ever_o their_o leaf_n may_v be_v for_o show_v yet_o it_o be_v but_o a_o wild_a degenerate_a plant_n of_o a_o strange_a vine_n as_o be_v manifest_a by_o its_o fruit_n see_v it_o prove_v a_o sour_a

and_o i_o will_v have_v the_o reader_n to_o observe_v how_o all_o along_o in_o the_o time_n of_o the_o prophet_n christ_n and_o his_o apostle_n and_o since_o to_o this_o very_a day_n the_o chief_a instrument_n of_o satan_n in_o the_o work_n of_o persecution_n be_v and_o have_v be_v the_o priest_n and_o false_a prophet_n and_o hireling_n with_o their_o bishop_n and_o pope_n and_o such_o unwise_a

and_o so_o that_o which_o be_v write_v in_o the_o second_o psalm_n have_v be_v and_o will_v be_v fulfil_v why_o do_v the_o heathen_a rage_n and_o the_o people_n murmur_n the_o king_n and_o prince_n band_n and_o assemble_v together_o against_o the_o lord_n and_o his_o truth_n say_v let_v we_o break_v their_o band_n and_o cast_v their_o cord_n from_o we_o but_o then_o mark_v he_o that_o sit_v in_o the_o heaven_n shall_v laugh_v the_o lord_n shall_v have_v they_o in_o derision_n and_o speak_v to_o they_o in_o his_o wrath_n and_o vex_v they_o in_o his_o sore_a displeasure_n and_o crush_v they_o as_o with_o a_o iron_n sceptre_n and_o break_v they_o in_o piece_n like_o a_o potter_n vessel_n and_o so_o this_o be_v according_a to_o that_o say_n he_o rebuke_v king_n for_o the_o sake_n of_o his_o

not_o every_o christian_n to_o obey_v the_o king_n i_o say_v yes_o in_o all_o righteousness_n active_o but_o if_o any_o king_n command_v contrary_a to_o god_n and_o make_v law_n contrary_a to_o the_o royal_a law_n of_o love_n and_o righteousness_n than_o the_o command_v of_o god_n and_o his_o law_n of_o truth_n be_v to_o be_v keep_v only_o and_o the_o other_o witness_v against_o not_o by_o plot_v

of_o this_o world_n therefore_o my_o servant_n must_v not_o fight_v and_o this_o be_v the_o faith_n and_o patience_n of_o saint_n to_o stand_v still_o and_o see_v the_o lord_n salvation_n and_o preservation_n whilst_o they_o that_o be_v kill_v with_o sword_n perish_v and_o be_v devour_v one_o of_o another_o but_o say_v some_o man_n ought_v you_o not_o to_o conform_v and_o be_v of_o the_o

