the_o sign_n and_o token_n of_o reverence_n be_v a_o natural_a due_n to_o old_a man_n it_o be_v a_o woeful_a degeneracy_n which_o the_o prophet_n isaiah_n point_v at_o when_o he_o say_v the_o child_n shall_v behave_v himself_o proud_o against_o the_o ancient_a 3.5_o isa_n 3.5_o and_o the_o base_a against_o the_o honourable_a a_o degeneracy_n it_o be_v happy_a the_o world_n have_v never_o be_v acquaint_v with_o there_o be_v no_o age_a person_n but_o think_v he_o deserve_v some_o reverence_n from_o the_o young_a we_o ourselves_o when_o we_o come_v to_o be_v old_a shall_v expect_v as_o much_o and_o therefore_o most_o shameful_a it_o be_v we_o shall_v need_v to_o learn_v this_o piece_n of_o good_a manner_n but_o most_o of_o all_o abominable_a that_o any_o shall_v despise_v and_o mock_v at_o the_o ordinary_a infirmity_n which_o attend_v upon_o age_n especial_o in_o their_o own_o parent_n it_o be_v extreme_o unworthy_a when_o they_o will_v not_o give_v the_o ancient_a leave_n to_o speak_v or_o sport_n at_o their_o useful_a admonition_n till_o they_o come_v by_o year_n to_o see_v their_o own_o folly_n but_o more_o odious_a still_o when_o they_o revile_v they_o for_o the_o weakness_n incident_a to_o their_o age_n and_o most_o inhuman_a and_o barbarous_a when_o they_o will_v not_o bear_v and_o relieve_v as_o they_o be_v able_a the_o infirmity_n of_o those_o age_a parent_n who_o bring_v they_o into_o the_o world_n pity_v and_o provide_v for_o they_o when_o they_o be_v weak_a and_o unable_a to_o provide_v for_o themselves_o and_o give_v it_o may_v be_v that_o staff_n out_o of_o their_o hand_n whereby_o they_o be_v at_o last_o in_o the_o decay_n of_o their_o age_n beat_v themselves_o whoever_o they_o be_v that_o deal_n thus_o with_o the_o ancient_n may_v look_v themselves_o hereafter_o to_o be_v so_o deal_v with_o by_o youth_n of_o a_o insolent_a and_o rude_a behaviour_n and_o then_o they_o will_v remember_v sad_o this_o wickedness_n of_o their_o youth_n this_o sin_n of_o their_o youth_n will_v take_v hold_n of_o they_o harken_v to_o thy_o father_n that_o beget_v thou_o 23.22_o prov._n 23.22_o say_v solomon_n and_o despise_v not_o thy_o mother_n when_o she_o be_v old_a this_o we_o shall_v learn_v of_o ourselves_o if_o we_o consider_v what_o we_o ourselves_o after_o so_o long_a a_o life_n in_o the_o world_n shall_v expect_v from_o youth_n our_o own_o child_n more_o especial_o but_o whilst_o i_o speak_v of_o this_o what_o must_v we_o conclude_v of_o such_o novellist_n both_o in_o church_n and_o state_n who_o despise_v and_o disparage_v oppose_v and_o rise_v up_o against_o whatever_o constitution_n the_o wisdom_n of_o the_o ancient_n have_v make_v for_o decency_n and_o order_n peace_n and_o devotion_n the_o promotion_n of_o piety_n and_o the_o security_n of_o the_o common_a welfare_n and_o happiness_n this_o be_v pride_n notorious_a and_o beyond_o all_o appology_n i_o may_v proceed_v far_a to_o urge_v the_o respect_n of_o reverence_n which_o we_o owe_v to_o any_o other_o that_o be_v above_o we_o in_o the_o gift_n of_o mind_n or_o the_o outward_a good_a thing_n and_o riches_n of_o the_o world_n but_o it_o shall_v suffice_v to_o have_v instance_a thus_o far_o by_o way_n of_o declaration_n of_o the_o five_o particular_a sect_n xi_o six_o the_o same_o rule_n oblige_v we_o to_o all_o the_o positive_a act_n of_o justice_n towards_o other_o since_o we_o desire_v and_o expect_v that_o other_o shall_v be_v so_o just_a to_o we_o the_o negative_a part_n of_o justice_n i._n e._n to_o do_v no_o wrong_a or_o injury_n unto_o any_o have_v be_v already_o speak_v to_o under_o the_o notion_n of_o innocency_n the_o positive_a act_n of_o it_o come_v here_o to_o be_v consider_v of_o whereby_o we_o do_v suum_fw-la cuique_fw-la tribuere_fw-la render_v unto_o other_o that_o which_o be_v right_a and_o due_a according_a to_o that_o of_o the_o apostle_n 8._o rom._n 13.7_o 8._o render_v unto_o all_o their_o due_n tribute_n to_o who_o tribute_n be_v due_a custom_n to_o who_o custom_n fear_v to_o who_o fear_n honour_n to_o who_o honour_n owe_v no_o man_n any_o thing_n but_o to_o love_v one_o another_o i_o will_v instance_n first_o in_o the_o distributive_a part_n of_o justice_n that_o which_o concern_v chief_o such_o as_o be_v in_o authority_n and_o eminency_n over_o other_o in_o the_o distribution_n of_o reward_n and_o punishment_n where_o they_o be_v needful_a 1._o this_o rule_n will_v train_v they_o up_o