adore_v the_o whole_a parliament_n if_o they_o refuse_v that_o idolatry_n be_v bind_v to_o suffer_v death_n quiet_o and_o not_o to_o resist_v the_o king_n these_o barbarous_a position_n can_v serve_v to_o no_o other_o end_n then_o to_o mislead_v prince_n from_o the_o way_n of_o reason_n and_o moderation_n and_o to_o make_v they_o lift_v up_o their_o heart_n above_o their_o brethren_n as_o the_o

they_o as_o the_o beast_n be_v to_o adam_n for_o so_o our_o author_n will_v seem_v to_o make_v they_o when_o to_o overthrow_v as_o we_o say_v before_o that_o ever_o receive_v and_o undeniable_a say_n people_n be_v before_o king_n he_o say_v that_o adam_n be_v a_o king_n before_o there_o be_v any_o other_o people_n it_o must_v needs_o be_v therefore_o grant_v that_o his_o subject_n be_v beast_n which_o be_v the_o same_o without_o jest_n which_o this_o author_n will_v have_v the_o people_n in_o every_o monarchy_n to_o be_v therefore_o can_v i_o imagine_v that_o so_o holy_a a_o thing_n as_o religion_n be_v any_o way_n in_o the_o design_n of_o those_o english_a clergyman_n who_o write_v against_o the_o liberty_n of_o their_o country_n or_o of_o those_o ruler_n who_o govern_v according_a to_o the_o prescript_n of_o that_o kind_n of_o writing_n but_o only_o a_o intention_n of_o stretch_v the_o prerogative_n royal_a to_o such_o a_o unmeasurable_a greatness_n as_o may_v secure_v and_o advance_v the_o temporal_a end_n of_o they_o which_o depend_v on_o it_o but_o some_o may_v object_v against_o this_o paradox_n &_o say_v though_o it_o be_v grant_v that_o corrupt_a statesman_n have_v no_o aim_n at_o all_o at_o alteration_n of_o religion_n yet_o sure_o our_o great_a clergyman_n have_v for_o what_o else_o can_v make_v they_o of_o late_a year_n in_o point_n of_o doctrine_n approach_v so_o near_o to_o the_o church_n of_o rome_n unless_o it_o be_v a_o desire_n of_o bring_v both_o themselves_o and_o other_o by_o degree_n to_o a_o conjunction_n with_o it_o that_o they_o have_v so_o

may_v see_v what_o fair_a approach_n in_o many_o point_n of_o doctrine_n they_o make_v towards_o the_o church_n of_o rome_n with_o what_o reverence_n they_o speak_v of_o she_o and_o with_o what_o scorn_n they_o name_v the_o protestant_a church_n and_o their_o author_n under_o the_o stile_n of_o puritan_n but_o this_o prove_v not_o that_o their_o design_n be_v religion_n but_o rather_o temporal_a end_n for_o these_o very_a man_n have_v write_v bitter_o against_o the_o church_n of_o rome_n and_o most_o of_o they_o have_v profess_v that_o the_o puritan_n do_v not_o so_o far_o nor_o fundamental_o dissent_v from_o their_o opinion_n as_o the_o papist_n do_v but_o it_o be_v true_a that_o the_o puritan_n do_v go_v more_o cross_a to_o their_o temporal_a end_n pomp_n and_o revenue_n than_o the_o papist_n will_v have_v do_v so_o that_o extremity_n of_o hatred_n against_o the_o puritan_n though_o he_o be_v near_o to_o they_o in_o matter_n of_o religion_n cause_v they_o to_o make_v
