Preached almost a yeer since, and now copied out for the presse; yet not to flatter any, but to inform all. : To the powers I say as Jehosaphat did, 2 Chron. 9.6 ... : To others I say in the words of the apostle, I Pet. 2.13 ... / By Tho.

all_o power_n be_v not_o ordain_v by_o he_o answ_n that_o be_v speak_v of_o jeroboam_fw-la and_o those_o that_o follow_v he_o in_o the_o kingdom_n of_o israel_n they_o obtain_v not_o the_o kingdom_n by_o virtue_n of_o the_o promise_n make_v to_o david_n but_o either_o by_o defection_n of_o the_o people_n or_o by_o usurpation_n they_o intrude_v themselves_o therefore_o for_o that_o cause_n the_o

first_o the_o office_n itself_o with_o the_o institution_n of_o it_o this_o be_v of_o god_n god_n will_n be_v that_o there_o shall_v be_v authority_n in_o some_o or_o other_o that_o justice_n may_v
