holy_a man_n unspotted_a in_o their_o life_n and_o conversation_n and_o by_o this_o sacred_a word_n may_v we_o prove_v whether_o our_o religion_n be_v of_o god_n or_o no_o and_o by_o look_v in_o this_o glass_n we_o may_v discern_v whether_o we_o be_v in_o the_o right_a way_n or_o no._n and_o look_v into_o the_o same_o i_o find_v that_o by_o this_o truth_n of_o god_n that_o there_o be_v but_o one_o god_n one_o christ_n one_o faith_n one_o religion_n which_o be_v the_o gospel_n of_o christ_n and_o the_o doctrine_n of_o the_o prophet_n and_o apostle_n in_o these_o two_o testament_n be_v contain_v all_o thing_n necessary_a to_o salvation_n if_o that_o our_o religion_n do_v hang_v upon_o this_o doctrine_n and_o no_o other_o secondary_a mean_n than_o it_o be_v true_a to_o which_o come_v

intimate_v unto_o you_o which_o be_v how_o to_o discern_v in_o a_o state_n between_o good_a subject_n and_o bad_a by_o their_o loyalty_n and_o due_a subjection_n to_o their_o lawful_a sovereign_n in_o which_o i_o shall_v under_o favour_n observe_v two_o thing_n 1._o lawful_a subjection_n to_o a_o king_n in_o his_o own_o person_n and_o the_o command_n edict_n and_o proclamation_n of_o the_o prince_n

great_a council_n of_o state_n assemble_v in_o parliament_n for_o the_o first_o to_o deny_v a_o willing_a and_o dutiful_a obedience_n to_o a_o lawful_a sovereign_n and_o his_o privy_a council_n for_o as_o cambden_n true_o say_v the_o command_n of_o the_o lord_n privy_a councillor_n and_o the_o edict_n of_o the_o prince_n be_v all_o one_o for_o they_o be_v inseparable_a the_o one_o never_o without_o the_o other_o either_o to_o defend_v his_o royal_a person_n and_o kingdom_n against_o the_o enemy_n of_o the_o same_o either_o public_a or_o private_a or_o to_o defend_v the_o ancient_a

and_o maintain_v true_a religion_n establish_v in_o the_o land_n according_a to_o the_o truth_n of_o god_n be_v one_o sign_n of_o a_o evil_a and_o bad_a subject_n second_o to_o yield_v obedience_n to_o the_o command_v of_o a_o king_n if_o against_o the_o true_a religion_n against_o the_o ancient_n and_o fundamental_a law_n of_o the_o land_n be_v another_o sign_n of_o a_o ill_a subject_n three_o to_o resist_v the_o lawful_a power_n of_o the_o king_n to_o raise_v insurrection_n against_o the_o king_n admit_v he_o adverse_a in_o his_o religion_n to_o conspire_v against_o his_o sacred_a person_n or_o any_o way_n to_o rebel_n tho'_o command_v thing_n against_o our_o conscience_n in_o exercise_v religion_n or_o against_o the_o right_n and_o privilege_n of_o the_o subject_a be_v a_o absolute_a sign_n of_o a_o disaffect_v and_o traitorous_a subject_n and_o now_o have_v give_v the_o sign_n of_o discern_v evil_a and_o disloyal_a subject_n i_o shall_v only_o give_v you_o in_o a_o word_n or_o two_o the_o sign_n of_o discern_v which_o be_v loyal_a and_o good_a subject_n only_o by_o turn_v these_o three_o sign_n already_o show_v on_o the_o contrary_a side_n 1._o he_o that_o willing_o and_o cheerful_o endeavour_v himself_o to_o obey_v his_o sovereign_n command_n for_o the_o defence_n of_o his_o own_o person_n and_o kingdom_n for_o the_o defence_n of_o true_a religion_n for_o the_o

religion_n against_o the_o ancient_n and_o fundamental_a law_n of_o the_o land_n in_o endeavour_v to_o perform_v the_o same_o be_v a_o good_a subject_n 3._o not_o to_o resist_v the_o lawful_a and_o royal_a power_n of_o the_o king_n to_o raise_v sedition_n or_o insurrection_n against_o his_o person_n or_o to_o set_v division_n between_o the_o king_n and_o his_o good_a subject_n by_o rebellion_n although_o command_a thing_n against_o conscience_n in_o the_o exercise_n of_o religion_n or_o against_o the_o right_n and_o privilege_n of_o the_o subject_a but_o patient_o for_o the_o same_o to_o undergo_v his_o prince_n displeasure_n whether_o it_o be_v to_o his_o imprisonment_n confiscation_n of_o good_n banishment_n or_o any_o other_o punishment_n whatsoever_o without_o murmur_a grudge_a
