A42273 The grumbletonian crew reprehended being reflections upon the ungrateful and unmannerly behaviour of that new-upstart sect: occasioned by the scrupling to take the new oath of allegiance. Together with some good advice, to such of them, as are yet capable of it; and not too far advanced towards Bedlam. By Sir P. Philopolites. With allowance.

ourselves_o obnoxious_a to_o the_o government_n we_o live_v so_o happy_o under_o and_o upon_o this_o ground_n as_o the_o same_o apostle_n far_o enlarge_v i_o think_v we_o must_v needs_o be_v subject_n not_o only_o for_o wrath_n but_o even_o also_o for_o conscience_n sake_n and_o to_o be_v a_o little_o far_a serious_a in_o this_o matter_n do_v but_o consider_v still_o the_o desperate_a condition_n we_o be_v late_o in_o this_o can_v be_v deny_v i_o trow_v and_o also_o the_o late_a seem_a impossibility_n of_o our_o deliverance_n so_o that_o we_o be_v ready_a to_o conclude_v with_o david_n in_o his_o case_n that_o he_o shall_v certain_o one_o day_n perish_v by_o the_o hand_n of_o saul_n i_o say_v do_v but_o consider_v this_o serious_o in_o all_o its_o circumstance_n too_o many_o to_o be_v

since_o the_o write_n of_o the_o holy_a scripture_n and_o though_o we_o be_v bind_v in_o matter_n of_o government_n to_o person_n and_o family_n so_o long_o as_o their_o supremacy_n continue_v yet_o god_n the_o great_a proprietor_n and_o lord_n of_o all_o be_v not_o so_o but_o pull_v down_o one_o in_o case_n of_o maladministration_n and_o then_o set_v up_o another_o dispose_v of_o all_o the_o

with_o no_o further_a argument_n upon_o this_o topic_n but_o shall_v say_v something_o in_o reference_n to_o the_o law_n of_o our_o land_n which_o so_o far_o as_o they_o entrench_v not_o upon_o the_o
