favourite_n of_o heaven_n in_o her_o life_n and_o at_o last_o dye_v in_o peace_n and_o honour_n in_o a_o good_a old_a age_n after_o a_o long_a and_o glorious_a reign_n belove_v by_o all_o good_a man_n while_o she_o live_v and_o lament_v by_o they_o at_o her_o death_n do_v not_o the_o same_o providence_n watch_v over_o her_o wise_a and_o peaceable_a successor_n deliver_v he_o from_o many_o attempt_n and_o particular_o the_o most_o horrid_a that_o ever_o the_o sun_n see_v discover_v and_o bless_a be_v god_n he_o be_v still_o the_o same_o to_o our_o present_a monarch_n protect_v he_o from_o the_o rage_n of_o those_o that_o be_v his_o enemy_n on_o both_o hand_n because_o he_o strong_o maintain_v that_o truth_n that_o be_v oppose_v by_o they_o both_o how_o many_o experience_n have_v god_n give_v we_o of_o discover_v and_o disappoint_v their_o wicked_a plot_n and_o conspiracy_n against_o he_o and_o especial_o at_o this_o time_n in_o particular_a this_o give_v we_o advantage_n to_o strengthen_v our_o faith_n in_o the_o belief_n of_o god_n care_n of_o our_o king_n and_o in_o he_o of_o we_o this_o encourage_v we_o to_o hope_v and_o pray_v that_o no_o treason_n form_v against_o he_o may_v prosper_v that_o his_o enemy_n of_o all_o sort_n may_v be_v clothe_v with_o shame_n but_o that_o upon_o himself_o his_o crown_n may_v long_o and_o happy_o flourish_v and_o that_o after_o many_o and_o

authority_n immediate_o derive_v from_o the_o only_a wise_a god_n the_o great_a king_n of_o king_n monarchy_n be_v establish_v and_o king_n do_v hold_v their_o sceptre_n and_o that_o i_o may_v discourse_v upon_o this_o distinct_o to_o the_o clear_n of_o the_o truth_n to_o the_o confirmation_n of_o those_o that_o own_o it_o and_o to_o the_o conviction_n of_o gainsayers_a i_o shall_v propose_v these_o four_o question_n 1._o whether_o monarchy_n be_v that_o particular_a form_n of_o government_n which_o god_n have_v appoint_v and_o do_v approve_v or_o whether_o there_o may_v not_o be_v another_o form_n of_o government_n that_o may_v be_v competitor_n with_o it_o for_o desirableness_n or_o rather_o prefer_v before_o it_o 2._o whether_o king_n have_v their_o power_n immediate_o from_o god_n or_o whether_o it_o be_v not_o confer_v upon_o they_o by_o the_o people_n 3._o whether_o suppose_v that_o the_o people_n do_v confer_v the_o power_n upon_o the_o prince_n in_o the_o first_o institution_n of_o monarchy_n it_o do_v now_o lie_v in_o the_o power_n of_o the_o people_n to_o revoke_v it_o 4._o whether_o the_o power_n of_o king_n be_v so_o immediate_o subject_a unto_o god_n that_o no_o earthly_a power_n can_v call_v the_o king_n to_o a_o account_n for_o the_o administration_n of_o the_o government_n first_o whether_o monarchy_n be_v that_o particular_a form_n of_o government_n which_o god_n appoint_v and_o do_v approve_v or_o whether_o there_o be_v not_o other_o form_n of_o government_n for_o example_n a_o democracy_n that_o may_v be_v commend_v equal_o with_o it_o or_o rather_o prefer_v before_o it_o i_o move_v this_o question_n because_o we_o be_v fall_v into_o a_o unhappy_a age_n when_o man_n do_v assume_v to_o themselves_o if_o not_o a_o liberty_n of_o prophesy_v or_o conjecture_v what_o form_n of_o government_n will_v come_v next_o upon_o the_o stage_n and_o act_v its_o part_n among_o we_o yet_o at_o least_o a_o liberty_n of_o argue_v pro_fw-la and_o con_v make_v it_o a_o moot_v case_n whether_o monarchy_n be_v the_o government_n that_o god_n approve_v and_o whether_o the_o nation_n may_v not_o be_v as_o happy_a or_o more_o under_o a_o republic_n than_o a_o monarchy_n in_o order_n to_o the_o state_v of_o this_o point_n i_o lay_v down_o these_o assertion_n 1._o it_o be_v certain_a that_o monarchy_n be_v the_o most_o ancient_a government_n of_o mankind_n he_o that_o epitomise_v trogus_n a_o ancient_a writer_n tell_v we_o that_o principio_fw-la rerum_fw-la gentium_fw-la &_o civitatum_fw-la imperium_fw-la penes_fw-la reges_fw-la erat_fw-la and_o if_o in_o the_o search_n of_o history_n sacred_a or_o profane_a there_o be_v no_o footstep_n of_o democracy_n in_o the_o elder_a time_n then_o certain_o a_o republic_n be_v a_o innovation_n and_o innovation_n in_o the_o state_n be_v as_o dangerous_a as_o in_o the_o church_n and_o if_o our_o saviour_n convict_v practice_n introduce_v in_o late_a age_n by_o