crave_v leave_n to_o prosecute_v that_o way_n the_o occasion_n of_o the_o day_n lead_v by_o represent_v first_o the_o right_n of_o god_n and_o of_o caesar_n second_o the_o usurpation_n of_o the_o pope_n upon_o both_o and_o three_o the_o redress_n and_o reform_v the_o right_n of_o god_n and_o the_o king_n and_o the_o robbery_n the_o see_v of_o rome_n have_v commit_v upon_o both_o have_v be_v make_v so_o evident_a by_o other_o that_o they_o will_v need_v here_o but_o a_o very_a brief_a recapitulation_n first_o if_o we_o inquire_v what_o be_v god_n we_o be_v to_o consider_v he_o as_o lord_n in_o chief_a and_o sole_a proprietor_n who_o be_v the_o world_n and_o all_o that_o dwell_v therein_o part_v indeed_o of_o his_o dominion_n he_o have_v be_v please_v to_o bestow_v on_o the_o son_n of_o man_n but_o so_o as_o to_o be_v hold_v of_o he_o by_o such_o law_n with_o such_o service_n and_o under_o such_o reservation_n as_o it_o shall_v have_v please_v the_o almighty_a donor_n 1._o he_o have_v therefore_o reserve_v to_o himself_o the_o power_n of_o declare_v law_n and_o those_o not_o to_o be_v overrule_v nor_o supersede_v but_o by_o himself_o to_o bind_v every_o where_o and_o for_o ever_o to_o pass_v through_o all_o country_n and_o continue_v to_o all_o age_n and_o those_o you_o may_v read_v he_o have_v deliver_v they_o in_o write_v 2._o he_o have_v according_o prescribe_v the_o worship_n that_o shall_v be_v pay_v he_o and_o the_o service_n he_o expect_v those_o that_o be_v peculiar_a to_o he_o have_v his_o image_n his_o mark_n set_v upon_o they_o and_o be_v incommunicable_a for_o he_o be_v a_o jealous_a god_n and_o will_v not_o give_v his_o honour_n to_o another_o 3._o and_o for_o this_o peculiar_a service_n he_o have_v choose_v to_o be_v wait_v upon_o by_o a_o distinct_a peculiar_a people_n that_o the_o homage_n and_o worship_n of_o the_o world_n may_v be_v present_v to_o he_o in_o public_a by_o proper_a hallow_a hand_n and_o these_o man_n they_o too_o have_v their_o character_n you_o may_v know_v they_o who_o they_o be_v and_o to_o who_o they_o belong_v 4._o in_o the_o last_o place_n we_o may_v mention_v as_o proper_a to_o god_n not_o what_o he_o have_v primary_o reserve_v but_o what_o afterward_o his_o pious_a servant_n out_o of_o zeal_n and_o gratitude_n have_v offer_v to_o he_o such_o be_v all_o donation_n sacred_a to_o his_o name_n and_o appropriate_v to_o his_o service_n these_o possession_n and_o revenue_n who_o they_o be_v you_o will_v find_v too_o by_o their_o inscription_n look_v into_o the_o charter_n of_o their_o foundation_n and_o you_o will_v see_v they_o belong_v to_o god_n in_o the_o next_o place_n consider_v we_o what_o be_v caesar_n and_o if_o we_o look_v upon_o he_o we_o shall_v know_v his_o quality_n and_o his_o value_n who_o image_n bear_v he_o and_o who_o do_v he_o represent_v be_v he_o not_o the_o vicegerent_n of_o god_n 1._o wherever_o therefore_o his_o sovereign_n the_o almighty_a have_v not_o prevent_v he_o by_o any_o precedent_n command_v there_o he_o have_v right_a and_o liberty_n to_o put_v forth_o his_o in_o those_o case_n to_o expect_v a_o active_a cheerful_a obedience_n and_o that_o we_o shall_v in_o no_o case_n and_o for_o no_o reason_n resist_v 2._o be_v this_o civil_a government_n heretic_n or_o infidel_n we_o be_v not_o discharge_v of_o our_o allegiance_n we_o be_v oblige_v by_o the_o same_o divine_a authority_n to_o preserve_v our_o religion_n under_o it_o and_o to_o continue_v to_o it_o our_o subjection_n nor_o be_v any_o modern_a governor_n of_o the_o church_n great_a