to_o the_o reward_v part_n of_o justice_n it_o be_v the_o great_a defect_n in_o distributive_a justice_n 399._o charron_n of_o wisdom_n p._n 399._o as_o it_o be_v common_o practise_v in_o the_o world_n that_o it_o punish_v only_o and_o reward_v not_o it_o be_v lame_a of_o this_o right_a hand_n and_o incline_v only_o to_o punishment_n the_o great_a favour_n man_n usual_o receive_v from_o it_o be_v indemnity_n a_o pay_n too_o short_a for_o they_o that_o deserve_v well_o but_o this_o be_v that_o which_o every_o one_o natural_o desire_v and_o expect_v that_o his_o good_a work_n towards_o the_o public_a his_o usefulness_n and_o subserviency_n to_o the_o common_a good_a be_v answerable_o acknowledge_v and_o reward_v gratitude_n be_v a_o undoubted_a branch_n of_o justice_n and_o seneca_n seneca_n seneca_n brand_v the_o contrary_a vice_n for_o intolerable_a and_o unsociable_a grave_a vitium_fw-la intolerabile_fw-la quod_fw-la dissociat_fw-la homines_fw-la now_o man_n in_o place_n and_o authority_n be_v the_o dispenser_n of_o the_o public_a thanks_o and_o gratitude_n for_o good_a office_n and_o desert_n and_o therefore_o stand_v oblige_v according_o to_o distribute_v honour_n and_o reward_n for_o the_o encouragement_n of_o well-doer_n there_o be_v none_o that_o deserve_v well_o but_z though_o he_o act_v not_o purposely_o and_o only_o for_o reward_n and_o can_v be_v content_a to_o do_v well_o though_o he_o miss_v of_o it_o yet_o he_o reasonable_o hope_n and_o expect_v some_o grateful_a return_n proportionable_a to_o the_o degree_n of_o his_o merit_n 2._o this_o rule_n lead_v also_o to_o the_o punish_a part_n of_o justice_n when_o there_o be_v need_n for_o it_o at_o the_o first_o view_n indeed_o it_o may_v seem_v otherwise_o for_o what_o malefactor_n be_v there_o who_o desire_v to_o be_v punish_v who_o will_v be_v punish_v if_o he_o can_v help_v it_o and_o therefore_o one_o will_v think_v if_o the_o judge_n deal_v by_o he_o as_o he_o will_v be_v do_v by_o himself_o in_o his_o case_n he_o shall_v spare_v and_o acquit_v he_o in_o stead_n of_o condemn_v and_o punish_v of_o he_o but_o here_o we_o must_v call_v to_o mind_n what_o be_v premise_v in_o the_o explication_n of_o our_o rule_n to_o wit_n that_o we_o be_v to_o understand_v it_o of_o no_o other_o will_n but_o that_o which_o be_v regular_a and_o well-ordered_a and_o comply_v with_o the_o dictate_v of_o religious_a and_o sober_a reason_n now_o if_o the_o desire_n and_o expectation_n of_o the_o malefactor_n be_v such_o he_o can_v not_o but_o will_v the_o correction_n and_o punishment_n which_o be_v for_o his_o own_o amendment_n or_o for_o the_o public_a good_a the_o warning_n and_o safety_n of_o other_o punitive_a justice_n be_v real_o a_o branch_n of_o goodness_n aim_v at_o the_o offender_n reformation_n where_o the_o case_n will_v allow_v it_o and_o the_o common_a good_a to_o caution_n and_o terrify_v other_o from_o imitate_v so_o bad_a a_o example_n lest_o they_o share_v in_o the_o like_a shame_n and_o punishment_n it_o may_v be_v so_o i_o confess_v that_o the_o common_a good_a may_v prove_v inconsistent_a with_o the_o private_a and_o particular_a good_a of_o the_o offender_n a_o murderer_n or_o traitor_n for_o instance_n that_o have_v forfeit_v his_o life_n to_o justice_n the_o common_a good_a require_v that_o justice_n smite_v he_o with_o her_o sword_n his_o particular_a good_a that_o he_o have_v a_o long_a time_n of_o repentance_n vouchsafe_v he_o and_o be_v the_o judge_n in_o his_o case_n he_o will_v no_o question_n wish_v the_o late_a for_o himself_o what_o therefore_o must_v he_o do_v here_o i_o answer_v what_o he_o can_v to_o promote_v the_o real_a good_a and_o repentance_n of_o the_o offender_n but_o yet_o the_o common_a good_a be_v far_o more_o valuable_a and_o desirable_a than_o any_o private_a and_o particular_a interest_n and_o public_a person_n man_n in_o authority_n be_v to_o look_v on_o themselves_o as_o representative_n of_o the_o society_n who_o good_a they_o be_v to_o serve_v and_o must_v consequent_o do_v for_o it_o whatsoever_o they_o shall_v reasonable_o expect_v to_o be_v do_v for_o their_o own_o security_n now_o it_o be_v unquestionable_o for_o the_o good_a and_o benefit_n of_o the_o whole_a community_n that_o insolent_a stubborn_a and_o notorious_a offender_n be_v put_v to_o open_a shame_n and_o punishment_n a_o private_a and_o personal_a pity_n in_o this_o case_n be_v the_o public_a wrong_n and_o
