A78076	By reason of the distraction that is in the Romane Empire, these be delivered especially to the emperour, and then also to all other potentates, kings, princes, rulers, governours, and magistrates, in all Europe; who ought to consider, according to conscience, what their office and place is; and not to rule, judge, and domineere, without righteousness, or against God: as hath been done for a long while by the working of Satan in this false Jerusalem: and yet is still so done more and more apparantly.		1648 (1648)	Wing B6356; Thomason E468_4*; ESTC R205323	14,226	16
