the_o foul_a colour_n of_o guilt_n another_o method_n by_o which_o conscience_n bind_v on_o we_o the_o sense_n of_o duty_n and_o subjection_n to_o those_o set_n over_o we_o be_v the_o obligation_n to_o pray_v for_o they_o according_a to_o that_o great_a rubric_n of_o prayer_n s._n paul_n give_v 2_o i_o exhort_v therefore_o that_o first_o of_o all_o supplication_n prayer_n intercession_n and_o

honesty_n which_o whosoever_o be_v a_o christian_n must_v needs_o observe_v this_o than_o must_v every_o day_n awaken_v and_o keep_v alive_a the_o sense_n of_o duty_n to_o those_o over_o we_o so_o that_o if_o we_o have_v be_v prevail_v on_o to_o undutiful_a course_n when_o we_o retire_v to_o our_o devotion_n this_o must_v certain_o open_v our_o eye_n to_o discern_v and_o repent_v of_o our_o

most_o impious_o in_o opposition_n to_o that_o we_o judge_v ourselves_o bind_v to_o pray_v for_o and_o every_o man_n who_o conscience_n be_v not_o strange_o asleep_a will_v soon_o discover_v this_o

to_o the_o sovereign_a power_n near_o we_o and_o to_o close_a conflict_n with_o our_o daily_a thought_n and_o force_v upon_o we_o a_o frequent_a review_n of_o they_o nor_o be_v this_o a_o blind_a

which_o my_o design_n now_o lead_v i_o wherein_o i_o be_o to_o lay-out_a those_o argument_n that_o conscience_n and_o the_o doctrine_n of_o christianity_n offer_v for_o this_o subjection_n we_o must_v pay_v the_o magistrate_n i_o shall_v not_o meddle_v with_o those_o reason_n that_o may_v be_v draw_v from_o the_o rule_n of_o humane_a policy_n the_o nature_n of_o society_n the_o origine_fw-la and_o

1._o and_o first_o of_o all_o we_o be_v teach_v that_o these_o power_n be_v of_o god_n 3._o that_o they_o be_v the_o ordinance_n of_o god_n his_o deputy_n minister_n and_o vicegerent_n that_o have_v the_o sword_n of_o justice_n put_v in_o their_o hand_n by_o he_o for_o the_o punishment_n of_o evil_a doer_n and_o the_o encouragement_n of_o those_o that_o do_v well_o and_o he_o himself_o have_v say_v they_o be_v god_n 6._o a_o strain_n of_o speech_n that_o if_o divine_a authority_n do_v not_o warrant_v it_o will_v pass_v for_o impudent_a and_o blasphemous_a flattery_n though_o then_o the_o power_n that_o be_v over_o we_o be_v clothe_v with_o our_o nature_n and_o be_v subject_a to_o like_a passion_n and_o infirmity_n with_o we_o and_o live_v and_o die_v like_a man_n yet_o for_o all_o that_o we_o must_v look_v on_o they_o as_o sacred_a and_o divine_a by_o their_o character_n the_o severe_a respect_n that_o conscience_n enjoin_v we_o to_o pay_v authority_n appear_v in_o the_o instance_n of_o david_n who_o though_o pursue_v by_o saul_n with_o all_o the_o violence_n and_o injustice_n of_o oppression_n and_o cruelty_n yet_o when_o he_o have_v he_o in_o his_o hand_n and_o offer_v he_o the_o small_a affront_n of_o cut_v off_o the_o hem_n of_o his_o garment_n 6._o his_o heart_n smite_v he_o for_o it_o this_o be_v a_o character_n of_o a_o man_n according_a to_o god_n heart_n depute_a power_n be_v only_o accountable_a to_o those_o from_o who_o they_o derive_v their_o authority_n so_o the_o high_a power_n be_v depute_v by_o god_n must_v indeed_o render_v to_o he_o a_o severe_a account_n of_o their_o administration_n but_o not_o to_o other_o we_o be_v therefore_o to_o obey_v they_o for_o the_o lord_n sake_n 13._o and_o to_o be_v subject_n to_o they_o for_o conscience-sake_n 2._o another_o consideration_n that_o oblige_v to_o subjection_n which_o religion_n offer_v be_v the_o steady_a and_o firm_a belief_n of_o the_o government_n of_o the_o world_n by_o that_o unerring_a providence_n that_o wise_o maintain_v that_o great_a fabric_n and_o vast_a frame_n of_o being_n which_o itself_o raise_v out_o of_o nothing_o we_o be_v apt_a upon_o the_o first_o appearance_n of_o thing_n to_o judge_v rash_o even_o before_o we_o have_v see_v all_o the_o side_n and_o secret_n of_o humane_a counsel_n which_o will_v often_o alter_v our_o thought_n very_o much_o from_o our_o overforward_a judgement_n but_o the_o secret_n of_o the_o divine_a counsel_n lie_v hide_v from_o all_o the_o live_n and_o yet_o the_o long_a experience_n which_o the_o oeconomy_n of_o the_o world_n offer_v we_o may_v just_o convince_v we_o that_o we_o be_v not_o to_o pass_v sentence_n hasty_o and_o that_o often_o those_o thing_n which_o do_v look_v most_o cloudy_a and_o threaten_v some_o dismal_a consequence_n do_v by_o the_o secret_a governing_n of_o that_o supreme_a mind_n produce_v effect_n very_o different_a from_o those_o that_o not_o without_o great_a probability_n be_v fear_v this_o therefore_o must_v clear_v the_o melancholy_n of_o our_o discourage_v and_o deject_v mind_n and_o dissipate_v those_o thick_a mist_n of_o fear_n and_o jealousy_n which_o may_v

those_o motion_n they_o observe_v and_o yet_o can_v force_v the_o sun_n both_o to_o stop_v and_o to_o give_v ground_n when_o he_o will_v and_o can_v make_v the_o sea_n to_o rise_v up_o in_o hill_n be_v able_a to_o extricate_v the_o dark_a and_o most_o involve_a raveling_n of_o second_o cause_n we_o be_v therefore_o secure_a 28_o know_v that_o all_o thing_n work_v together_o for_o good_a to_o
