But it is just by the Law of Nature that we should give to those that minister for our good Therefore for Naturall Iustice sake Render to all their dues The Ruler beares not the sword in vaine but is the Revenger of wrath on them that doe evill verse 4. But there is no man which doth not evil in some things and consequently is subject to wrath and revenge Therefore even for Policies sake Render to all their dues Ye must be subject not onely for wrath but also because of conscience verse 5. But whatsoever a man is bound to doe for conscience as well as for feare every man is bound to doe in duty Therefore for duties sake Render to all their dues a Non mirum est Paulum tot modis rationibus commendare nobis obedientiam erga Magistratum afficile enim aliequi est superbos hominū sensus in hoc officio continere volumus enim omnes esse domini parere nemini Pet.

Politicall Parents threaten them pro Tribunali and yet can have no amendment I humbly and earnestly intreate you that you will not suffer such Locusts to consume that which might maintaine many able men to doe the King and Countrey service and they thereby make themselves unfit and unable for all imployment And that you will not suffer the Horse-leach the Alehouse-keeper the sinke and common receptacle of the sinnes of a Towne or Citie to thrive by the undoing of the Spendthrift and of the Common-wealth Let not Dalilah be in riched by betraying Sampson to slaverie nor the Harlots ruffle with the Prodigals portion whilest hee eates huskes with Swine but let these fratres in malo partake together of the punishment as they have done of the sinne And whereas there is not onely a Law of God but even of man against the prophaning of the Lords day which concernes the fourth Commandement And another against swearing which concernes the third Commandement Let not the one be broken euen before your seates of Iudicature whilest you have a Pleader vouch his Assertions with his owne oathes in stead of other evidence as if he would make good the defects of his Rhetoricke with his reputation or as if he had received a Double Fee the one to Argue the other to make Affidavit and yet passe unpunished for examples sake Neither leave you God as the Father of Gideon did Baal to plead for himselfe Iudg. 6.32 lest hee plead against you with that Record Zach. 5.1 to 5. which will consume your houses with the Stone and Timber Lest he witnesse against you with that evidence Malac. 3.5 which speedily shall convict you lest hee passe that sentence of guiltinesse upon you frō which you can procure nor pardon nor reprieve Let not the other which concernes the Lords day seeme to have been consented to onely upon the importunitie of a few precise persons but never intended for execution lest God set such a memorandum upon them and you who will not be carefull of the memento set upon that Commandement that who so heareth of it both his eares shall tingle And as you must be thus single-hearted who are the Heart of this Body politike so to the end that the whole Body may be cleare those which are to be your eyes the Iurors and those which are to be their Optickes the evidence must take heed that they bee not blinded either with 1 feare 2 affection or 3 reward for if the eye be darke a Mat. 6.23 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 how farre out of the way must the best members wander Let not therefore a great mans Livery prove like Achans Babylonish garment nor a rich mans purse like his wedge of gold neither let any be found amongst you of the Iurie who like the High Priests against Christ have so much respect to the Common cause for feare it should prejudice your owne interest hereafter that you will forfeit your Private consciences for the present If we let him alone the Romans will come and take away our government Ioh. 11.48 So if you let this or that passe it will be a leading case against your Command or Commoditie and therefore crush it be it right or wrong Yea and those which are to bee your Hands for I must still follow the Allegorie of the body and it fits us your servants and officers must not be like Blastus Herods Chamberlaine who so they may have the feeling of a Fee from them who give it for love of their owne Licentiousnesse and not of Law or Iustice will procure a peace for men as wicked as Tyre Sydon Act. 12.22 These things if you beware of you will make up a sound body beseeming so becautifull a Head as was before described and upon the accomplishment of these Duties Right Reverend Sages you may expect and cannot misse of these Dues Commendations and Cherishing from our Soveraigne Thanks from your Countrie in the generall prayers from the Sutors in particular Temporall honour upon earth and eternall glory in Heaven In hope of which Duties to bee performed by you and Dues to bee prepared for you I will proceed to the Third Thesis which is That although there be Duties to which Christians are so obliged and all have their part in the matter of that obligation or dutie yet they have it in a different degree or manner every man in his proper and peculiar place and order designed in this word Their Their Dues The People must not be busie-bodies to pry into the Princes Dutie the Laitie into the Clergies or the Iuror into the Iudges but every one into his owne as wee have a President Luke 3. vers 10. to 15. where the people doe not come and complaine of the Exaction of the Publicans nor the violence of the Soliders but inquire of their owne dutie what shall we doe and receive directions accordingly The Publicans doe not complaine of the backwardnesse of the people in payments or of the Souldiers in clamorousnesse but inquire what shall we doe and are instructed in their peculiar dutie The Souldiers doe not complaine how the people rebelled and the Publicans with held their pay but come with what shall we doe and are instructed according to their calling Teaching us that none should be Curiosus in aliena Republica and Desidiosus in sua Aug.
