lust_n to_o be_v meek_a and_o peaceable_a nothing_o can_v make_v such_o man_n peaceable_a but_o what_o can_v mortify_v their_o lust_n and_o cure_v their_o passion_n and_o nothing_o can_v do_v that_o but_o the_o spirit_n of_o god_n that_o dovelike_a spirit_n which_o dwell_v in_o those_o temple_n which_o be_v dedicate_v to_o he_o by_o religion_n the_o result_n of_o all_o that_o i_o have_v say_v upon_o these_o two_o last_o general_a head_n in_o brief_a be_v this_o that_o as_o no_o government_n can_v subsist_v without_o religion_n nor_o continue_v long_o if_o the_o subject_n of_o it_o have_v not_o the_o fear_n of_o god_n so_o on_o the_o other_o hand_n no_o government_n can_v obtain_v its_o end_n either_o in_o promote_a virtue_n maintain_v justice_n or_o preserve_v the_o peace_n and_o prosperity_n of_o a_o nation_n without_o the_o assistance_n of_o religion_n and_o the_o conclusion_n which_o natural_o follow_v from_o these_o two_o thing_n be_v this_o that_o therefore_o it_o be_v the_o interest_n as_o well_o as_o the_o duty_n of_o king_n and_o prince_n and_o of_o all_o the_o minister_n of_o government_n as_o they_o desire_v their_o own_o pres_fw-fr ervation_n and_o the_o continuance_n of_o their_o authority_n and_o hope_v to_o do_v any_o good_a in_o their_o station_n to_o make_v it_o their_o chief_a care_n and_o business_n to_o suppress_v all_o irreligion_n and_o vice_n and_o to_o promote_v religion_n and_o the_o fear_n of_o god_n among_o their_o subject_n without_o which_o in_o a_o word_n they_o themselves_o can_v never_o be_v safe_a nor_o their_o people_n happy_a and_o now_o to_o apply_v what_o have_v be_v say_v with_o respect_n to_o the_o present_a occasion_n all_o that_o have_v be_v say_v of_o the_o blessing_n a_o nation_n enjoy_v in_o have_v a_o government_n over_o it_o especial_o such_o a_o government_n in_o the_o person_n of_o a_o king_n that_o make_v it_o his_o business_n to_o do_v god_n work_n in_o the_o world_n in_o restrain_v man_n from_o sin_n and_o promote_a religion_n and_o virtue_n all_o this_o these_o kingdom_n have_v in_o the_o most_o eminent_a degree_n in_o the_o person_n and_o governmentof_n king_n charles_n i._o of_o

yet_o whatsoever_o ground_n there_o be_v for_o they_o it_o be_v certain_a there_o be_v such_o riches_n and_o wealth_n in_o his_o reign_n as_o never_o be_v know_v in_o england_n before_o the_o wealth_n and_o plenty_n and_o prosperity_n of_o england_n be_v then_o the_o wonder_n and_o envy_n of_o all_o our_o neighbour_n and_o for_o art_n and_o learning_n the_o attendant_n of_o peace_n and_o plenty_n we_o then_o surpass_v all_o other_o nation_n in_o the_o world_n and_o yet_o from_o the_o begin_n to_o the_o end_n of_o his_o reign_n still_o there_o be_v those_o complaint_n which_o i_o less_o wonder_n at_o since_o there_o be_v as_o i_o have_v show_v the_o like_a among_o god_n choose_a people_n and_o that_o even_o under_o moses_n government_n and_o in_o the_o time_n of_o david_n reign_n but_o as_o this_o insensibleness_n of_o god_n blessing_n can_v not_o hinder_v his_o people_n from_o feel_v the_o want_n of_o they_o when_o by_o the_o loss_n of_o those_o excellent_a governor_n they_o can_v better_o judge_v what_o a_o blessing_n they_o enjoy_v in_o their_o continuance_n with_o they_o even_o so_o it_o happen_v among_o we_o when_o our_o king_n be_v take_v away_o then_o there_o be_v a_o general_a lamentation_n not_o only_o his_o friend_n but_o some_o that_o have_v be_v his_o enemy_n join_v in_o it_o there_o be_v indeed_o such_o a_o general_a lamentation_n in_o this_o kingdom_n at_o first_o when_o the_o matter_n be_v fresh_a that_o the_o like_a have_v be_v never_o know_v nor_o hear_v upon_o any_o occasion_n it_o be_v much_o aggravate_v and_o heighten_v by_o a_o sense_n of_o

be_v this_o extraordinary_a in_o our_o case_n it_o be_v that_o which_o will_v astonish_v one_o to_o think_v of_o it_o that_o such_o a_o blessing_n shall_v be_v throw_v away_o with_o our_o own_o hand_n that_o such_o a_o excellent_a king_n shall_v be_v murder_v by_o his_o own_o subject_n and_o that_o with_o such_o unparalleled_a circumstance_n at_o the_o door_n of_o his_o own_o royal_a palace_n with_o the_o pageantry_n and_o form_n of_o law_n a_o scornful_a mockery_n of_o all_o earthly_a justice_n and_o the_o bold_a defiance_n of_o the_o justice_n of_o heaven_n this_o be_v horror_n to_o all_o good_a man_n that_o see_v or_o hear_v of_o it_o it_o break_v the_o heart_n of_o not_o a_o few_o at_o that_o time_n and_o even_o now_o all_o good_a man_n have_v that_o sense_n of_o it_o which_o

of_o they_o that_o be_v the_o author_n of_o it_o but_o that_o be_v not_o my_o business_n at_o this_o time_n i_o be_o now_o to_o consider_v this_o matter_n as_o it_o stand_v between_o god_n and_o
