and_o unto_o the_o word_n of_o the_o oath_n of_o god_n be_v the_o oath_n of_o god_n what_o it_o be_v the_o oath_n of_o god_n he_o call_v the_o obedience_n the_o which_o we_o do_v owe_v unto_o god_n

so_o far_o that_o god_n have_v reserve_v unto_o himself_o his_o authority_n and_o obedience_n by_o who_o power_n and_o authority_n king_n do_v reign_v we_o must_v in_o such_o sort_n obey_v the_o king_n that_o obedience_n unto_o god_n be_v not_o break_v for_o it_o be_v a_o right_a and_o due_a obedience_n first_o that_o we_o obey_v the_o voice_n of_o god_n the_o which_o also_o the_o mouth_n of_o the_o king_n ought_v to_o sound_v magistrate_n the_o chief_a duty_n of_o the_o magistrate_n for_o it_o be_v the_o first_o and_o the_o chief_a duty_n of_o the_o magistrate_n that_o he_o be_v a_o

first_o that_o they_o shall_v give_v a_o account_n of_o their_o life_n unto_o god_n the_o chief_a lord_n and_o judge_n for_o that_o god_n do_v mark_v they_o to_o punish_v they_o according_a unto_o

trouble_v by_o wicked_a magistrate_n we_o must_v not_o marvel_v that_o be_v to_o say_v we_o must_v not_o deny_v the_o providence_n of_o god_n with_o angry_a and_o grudge_a mind_n but_o we_o must_v do_v our_o duty_n and_o hold_v this_o sure_o that_o the_o magistrate_n shall_v be_v most_o severelye_o punish_v for_o the_o forsake_v and_o break_v of_o his_o office_n in_o the_o mean_a season_n that_o god_n a_o wonderful_a worke-mayster_n in_o his_o good_a time_n will_v bring_v forth_o light_o out_o of_o this_o darkness_n that_o be_v to_o say_v will_v preserve_v the_o fellowship_n of_o man_n and_o in_o it_o the_o church_n even_o by_o ungodlye_a magistrate_n this_o seem_v unto_o i_o to_o be_v the_o most_o simple_a and_o plain_a meaning_n of_o this_o place_n in_o other_o exposition_n of_o this_o place_n he_o allude_v unto_o the_o fable_n of_o the_o poet_n who_o do_v feign_v that_o astraea_n the_o goddess_n of_o justice_n do_v first_o forsake_v the_o city_n and_o last_o of_o all_o the_o
