i_o will_v not_o swear_v that_o the_o proverb_n be_v not_o fulfil_v ●●●●re_fw-la quod_fw-la fi●_n ingrato_fw-la have_v thus_o deduce_v the_o history_n of_o self-defence_n from_o the_o very_a first_o king_n of_o the_o israelite_n and_o show_v by_o instance_n that_o as_o it_o begin_v with_o king_n there_o so_o it_o continue_v as_o long_o as_o the_o jewish_a government_n last_v and_o adduce_v several_a instance_n of_o it_o in_o the_o primitive_a time_n but_o more_o especial_o in_o the_o time_n of_o the_o reformation_n i_o shall_v conclude_v with_o a_o few_o remark_n upon_o the_o author_n preface_n where_o he_o be_v principal_o concern_v he_o have_v do_v nothing_o in_o the_o rest_n but_o bring_v in_o some_o far_o fetch_v consequence_n he_o begin_v his_o preface_n with_o tell_v you_o that_o he_o always_o think_v that_o the_o doctrine_n of_o nonresistance_n have_v be_v a_o doctrine_n found_v in_o the_o holy_a scripture_n 1._o page_n 1._o etc._n etc._n which_o be_v much_o the_o same_o with_o the_o die_a testimony_n of_o a_o late_a reverend_a prelate_n of_o the_o church_n of_o england_n who_o have_v suck_v it_o in_o with_o his_o mother_n milk_n so_o that_o by_o his_o own_o word_n he_o seem_v never_o to_o have_v impartial_o weigh_v the_o strength_n of_o argumentsion_n both_o side_n but_o have_v take_v it_o upon_o trust_n so_o that_o it_o can_v have_v little_a weight_n with_o any_o consider_a man._n but_o what_o he_o say_v as_o to_o its_o be_v maintain_v in_o the_o first_o age_n of_o the_o reformation_n be_v easy_o say_v than_o prove_v that_o the_o first_o reformer_n of_o the_o church_n of_o england_n acknowledge_v all_o due_a subjection_n to_o authority_n in_o the_o same_o some_o as_o all_o other_o church_n and_o every_o honest_a man_n do_v viz._n to_o prince_n act_v legal_o and_o those_o who_o be_v true_a father_n of_o their_o country_n be_v beyond_o ●●l_a doubt_n but_o that_o the_o first_o reformer_n of_o the_o church_n of_o england_n do_v maintain_v nonresistance_n to_o the_o same_o height_n that_o this_o author_n and_o his_o party_n do_v be_v more_o than_o he_o can_v evince_v since_o there_o be_v nothing_o of_o it_o in_o the_o 39_o article_n and_o the_o citation_n which_o he_o bring_v out_o of_o the_o homily_n seem_v to_o affect_v private_a person_n and_o not_o a_o community_n but_o if_o this_o be_v always_o the_o profess_a doctrine_n of_o the_o church_n of_o england_n that_o it_o be_v in_o no_o case_n lawful_a for_o subject_n to_o resist_v of_o defend_v themselves_o against_o the_o tyrannical_a invasion_n of_o their_o prince_n how_o come_v she_o to_o approve_v of_o and_o contribute_v to_o the_o assist_v of_o protestant_n actual_o in_o arm_n against_o their_o king_n particular_o those_o of_o the_o seven_o province_n those_o of_o scotland_n and_o of_o late_a day_n the_o protestant_n of_o rochel_n i_o believe_v that_o author_n will_v scarce_o venture_v to_o say_v that_o she_o do_v not_o approve_v it_o and_o therefore_o it_o must_v either_o be_v grant_v that_o she_o do_v not_o maintain_v nonresistance_n in_o that_o height_n as_o our_o author_n and_o his_o party_n do_v or_o that_o she_o act_v very_o dissonant_o to_o her_o principle_n which_o will_v be_v a_o great_a reflection_n on_o so_o great_a and_o pious_a divine_n as_o live_v then_o for_o have_v she_o be_v of_o opinion_n that_o it_o be_v unlawful_a for_o subject_n upon_o any_o account_n to_o defend_v themselves_o against_o the_o unjust_a oppression_n of_o their_o sovereign_n she_o must_v needs_o at_o the_o same_o time_n see_v that_o it_o be_v unlawful_a for_o she_o to_o be_v aider_n and_o abettor_n with_o they_o and_o partake_v of_o their_o sin_n and_o so_o instead_o of_o approve_v or_o send_v of_o supply_n to_o they_o she_o shall_v have_v send_v they_o over_o that_o christian_a exhortation_n that_o it_o be_v their_o indispensable_a duty_n to_o submit_v their_o neck_n to_o whatever_o their_o sovereign_n shall_v impose_v upon_o they_o and_o suffer_v it_o patient_o and_o by_o no_o mean_n to_o resist_v their_o superior_a power_n but_o we_o have_v nothing_o upon_o record_n that_o any_o of_o her_o divine_n at_o that_o time_n live_v object_v any_o thing_n against_o it_o and_o therefore_o we_o may_v with_o all_o the_o reason_n