some_o king_n violent_o and_o wrongful_o will_v do_v and_o which_o if_o any_o of_o their_o king_n shall_v do_v as_o he_o foresee_v many_o of_o they_o will_v do_v all_o that_o they_o be_v to_o do_v to_o help_v themselves_o be_v only_o to_o cry_v unto_o god_n to_o help_v they_o and_o consequent_o that_o though_o king_n govern_v never_o so_o unjust_o or_o never_o so_o contrary_a to_o god_n law_n or_o their_o own_o as_o some_o of_o the_o king_n of_o judah_n as_o well_o as_o those_o of_o israel_n do_v yet_o they_o must_v not_o forcible_o be_v resist_v by_o their_o subject_n but_o all_o that_o

one_o place_n he_o call_v a_o defier_n of_o deity_n and_o humanity_n and_o in_o another_o man_n place_n a_o enemy_n to_o god_n to_o king_n and_o to_o all_o mankind_n it_o be_v not_o bishop_n morley_n at_o least_o it_o be_v not_o bishop_n morley_n only_o but_o samuel_n the_o prophet_n and_o st._n paul_n the_o apostle_n and_o st._n peter_n too_o or_o rather_o the_o holy_a ghost_n himself_o that_o speak_v by_o they_o so_o that_o what_o be_v intend_v by_o mr._n baxter_n as_o a_o reproach_n to_o bishop_n morley_n be_v become_v blasphemy_n against_o god_n himself_o who_o truth_n it_o be_v for_o the_o maintain_v whereof_o bishop_n morley_n be_v so_o heinous_o reproach_v and_o therefore_o as_o st._n peter_n say_v to_o ananias_n when_o ananias_n think_v he_o have_v lie_v to_o st._n peter_n only_o thou_o have_v not_o lie_v unto_o man_n but_o unto_o god_n so_o may_v i_o say_v unto_o mr._n baxter_n that_o he_o have_v not_o reproach_v i_o or_o not_o i_o only_o but_o the_o holy_a ghost_n himself_o in_o call_v that_o doctrine_n a_o defiance_n of_o deity_n and_o humanity_n and_o a_o enmity_n to_o god_n to_o king_n and_o to_o all_o mankind_n which_o be_v by_o the_o inspiration_n of_o the_o holy_a ghost_n teach_v by_o samuel_n the_o prophet_n in_o the_o old_a testament_n and_o by_o st._n paul_n and_o st._n peter_n in_o the_o new_a but_o be_v it_o possible_a will_v some_o say_v that_o mr._n baxter_n be_v so_o sober_a and_o discreet_a and_o so_o meek_a a_o man_n as_o he_o be_v think_v to_o be_v shall_v publish_v in_o print_n so_o very_o severe_a a_o censure_n against_o bishop_n morley_n or_o any_o man_n else_o that_o be_v call_v a_o christian_a because_o and_o only_o because_o he_o maintain_v that_o and_o nothing_o but_o that_o which_o be_v teach_v by_o christ_n and_o his_o apostle_n and_o be_v believe_v and_o practise_v by_o the_o next_o and_o best_a of_o their_o disciple_n i_o answer_v that_o mr._n baxter_n have_v censure_v bishop_n morley_n as_o a_o defier_n of_o deity_n and_o humanity_n and_o as_o a_o enemy_n to_o god_n to_o king_n and_o to_o all_o mankind_n be_v evident_a from_o the_o place_n before_o quote_v out_o of_o his_o print_a paper_n and_o that_o he_o have_v no_o other_o but_o the_o aforesaid_a cause_n for_o it_o be_v evident_a likewise_o from_o what_o i_o have_v now_o say_v to_o disprove_v that_o calumny_n but_o the_o way_n he_o take_v to_o induce_v his_o reader_n to_o believe_v it_o be_v worth_a the_o observation_n it_o be_v the_o very_a same_o artificial_a juggle_a trick_n which_o i_o have_v observe_v he_o to_o make_v juggle_a use_n of_o more_o than_o once_o before_o i_o mean_v his_o put_v a_o false_a proposition_n of_o his_o own_o instead_o or_o in_o the_o place_n of_o a_o true_a one_o of_o i_o and_o then_o infer_v from_o the_o false_a one_o what_o he_o know_v can_v not_o be_v infer_v from_o the_o true_a one_o he_o charge_v i_o with_o what_o he_o infer_v from_o it_o thus_o by_o misreport_v what_o be_v affirm_v by_o we_o and_o deny_v by_o he_o at_o the_o savoy-conference_n he_o it_o thence_o infer_v that_o i_o be_v gross_o mistake_v in_o the_o report_n i_o have_v make_v of_o what_o he_o say_v at_o that_o conference_n and_o thus_o again_o because_o i_o have_v except_v against_o that_o aphorism_n of_o his_o as_o false_a which_o affirm_v all_o unlimited_a governor_n to_o be_v tyrant_n and_o to_o have_v no_o right_n to_o their_o unlimited_a government_n he_o make_v i_o say_v that_o all_o humane_a power_n be_v not_o limit_v by_o god_n and_o then_o infer_v that_o i_o be_o a_o defier_n of_o deity_n and_o humanity_n and_o so_o here_o likewise_o because_o i_o say_v that_o lawful_a sovereign_n be_v not_o to_o be_v resist_v by_o their_o subject_n though_o they_o be_v tyrant_n or_o though_o they_o do_v govern_v otherwise_o than_o by_o god_n or_o their_o own_o law_n they_o ought_v to_o govern_v he_o will_v make_v his_o reader_n to_o believe_v that_o i_o justify_v tyranny_n itself_o and_o that_o king_n may_v lawful_o do_v what_o they_o list_v to_o their_o subject_n and_o take_v away_o what_o they_o list_v from_o they_o their_o land_n their_o house_n their_o wife_n their_o child_n and_o their_o life_n also_o and_o all_o this_o because_o i_o say_v they_o be_v not_o to_o be_v resist_v if_o they_o do_v so_o by_o their_o subject_n and_o do_v not_o st._n paul_n say_v so_o too_o when_o he_o charge_v the_o christian_n upon_o pain_n of_o damnation_n not_o to_o resist_v nero_n who_o do_v all_o these_o outrage_n and_o more_o and_o worse_a also_o for_o he_o cause_v cruelty_n they_o to_o be_v empale_v with_o stake_n thrust_v into_o their_o body_n up_o to_o their_o throat_n and_o then_o besmear_v they_o all_o over_o with_o combustible_a matter_n set_v satyr_n they_o on_o fire_n to_o burn_v like_a flamboe'_v to_o give_v light_n to_o passenger_n as_o they_o go_v along_o by_o night_n in_o the_o street_n of_o rome_n and_o dare_v mr._n baxter_n say_v that_o st._n paul_n because_o he_o forbid_v his_o christian_a subject_n to_o resist_v this_o monster_n do_v therefore_o approve_v all_o the_o horrible_a cruelty_n and_o outrageous_a crime_n that_o he_o be_v guilty_a of_o or_o that_o he_o do_v thereby_o encourage_v all_o or_o any_o other_o king_n to_o do_v as_o he_o do_v and_o consequent_o be_v a_o enemy_n to_o god_n to_o king_n and_o to_o bishop_n all_o mankind_n i_o think_v he_o dare_v not_o and_o yet_o if_o this_o inference_n of_o his_o be_v good_a against_o i_o it_o must_v from_o the_o same_o premise_n be_v good_a against_o st._n paul_n also_o for_o the_o same_o premise_n will_v always_o infer_v the_o same_o conclusion_n and_o therefore_o st._n paul_n be_v or_o bishop_n morley_n be_v not_o upon_o this_o account_n what_o mr._n baxter_n say_v he_o be_v a_o enemy_n to_o god_n to_o king_n and_o to_o all_o mankind_n but_o what_o be_v mr._n baxter_n then_o in_o the_o mean_a time_n certain_o either_o not_o so_o good_a a_o logician_n or_o so_o good_a a_o christian_n as_o he_o will_v be_v think_v to_o be_v i_o be_o sure_a he_o be_v not_o such_o a_o christian_a as_o those_o of_o the_o primitive_a time_n be_v who_o neither_o want_v opinion_n courage_n nor_o force_n to_o defend_v themselves_o against_o the_o strong_a as_o well_o as_o the_o cruel_a of_o their_o persecute_v prince_n and_o consequent_o in_o mr._n baxter_n opinion_n be_v no_o better_a than_o fool_n or_o madman_n to_o suffer_v so_o tame_o and_o so_o patient_o as_o they_o do_v not_o only_o the_o loss_n of_o all_o they_o have_v but_o death_n itself_o and_o death_n with_o the_o most_o exquisite_a torment_n under_o their_o pagan_a persecute_v prince_n and_o under_o some_o christian_a heretical_a prince_n also_o rather_o than_o they_o will_v transgress_v those_o precept_n of_o st._n paul_n by_o so_o much_o as_o offer_v to_o defend_v themselves_o against_o their_o sovereign_n whether_o pagan_n or_o heretic_n or_o against_o those_o that_o be_v commission_v or_o impower_v by_o they_o and_o this_o doctrine_n of_o the_o unlawfulness_n for_o subject_n to_o defend_v themselves_o by_o force_n against_o the_o most_o cruel_a of_o their_o most_o persecute_v prince_n be_v universal_o believe_v