call_v they_o back_o to_o the_o original_a of_o thing_n tell_v they_o that_o in_o the_o beginning_n it_o be_v not_o so_o matth._n 19.8_o then_o sure_o i_o think_v the_o antiquity_n of_o this_o form_n plead_v much_o for_o the_o preference_n of_o monarchy_n 2._o it_o be_v the_o government_n that_o god_n set_v up_o over_o his_o own_o people_n of_o old_a i_o do_v not_o say_v that_o we_o be_v absolute_o bind_v to_o the_o jewish_a model_n of_o government_n or_o law_n any_o further_a than_o the_o common_a equity_n or_o benefit_n thereof_o do_v oblige_v we_o but_o we_o may_v reasonable_o conclude_v that_o what_o form_n of_o government_n the_o infinite_a wisdom_n of_o god_n do_v know_v to_o be_v best_a that_o his_o infinite_a goodness_n will_v move_v he_o to_o establish_v among_o that_o people_n who_o he_o have_v choose_v out_o of_o all_o the_o nation_n of_o the_o earth_n to_o be_v unto_o he_o a_o peculiar_a people_n deut._n 14.2_o now_o monarchical_a government_n be_v that_o which_o he_o set_v up_o among_o the_o jew_n even_o moses_n be_v a_o monarch_n and_o king_n in_o jeshurun_n deut._n 33.5_o joshua_n and_o the_o rest_n of_o the_o judge_n or_o duke_n be_v virtual_o though_o not_o formal_o king_n after_o they_o follow_v those_o that_o bear_v the_o name_n and_o state_n of_o king_n but_o still_o their_o government_n be_v monarchical_a which_o be_v a_o great_a argument_n for_o its_o excellency_n 3._o we_o read_v of_o no_o other_o form_n of_o government_n in_o scripture_n but_o monarchy_n this_o argument_n be_v chief_o ad_fw-la homines_fw-la those_o that_o be_v ready_a so_o pertinacious_o to_o stick_v to_o that_o principle_n that_o the_o holy_a scripture_n be_v a_o sufficient_a rule_n in_o all_o thing_n appertain_v to_o faith_n and_o manner_n that_o they_o be_v ready_a to_o think_v a_o argument_n conclude_v negative_o ab_fw-la hâc_fw-la authoritate_fw-la to_o be_v firm_a and_o cogent_a that_o press_v we_o so_o much_o with_o the_o prohibition_n of_o add_v to_o or_o diminish_v from_o the_o word_n of_o god_n and_o urge_v the_o great_a curse_n to_o deter_v we_o these_o i_o hope_v will_v accept_v of_o what_o consequence_n do_v necessary_o follow_v from_o those_o premise_n and_o for_o as_o much_o as_o no_o other_o form_n of_o civil_a government_n but_o monarchical_a be_v find_v in_o scripture_n therefore_o to_o attempt_v to_o set_v up_o another_o must_v be_v either_o add_v to_o that_o word_n or_o detract_n from_o it_o or_o both_o and_o this_o argument_n must_v hold_v strong_o among_o all_o man_n of_o that_o persuasion_n 4._o monarchy_n do_v most_o near_o resemble_v the_o power_n and_o authority_n of_o god_n the_o great_a king_n of_o king_n original_n give_v pattern_n to_o all_o copy_n and_o copy_n must_v be_v correct_v by_o they_o now_o the_o power_n of_o god_n as_o the_o governor_n of_o the_o world_n be_v the_o original_a and_o pattern_n of_o all_o government_n and_o consequent_o the_o near_a any_o form_n come_v to_o the_o resemble_v of_o his_o government_n the_o better_a it_o be_v and_o the_o further_a off_o the_o worse_o but_o the_o great_a god_n of_o heaven_n rule_v as_o a_o sovereign_a monarch_n who_o vicegerent_n all_o earthly_a ruler_n be_v and_o to_o who_o they_o must_v give_v a_o account_n and_o therefore_o monarchical_a government_n among_o man_n do_v come_v near_o to_o this_o pattern_n and_o consequent_o must_v be_v own_v as_o the_o best_a form_n 5._o monarchical_a government_n be_v every_o way_n qualify_v to_o answer_v the_o end_n of_o government_n most_o advantageous_o and_o therefore_o it_o be_v the_o best_a the_o end_n of_o government_n be_v make_v and_o execute_v law_n and_o protect_v the_o people_n now_o what_o way_n so_o expeditious_a for_o the_o make_n of_o law_n as_o when_o the_o royal_a assent_n breathe_v life_n into_o they_o when_o they_o be_v draw_v up_o by_o the_o counsel_n of_o many_o wise_a man_n and_o receive_v their_o stamp_n of_o authority_n from_o one_o one_o the_o supreme_a moderator_n and_o adjustor_n of_o all_o different_a interest_n and_o opinion_n what_o method_n so_o uniform_a in_o the_o execution_n of_o the_o law_n as_o when_o all_o proceed_n run_v in_o the_o name_n of_o one_o and_o the_o same_o sacred_a person_n what_o mean_v so_o expedient_a to_o protect_v the_o people_n as_o when_o the_o sword_n be_v in_o the_o hand_n of_o a_o man_n that_o
