the_o ethnic_a emperor_n so_o it_o give_v we_o to_o understand_v again_o that_o religion_n and_o loyalty_n be_v near_o akin_a and_o in_o some_o respect_n very_o much_o the_o same_o thing_n and_o therefore_o st._n peter_n we_o see_v link_v they_o fast_o together_o and_o by_o a_o very_a quick_a and_o direct_a transition_n pass_v over_o coherent_o from_o one_o to_o the_o other_o and_o true_o when_o solomon_n and_o st._n peter_n the_o one_o the_o wise_a prince_n and_o preacher_n in_o the_o jewish_a and_o the_o other_o the_o prime_a apostle_n in_o the_o christian_a church_n concur_v thus_o full_o in_o point_n of_o judgement_n touch_v the_o near_a affinity_n betwixt_o religion_n and_o loyalty_n and_o the_o necessity_n of_o both_o why_o shall_v any_o question_v the_o truth_n of_o either_o and_o yet_o they_o be_v not_o only_o fair_o agree_v in_o the_o case_n but_o so_o perfect_a and_o absolute_a be_v the_o consent_n betwixt_o they_o that_o they_o signify_v and_o declare_v it_o by_o connect_v or_o tack_v both_o of_o they_o together_o in_o almost_o one_o and_o the_o same_o expression_n for_o fear_v god_n and_o honour_v the_o king_n differ_v but_o little_a from_o fear_v thou_o the_o lord_n and_z the_o king_n but_o how_o can_v fear_v which_o be_v a_o thing_n arise_v from_o apprehension_n of_o evil_a have_v god_n for_o its_o object_n who_o be_v the_o chief_a good_a fear_v thou_o the_o lord_n the_o question_n be_v pertinent_a and_o answer_v thus_o fear_v in_o the_o text_n be_v not_o to_o be_v take_v for_o a_o mere_a natural_a passion_n or_o according_a to_o the_o definition_n that_o moralist_n give_v of_o it_o but_o for_o a_o ingenuous_a filial_a and_o respectful_a awe_n to_o be_v testify_v in_o the_o reverential_a veneration_n of_o the_o deity_n if_o this_o be_v too_o narrow_a a_o notion_n of_o it_o yet_o and_o not_o adequate_a to_o the_o full_a latitude_n of_o its_o meaning_n here_o as_o in_o likelihood_n it_o be_v not_o for_o fear_n be_v a_o very_a comprehensive_a term_n and_o be_v common_o in_o scripture_n put_v for_o the_o entire_a systeme_n of_o religion_n we_o must_v then_o amplify_v or_o enlarge_v its_o signification_n far_o and_o think_v thus_o concern_v it_o that_o it_o be_v a_o complex_n or_o body_n of_o holy_a virtue_n and_o duty_n fear_v thou_o the_o lord_n that_o be_v if_o we_o will_v express_v it_o in_o particular_n love_v thou_o the_o lord_n honour_n thou_o the_o lord_n trust_v thou_o the_o lord_n obey_v thou_o the_o lord_n and_o therefore_o we_o find_v in_o the_o bible_n that_o those_o grace_n or_o duty_n be_v the_o usual_a concomitant_n if_o not_o constituent_v of_o this_o excellent_a fear_n thus_o what_o do_v the_o lord_n thy_o god_n require_v of_o thou_o but_o to_o fear_v the_o lord_n thy_o god_n and_o to_o love_n he_o deut._n 10.12_o and_o as_o fear_n be_v there_o place_v with_o divine_a love_n so_o sometime_o it_o be_v join_v with_o divine_a honour_n where_o be_v my_o honour_n where_o be_v my_o fear_n

fear_n psalm_n 2.11_o now_o this_o be_v the_o full_a sense_n of_o fear_v the_o lord_n here_o in_o the_o text_n it_o will_v be_v of_o singular_a use_n to_o direct_v we_o into_o genuine_a expression_n of_o our_o loyalty_n for_o the_o fear_n of_o the_o king_n be_v much_o the_o same_o with_o the_o fear_n of_o the_o lord_n though_o subordinate_a and_o inferior_a to_o it_o as_o above_o be_v note_v hence_o it_o will_v follow_v that_o our_o fear_n of_o he_o must_v be_v a_o set_v of_o principle_n and_o a_o conjugation_n of_o duty_n amological_a to_o those_o that_o compound_n or_o make_v up_o the_o fear_n of_o the_o lord_n and_o if_o we_o will_v act_v it_o aright_o we_o must_v do_v it_o in_o correspondent_n or_o suitable_a instance_n only_o with_o abatement_n equal_a or_o proportionate_a to_o its_o comparative_a inferiority_n to_o speak_v more_o plain_o and_o so_o as_o all_o may_v understand_v as_o they_o who_o fear_v the_o lord_n aright_o must_v have_v their_o fear_n constitute_v of_o and_o exhibit_v in_o affection_n and_o honour_n confidence_n and_o obedience_n so_o they_o that_o fear_v the_o king_n aright_o must_v have_v their_o fear_n make_v up_o of_o the_o like_a ingredient_n and_o signify_v in_o the_o like_a expression_n only_o as_o i_o say_v we_o must_v keep_v to_o due_a measure_n still_o yea_o as_o true_a religion_n or_o the_o fear_n of_o the_o lord_n must_v consist_v of_o and_o be_v manifest_v in_o hearty_a affection_n high_a honour_n firm_a confidence_n and_o most_o cheerful_a obedience_n so_o our_o true_a loyalty_n or_o fear_n of_o the_o king_n must_v symbolize_v or_o partake_v with_o it_o here_o again_o and_o come_v up_o to_o it_o in_o a_o meet_a and_o laudable_a resemblance_n we_o must_v love_v he_o cordial_o honour_v he_o great_o trust_v he_o
