the_o baptist_n bid_v the_o soldier_n in_o the_o text_n to_o be_v content_a with_o the_o word_n in_o the_o original_a be_v 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d which_o may_v indifferent_o be_v render_v a_o

afterward_o on_o the_o necessity_n of_o do_v any_o ill_a thing_n for_o their_o subsistence_n it_o seem_v the_o soldier_n in_o judea_n be_v not_o content_a with_o this_o allowance_n which_o way_n

it_o do_v not_o appear_v that_o the_o soldier_n in_o the_o text_n complain_v of_o the_o smallness_n of_o their_o pay_n but_o that_o which_o john_n the_o baptist_n charge_v they_o with_o be_v the_o

a_o good_a man_n will_v be_v content_a even_o with_o little_a because_o allow_v himself_o only_o the_o necessity_n of_o nature_n a_o very_a moderate_a stipend_n will_v suffice_v for_o these_o but_o

in_o the_o world_n that_o they_o come_v into_o therefore_o these_o word_n of_o john_n the_o baptist_n bid_v the_o soldier_n in_o the_o text_n to_o be_v content_a with_o their_o wage_n must_v be_v understand_v to_o contain_v a_o twofold_a injunction_n first_o to_o the_o officer_n to_o have_v a_o especial_a care_n to_o see_v their_o soldier_n well_o pay_v and_o not_o suffer_v they_o to_o be_v cheat_v of_o that_o which_o be_v the_o price_n of_o their_o blood_n to_o look_v that_o they_o be_v supply_v with_o what_o be_v convenient_a and_o by_o no_o mean_n to_o let_v they_o want_v soldier_n of_o all_o man_n in_o the_o world_n must_v not_o want_v brave_a man_n must_v not_o want_v it_o deject_v their_o spirit_n and_o abate_v that_o noble_a ardour_n from_o which_o spring_n all_o generous_a emotion_n and_o i_o be_o much_o deceive_v if_o any_o great_a matter_n be_v to_o be_v expect_v from_o famish_a and_o naked_a men._n this_o care_n those_o ancient_a captain_n renown_v in_o history_n have_v of_o their_o soldier_n maximin_n who_o have_v not_o disdain_v to_o inspect_v the_o the_o arm_n clothes_n and_o other_o accoutrement_n of_o the_o mean_a of_o they_o to_o inter_v into_o their_o little_a hut_n examine_v their_o diet_n see_v how_o they_o be_v accommodate_v have_v furnish_v they_o out_o of_o their_o own_o store_n nay_o have_v tear_v their_o very_a linen_n and_o clothes_n trajani_n to_o bind_v up_o their_o wound_n and_o this_o it_o be_v that_o reconcile_v they_o to_o their_o love_n more_o effectual_o than_o the_o new_a method_n that_o obtain_v now_o which_o be_v first_o to_o prey_n upon_o they_o and_o then_o in_o recompense_n let_v they_o prey_n upon_o other_o without_o fear_n of_o punishment_n not_o only_o to_o see_v that_o they_o receive_v their_o pay_n regular_o but_o to_o dispense_v it_o they_o with_o prudence_n and_o by_o such_o proportion_n as_o not_o to_o leave_v it_o in_o their_o power_n to_o want_v at_o any_o time_n by_o ill_a management_n when_o that_o be_v do_v than_o not_o to_o permit_v they_o to_o ruin_v the_o country_n where_o they_o be_v in_o garrison_n by_o plunder_n and_o free_a quarter_n not_o to_o wink_v at_o their_o invasion_n of_o any_o man_n property_n but_o to_o oblige_v they_o to_o live_v on_o their_o pay_n and_o not_o on_o the_o blood_n and_o tear_n and_o oppression_n of_o the_o people_n vivat_fw-la second_o to_o the_o soldier_n to_o study_v to_o lead_v virtuous_a and_o sober_a life_n which_o they_o will_v find_v to_o be_v a_o excellent_a way_n to_o live_v cheap_a sobriety_n be_v a_o frugal_a and_o parsimonious_a virtue_n whereas_o if_o they_o give_v themselves_o up_o to_o that_o beastly_a vice_n of_o drunkenness_n the_o common_a bane_n of_o man_n of_o their_o profession_n it_o will_v bring_v on_o they_o this_o inconvenience_n among_o many_o other_o that_o to_o have_v one_o good_a or_o merry_a day_n as_o they_o call_v it_o in_o the_o week_n it_o will_v force_v they_o to_o starve_v or_o steal_v all_o the_o rest_n but_o they_o be_v not_o to_o imagine_v that_o theft_n be_v a_o less_o sin_n in_o they_o than_o in_o other_o men._n there_o be_v not_o a_o particular_a religion_n for_o soldier_n but_o the_o same_o common_a law_n of_o god_n forbid_v wrong_a and_o injustice_n concern_v they_o equal_o with_o all_o men._n therefore_o they_o be_v to_o be_v content_a with_o their_o wage_n all_o this_o and_o much_o more_o be_v imply_v in_o these_o word_n and_o the_o soldier_n likewise_o demand_v of_o he_o say_v and_o what_o shall_v we_o do_v and_o he_o say_v unto_o they_o do_v violence_n to_o no_o man_n neither_o accuse_v any_o false_o but_o be_v content_a with_o your_o wage_n i_o come_v now_o to_o the_o application_n gentleman_n i_o shall_v make_v no_o apology_n for_o this_o discourse_n for_o though_o i_o be_o sensible_a that_o it_o be_v not_o from_o the_o pulpit_n that_o you_o be_v to_o learn_v what_o relate_v mere_o to_o military_a order_n and_o discipline_n yet_o as_o you_o be_v christian_a soldier_n as_o your_o profession_n be_v allow_v in_o the_o gospel_n as_o there_o be_v peculiar_a rule_n for_o it_o in_o the_o book_n of_o god_n you_o fall_v under_o our_o cognizance_n and_o since_o john_n the_o baptist_n the_o first_o evangelical_n preacher_n have_v not_o doubt_v to_o admonish_v a_o garrison_n it_o be_v evident_a any_o minister_n of_o the_o

a_o brave_a nation_n to_o compare_v you_o to_o than_o the_o roman_n for_o whatever_o difference_n there_o may_v be_v in_o extent_n of_o dominion_n i_o be_o sure_a that_o as_o to_o true_a courage_n
