❧_o by_o the_o king_n this_o late_a age_n and_o time_n of_o the_o world_n wherein_o we_o be_v fall_v be_v so_o much_o give_v to_o verbal_a profession_n aswell_o of_o religion_n as_o of_o all_o commendable_a moral_a virtue_n but_o want_v the_o action_n and_o deed_n agreeable_a to_o so_o specious_a a_o profession_n as_o it_o have_v breed_v such_o a_o unsatiable_a curiosity_n in_o many_o man_n spirit_n and_o such_o a_o itch_a in_o the_o tongue_n and_o pen_n of_o most_o man_n as_o nothing_o be_v leave_v unsearched_a to_o the_o bottom_n both_o in_o talk_v and_o write_v for_o from_o the_o very_o high_a mystery_n in_o the_o godhead_n and_o the_o most_o inscrutable_a counsel_n in_o the_o trinity_n to_o the_o very_o low_a pit_n of_o hell_n and_o the_o confuse_a action_n of_o the_o devil_n there_o there_o be_v nothing_o now_o unsearched_a into_o by_o the_o curiosity_n of_o man_n brain_n man_n not_o be_v content_v with_o the_o knowledge_n of_o so_o much_o of_o the_o will_n of_o god_n as_o it_o have_v please_v he_o to_o reveal_v but_o they_o will_v needs_o sit_v with_o he_o in_o his_o most_o privy_a closet_n and_o become_v privy_a of_o his_o most_o inscrutable_a counsel_n and_o therefore_o it_o be_v no_o wonder_n that_o man_n in_o these_o our_o day_n do_v not_o spare_v to_o wade_v in_o all_o the_o deep_a mystery_n that_o belong_v to_o the_o person_n or_o state_n of_o king_n or_o prince_n that_o be_v god_n upon_o earth_n since_o we_o see_v as_o we_o have_v already_o say_v that_o they_o spare_v not_o god_n himself_o and_o this_o licence_n that_o every_o talker_n or_o writer_n now_o assume_v to_o himself_o be_v come_v to_o this_o abuse_n that_o many_o phormio_n will_v give_v council_n to_o hannibal_n and_o many_o man_n that_o never_o go_v out_o of_o the_o compass_n of_o cloister_n or_o college_n will_v free_o wade_v by_o their_o writing_n in_o the_o deep_a mystery_n of_o monarchy_n and_o politic_a government_n whereupon_o it_o can_v otherwise_o fall_v out_o but_o that_o when_o man_n go_v out_o of_o their_o element_n and_o meddle_v with_o thing_n above_o their_o capacity_n themselves_o shall_v not_o only_o go_v astray_o and_o stumble_v in_o darkness_n but_o will_v mislead_v also_o diverse_a other_o with_o themselves_o into_o many_o mistake_n and_o error_n the_o proof_n whereof_o we_o have_v late_o have_v by_o a_o book_n write_v by_o doctor_n cowell_n call_v the_o interpreter_n for_o he_o be_v only_o a_o civilian_n by_o profession_n and_o upon_o that_o large_a ground_n of_o a_o kind_n of_o dictionary_n as_o it_o be_v follow_v the_o alphabet_n have_v all_o kind_n of_o purpose_n belong_v to_o government_n and_o monarchy_n in_o his_o way_n by_o meddle_v in_o matter_n above_o his_o reach_n he_o have_v fall_v in_o many_o thing_n to_o mistake_v and_o deceive_v himself_o in_o some_o thing_n dispute_v so_o nice_o upon_o the_o mystery_n of_o this_o our_o monarchy_n that_o it_o may_v receive_v doubtful_a interpretation_n yea_o in_o some_o point_n very_a derogatory_n to_o the_o supreme_a power_n of_o this_o crown_n in_o other_o case_n mistake_v the_o true_a state_n of_o the_o parliament_n of_o this_o kingdom_n and_o the_o fundamental_a constitution_n and_o privilege_n thereof_o and_o in_o some_o other_o point_n speak_v unreverent_o of_o the_o common_a law_n of_o england_n and_o of_o the_o work_n of_o some_o of_o the_o most_o famous_a and_o ancient_a judge_n therein_o it_o be_v a_o thing_n utter_o unlawful_a to_o any_o subject_n to_o speak_v or_o write_v against_o that_o law_n under_o which_o he_o live_v and_o
