plead_v by_o rebel_n to_o justify_v resistance_n for_o the_o remove_n of_o this_o objection_n many_o thing_n be_v to_o be_v consider_v 1._o that_o david_n case_n be_v particular_a for_o he_o be_v already_o anoint_v unto_o the_o kingdom_n and_o be_v haeres_fw-la viventis_fw-la not_o only_o lawful_a heir_n but_o as_o sure_a of_o the_o crown_n as_o if_o saul_n have_v be_v dead_a 2._o that_o the_o little_a army_n which_o david_n have_v be_v not_o of_o his_o own_o raise_v but_o they_o resort_v unto_o he_o of_o their_o own_o accord_n partly_o for_o refuge-sake_n for_o they_o be_v indigent_a and_o disconted_a person_n partly_o to_o show_v david_n their_o best_a respect_n partly_o out_o of_o pity_n and_o compassion_n to_o a_o wrong_a prince_n and_o the_o heart_n of_o man_n be_v general_o pitiful_a and_o compassionate_a in_o such_o a_o case_n and_o partly_o to_o endear_v themselves_o to_o david_n and_o to_o make_v their_o fortune_n by_o he_o when_o he_o shall_v come_v to_o the_o crown_n 3._o that_o when_o the_o man_n be_v come_v david_n use_v they_o rather_o as_o a_o friendly_a retinue_n than_o as_o a_o formidable_a army_n to_o secure_v his_o own_o life_n from_o the_o hand_n of_o pickthank_n who_o otherwise_o may_v be_v ready_a to_o shed_v his_o blood_n to_o curry_v favour_n with_o saul_n and_o without_o saul_n order_n and_o commission_n 4._o that_o when_o david_n employ_v his_o retinue_n to_o military_a purpose_n and_o after_o a_o military_a manner_n it_o be_v against_o those_o people_n who_o be_v enemy_n to_o israel_n and_o who_o by_o the_o command_n of_o god_n be_v to_o be_v destroy_v and_o even_o then_o too_o david_n act_v under_o king_n achish_n as_o his_o chief_a commissioner_n and_o general_n 5._o that_o from_o the_o begin_n to_o the_o end_n of_o the_o whole_a matter_n though_o david_n have_v so_o many_o sword_n at_o his_o command_n yet_o he_o never_o once_o resist_v his_o own_o dread_a sovereign_n but_o only_o flee_v from_o he_o and_o flee_v with_o more_o security_n than_o he_o can_v have_v do_v otherwise_o nay_o though_o david_n have_v to_o the_o fair_a opportunity_n of_o make_v saul_n his_o prisoner_n and_o of_o take_v away_o his_o life_n one_o in_o the_o cave_n at_o engedi_n 1_o sam._n 24._o and_o another_o on_o the_o hill_n of_o hachilah_n 1_o sam._n 26_o yet_o still_o he_o forbear_v all_o manner_n of_o violence_n at_o both_o time_n use_v this_o heroic_a and_o loyal_a expression_n the_o lord_n forbid_v that_o i_o shall_v do_v this_o thing_n unto_o my_o master_n the_o lord_n anoint_v to_o stretch_v forth_o my_o hand_n against_o he_o see_v he_o be_v the_o anoint_v of_o the_o lord_n whence_o i_o proceed_v to_o the_o next_o conclusion_n that_o the_o destruction_n of_o the_o lord_n be_v anoint_v the_o stretch_v forth_o the_o hand_n to_o invade_v his_o life_n or_o dominion_n be_v of_o all_o other_o act_n of_o violence_n the_o most_o fearful_a and_o horrid_a crime_n the_o lord_n forbid_v that_o i_o shall_v do_v this_o thing_n say_v david_n when_o the_o kingly_a prophet_n david_n have_v privy_o cut_v off_o the_o skirt_n of_o saul_n robe_n though_o it_o be_v only_o with_o a_o design_n to_o let_v he_o see_v that_o he_o have_v be_v in_o his_o power_n his_o heart_n smite_v he_o as_o if_o he_o have_v make_v a_o breach_n upon_o god_n law_n and_o have_v be_v guilty_a of_o a_o very_a unworthy_a and_o disloyal_a act_n for_o the_o oil_n upon_o a_o king_n head_n like_o the_o ointment_n upon_o the_o head_n of_o aaron_n that_o descend_v upon_o his_o skirt_n make_v even_o his_o vestment_n sacred_a but_o with_o what_o agony_n and_o convulsion_n will_v his_o soul_n have_v be_v torture_v have_v the_o king_n of_o israel_n be_v mock_v by_o such_o a_o juncto_fw-la of_o jew_n as_o butcher_v the_o king_n of_o england_n and_o in_o the_o name_n of_o the_o lord_n vie_v for_o wickedness_n with_o all_o the_o devil_n in_o hell_n the_o story_n of_o saul_n death_n be_v a_o very_a sad_a relation_n all_o the_o part_n and_o appurtenance_n thereof_o together_o with_o saul_n own_o gild_n and_o the_o sin_n of_o his_o armour-bearer_n and_o this_o amalekite_n be_v right_o consider_v but_o yet_o there_o be_v some_o passage_n in_o the_o story_n which_o it_o may_v not_o be_v amiss_o for_o we_o to_o observe_v 1._o concern_v the_o armour-bearer_n saul_n command_v he_o to_o draw_v his_o sword_n and_o to_o thrust_v he_o through_o therewith_o be_v desirous_a rather_o to_o die_v by_o the_o hand_n of_o his_o own_o servant_n than_o to_o be_v abuse_v by_o the_o uncircumcised_a philistine_n but_o notwithstanding_o the_o king_n own_o command_n the_o armour-bearer_n refuse_v to_o hearken_v in_o that_o particular_a he_o be_v sore_o afraid_a say_v the_o text_n 1_o sam._n 31.4_o read_v on_o now_o to_o the_o next_o v._n and_o you_o will_v find_v that_o this_o armour-bearer_n fear_v not_o to_o kill_v himself_o though_o he_o be_v sore_o afraid_a to_o kill_v his_o sovereign_n by_o which_o instance_n it_o be_v clear_a not_o only_o that_o he_o value_v his_o prince_n life_n far_o above_o his_o own_o but_o also_o that_o he_o think_v it_o much_o a_o more_o pardonable_a sin_n to_o be_v a_o selfmurderer_n than_o to_o be_v a_o regicide_n though_o tempt_v to_o be_v so_o by_o his_o sovereign_n command_n doubtless_o for_o a_o man_n to_o kill_v himself_o be_v a_o very_a horrid_a sin_n because_o it_o be_v his_o last_o act_n whereby_o in_o humane_a probability_n he_o hurri_v himself_o off_o the_o earth_n into_o hell._n yet_o this_o armour-bearer_n choose_v rather_o to_o die_v with_o the_o gild_n of_o his_o own_o blood_n upon_o his_o hand_n than_o to_o live_v guilty_a of_o the_o blood_n of_o the_o lord_n be_v anoint_v and_o before_o he_o will_v be_v such_o a_o traitor_n run_v a_o sad_a venture_n of_o be_v

not_o of_o malice_n but_o upon_o saul_n entreaty_n though_o he_o do_v it_o when_o saul_n be_v now_o half_o breathless_a and_o when_o he_o be_v sure_o otherwise_o to_o be_v kill_v by_o the_o philistine_n though_o he_o do_v it_o to_o rid_v he_o of_o his_o present_a fear_n and_o pain_n and_o strike_v he_o more_o like_o a_o friend_n than_o a_o enemy_n do_v no_o other_o than_o what_o saul_n
