wherein_o i_o shall_v show_v 1._o that_o the_o defection_n of_o nature_n be_v so_o universal_a that_o even_o king_n can_v plead_v no_o immunity_n from_o it_o no_o privilege_n against_o it_o 2._o that_o althô_o the_o depravity_n of_o nature_n be_v general_a yet_o it_o be_v the_o sacred_a privilege_n of_o king_n only_o for_o their_o offence_n to_o be_v exempt_v from_o all_o humane_a jurisdiction_n 3._o that_o such_o be_v the_o impetuosity_n of_o the_o vulgar_a that_o notwithstanding_o this_o sacred_a reserve_n majesty_n itself_o can_v scarce_o any_o where_o be_v inviolable_a 4._o that_o since_o the_o person_n and_o power_n of_o king_n be_v esteem_v sacred_a both_o by_o the_o law_n of_o god_n nature_n and_o all_o nation_n i_o shall_v exhort_v all_o man_n that_o they_o be_v to_o the_o utmost_a of_o their_o power_n careful_a not_o to_o violate_v so_o great_a a_o privilege_n 1._o that_o the_o defection_n of_o nature_n be_v so_o universal_a that_o even_o king_n can_v plead_v no_o immunity_n from_o it_o no_o privilege_n against_o it_o the_o empire_n of_o sin_n after_o the_o fall_n of_o man_n be_v so_o general_a that_o no_o man_n can_v be_v exclude_v that_o will_v not_o deny_v himself_o to_o be_v adam_n offspring_n and_o thus_o we_o have_v the_o great_a apostle_n of_o the_o gentile_n assert_v that_o in_o adam_n all_o die_v and_o holy_a david_n confess_v in_o sin_n be_v i_o conceive_v and_o in_o iniquity_n do_v my_o mother_n bring_v i_o forth_o but_o it_o be_v needlef_n to_o insist_v upon_o particular_n when_o as_o the_o wise_a man_n have_v include_v all_o in_o his_o parenthesis_n 46._o there_o be_v no_o man_n that_o sin_v not_o the_o nature_n of_o this_o proposition_n be_v such_o as_o you_o hear_v it_o be_v universal_o grant_v therefore_o need_v it_o no_o further_a proof_n neither_o will_v any_o one_o be_v so_o simple_a as_o to_o go_v about_o to_o exclude_v prince_n from_o it_o till_o that_o day_n approach_n when_o both_o they_o and_o we_o mortality_n be_v lay_v aside_o shall_v be_v equal_o exempt_v till_o then_o both_o gratitude_n and_o interest_n oblige_v we_o to_o cover_v the_o fault_n of_o our_o superior_n and_o therefore_o i_o shall_v proceed_v to_o show_v 2._o that_o althô_o the_o depravity_n of_o nature_n be_v general_a yet_o it_o be_v the_o sacred_a privilege_n of_o king_n only_o for_o their_o offence_n to_o be_v exempt_v from_o all_o humane_a jurisdiction_n in_o the_o former_a proposition_n we_o have_v see_v that_o they_o by_o who_o the_o action_n of_o man_n be_v weigh_v and_o upon_o who_o proemium_fw-la &_o poena_n the_o two_o hinge_n of_o all_o law_n do_v turn_v be_v not_o able_a so_o far_o to_o smother_v the_o embryon_n of_o original_a depravity_n but_o that_o it_o will_v in_o spite_n of_o the_o utmost_a care_n and_o vigilance_n burst_v from_o the_o seed_n to_o the_o fruit_n into_o actual_a impiety_n and_o transgression_n but_o yet_o
