adulterer_n and_o adulteress_n shall_v die_v the_o death_n and_o how_o diligent_a executor_n of_o this_o law_n the_o magistrate_n &_o people_n of_o israel_n be_v it_o appear_v in_o that_o they_o be_v so_o ready_a to_o put_v to_o death_n that_o innocent_a susanna_n yea_o in_o the_o very_a law_n of_o nature_n it_o have_v be_v after_o that_o same_o manner_n punish_v as_o appear_v in_o genesis_n when_o we_o read_v that_o judah_n contemn_v his_o daughter_n in_o law_n thamar_n because_o she_o be_v a_o adulteres_fw-la although_o he_o himself_o give_v sentence_n against_o she_o know_v not_o that_o he_o have_v commit_v sin_n with_o she_o to_o be_v burn_v but_o i_o know_v this_o judgement_n will_v not_o be_v like_v of_o some_o but_o it_o skill_v not_o for_o i_o come_v not_o to_o please_v

strength_n of_o god_n spirit_n i_o dare_v utter_v it_o that_o the_o lack_n of_o discipline_n be_v the_o occasion_n of_o this_o sin_n &_o be_v in_o some_o sort_n by_o wicked_a &_o ungodly_a person_n even_o as_o it_o be_v defend_v affirm_v it_o be_v but_o a_o knack_n of_o youth_n a_o piece_n of_o good_a fellowship_n or_o if_o not_o defend_v yet_o the_o punishment_n diminish_v and_o the_o fault_n lessen_v now_o as_o in_o time_n heretofore_o it_o have_v be_v for_o the_o scribe_n &_o pharise_n affirm_v that_o if_o a_o man_n keep_v his_o body_n clean_o from_o actual_a sin_n he_o can_v not_o be_v a_o adulterer_n or_o fornicatour_n and_o no_o marvel_n though_o the_o people_n be_v easy_o induce_v both_o to_o receyve_v and_o believe_v this_o opinion_n for_o beside_o that_o it_o be_v plausible_a to_o flesh_n and_o blood_n the_o scribe_n and_o pharisee_n themselves_o the_o author_n of_o it_o be_v in_o those_o day_n man_n of_o great_a countenance_n and_o estimation_n even_o as_o abbotte_n and_o

that_o though_o the_o world_n account_v never_o so_o little_a of_o this_o wickedness_n know_v you_o yet_o the_o lord_n esteem_v both_o the_o thought_n wish_v &_o the_o deed_n do_v to_o be_v great_a &_o grievous_a sin_n and_o there_o fore_o so_o express_o have_v forbid_v it_o &_o appoint_v so_o grevous_a punishment_n for_o it_o not_o that_o i_o mean_v that_o he_o which_o sin_v in_o thought_n shall_v by_o the_o magistrate_n be_v put_v to_o death_n as_o well_o as_o he_o that_o do_v the_o filthy_a fact_n in_o body_n for_o that_o be_v with_o the_o pelagian_n jovianist_n and_o stoic_n to_o make_v sin_n equal_a which_o opinion_n of_o they_o i_o utter_o dislike_v and_o detest_v for_o in_o respect_n of_o circumstance_n one_o sin_n may_v be_v great_a than_o another_o and_o so_o deserve_v a_o sharp_a punishment_n but_o to_o teach_v you_o according_a to_o the_o truth_n of_o god_n law_n that_o you_o shall_v not_o think_v those_o sin_n small_a which_o god_n spirit_n account_v very_o great_a and_o indeed_o without_o repentance_n make_v a_o perpetual_a separation_n between_o the_o lord_n and_o we_o and_o also_o to_o declare_v that_o we_o ought_v hearty_o to_o wish_v and_o earnest_o to_o pray_v that_o god_n law_n according_a to_o his_o will_n with_o as_o much_o speed_n as_o may_v be_v and_o in_o as_o straight_o a_o manner_n as_o he_o have_v command_v may_v be_v put_v in_o

