sufficient_o secure_v government_n in_o as_o much_o as_o that_o stand_v or_o fall_v according_a to_o the_o behaviour_n of_o the_o multitude_n and_o whatsoever_o conscience_n make_v the_o generality_n obey_v to_o that_o prudence_n will_v make_v the_o rest_n conform_v wherefore_o have_v prove_v the_o dependence_n of_o government_n upon_o religion_n i_o shall_v now_o demonstrate_v that_o the_o safety_n of_o government_n depend_v upon_o the_o truth_n of_o religion_n false_a religion_n be_v in_o its_o nature_n the_o great_a bane_n and_o destruction_n to_o religion_n in_o the_o world_n the_o reason_n be_v because_o whatsoever_o be_v false_a be_v also_o weak_a ens_fw-la and_o verum_fw-la in_o philosophy_n be_v the_o same_o and_o so_o much_o as_o any_o religion_n have_v of_o falsity_n it_o lose_v of_o strength_n and_o existence_n falsity_n it_o gain_v authority_n only_o from_o ignorance_n and_o therefore_o be_v in_o danger_n to_o be_v know_v for_o from_o be_v false_a the_o next_o immediate_a step_n be_v to_o be_v know_v to_o be_v such_o and_o what_o prejudice_n this_o will_v be_v to_o the_o civil_a government_n be_v apparent_a if_o man_n shall_v be_v awe_v into_o obedience_n and_o affright_v from_o sin_n by_o reward_n and_o punishment_n propose_v to_o they_o in_o such_o a_o religion_n which_o afterward_o shall_v be_v detect_v and_o find_v a_o mere_a falsity_n and_o cheat_v for_o if_o one_o part_n be_v but_o find_v to_o be_v false_a it_o will_v make_v the_o whole_a suspicious_a and_o man_n will_v then_o not_o only_o cast_v off_o obedience_n to_o the_o civil_a magistrate_n but_o they_o will_v do_v it_o with_o disdain_n and_o rage_n that_o they_o have_v be_v deceive_v so_o long_o and_o bring_v to_o do_v that_o out_o of_o conscience_n which_o be_v impose_v upon_o they_o out_o of_o design_n for_o though_o man_n be_v often_o willing_o deceive_v yet_o still_o it_o must_v be_v under_o a_o opinion_n of_o be_v instruct_v though_o they_o love_v the_o deception_n yet_o they_o mortal_o hate_v it_o under_o that_o appearance_n therefore_o it_o be_v no_o way_n safe_a for_o a_o magistrate_n who_o be_v to_o build_v his_o dominion_n upon_o the_o fear_n of_o man_n to_o build_v those_o fear_n upon_o a_o false_a religion_n it_o be_v not_o to_o be_v doubt_v but_o the_o absurdity_n of_o jeroboam_n calf_n make_v many_o israelite_n turn_v subject_n to_o rehoboam_n government_n that_o they_o may_v be_v proselyte_n to_o his_o religion_n herein_o the_o weakness_n of_o the_o turkish_a religion_n appear_v that_o it_o urge_v obedience_n upon_o the_o promise_n of_o such_o absurd_a reward_n as_o that_o after_o death_n they_o shall_v have_v palace_n garden_n beautiful_a woman_n with_o all_o the_o luxury_n that_o can_v be_v as_o if_o those_o thing_n that_o be_v the_o occasion_n and_o incentives_n of_o sin_n in_o this_o world_n can_v be_v the_o reward_n of_o holiness_n in_o the_o other_o peside_v many_o other_o invention_n false_a and_o absurd_a that_o be_v like_o so_o many_o chink_n and_o hole_n to_o discover_v the_o rottenness_n of_o the_o whole_a fabric_n when_o god_n shall_v be_v please_v to_o give_v light_a to_o discover_v and_o open_v their_o reason_n to_o discern_v they_o but_o you_o will_v say_v what_o government_n more_o sure_a and_o absolute_a than_o the_o turkish_a and_o yet_o what_o religion_n more_o false_a therefore_o certain_o government_n may_v stand_v sure_a and_o strong_a be_v the_o religion_n profess_v never_o so_o absurd_a i_o answer_v that_o it_o may_v do_v so_o indeed_o by_o accident_n through_o the_o strange_a peculiar_a temper_n and_o gross_a ignorance_n of_o a_o people_n as_o we_o see_v it_o happen_v in_o the_o turk_n the_o best_a part_n of_o who_o policy_n suppose_v the_o absurdity_n of_o their_o religion_n be_v this_o that_o they_o prohibit_v school_n of_o learning_n for_o this_o hinder_v knowledge_n and_o dispute_n which_o such_o a_o religion_n will_v not_o bear_v but_o suppose_v we_o that_o the_o learning_n of_o these_o western_a nation_n be_v as_o great_a there_o as_o here_o and_o the_o alcoran_n as_o common_a to_o they_o as_o the_o bible_n to_o we_o that_o they_o may_v have_v free_a recourse_n to_o search_v and_o examine_v the_o flaw_n and_o folly_n of_o it_o and_o withal_o that_o they_o be_v of_o as_o inquisitive_a a_o temper_n as_o we_o and_o who_o know_v but_o as_o there_o be_v vicissitude_n in_o the_o government_n so_o there_o may_v happen_v the_o same_o also_o in_o the_o temper_n of_o a_o nation_n if_o this_o shall_v come_v to_o pass_v where_o will_v be_v their_o religion_n and_o then_o let_v every_o one_o judge_n whether_o the_o arcana_fw-la imperii_fw-la and_o religionis_fw-la will_v not_o fall_v together_o they_o have_v begin_v to_o totter_v already_o for_o mahomet_n have_v promise_v to_o come_v and_o visit_v his_o follower_n and_o translate_v they_o to_o paradise_n after_o a_o thousand_o year_n this_o be_v expire_v many_o of_o the_o persian_n begin_v to_o doubt_v and_o smell_v the_o cheat_n till_o the_o mufti_n or_o chief_n priest_n tell_v they_o that_o it_o be_v a_o mistake_n in_o the_o figure_n and_o assure_v they_o that_o upon_o more_o diligent_a survey_n of_o the_o record_n he_o find_v it_o two_o thousand_o instead_o of_o one_o when_o this_o be_v expire_v perhaps_o they_o will_v not_o be_v able_a to_o renew_v the_o fallacy_n i_o say_v therefore_o that_o though_o this_o government_n continue_v firm_a in_o the_o exercise_n of_o a_o false_a religion_n yet_o this_o be_v by_o accident_n through_o the_o present_a genius_n of_o the_o people_n which_o may_v change_v but_o this_o do_v not_o prove_v but_o that_o the_o nature_n of_o such_o a_o religion_n of_o which_o we_o only_o now_o speak_v tend_v to_o subvert_v and_o betray_v the_o civil_a power_n hence_o machiavelli_n himself_o in_o his_o animadversion_n upon_o livy_n make_v it_o appear_v that_o the_o weakness_n of_o italy_n which_o be_v once_o so_o strong_a be_v cause_v by_o the_o corrupt_a practice_n of_o the_o papacy_n in_o deprave_v and_o misuse_v religion_n to_o that_o purpose_n which_o he_o though_o himself_o a_o papist_n say_v can_v not_o have_v happen_v have_v the_o christian_a religion_n be_v keep_v in_o its_o first_o and_o native_a simplicity_n thus_o much_o may_v suffice_v for_o the_o clear_n of_o the_o first_o proposition_n the_o