but_o whether_o upon_o this_o account_n i_o mean_v because_o they_o be_v the_o first_o christian_n subject_n that_o ever_o resist_v their_o sovereign_n or_o because_o the_o first_o founder_n of_o they_o make_v himself_o a_o

that_o have_v industrious_o be_v prepossess_v with_o prejudice_n either_o against_o their_o person_n or_o their_o function_n this_o be_v st._n paul_n case_n when_o there_o be_v some_o that_o do_v what_o they_o can_v to_o make_v the_o corinthian_n to_o undervalue_v his_o person_n that_o thereby_o they_o may_v discredit_v his_o doctrine_n and_o weaken_v his_o authority_n who_o therefore_o he_o

at_o last_o to_o take_v away_o his_o crown_n and_o his_o life_n from_o he_o and_o be_v it_o any_o wonder_n that_o those_o that_o be_v such_o enemy_n to_o king_n shall_v not_o be_v friend_n to_o

i_o hope_v will_v feed_v that_o flock_n with_o much_o more_o wholesome_a doctrine_n than_o mr._n baxter_n do_v when_o he_o sow_v the_o seed_n of_o schism_n and_o sedition_n and_o blow_v the_o

they_o do_v so_o scruple_n at_o shall_v not_o be_v enjoin_v by_o lawful_a authority_n though_o lawful_a in_o themselves_o because_o forsooth_o the_o enjoin_v of_o thing_n lawful_a by_o lawful_a
