the_o person_n that_o be_v now_o murder_v be_v not_o the_o lord_n of_o glory_n but_o a_o glorious_a lord_n christ_n own_o vicar_n his_o lieutenant_n and_o vicegerent_n here_o on_o earth_n within_o his_o dominion_n and_o therefore_o by_o all_o law_n divine_a and_o humane_a he_o be_v privilege_v from_o any_o punishment_n that_o can_v be_v inflict_v by_o man_n albeit_o he_o be_v as_o inferior_a

be_v not_o a_o temporal_a prince_n his_o kingdom_n be_v not_o of_o this_o world_n and_o therefore_o when_o he_o vouchsafe_v to_o come_v into_o the_o world_n and_o to_o become_v the_o son_n of_o man_n he_o do_v subject_v himself_o unto_o the_o law_n he_o who_o only_o can_v choose_v when_o to_o be_v bear_v make_v choice_n to_o be_v bear_v at_o that_o time_n when_o there_o be_v a_o decree_n for_o

the_o law_n of_o nature_n and_o nation_n and_o the_o chief_a priest_n as_o impudent_a and_o malicious_a as_o they_o be_v they_o do_v not_o deny_v the_o proposition_n that_o a_o king_n be_v not_o to_o

so_o lively_a a_o image_n of_o he_o that_o among_o all_o the_o martyr_n who_o follow_v christ_n unto_o heaven_n bear_v his_o cross_n never_o be_v there_o any_o who_o express_v so_o great_a

the_o apostle_n join_v they_o together_o 12.2_o heb._n 12.2_o jesus_n endure_v the_o cross_n despise_v the_o shame_n our_o sovereign_n suffer_v both_o i_o begin_v with_o the_o pain_n indeed_o christ_n
