who_o do_v so_o fall_v in_o the_o hand_n of_o justice_n the_o defence_n they_o use_v to_o make_v for_o themselves_o do_v sufficient_o betoken_v the_o guilt_n that_o hover_v over_o their_o conscience_n and_o they_o do_v seldom_o die_v more_o regret_v by_o all_o good_a christian_n than_o the_o worst_a of_o criminal_n be_v wont_a to_o do_v and_o even_o when_o a_o powerful_a party_n get_v the_o uppermost_a and_o god_n permit_v they_o to_o scourge_v a_o people_n yet_o all_o their_o argument_n depend_v upon_o their_o sword_n and_o however_o much_o they_o may_v force_v man_n outward_o to_o assent_v to_o the_o justness_n of_o their_o cause_n yet_o all_o the_o violence_n wherewith_o they_o can_v harrass_n they_o reach_v not_o the_o inward_a thought_n of_o their_o mind_n and_o they_o will_v there_o condemn_v what_o elsewhere_o they_o must_v approve_v and_o hence_o it_o be_v that_o the_o administration_n of_o the_o government_n can_v never_o be_v so_o unjust_o complain_v of_o but_o that_o the_o eye_n of_o all_o the_o world_n will_v be_v open_a to_o the_o wrong_v it_o shall_v sustain_v but_o you_o may_v also_o remember_v what_o be_v say_v as_o to_o this_o already_o the_o only_a difficulty_n therefore_o that_o arise_v from_o this_o competition_n be_v that_o conscience_n be_v still_o but_o a_o crazy_a foundation_n for_o any_o government_n when_o the_o true_a religion_n be_v so_o ready_a to_o be_v worsted_n by_o passion_n and_o interest_n but_o all_o that_o i_o have_v allege_v upon_o this_o head_n go_v no_o further_o than_o that_o in_o the_o nature_n of_o the_o thing_n itself_o nothing_o can_v be_v so_o proper_a for_o the_o security_n of_o any_o government_n as_o conscience_n root_v in_o the_o true_a religion_n and_o that_o subject_n must_v first_o be_v either_o heretic_n or_o debauchee_n before_o their_o prince_n can_v have_v ground_n to_o misdoubt_v they_o and_o consequent_o that_o since_o the_o true_a religion_n have_v all_o the_o evidence_n for_o it_o that_o can_v work_v with_o sincere_a and_o rational_a man_n it_o high_o concern_v all_o prince_n to_o use_v their_o utmost_a endeavour_n that_o prejudice_n or_o superstition_n or_o the_o design_n of_o this_o world_n do_v not_o prosper_v too_o much_o in_o the_o heart_n of_o those_o over_o who_o they_o reign_v as_o on_o the_o other_o hand_n it_o be_v the_o interest_n of_o the_o subject_n to_o do_v all_o that_o can_v be_v lawful_a for_o they_o to_o prevent_v that_o their_o sovereign_n be_v not_o gain_v over_o to_o a_o religion_n from_o whence_o they_o can_v reasonable_o expect_v that_o full_a security_n to_o themselves_o which_o the_o profession_n of_o the_o true_a religion_n will_v afford_v they_o so_o that_o happy_a be_v that_o people_n who_o god_n be_v the_o lord_n but_o that_o providence_n without_o which_o the_o small_a hair_n of_o our_o head_n fall_v not_o to_o the_o ground_n be_v most_o to_o be_v look_v to_o and_o depend_v upon_o in_o all_o this_o and_o in_o this_o matter_n neither_o the_o prince_n nor_o the_o people_n can_v be_v too_o cautious_a in_o what_o they_o undertake_v lest_o a_o wrong_a step_n in_o the_o mean_n bring_v on_o a_o end_n of_o ruin_n and_o confusion_n but_o wave_v all_o this_o if_o christ_n have_v allow_v subject_n to_o force_v their_o prince_n either_o to_o lay_v down_o his_o crown_n or_o to_o profess_v that_o which_o they_o shall_v think_v to_o be_v the_o true_a religion_n even_o when_o they_o shall_v not_o be_v deceive_v in_o it_o then_o he_o have_v manifest_o make_v a_o alteration_n in_o the_o right_n of_o prince_n