neglect_n of_o so_o necessary_a and_o fundamental_a a_o duty_n as_o honour_v the_o king_n and_o yield_a obedience_n to_o his_o law_n that_o submission_n to_o lawful_a authority_n and_o obedience_n either_o active_a or_o passive_a be_v a_o most_o necessary_a duty_n no_o christian_a can_v or_o will_v deny_v i_o say_v obedience_n either_o active_a or_o passive_a active_a in_o thing_n lawful_a passive_a in_o other_o now_o if_o man_n bring_v themselves_o into_o danger_n or_o lie_v under_o any_o hardship_n for_o disobey_v the_o king_n and_o not_o perform_v his_o lawful_a command_n what_o joy_n of_o heart_n their_o passive_a obedience_n can_v be_v to_o they_o or_o what_o great_a content_n or_o comfort_n they_o can_v find_v in_o their_o suffering_n i_o can_v conceiv_v but_o shall_v leau_v it_o to_o all_o prudent_a and_o unprejudiced_a and_o impartial_a man_n to_o judge_v and_o here_o i_o shall_v only_o add_v this_o as_o to_o the_o matter_n of_o nonconforming_a to_o the_o king_n ecclesiastical_a law_n and_o so_o draw_v to_o a_o conclusion_n let_v man_n diligent_o take_v heed_n and_o beware_v lest_o in_o stead_n of_o conscientious_a nonconformist_n for_o some_o such_o i_o believ_n there_o be_v though_o its_o pity_n there_o shall_v be_v man_n of_o of_o such_o weak_a and_o tender_a conscience_n that_o for_o want_v of_o due_a instruction_n and_o right_a information_n they_o be_v real_o and_o true_o dissatisfy_v i_o say_v let_v man_n take_v heed_n lest_o in_o stead_n of_o be_v such_o they_o prove_v as_o too_o many_o i_o fear_v there_o be_v perverse_n and_o stubborn_a and_o obstinate_a schismatic_n or_o which_o be_v all_o one_o fanatic_a hypocritical_a rebel_n and_o if_o so_o then_o as_o i_o say_v before_o to_o the_o profane_a rant_a royalist_n that_o by_o their_o vicious_a and_o ungodly_a life_n they_o bring_v a_o scandal_n and_o reproach_n upon_o loyalty_n so_o i_o must_v say_v to_o these_o man_n that_o by_o their_o spurn_v at_o lawful_a authority_n and_o their_o undutifulness_n to_o the_o high_a power_n they_o bring_v a_o scandal_n and_o reproach_n upon_o christianity_n while_o they_o make_v religion_n a_o cloak_n for_o rebellion_n and_o pretend_v conscience_n for_o their_o disobedience_n i_o have_v be_v the_o long_o upon_o this_o because_o indeed_o it_o be_v morbus_fw-la epidemicus_fw-la the_o disease_n of_o the_o time_n and_o i_o will_v fain_o if_o possible_a help_v to_o beat_v man_n out_o of_o this_o hold_n viz._n of_o make_v the_o fear_n of_o god_n a_o plea_n for_o not_o honour_v the_o king_n a_o pretence_n so_o direct_o contrary_a to_o the_o doctrine_n of_o st._n peter_n here_o in_o the_o text_n where_o he_o join_v these_o two_o duty_n together_o in_o a_o bond_n of_o inseparable_a union_n i_o say_v these_o two_o duty_n which_o i_o have_v hitherto_o prove_v to_o be_v like_o hippocrates_n twin_n that_o live_v and_o die_v together_o fear_v god_n honour_v the_o king_n so_o that_o no_o man_n can_v do_v the_o one_o and_o omit_v the_o other_o and_o as_o he_o that_o be_v a_o profane_a wicked_a and_o ungodly_a man_n can_v be_v a_o true_a faithful_a and_o loyal_a subject_n so_o on_o the_o other_o side_n he_o that_o be_v a_o fall_v disloyal_a undutiful_a subject_n pretend_v what_o he_o will_v can_v be_v a_o holy_a good_a and_o godly_a christian._n 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d which_o be_v the_o