the_o dismal_a and_o deplorable_a effect_n that_o will_v have_v follow_v have_v it_o succeed_v and_o the_o immediate_a and_o even_o visible_a interposition_n of_o providence_n in_o the_o defeat_n of_o

something_o above_o these_o thing_n and_o know_v that_o your_o own_o thought_n have_v anticipate_v the_o most_o of_o what_o i_o can_v say_v upon_o they_o and_o have_v therefore_o design_v to_o treat_v

this_o place_n nor_o be_o so_o impertinent_a as_o to_o think_v there_o be_v need_n of_o do_v so_o but_o i_o hope_v i_o may_v be_v allow_v to_o preach_v up_o religion_n and_o recommend_v the_o

this_o that_o we_o ever_o hear_v of_o rebellion_n or_o be_v disturb_v with_o the_o unwelcome_a interruption_n of_o it_o and_o it_o be_v by_o a_o due_a practice_n of_o it_o that_o we_o shall_v be_v

will_v hear_v i_o with_o your_o wont_a clemency_n and_o candour_n a_o few_o word_n the_o argument_n that_o i_o purpose_n to_o discourse_v from_o these_o word_n be_v to_o state_n the_o true_a ground_n of_o christian_a loyalty_n and_o subjection_n which_o be_v say_v here_o to_o be_v religion_n and_o conscience_n submit_v yourselves_o to_o every_o ordinance_n of_o man_n 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d for_o the_o lord_n sake_n that_o be_v out_o of_o immediate_a duty_n to_o he_o and_o conscience_n and_o respect_n to_o his_o command_n whatever_o else_o there_o be_v observable_a in_o the_o text_n will_v fall_v in_o upon_o our_o consider_v this_o main_a purport_n and_o design_n of_o it_o in_o the_o prosecution_n of_o this_o argument_n i_o shall_v endeavour_v to_o do_v these_o three_o thing_n 1._o i_o shall_v brief_o make_v good_a the_o ground_n of_o the_o argument_n and_o show_v that_o religion_n and_o conscience_n do_v real_o oblige_v to_o this_o subjection_n 2._o i_o shall_v remark_n some_o of_o the_o advantage_n of_o be_v subject_a upon_o this_o reason_n 3._o make_v some_o short_a deduction_n from_o this_o for_o our_o own_o benefit_n and_o improvement_n only_o if_o it_o may_v not_o entrench_v too_o much_o upon_o my_o time_n and_o your_o patience_n i_o will_v crave_v leave_n in_o order_n to_o my_o argument_n to_o state_n the_o notion_n of_o christian_a subjection_n as_o it_o be_v describe_v here_o by_o st._n peter_n and_o this_o the_o rather_o because_o it_o will_v give_v i_o a_o fair_a occasion_n of_o reflect_v upon_o two_o thing_n under_o which_o the_o man_n of_o republican_n and_o turbulent_a spirit_n seek_v to_o shelter_v themselves_o 1._o then_o i_o observe_v that_o when_o our_o apostle_n speak_v of_o subjection_n here_o he_o intend_v it_o equal_o to_o the_o person_n and_o law_n of_o king_n and_o governor_n and_o make_v no_o distinction_n at_o all_o between_o they_o in_o these_o word_n he_o seem_v to_o mean_v their_o law_n and_o in_o the_o word_n immediate_o follow_v he_o express_v their_o person_n to_o the_o king_n and_o to_o those_o that_o be_v send_v by_o he_o i_o know_v no_o reason_n to_o oppose_v one_o of_o these_o against_o the_o other_o or_o to_o distinguish_v between_o submit_v to_o they_o subjection_n to_o the_o one_o imply_v subjection_n to_o the_o other_o in_o the_o sober_a sense_n of_o all_o the_o world_n and_o every_o honest_a heart_n will_v take_v it_o to_o hold_v true_a both_o way_n he_o that_o submit_v to_o the_o king_n will_v submit_v to_o his_o law_n and_o he_o that_o submit_v to_o his_o law_n can_v resist_v or_o offer_v violence_n to_o his_o person_n and_o yet_o we_o have_v have_v and_o i_o wish_v only_o have_v have_v such_o nimble_a sophister_n as_o can_v put_v a_o difference_n between_o these_o both_o way_n some_o that_o can_v talk_v high_a of_o allegiance_n of_o deference_n and_o a_o mighty_a respect_n to_o the_o king_n of_o be_v as_o good_a subject_n as_o any_o but_o yet_o make_v bold_a to_o desecrate_v his_o law_n and_o despise_v his_o authority_n when_o their_o interest_n or_o humour_n be_v cross_v as_o if_o honour_n to_o the_o one_o will_v be_v secure_v without_o respect_n to_o the_o other_o and_o we_o have_v other_o as_o quick_a sight_v the_o other_o way_n that_o can_v distinguish_v between_o the_o authority_n and_o person_n of_o the_o king_n and_o make_v a_o pretend_a respect_n to_o he_o in_o his_o political_a capacity_n a_o excuse_n for_o violence_n against_o he_o in_o his_o personal_n that_o can_v raise_v arm_n by_o his_o authority_n against_o his_o person_n and_o use_v those_o arm_n against_o the_o man_n in_o defence_n of_o the_o king_n sophistical_a miscreant_n as_o if_o authority_n will_v fight_v against_o itself_o or_o murder_v of_o king_n can_v be_v in_o any_o sense_n allegiance_n to_o they_o the_o ignatian_a wit_n never_o be_v author_n of_o a_o more_o subtle_a distinction_n or_o a_o neat_a way_n of_o cheat_a conscience_n than_o this_o and_o if_o they_o do_v not_o prescribe_v to_o our_o dull_a tramontain_v in_o this_o it_o may_v be_v expect_v they_o will_v call_v some_o man_n so_o no_o long_o i_o be_o sure_a the_o scripture_n be_v never_o so_o nice_a as_o to_o distinguish_v between_o they_o and_o have_v david_n know_v of_o any_o such_o difference_n he_o need_v not_o have_v be_v put_v to_o any_o dilemma_n the_o case_n have_v be_v plain_a and_o