think_v that_o though_o it_o be_v so_o severe_o punish_v in_o the_o old_a law_n among_o the_o jew_n yet_o it_o shall_v not_o be_v so_o among_o us._n to_o this_o i_o can_v easy_o yield_v if_o they_o be_v able_a to_o prove_v either_o god_n himself_o the_o lawgiver_n to_o be_v mutable_a which_o be_v impossible_a or_o else_o the_o law_n not_o to_o appertain_v to_o we_o which_o i_o think_v they_o be_v not_o able_a to_o doetor_n else_o if_o they_o be_v able_a to_o prescribe_v a_o better_a order_n of_o politic_a government_n they_o god_n himself_o the_o author_n of_o all_o wisdom_n have_v already_o set_v out_o which_o be_v presumption_n and_o blasphemy_n intolerable_a for_o by_o that_o mean_v flesh_n &_o blood_n shall_v be_v if_o not_o exalt_v before_o that_o majesty_n of_o god_n yet_o make_v equal_a unto_o he_o but_o see_v that_o they_o be_v not_o able_a to_o prove_v any_o of_o these_o point_n it_o remain_v that_o unless_o they_o will_v be_v judge_v froward_a &_o obstinate_a they_o consent_n to_o this_o truth_n &_o acknowledge_v that_o same_o but_o they_o be_v so_o far_o from_o yield_v to_o it_o that_o they_o spare_v not_o to_o set_v themselves_o against_o it_o for_o do_v not_o christ_n say_v they_o say_v to_o the_o woman_n take_v in_o adultery_n god_n thy_o way_n &_o sin_n no_o more_o &_o paul_n do_v not_o kill_v with_o the_o sword_n but_o excommunicate_a by_o the_o word_n the_o incestuous_a person_n at_o corinth_n therefore_o fornication_n adultery_n etc._n etc._n be_v not_o so_o straight_o to_o be_v punish_v as_o you_o will_v have_v it_o i_o will_v answer_v bréefe_o and_o for_o brevity_n sake_n i_o will_v omit_v many_o necessary_a point_n in_o these_o two_o example_n which_o otherwise_o if_o i_o may_v stand_v long_o upon_o they_o be_v worthy_a of_o the_o note_n &_o first_o for_o christ_n example_n thus_o i_o answer_v the_o execution_n of_o the_o law_n for_o punish_v adultery_n with_o death_n do_v belong_v to_o the_o civil_a magistrate_n now_o christ_n be_v none_o as_o plain_o appear_v by_o this_o say_n man_n who_o make_v i_o a_o judge_n or_o a_o devider_n over_o you_o speak_v to_o one_o that_o will_v have_v have_v he_o to_o have_v command_v his_o

be_v not_o a_o civil_a magistrate_n he_o will_v not_o take_v upon_o he_o to_o put_v that_o in_o execution_n which_o he_o have_v nothing_o to_o do_v with_o withal_o teach_v we_o to_o that_o we_o be_v content_n with_o our_o vocation_n &_o keep_v ourselves_o within_o the_o bound_n thereof_o &_o this_o may_v serve_v for_o answer_v to_o that_o example_n now_o concern_v paul_n deal_n we_o have_v thus_o much_o to_o note_v that_o there_o be_v they_o so_o far_o as_o can_v be_v gather_v no_o christian_a ruler_n that_o may_v take_v upon_o he_o to_o execute_v this_o law_n in_o his_o full_a force_n and_o yet_o rather_o than_o sin_n shall_v be_v unpunished_a and_o wickedness_n wink_v at_o paul_n will_v use_v the_o discipline_n of_o the_o church_n &_o deliver_v the_o incestuous_a person_n over_o to_o satan_n for_o a_o time_n will_v to_o god_n that_o if_o so_o be_v the_o magistrate_n neglect_v his_o duty_n in_o punish_v this_o sin_n in_o such_o severe_a manner_n as_o god_n law_n appoint_v yet_o we_o may_v have_v some_o paul_n and_o elder_n in_o everye_o congregation_n that_o will_v use_v the_o force_n of_o the_o word_n and_o severity_n of_o discipline_n ecclesiastical_a to_o the_o beat_n down_o of_o this_o and_o all_o other_o like_o horrible_a vice_n but_o all_o this_o notwithstanding_o it_o be_v lamentable_a to_o be_v consider_v and_o no_o godly_a man_n can_v without_o tear_n behold_v the_o fond_a and_o ridiculous_a punishment_n of_o this_o sin_n use_v in_o these_o day_n to_o be_v prick_v in_o a_o sheet_n or_o pin_v in_o a_o blanket_n and_o to_o stand_v in_o the_o church_n or_o in_o some_o market_n place_n or_o cart_v through_o the_o town_n be_v the_o most_o gréevous_a censure_n of_o all_o and_o yet_o in_o my_o judgement_n as_o good_a leave_v undo_v for_o it_o be_v the_o best_a way_n that_o can_v be_v to_o make_v such_o as_o have_v little_a shame_n in_o they_o to_z bes_z altogether_o past_a shame_n i_o will_v not_o say_v altogether_o past_a grace_n and_o yet_o this_o kind_n of_o punishment_n belong_v to_o the_o poor_a sort_n if_o scotfree_a one_o sin_n they_o be_v punish_v by_o the_o purse_n forty_o shilling_n for_o commit_v such_o a_o act_n be_v judge_v a_o great_a punishment_n if_o this_o be_v not_o a_o maintain_n of_o sin_n i_o know_v not_o what_o be_v for_o what_o vicious_a or_o sensual_a man_n be_v there_o that_o will_v léefe_n his_o

then_o will_v the_o wrath_n of_o the_o lord_n wax_v hot_a against_o you_o &_o destroy_v thou_o sudden_o wherefore_o abraham_n cause_v the_o elder_a servant_n of_o his_o household_n to_o swear_v that_o

for_o that_o the_o son_n of_o god_n see_v the_o daughter_n of_o man_n that_o they_o be_v fair_a &_o they_o take_v they_o wife_n of_o all_o that_o they_o like_v let_v we_o therefore_o beware_v and_o