thing_n i_o have_v be_v prove_v all_o this_o while_n viz._n that_o no_o man_n can_v true_o fear_v god_n but_o he_o that_o honour_v the_o king_n now_o there_o be_v several_a way_n of_o honour_v or_o give_v honour_n to_o any_o several_a sort_n of_o honour_n i_o mean_v of_o honour_n strict_o take_v as_o here_o in_o the_o text_n for_o otherwise_o honour_n be_v take_v in_o a_o more_o large_a acception_n as_o oppose_v to_o contempt_n scorn_n or_o hatred_n and_o so_o in_o the_o begin_n of_o the_o vers_n honour_n all_o man_n that_o be_v have_v a_o due_a respect_n to_o all_o do_v not_o hate_v nor_o scorn_n despise_v nor_o contemn_v any_o but_o honour_n strict_o and_o proper_o take_v be_v only_o due_a to_o superior_n and_o so_o in_o this_o since_o there_o be_v several_a sort_n of_o honour_n these_o three_o especial_o the_o honour_n of_o obedience_n the_o honour_n of_o reverence_n and_o the_o honour_n of_o maintenance_n and_o all_o these_o comprehend_v and_o include_v in_o the_o word_n honour_n both_o in_o the_o five_o commandment_n where_o we_o be_v bid_v to_o honour_v our_o parent_n and_o also_o here_o in_o the_o text_n which_o be_v a_o branch_n of_o that_o commandment_n where_o we_o be_v bid_v to_o honour_v the_o king_n of_o the_o first_o of_o these_o i_o have_v be_v speak_v all_o this_o while_n viz._n of_o the_o honour_n of_o obedience_n and_o for_o the_o two_o latter_a the_o honour_n of_o reverence_n and_o the_o honour_n of_o maintenance_n as_o i_o have_v now_o no_o time_n so_o no_o need_n i_o hope_v to_o say_v much_o of_o they_o for_o that_o both_o these_o sort_n of_o honour_n be_v due_a to_o the_o king_n or_o supreme_a magistrate_n as_o well_o as_o that_o of_o obedience_n be_v out_o of_o all_o question_n it_o be_v so_o consonant_a to_o the_o principle_n both_o of_o religion_n and_o reason_n and_o so_o agreeable_a to_o the_o rule_n both_o of_o divinity_n and_o policy_n so_o that_o most_o man_n yield_v their_o assent_n to_o the_o truth_n of_o it_o as_o to_o the_o theory_n though_o in_o the_o practice_n sometime_o they_o fail_v and_o fall_v short_a so_o then_o beside_o that_o of_o obedience_n there_o be_v these_o two_o other_o sort_n of_o honour_n more_o both_o confess_o due_a to_o king_n and_o prince_n viz._n the_o honour_n of_o reverence_n and_o the_o honour_n of_o maintenance_n the_o one_o for_o the_o safeguard_n and_o defence_n of_o their_o royal_a person_n the_o other_o for_o the_o support_n of_o their_o regal_a estate_n crown_n and_o dignity_n for_o first_o if_o their_o person_n be_v once_o slight_v undervalue_v and_o disesteem_v their_o life_n will_v soon_o be_v in_o danger_n and_o then_o again_o if_o their_o jura_fw-la regalia_z their_o regality_n or_o revenue_n of_o the_o crown_n be_v clip_v and_o cut_v short_a the_o reverence_n of_o their_o person_n will_v not_o long_o continue_v therefore_o we_o find_v honour_n in_o scripture_n sometime_o put_v for_o supply_v or_o maintenance_n or_o payment_n of_o right_n and_o due_n as_o of_o tithe_n or_o tribute_n and_o offering_n and_o the_o like_a honour_n the_o lord_n with_o thy_o substance_n and_o so_o the_o king_n too_o honour_n widow_n that_o be_v maintain_v they_o

will_v take_v up_o a_o man_n whole_a life_n to_o learn_v they_o the_o first_o of_o they_o especial_o fear_v god_n which_o the_o royal_a preacher_n in_o the_o close_a of_o his_o sermon_n make_v the_o
