_v it_o and_o so_o it_o may_v true_o be_v say_v as_o it_o be_v say_v to_o israel_n have_v any_o other_o nation_n change_v their_o god_n but_o israel_n have_v change_v from_o the_o live_a god_n to_o they_o by_o nature_n which_o be_v no_o god_n and_o so_o have_v these_o nation_n go_v from_o god_n the_o fountain_n of_o life_n and_o from_o the_o power_n of_o god_n and_o have_v set_v up_o a_o image_n in_o which_o be_v no_o life_n instead_o nay_o they_o be_v not_o content_a with_o their_o image_n but_o it_o grow_v old_a and_o then_o pa●ches_v up_o another_o of_o many_o mixture_n one_o while_o the_o mass_n that_o be_v hold_v forth_o as_o their_o public_a profession_n and_o then_o prelacy_n and_o the_o book_n of_o common_a prayer_n and_o then_o presbytery_n and_o the_o directory_n mix_v and_o make_v up_o ignorance_n blindness_n and_o of_o the_o fragment_n of_o popery_n and_o their_o own_o invention_n and_o this_o now_o be_v set_v up_o for_o all_o to_o bow_v to_o one_o while_n one_o thing_n which_o they_o call_v faith_n and_o another_o while_o another_o and_o heap_n of_o confuse_a confession_n but_o be_v all_o out_o of_o the_o life_n and_o from_o the_o true_a faith_n and_o now_o they_o have_v manifest_v themselves_o to_o have_v no_o faith_n and_o to_o be_v without_o faith_n and_o be_v unagree_v upon_o it_o instance_n that_o which_o be_v call_v the_o humble_a petition_n

also_o that_o none_o may_v speak_v or_o write_v against_o under_o a_o penalty_n but_o this_o image_n the_o lord_n have_v by_o his_o immediate_a hand_n from_o heaven_n curse_v and_o confound_v they_o that_o will_v have_v found_v it_o before_o it_o ever_o come_v to_o be_v set_v up_o ah_o silly_a silly_a that_o ever_o they_o who_o shall_v profess_v godliness_n shall_v so_o shame_v themselves_o and_o all_o their_o teacher_n for_o the_o teacher_n be_v not_o agree_v yet_o of_o their_o faith_n so_o they_o have_v either_o no_o faith_n or_o else_o many_o form_n which_o be_v feign_v and_o in_o this_o they_o be_v not_o yet_o agree_v and_o so_o be_v out_o of_o the_o true_a faith_n in_o which_o the_o saint_n have_v fellowship_n in_o the_o unity_n of_o the_o faith_n they_o be_v all_o in_o distraction_n and_o confusion_n head_n and_o tail_n in_o the_o jar_n in_o the_o strife_n about_o word_n and_o a_o form_n of_o word_n and_o how_o many_o confession_n and_o form_n and_o image_n be_v there_o set_v forth_o and_o people_n still_o ignorant_a of_o the_o mystery_n of_o faith_n which_o be_v hold_v in_o a_o pure_a conscience_n and_o want_n that_o which_o be_v the_o evidence_n of_o

and_o to_o consent_v to_o such_o a_o confession_n do_v this_o any_o more_o but_o make_v hypocrite_n when_o a_o man_n be_v not_o first_o persuade_v of_o those_o thing_n in_o his_o mind_n by_o the_o