because_o now_o they_o be_v not_o to_o hold_v their_o dominion_n upon_o the_o ancient_a term_n of_o the_o constitution_n of_o their_o several_a nation_n but_o also_o upon_o this_o new_a supervenient_a condition_n of_o be_v of_o the_o true_a christian_a religion_n and_o there_o be_v nothing_o more_o clear_a than_o that_o his_o right_n be_v invade_v who_o can_v just_o maintain_v it_o without_o perform_v more_o than_o what_o by_o the_o first_o article_n of_o obtain_v it_o he_o be_v oblige_v unto_o none_o will_v doubt_v but_o that_o our_o saviour_n may_v have_v lay_v this_o new_a tie_n upon_o all_o sovereign_n if_o he_o have_v please_v and_o thereby_o have_v make_v infidelity_n or_o heresy_n a_o sufficient_a ground_n for_o their_o orthodox_n subject_n to_o depose_v they_o but_o then_o he_o have_v assume_v to_o himself_o a_o civil_a power_n and_o authority_n and_o have_v new_o model_v the_o government_n of_o the_o world_n contrary_a to_o what_o i_o show_v before_o and_o to_o what_o this_o objection_n i_o be_o answer_v presuppose_n wherefore_o in_o the_o three_o place_n though_o our_o saviour_n do_v not_o meddle_v with_o the_o civil_a right_n of_o subject_n yet_o he_o bestow_v no_o such_o right_n upon_o they_o as_o may_v overturn_v that_o of_o their_o sovereign_n and_o so_o however_o much_o the_o true_a religion_n contribute_v to_o the_o advantage_n of_o the_o government_n yet_o since_o it_o can_v be_v impose_v upon_o the_o prince_n without_o encroach_a upon_o his_o right_n no_o warrant_n can_v be_v presume_v from_o any_o thing_n our_o saviour_n ever_o teach_v or_o do_v to_o dethrone_v prince_n mere_o for_o the_o sake_n of_o their_o religion_n beside_o religion_n be_v no_o civil_a but_o only_o a_o spiritual_a mean_a for_o promote_a the_o interest_n of_o the_o government_n and_o therefore_o it_o can_v accresce_fw-it to_o the_o subject_n right_o in_o the_o mean_v requisite_a for_o that_o end_n otherwise_o it_o may_v as_o well_o be_v say_v that_o subject_n have_v right_o that_o the_o grace_n of_o god_n shall_v work_v powerful_o upon_o the_o soul_n of_o their_o prince_n that_o he_o never_o but_o act_v conscientious_o in_o his_o administrate_v the_o power_n he_o be_v vest_v with_o and_o thus_o we_o shall_v fall_v into_o that_o old_a explode_a opinion_n that_o dominion_n be_v found_v in_o grace_n no_o subject_n therefore_o can_v have_v reason_n to_o complain_v as_o if_o our_o saviour_n have_v not_o deal_v kind_o enough_o with_o he_o because_o he_o have_v not_o put_v a_o sword_n in_o his_o hand_n whereby_o to_o rob_v his_o sovereign_n of_o his_o crown_n and_o just_a right_n certain_o all_o subject_n owe_v he_o the_o humble_a resentment_n of_o gratitude_n that_o he_o settle_v all_o the_o government_n in_o the_o world_n more_o firm_o upon_o their_o wont_a pillar_n and_o foundation_n than_o ever_o they_o be_v before_o though_o he_o do_v not_o interweave_v his_o religion_n with_o their_o political_a constitution_n and_o establishment_n but_o last_o of_o all_o subject_n must_v cease_v to_o be_v christian_n before_o they_o can_v think_v upon_o fight_v at_o any_o rate_n for_o their_o religion_n mere_o as_o it_o be_v such_o for_o whether_o the_o doctrine_n or_o the_o example_n of_o our_o saviour_n be_v consider_v it_o appear_v manifest_a to_o all_o sober_a and_o unprejudiced_a man_n that_o nothing_o can_v be_v more_o repugnant_a to_o the_o design_n of_o the_o christian_a religion_n than_o that_o it_o shall_v be_v fight_v for_o as_o if_o it_o be_v some_o prize_n or_o booty_n and_o as_o to_o the_o former_a
