do_v a_o little_a warm_o inveigh_v against_o our_o late_a rebel_n and_o indeed_o the_o whole_a race_n of_o they_o for_o nigh_o fifty_o year_n for_o this_o grand_a prevarication_n the_o make_v conscience_n a_o cloak_n for_o maliciousness_n and_o suborn_v the_o religion_n of_o the_o bless_a jesus_n to_o abet_v such_o barbarous_a villainy_n as_o have_v scarce_o be_v do_v by_o pagan_n and_o infidel_n there_o be_v not_o name_n bad_a enough_o for_o such_o profligate_n unless_o they_o be_v those_o of_o that_o curse_a apostate_n spirit_n who_o be_v always_o a_o devil_n but_o never_o more_o so_o than_o when_o he_o assume_v the_o form_n of_o a_o angel_n of_o light_n 3._o and_o last_o this_o may_v be_v of_o good_a effect_n to_o endear_v religion_n to_o our_o governor_n which_o be_v so_o serviceable_a to_o government_n and_o engage_v all_o we_o who_o be_v subject_n to_o mix_v religion_n with_o our_o loyalty_n and_o show_v ourselves_o to_o be_v good_a christian_n as_o well_o as_o good_a subject_n yea_o to_o be_v the_o one_o that_o we_o may_v be_v the_o other_o i_o press_v not_o the_o first_o of_o these_o and_o we_o be_v all_o happy_a that_o i_o need_v not_o bless_v be_v god_n we_o have_v a_o defender_n of_o our_o faith_n a_o prince_n to_o who_o it_o have_v so_o far_o approve_v itself_o as_o to_o engage_v his_o royal_a word_n for_o its_o protection_n in_o this_o all_o honest_a man_n rejoice_v and_o triumph_n and_o bless_v god_n for_o the_o security_n of_o it_o no_o man_n ever_o doubt_v the_o sincerity_n of_o it_o but_o those_o who_o own_o guilt_n and_o hypocrisy_n render_v they_o always_o suspicious_a and_o diffident_a of_o all_o man_n but_o i_o beseech_v you_o give_v i_o leave_v to_o press_v the_o second_o and_o effectual_o prevail_v with_o we_o all_o to_o make_v real_a conscience_n of_o religion_n and_o duty_n to_o god_n not_o only_o that_o we_o better_o may_v but_o while_o we_o do_v express_v it_o to_o our_o king_n to_o become_v good_a man_n as_o

that_o whine_a whimper_a noisy_a scrupulous_a formal_a religion_n that_o be_v nothing_o but_o the_o shame_n and_o hypocrisy_n of_o it_o and_o which_o i_o fear_v prejudice_v many_o against_o it_o as_o a_o ungentile_a unsociable_a thing_n unfit_a for_o court_n and_o man_n of_o address_n but_o i_o mean_v that_o true_a solid_a substantial_a religion_n that_o consist_v in_o a_o great_a sense_n of_o our_o god_n and_o a_o care_n to_o approve_v ourselves_o to_o he_o in_o generous_a and_o worthy_a action_n in_o justice_n and_o honesty_n and_o great_a charity_n in_o scorn_v to_o do_v a_o ill_a

of_o two_o or_o three_o thing_n and_o i_o have_v do_v i_o have_v tell_v you_o already_o that_o this_o will_v be_v the_o most_o acceptable_a expression_n of_o the_o present_a praise_n and_o i_o tell_v you_o now_o it_o be_v the_o only_a one_o a_o true_o religious_a heart_n be_v the_o only_a altar_n from_o whence_o god_n will_v accept_v any_o sacrifice_n and_o pure_a hand_n be_v only_o fit_a to_o offer_v they_o true_a piety_n be_v the_o only_a thing_n that_o clear_v the_o air_n and_o cause_v our_o incense_n to_o ascend_v and_o appear_v before_o god_n but_o vice_n raise_v storm_n and_o thick_a vapour_n which_o hinder_v its_o ascent_n and_o cause_v it_o to_o roll_v back_o upon_o our_o own_o head_n in_o pitchy_a and_o black_a smoke_n the_o sad_a indication_n that_o our_o person_n and_o our_o sacrifice_n be_v equal_o odious_a to_o he_o but_o i_o will_v have_v leave_n to_o add_v something_o more_o you_o can_v be_v ignorant_a what_o a_o character_n our_o enemy_n endeavour_n to_o fix_v upon_o we_o and_o under_o what_o disadvantage_n they_o represent_v all_o loyal_a subject_n while_o they_o glory_v in_o themselves_o as_o the_o only_a godly_a and_o sober_a part_n of_o the_o nation_n i_o thank_v god_n the_o charge_n be_v not_o so_o just_a nor_o the_o guilt_n so_o general_a as_o they_o invidious_o represent_v it_o but_o they_o that_o be_v so_o prodigal_a of_o kindness_n to_o

