What reason can be given why it should not be lawfull Sect. 73 for the Son to be of the Fathers occupation supposing this to have been lawfull or for later ages yea or this present age not to make presidents for those that are yet to come as well as it was for former ages to serve these with the same commoditie Worthy examples of former times are directive and ingaging but not exclusive or confining Nay 4. Considering that of the Prophet David Day unto day Sect. 74 uttereth speech and night unto night sheweth knowledge * Psal 19 2. i. That every succeeding age hath an opportunity of being wiser then the former by having the experience of the wisdom of the former given in unto it by way of advance the best and richest capacity of making Presidents ought still to be adjudged to the present age And therefore as it would be a very simple kind of reasoning to infer thus A man whilst he was a child a youth a young man did not buy land govern a family bear office in a Common-wealth c. Therefore he ought to do none of these things now he is come to be a man So is it not an argument of much more conviction which concludeth thus The world in the Infancie youth middle age of it did neither so nor so did not provide for it's own peace and safety by the arreignment of their Kings when they turned Tyrants and Destroyers of their people therefore the world in the maturitie and perfection of it ought not to do it 5. Christians are in speciall manner injoyned to president good Sect. 75 works for so the Originall 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 beareth i. to 〈…〉 14 make new patterns or presidents of virtuous and worthy actions for others to follow and work by yea and not simply to V●… make such presidents as these but 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 i. to be carefull or industrious about making them or to make them to inquire where others have been dark or defective in the knowledge of the will of God or in the practice of it and to supply the one by their diligence in inquiring out the truth and the other by their faithfulnesse and conscientiousnesse in the practising of it being known But Sect. 76 6. And lastly to this the Truth is that they do but unworthily defame the Justice and Wisdom of the world in former ages who render it as defective in Presidents of the deposall arreignment and Execution of Kings upon perpetrations deserving death There are some pieces published of late where presidents of this kind are to be seen as plentifull as silver or Cedars were in Jerusalem in the dayes of Solomon who made the one to be as stones and the other as Sycom●r●-trees which grow abundantly in the plain * 1 K●ng ●● ● In one of these you may read that when the Romans their Empire decaying had quitted and relinquished what right they had by conquest to this Island and re●igned it all into the peoples hands the people thus reinvested with their original Right about the year 446 both elected them Kings whom they thought best the first British Kings that ever reigned here since the Romans and by the same right when they apprehended cause usually deposed and put them to death * Te●●re of Kings and Magistrates by J. ● pag. ●4 The same Authour not long after reports from Sleidan that in the ye●r 1546. the Duke of Saxonie Landgrave of Hessen and the who●e Protestant League raised open War against Charls the fifth their Emperour sent him a defiance renounced all Faith and Allegiance towards him and debated long in counsel whether they should give him so much as the title of Cesar Let all men judge what this wanted of deposing or killing but the power to do it He adds that in the year 1559. the Scotish Protestants claiming promise of their Queen Regent for Liberty of Conscience she answering that promises were not to be claimed of Princes beyond what was commodious for them to grant told her to her face at the Parliament then at Sterling that if it were so they renounced their obedience and soon after betook them to arms glossing that certainly when Allegiance is renounced that very hour the King or Queen is in effect deposed And to let the world know saith my Authour in processe of discourse that the whole Church and Protestant State of Scotland in those purest times of Reformation were of the same belief viz that Kings if they offend have no priviledge to be exempted from the punishment of Laws more than any other man about the year 1567 they met in the field Mary their Hereditary and lawfull Queen took her prisoner yielding before fight kept her in prison and the ●ame year deposed her And four years after that the Scots in justification of their deposing Queen Mary sent Ambassadours to Queen Elisabeth and in a written Declaration alledged that they had used towards her more lenity than she had deserved that their Ancestors had heretofore punished their Kings with death or b●nishment That the Scots were a free Nation made Kings whom they freely chose and with the same freedom unkinged them if they saw cause by right of ancient Laws c. Concerning the State of Holland the same Authour saith that in the yeer 1681. in a generall Assembly at the Hague they abjured all obedience and subjection to Philip King of Spain and in a Declaration justified their so doing for that by hi● tyrannous Government against faith so often given and broken he had lost his right to all the Belgique Provinces th●● therefore they deposed him and declared it lawful to ●h●s● another in his stead Elsewhere in the same Discourse having given a reason why Tyrants by a kind of naturall instinct both hate and fear none more than the true Church and Saints of God inferrs thus No marv●il then if since the faith of Christ received in purer or impurer times to depose a King and put him to death for Tyranny hath been accounted so just and requisite that neighbour Kings have both upheld and taken part with Subjects in the action And Ludovi●us Pius himself an Emperour and son of Charls the Great being made Judge Du Haillan is my Authour between M●l●gast King of the Vultzes and his Subjects who had depo●ed him gave his verdict for the Subjects and
