in_o jesurun_n and_o be_v conduct_v they_o from_o bondage_n into_o liberty_n but_o they_o have_v not_o long_o pass_v over_o jordan_n and_o enjoy_v rest_n from_o their_o enemy_n before_o they_o sell_v

that_o his_o anger_n often_o wax_v hot_a that_o they_o can_v not_o stand_v against_o their_o enemy_n nevertheless_o upon_o their_o repentance_n god_n still_o raise_v they_o up_o judge_n and_o

the_o great_a misery_n of_o a_o people_n when_o they_o be_v without_o restraint_n from_o civil_a government_n which_o i_o shall_v with_o all_o plainness_n endeavour_v to_o lay_v before_o you_o from_o

shall_v in_o a_o few_o practical_a inference_n bring_v they_o home_o to_o our_o own_o door_n and_o there_o leave_v their_o application_n i._o here_o be_v a_o vacancy_n in_o the_o throne_n there_o be_v in_o those_o day_n no_o king_n in_o israel_n by_o the_o word_n king_n in_o this_o text_n we_o be_v not_o i_o conceive_v to_o understand_v that_o form_n of_o government_n only_o which_o we_o call_v a_o monarchy_n but_o civil_a government_n in_o general_a if_o the_o text_n do_v intend_v that_o form_n precise_o and_o exclusive_o of_o all_o other_o it_o will_v i_o confess_v be_v the_o strong_a argument_n of_o the_o excellency_n and_o usefulness_n thereof_o and_o a_o reflection_n upon_o all_o other_o model_n as_o be_v less_o sufficient_a for_o their_o ends._n we_o may_v from_o such_o a_o exposition_n infer_v that_o the_o monarchical_a government_n be_v the_o most_o powerful_a and_o effectual_a restraint_n to_o the_o passion_n and_o vice_n of_o men._n as_o if_o we_o shall_v say_v there_o be_v other_o governor_n the_o stand_a council_n of_o the_o great_a sanhedrim_n and_o other_o inferior_a judicatories_n but_o these_o can_v not_o check_v the_o insolence_n of_o man_n nor_o stop_v the_o course_n of_o impiety_n or_o violence_n these_o can_v not_o hinder_v or_o dare_v not_o punish_v the_o riot_n and_o unlawful_a assembly_n of_o the_o wicked_a and_o unruly_a son_n of_o belial_n there_o be_v no_o king_n and_o therefore_o every_o man_n do_v as_o he_o please_v as_o if_o no_o lord_n be_v over_o they_o but_o i_o conceive_v such_o a_o exposition_n be_v too_o narrow_a and_o not_o altogether_o true_a for_o as_o solomon_n observe_v prov_n xxx_o 27._o the_o locust_n who_o have_v no_o king_n yet_o go_v forth_o all_o of_o they_o by_o band_n so_o other_o constitution_n of_o government_n may_v have_v unity_n and_o order_n and_o strength_n to_o enforce_v their_o respective_a law_n and_o the_o finger_n of_o their_o discipline_n be_v find_v sometime_o to_o be_v heavy_a than_o the_o loin_n of_o monarchy_n the_o generosity_n and_o clemency_n of_o king_n at_o least_o of_o some_o king_n dispense_v in_o some_o matter_n with_o a_o rigid_a conformity_n to_o their_o law_n while_o other_o who_o affect_v a_o show_n of_o more_o liberty_n prove_v general_o more_o severe_a exactor_n of_o obedience_n and_o therefore_o by_o no_o king_n in_o israel_n i_o be_o content_a you_o may_v understand_v a_o cessation_n of_o civil_a authority_n in_o general_n and_o not_o of_o any_o particular_a form_n of_o its_o administration_n so_o that_o no_o king_n shall_v signify_v no_o government_n in_o israel_n but_o then_o this_o kind_n of_o government_n be_v here_o put_v to_o signify_v any_o other_o we_o may_v reasonable_o conclude_v either_o 1._o that_o this_o viz._n a_o monarchy_n be_v the_o best_a of_o all_o the_o several_a kind_n the_o most_o apt_a and_o sufficient_a for_o its_o end_n parcere_fw-la subjectis_fw-la &_o debellare_fw-la superbos_fw-la for_o the_o terror_n of_o evil_a doer_n and_o the_o praise_n of_o they_o that_o do_v well_o or_o 2._o that_o that_o government_n by_o which_o god_n preside_v over_o the_o jew_n in_o the_o time_n of_o moses_n and_o joshua_n and_o the_o judge_n do_v more_o resemble_v that_o of_o a_o king_n than_o any_o other_o sort_n of_o administration_n whether_o of_o aristocracy_n or_o democracy_n and_o therefore_o we_o may_v have_v leave_n to_o think_v that_o such_o a_o paternal_a government_n in_o a_o gentle_a and_o well-tempered_a monarchy_n be_v most_o like_a the_o divine_a theocracy_n over_o that_o nation_n and_o consequent_o wherever_o it_o obtain_v in_o any_o other_o be_v most_o acceptable_a and_o please_a unto_o god_n as_o the_o near_a approach_n to_o the_o pattern_n in_o the_o mount_n the_o primitive_a model_n and_o scheme_n which_o he_o contrive_v for_o his_o own_o people_n and_o therefore_o if_o any_o form_n of_o government_n be_v of_o divine_a right_n more_o than_o another_o such_o a_o kind_n of_o monarchy_n bid_v fair_a for_o the_o character_n as_o be_v a_o copy_n from_o the_o divine_a original_a the_o ray_n of_o sovereignty_n do_v not_o indeed_o dazzle_v the_o eye_n here_o so_o much_o as_o in_o the_o tyranny_n of_o the_o nation_n but_o they_o be_v more_o benign_a and_o better_o suit_v to_o the_o nature_n and_o genius_n of_o a_o free_a people_n the_o circumstance_n of_o
