A91279 The signal loyalty and devotion of God's true saints and pious Christians, especially in this our island towards their kings: (as also of some idolatrous pagans) Both before, and under the law and gospel; expressed by their private and publick prayers, supplications, intercessions, thanksgivings, well-wishes for the health, safety, long life, prosperity, temporal, spiritual, eternal felicity of the kings and emperours under whom they lived, whether pagan or Christian, bad or good, heterodox or orthodox, Papists or Protestants, persecutors or protectors of them: and likewise for their royal issue, posterity realms; and by their dutiful conscientious obedience and subjection to them; with the true reasons thereof from scripture and policy. Evidenced by presidents and testimonies in all ages, worthy the knowledg, imitation, and serious consideration of our present degenerated disloyal, antimonarchical generation. In two parts. By William Prynne Esq; late bencher, and reader of Lincolns-In; Signal loyalty and devotion of Gods true saints and pious Christians, towards their kings. Parts 1 and 2.

the_o holy_a scripture_n from_o they_o from_o my_o childhood_n which_o bring_v i_o into_o the_o knowledge_n of_o the_o truth_n but_o when_o i_o become_v a_o man_n and_o have_v very_o frequent_o use_v

i_o observe_v the_o great_a discord_n and_o vehement_a dissension_n of_o many_o both_o between_o themselves_o and_o also_o against_o the_o divine_a scripture_n and_o that_o which_o be_v most_o horrid_a the_o very_a precedent_n of_o the_o church_n constitute_v in_o so_o great_a a_o dissension_n both_o of_o mind_n and_o opinion_n between_o themselves_o and_o fight_v against_o the_o command_n of_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n with_o so_o great_a contrariety_n as_o even_o cruel_o to_o dissipate_v the_o church_n of_o christ_n and_o to_o disturb_v his_o redeem_a flock_n without_o any_o

of_o so_o great_a a_o evil_n may_v be_v at_o first_o i_o be_v as_o it_o be_v in_o some_o thick_a darkness_n and_o as_o if_o set_v in_o a_o balance_n i_o do_v turn_v myself_o now_o on_o this_o side_n now_o on_o that_o side_n one_o scale_n draw_v i_o to_o itself_o by_o reason_n of_o the_o long_a custom_n of_o man_n but_o the_o other_o pull_v i_o back_o for_o the_o truth_n acknowledge_v in_o the_o holy_a scripture_n now_o when_o as_o this_o have_v for_o some_o space_n and_o very_o often_o happen_v while_o i_o be_v search_v out_o the_o cause_n of_o this_o evil_a as_o i_o have_v relate_v that_o

i_o do_v think_v even_o of_o these_o present_a dissension_n that_o which_o true_o be_v terrible_a to_o be_v speak_v and_o perchance_o a_o paradox_n but_o if_o it_o shall_v be_v consider_v and_o

among_o those_o who_o be_v in_o the_o church_n of_o christ_n while_o every_o one_o have_v revolt_v from_o the_o doctrine_n of_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n and_o challenge_v to_o himself_o by_o

when_o i_o search_v this_o with_o myself_o and_o stand_v amaze_v at_o this_o monstrous_a impiety_n &_o do_v yet_o further_o search_v it_o out_o i_o be_v far_o persuade_v that_o the_o foresay_a cause_n be_v true_a by_o nothing_o more_o than_o from_o the_o thing_n of_o this_o life_n for_o i_o see_v every_o state_n of_o a_o multitude_n well_o compound_v and_o to_o obtain_v agreement_n and_o consist_v
