fear_n the_o other_o a_o civil_a filial_a fear_n the_o point_n in_o brief_n be_v true_a subject_n bear_v to_o their_o king_n such_o a_o fear_n as_o child_n to_o point_n their_o parent_n not_o a_o

the_o bowel_n of_o a_o natural_a affection_n which_o be_v above_o all_o other_o kind_n of_o human_a affection_n now_o a_o king_n be_v the_o father_n of_o his_o country_n and_o all_o his_o love_a and_o

78._o 71._o 72._o now_o the_o sheep_n be_v afraid_a of_o the_o wolf_n not_o of_o the_o shepherd_n therefore_o say_v the_o apostle_n if_o thou_o do_v evil_a be_v afraid_a so_o as_o a_o good_a subject_n so_o fear_v as_o he_o be_v not_o afraid_a because_o he_o live_v in_o obedience_n to_o god_n and_o his_o king_n again_o this_o filial_a fear_n in_o a_o subject_a towards_o his_o prince_n do_v necessary_o imply_v a_o excellent_a and_o eminent_a love_n towards_o the_o king_n yea_o great_a love_n then_o natural_a child_n bear_v unto_o their_o parent_n namely_o as_o they_o be_v member_n of_o the_o great_a politic_a body_n unite_v to_o the_o king_n as_o the_o head_n there_o be_v a_o near_a tie_n of_o affection_n between_o the_o head_n and_o the_o member_n then_o between_o a_o father_n

they_o straight_o obey_v and_o put_v their_o life_n in_o hazard_n but_o if_o he_o command_v they_o to_o fight_v against_o the_o christian_n their_o brethren_n than_o they_o lay_v down_o their_o arm_n and_o cast_v themselves_o down_o at_o the_o emperor_n foot_n and_o offer_v their_o naked_a body_n rather_o to_o suffer_v whatsoever_o torment_v a_o second_o reason_n why_o a_o good_a subject_n ought_v to_o stick_v close_o to_o his_o king_n in_o all_o difficulty_n because_o this_o be_v the_o mean_n to_o make_v a_o kingdom_n invincible_a and_o terrible_a to_o the_o enemy_n therefore_o it_o be_v a_o

my_o book_n to_o the_o whole_a parliament_n to_o wit_n to_o the_o king_n and_o both_o the_o house_n i_o do_v not_o divide_v the_o head_n from_o the_o body_n my_o lord_n but_o i_o pray_v god_n unite_v they_o together_o hereat_o he_o be_v mute_a and_o all_o his_o railing_n and_o false_a charge_n be_v at_o a_o nonplus_n so_o it_o seem_v some_o there_o be_v not_o far_o off_o who_o go_v about_o

or_o heartburning_n between_o the_o king_n and_o his_o subject_n be_v most_o perilous_a use_v 1_o here_o then_o those_o be_v just_o and_o severe_o censurable_a even_o as_o traitor_n to_o the_o king_n
