their_o second_o argument_n be_v draw_v from_o the_o example_n of_o our_o saviour_n in_o which_o we_o confess_v we_o be_v not_o only_o to_o adore_v and_o admire_v but_o also_o to_o imitate_v all_o that_o meekness_n &_o lowlyness_n which_o render_v his_o life_n glorious_a in_o holiness_n yet_o these_o man_n dare_v not_o say_v that_o the_o number_n of_o our_o duty_n be_v bound_v by_o his_o

submit_v to_o their_o lawful_a superior_n when_o they_o command_v thing_n just_a and_o in_o their_o power_n and_o this_o we_o be_v sure_o may_v be_v collect_v from_o the_o word_n that_o proceed_v out_o of_o our_o saviour_n mouth_n nor_o be_v it_o any_o more_o to_o the_o purpose_n when_o they_o say_v that_o it_o be_v a_o marvellous_a difficulty_n for_o any_o to_o think_v serious_o that_o he_o who_o be_v so_o full_a of_o compassion_n towards_o all_o the_o son_n of_o man_n shall_v ever_o give_v the_o least_o consent_n unto_o the_o punishment_n and_o gradual_a destruction_n of_o those_o who_o in_o sincerity_n desire_v to_o love_n and_o obey_v they_o and_o do_v yet_o unavoidable_o mistake_v in_o their_o apprehension_n of_o some_o few_o thing_n plead_v to_o be_v according_a to_o his_o mind_n