that_o to_o raise_v their_o own_o upon_o but_o yet_o certain_o a_o good_a use_n may_v be_v make_v of_o this_o and_o in_o this_o we_o may_v cause_v our_o false_a accuser_n to_o benefit_v we_o by_o render_v we_o more_o careful_a of_o our_o life_n and_o more_o solicitous_a to_o cause_v our_o light_n to_o shine_v before_o man_n that_o the_o world_n may_v see_v our_o good_a work_n and_o see_v also_o how_o unjust_a those_o man_n be_v that_o do_v so_o malicious_o and_o false_o accuse_v we_o and_o as_o our_o apostle_n advise_v we_o in_o the_o verse_n just_o follow_v the_o text_n by_o well-doing_n to_o put_v to_o silence_v the_o ignorance_n of_o foolish_a man_n again_o i_o beg_v you_o to_o consider_v what_o a_o religion_n you_o profess_v and_o of_o what_o a_o church_n you_o call_v yourselves_o son_n a_o church_n that_o instruct_v you_o true_o in_o your_o duty_n to_o god_n and_o caesar_n too_o and_o never_o know_v how_o to_o dispense_v with_o one_o under_o pretence_n of_o the_o other_o a_o church_n that_o teach_v subjection_n and_o loyalty_n without_o any_o reserve_n and_o a_o necessity_n of_o real_a holiness_n without_o hope_n of_o commutation_n a_o church_n that_o know_v no_o more_o how_o to_o absolve_v impiety_n against_o god_n upon_o the_o reason_n of_o loyalty_n to_o the_o king_n than_o to_o hallow_v or_o allow_v rebellion_n against_o the_o king_n for_o the_o interest_n of_o the_o church_n and_o advance_v the_o sceptre_n of_o christ_n as_o some_o have_v love_v to_o cant._n a_o church_n and_o religion_n that_o indulge_v no_o manner_n of_o vice_n that_o set_v traitor_n and_o the_o profane_a rebel_n and_o debauchee_n in_o the_o same_o rank_n and_o threaten_v the_o same_o sad_a portion_n to_o both_o final_o let_v i_o leave_v this_o one_o great_a thing_n with_o you_o that_o in_o our_o case_n of_o subjection_n both_o the_o great_a argument_n in_o the_o text_n combine_v and_o it_o be_v hard_o to_o say_v which_o be_v the_o more_o visible_a and_o

to_o do_v it_o for_o the_o king_n sake_n who_o so_o worthy_o deserve_v it_o from_o we_o shall_v i_o be_v allow_v to_o say_v one_o thing_n without_o offence_n or_o imputation_n of_o base_a flattery_n or_o design_n that_o if_o ever_o king_n may_v expect_v cheerful_a obedience_n from_o we_o for_o his_o own_o sake_n or_o challenge_v it_o for_o god_n sake_n that_o happy_a prince_n that_o govern_v we_o may_v do_v it_o just_o who_o providence_n have_v still_o attend_v and_o miracle_n of_o it_o guard_v through_o so_o many_o storm_n and_o at_o last_o land_v he_o safe_a and_o set_v he_o upon_o a_o steady_a throne_n and_o who_o be_v kind_a to_o we_o to_o the_o utmost_a of_o our_o wish_n in_o such_o a_o instance_n and_o to_o such_o a_o measure_n as_o past_a age_n have_v scarce_o see_v and_o