of_o the_o world_n conclude_v that_o have_v it_o be_v she_o own_o case_n she_o will_v have_v take_v the_o same_o method_n of_o defend_v herself_o as_o other_o protestant_n do_v for_o she_o have_v but_o a_o little_a before_o be_v under_o the_o same_o trial_n herself_o and_o therefore_o she_o know_v experience_n than_o our_o author_n and_o his_o party_n to_o who_o we_o may_v true_o apply_v that_o of_o our_o saviour_n to_o his_o disciple_n which_o they_o have_v so_o often_o apply_v to_o other_o that_o they_o know_v not_o what_o manner_n of_o spirit_n they_o be_v of_o as_o to_o what_o he_o say_v after_o ward_n of_o her_o loyalty_n during_o queen_n mary_n reign_n it_o may_v be_v answer_v that_o in_o king_n edward_n the_o six_o day_n she_o be_v but_o in_o her_o infancy_n and_o it_o be_v probable_a that_o the_o protestant_n at_o that_o time_n be_v not_o so_o strong_a in_o england_n but_o that_o the_o papist_n clothe_v with_o authority_n will_v have_v be_v too_o hard_o for_o they_o beside_o that_o the_o protestant_a party_n be_v at_o that_o time_n weaken_v by_o the_o faction_n and_o animosity_n of_o some_o great_a man_n which_o no_o doubt_n as_o it_o be_v promote_v by_o the_o papal_a faction_n so_o give_v great_a advantage_n to_o their_o enemy_n as_o by_o the_o heat_n of_o our_o present_a nonresistance_n man_n great_a advantage_n be_v now_o give_v to_o the_o common_a enemy_n so_o as_o they_o be_v become_v very_o insolent_a who_o otherwise_o be_v there_o no_o fowd_n among_o we_o dare_v not_o so_o much_o as_o mutter_v as_o to_o her_o be_v so_o active_a in_o bring_v queen_n mary_n to_o the_o throne_n i_o think_v it_o may_v deserve_v enquiry_n whether_o she_o may_v not_o have_v do_v as_o well_o if_o she_o have_v exclude_v queen_n mary_n and_o set_v up_o queen_n elizabeth_n immediate_o upon_o king_n edward_n vi_o death_n since_o she_o can_v have_v sufficient_o justify_v herself_o in_o so_o do_v in_o as_o much_o as_o king_n henry_n viii_o marriage_n with_o her_o mother_n be_v declare_v unlawful_a by_o the_o most_o earn_v divine_n and_o casuist_n in_o europe_n as_o be_v not_o only_o forbid_v in_o the_o old_a testament_n but_o likewise_o in_o the_o new_a by_o john_n the_o baptist_n when_o he_o tell_v herod_n that_o it_o be_v not_o lawful_a for_o he_o to_o have_v his_o brother_n wife_n which_o be_v true_a queen_n mary_n have_v no_o right_a to_o succeed_v since_o she_o be_v illegitimate_a more_o than_o the_o late_a duke_n of_o monmouth_n have_v so_o that_o the_o loyalty_n during_o the_o marian_n persecution_n will_v not_o be_v very_o much_o to_o his_o purpose_n and_o whereas_o that_o author_n seem_v to_o obviate_v a_o objection_n viz._n that_o adversary_n pretend_v that_o there_o be_v something_o of_o self_n in_o the_o case_n that_o make_v they_o stand_v up_o so_o much_o for_o nonresistance_n 1._o page_n 1._o i_o do_v not_o see_v notwithstanding_o all_o he_o have_v say_v for_o the_o vindication_n of_o his_o party_n but_o it_o be_v still_o unanswered_a since_o there_o have_v never_o be_v a_o time_n since_o the_o church_n of_o england_n be_v in_o she_o most_o flourish_a state_n that_o she_o have_v occasion_n to_o discover_v her_o loyalty_n towards_o persecute_v prince_n and_o since_o i_o know_v this_o gentleman_n reckon_v only_o those_o of_o his_o own_o size_n the_o true_a churchman_n they_o have_v sufficient_o discover_v this_o to_o the_o world_n when_o they_o brand_v the_o most_o learned_a most_o religious_a most_o moderate_a and_o numerous_a party_n of_o the_o church_n with_o the_o opprobrious_a name_n of_o timmer_n i_o will_v desire_v he_o to_o pause_v a_o little_a and_o consider_v upon_o what_o ground_n it_o be_v that_o they_o find_v their_o nonresistance_n upon_o there_o be_v two_o great_a command_n upon_o which_o the_o whole_a duty_n of_o man_n hang_v viz._n thou_o shall_v love_v the_o lord_n thy_o god_n with_o all_o thy_o heart_n etc._n etc._n and_o thou_o shall_v love_v by_o neighbour_n at_o thyself_o they_o can_v say_v it_o depend_v on_o the_o former_a at_o least_o immediate_o though_o there_o be_v not_o want_v instance_n of_o too_o many_o of_o that_o sort_n of_o man_n who_o both_o by_o their_o doctrine_n and_o practice_n show_v much_o more_o zeal_n to_o the_o earthly_a
