A54266	Some grounds and reasons from the law of God, and this nation to manifest the unlawfulnesse of the practice of those magistrates, and others, who commit men to prison, or fine them for not putting off the hat, or not standing bare before them, to convince them of their errour therein : and also to remove prejudices and stumbling-blocks out of the way of the honest-hearted, and to satisfie all that are moderate therein.	Pennyman, John, 1628-1706.; Coveney, Thomas, 17th cent.; Wollrich, Humphry, 1633?-1707.	1660 (1660)	Wing P1415; ESTC R18337	4,133	10

act_n of_o courtesy_n neither_o by_o put_v off_o the_o hat_n be_v true_a obedience_n love_n or_o hatred_n know_v but_o rather_o general_o know_v to_o give_v nourishment_n to_o dissimulation_n and_o hypocrisy_n beside_o to_o command_v any_o person_n to_o put_v off_o his_o hat_n especial_o for_o a_o magistrate_n to_o do_v it_o himself_o be_v absurd_a for_o that_o be_v to_o use_v it_o contrary_a to_o the_o end_n for_o which_o it_o be_v make_v which_o be_v to_o cover_v the_o head_n and_o to_o keep_v it_o from_o cold_a and_o rain_n whereby_o sickness_n may_v be_v prevent_v and_o not_o to_o keep_v it_o in_o the_o hand_n and_o a_o wise_a man_n begin_v from_o the_o end_n of_o a_o thing_n and_o weigh_v every_o thing_n as_o it_o be_v there_o as_o say_v cook_n to_o bring_v error_n to_o

magistrate_n be_v not_o a_o competent_a judge_n but_o the_o party_n himself_o and_o therefore_o it_o be_v against_o reason_n that_o it_o shall_v be_v in_o the_o magistrate_n power_n to_o command_v the_o hat_n to_o be_v put_v off_o by_o he_o who_o nature_n can_v bear_v it_o and_o also_o it_o be_v the_o same_o as_o to_o command_v he_o to_o put_v off_o any_o of_o his_o other_o garment_n and_o it_o also_o destroy_v propriety_n which_o a_o great_a part_n of_o the_o law_n be_v make_v to_o preserve_v with_o magna_fw-la charta_fw-la and_o the_o petition_n of_o right_n which_o be_v destroy_v and_o

our_o representative_n from_o all_o which_o it_o be_v clear_a that_o those_o magistrate_n that_o fine_a and_o imprison_v innocent_a man_n who_o for_o conscience_n sake_n can_v bow_v to_o their_o will_n by_o put_v off_o the_o hat_n they_o be_v neither_o warrant_v by_o the_o law_n of_o god_n right_a reason_n or_o of_o this_o nation_n but_o on_o the_o contrary_a such_o act_n be_v mere_o
