at_o this_o time_n to_o forbear_v their_o meeting_n at_o least_o to_o be_v so_o moderate_a in_o their_o number_n that_o it_o may_v appear_v they_o do_v not_o glory_n in_o their_o multitude_n and_o by_o this_o moderation_n i_o hope_v they_o may_v induce_v other_o to_o have_v a_o better_a opinion_n of_o they_o and_o instead_o of_o take_v they_o to_o be_v man_n who_o practice_n against_o the_o

of_o the_o present_a revolution_n from_o the_o nature_n of_o government_n that_o our_o religion_n and_o civil_a right_n be_v upon_o the_o brink_n of_o destruction_n i_o believe_v none_o doubt_n or_o

it_o be_v not_o long_o since_o that_o we_o see_v a_o sort_n of_o man_n among_o we_o who_o be_v guilty_a of_o as_o much_o folly_n as_o solomon_n foolish_a woman_n that_o pull_v down_o her_o house_n

the_o rectify_v of_o their_o judgement_n and_o confirm_v of_o you_o i_o will_v with_o your_o leave_n give_v my_o thought_n in_o this_o matter_n by_o which_o you_o will_v be_v the_o better_a able_a to_o judge_n of_o the_o unreasonableness_n of_o those_o thing_n that_o have_v be_v impose_v upon_o we_o in_o point_n of_o our_o duty_n to_o the_o government_n government_n in_o general_n and_o that_o there_o ought_v to_o be_v some_o sort_n of_o government_n i_o take_v to_o be_v not_o only_o necessary_a but_o of_o divine_a right_n but_o the_o particular_a form_n be_v a_o humane_a ordinance_n and_o the_o apostle_n be_v my_o authority_n who_o have_v in_o express_a term_n declare_v it_o to_o be_v such_o for_o all_o form_n be_v equal_a in_o themselves_o and_o that_o become_v preferable_a to_o the_o rest_n which_o best_o suit_v the_o inclination_n of_o the_o people_n in_o order_n to_o support_v the_o common_a good_a for_o have_v god_n like_v any_o model_n or_o shape_n above_o the_o rest_n all_o the_o government_n under_o the_o sun_n will_v have_v be_v of_o the_o same_o form_n for_o in_o a_o thing_n of_o that_o absolute_a necessity_n he_o will_v not_o have_v leave_v the_o world_n in_o the_o dark_a but_o either_o have_v express_o reveal_v it_o or_o discover_v it_o to_o we_o by_o the_o light_n of_o nature_n but_o we_o do_v find_v in_o holy_a writ_n any_o such_o intimation_n of_o his_o pleasure_n nor_o have_v nature_n yet_o enable_v we_o to_o find_v it_o out_o for_o there_o never_o be_v nor_o be_v not_o be_v at_o this_o day_n any_o two_o government_n of_o the_o same_o shape_n but_o differ_v in_o some_o thing_n that_o be_v very_o material_a and_o essential_a and_o if_o god_n have_v think_v any_o one_o form_n of_o government_n to_o be_v better_a than_o the_o rest_n he_o will_v not_o have_v permit_v that_o of_o the_o israelite_n his_o peculiar_a people_n to_o have_v be_v alter_v but_o we_o find_v that_o the_o model_n and_o form_n of_o their_o constitution_n be_v alter_v and_o change_v no_o less_o than_o five_o time_n so_o that_o it_o be_v plain_a that_o god_n almighty_n leave_v every_o people_n the_o jew_n except_v to_o frame_v such_o a_o constitution_n as_o well_o as_o to_o the_o measure_n of_o power_n of_o those_o with_o who_o they_o entrust_v the_o administration_n as_o of_o the_o obedience_n of_o the_o subject_n whereby_o the_o public_a peace_n may_v be_v best_o preserve_v and_o that_o the_o reasonable_a and_o just_a extent_n of_o the_o prerogative_n can_v be_v suppose_v to_o go_v further_o than_o what_o man_n in_o their_o wit_n and_o without_o constraint_n will_v judge_v be_v necessary_a to_o relieve_v the_o subject_n against_o the_o extremity_n of_o the_o law_n in_o such_o case_n as_o can_v not_o be_v foresee_v at_o the_o time_n the_o government_n be_v agree_v on_o and_o because_o in_o the_o two_o late_a king_n reign_v the_o prerogative_n be_v advance_v to_o a_o unreasonable_a height_n the_o better_a to_o accomplish_v the_o work_n of_o popery_n and_o slavery_n i_o think_v i_o shall_v not_o misspend_v your_o time_n if_o i_o offer_v a_o few_o word_n further_o upon_o this_o point_n there_o be_v not_o any_o thing_n in_o our_o law-book_n to_o justify_v the_o stretch_n of_o the_o prerogative_n so_o far_o but_o it_o be_v pretend_v that_o authority_n be_v find_v for_o it_o in_o scripture_n and_o if_o so_o the_o word_n of_o god_n will_v justify_v that_o oppression_n and_o violence_n that_o our_o know_a law_n will_v not_o countenance_n and_o than_o it_o will_v follow_v that_o the_o law_n of_o god_n be_v not_o so_o just_a and_o equal_a as_o the_o statute_n and_o ordinance_n of_o man_n and_o without_o question_n it_o must_v be_v very_o extraordinary_a that_o the_o bible_n shall_v tell_v we_o any_o thing_n of_o our_o government_n that_o be_v not_o to_o be_v find_v in_o our_o statute_n or_o law_n book_n i_o be_o persuade_v that_o the_o holy_a scripture_n be_v never_o more_o wrest_v to_o serve_v a_o turn_n than_o of_o late_o it_o have_v be_v to_o maintain_v the_o divine_a right_n and_o absolute_a power_n of_o king_n for_o which_o these_o text_n be_v chief_o insist_v on_o by_o i_o king_n reign_v where_o the_o word_n of_o a_o king_n be_v there_o be_v power_n and_o who_o may_v say_v unto_o he_o what_o do_v thou_o let_v every_o soul_n be_v subject_a unto_o the_o high_a power_n for_o there_o be_v no_o power_n

to_o themselves_o damnation_n wherefore_o you_o must_v needs_o be_v subject_a not_o only_o for_o wrath_n but_o also_o for_o conscience_n sake_n these_o and_o such_o like_a text_n of_o scripture_n be_v to_o be_v take_v in_o a_o limit_a sense_n or_o else_o these_o two_o absurdity_n will_v follow_v first_o that_o god_n almighty_n make_v the_o world_n for_o the_o satisfaction_n of_o the_o lust_n and_o