not_o active_o obey_v see_v we_o have_v a_o christian_a king_n &_o c_o to_o which_o i_o answer_v by_o this_o rule_n than_o i_o may_v not_o know_v what_o religion_n i_o must_v be_v of_o next_o see_v the_o papist_n and_o presbyterian_o and_o independent_n and_o other_o profess_v themselves_o christian_n and_o we_o have_v see_v how_o one_o get_v up_o after_o another_o and_o every_o one_o set_v up_o a_o new_a kind_n of_o worship_n and_o cry_n you_o must_v obey_v the_o high_a power_n and_o bow_v down_o to_o my_o fashion_n of_o religion_n so_o if_o i_o shall_v manifest_v myself_o as_o a_o cloud_n carry_v about_o with_o every_o tempest_n of_o man_n brain_n and_o foolish_a conceit_n and_o such_o as_o can_v do_v see_v i_o little_a question_n but_o rather_o than_o suffer_v deep_o they_o can_v conform_v to_o the_o turk_n alcoron_n or_o in_o the_o end_n wheel_n about_o to_o be_v atheist_n and_o worship_v the_o visible_a sun_n moon_n and_o star_n or_o fall_v down_o to_o nebuchadnezers_n image_n if_o there_o be_v but_o music_n etc._n etc._n but_o he_o that_o be_v real_o a_o christian_n will_v stand_v to_o the_o worship_n that_o christ_n set_v up_o which_o be_v in_o the_o spirit_n and_o in_o the_o truth_n which_o be_v the_o same_o to_o day_n as_o yesterday_o and_o will_v remain_v when_o popish_a dream_n and_o invention_n of_o giddy_a head_a man_n will_v have_v a_o end_n for_o the_o stand_a rule_n that_o christ_n have_v appoint_v for_o his_o people_n to_o walk_v by_o be_v not_o a_o mass-book_n nor_o the_o fragment_n thereof_o cover_v with_o other_o name_n but_o it_o be_v the_o spirit_n of_o truth_n which_o he_o promise_v shall_v lead_v and_o guide_v they_o and_o that_o it_o shall_v abide_v and_o remain_v with_o they_o for_o ever_o so_o here_o be_v the_o unchangeable_a way_n and_o rule_n and_o worship_n set_v up_o by_o he_o who_o be_v king_n of_o king_n and_o this_o be_v the_o high_a power_n unto_o who_o the_o soul_n be_v to_o be_v subject_a for_o it_o be_v write_v all_o power_n in_o heaven_n and_o earth_n be_v give_v unto_o he_o therefore_o let_v all_o proud_a flesh_n tremble_v before_o he_o and_o let_v none_o think_v to_o rob_v he_o of_o his_o prerogative_n lest_o they_o be_v drive_v to_o eat_v grass_n with_o nebuchadnezer_n and_o so_o be_v make_v to_o know_v there_o be_v one_o will_v rule_v in_o the_o kingdom_n of_o man_n but_o say_v many_o people_n what_o do_v you_o think_v of_o the_o present_a proceed_n against_o fanatic_n and_o do_v you_o think_v it_o safe_a to_o suffer_v such_o great_a multitude_n to_o meet_v together_o and_o be_v it_o not_o time_n to_o limit_v they_o &_o c_o to_o which_o i_o answer_v the_o great_a meeting_n that_o i_o have_v see_v common_o be_v at_o the_o playhouse_n and_o if_o there_o be_v danger_n in_o a_o multitude_n then_o to_o be_v sure_o they_o shall_v be_v suppress_v for_o the_o proverb_n say_v the_o wicked_a run_v together_o to_o do_v evil_a but_o i_o observe_v such_o meeting_n as_o be_v for_o play_v and_o sing_v of_o ballad_n though_o in_o the_o open_a street_n be_v most_o suffer_v and_o rather_o increase_v then_o otherwise_o together_o with_o bear-baiting_n revel_v race-running_n and_o much_o of_o that_o nature_n whereby_o the_o lord_n be_v daily_o dishonour_v and_o the_o earth_n corrupt_v but_o i_o hear_v of_o no_o fine_n that_o be_v levy_v upon_o such_o metre_n nor_o house_n nor_o upon_o those_o open_a profane_a vassal_n of_o the_o devil_n who_o spend_v their_o whole_a time_n in_o cheat_a ●ools_n of_o their_o money_n and_o teach_v youth_n to_o be_v idle_a and_o wanton_a and_o curse_v and_o swear_v and_o so_o fit_v they_o for_o baudy-house_n and_o to_o be_v thief_n and_o so_o in_o the_o end_n to_o the_o gallow_n and_o as_o for_o the_o late_a persecution_n in_o itself_o i_o have_v no_o reason_n to_o believe_v that_o it_o be_v the_o fruit_n of_o a_o right_a spirit_n first_o because_o covetous_a bishop_n and_o priest_n be_v the_o chief_a founder_n of_o it_o for_o their_o own_o filthy_a lucre_n sake_n that_o so_o as_o merchant_n of_o babylon_n they_o may_v have_v the_o whole_a trade_n to_o themselves_o and_o also_o lord_n over_o god_n heritage_n second_o many_o of_o those_o that_o give_v life_n to_o it_o the_o nation_n well_o know_v have_v more_o need_n to_o sit_v down_o and_o repent_v in_o dust_n and_o ash_n and_o wait_v to_o know_v their_o own_o conscience_n wash_v and_o purge_v from_o filthiness_n then_o go_v about_o to_o shut_v up_o the_o kingdom_n of_o heaven_n against_o they_o that_o desire_v to_o enter_v and_o also_o to_o bring_v again_o into_o bondage_n such_o who_o through_o grace_n have_v escape_v the_o the_o pollution_n of_o the_o flesh_n that_o be_v in_o the_o world_n three_o it_o make_v sad_a the_o heart_n of_o the_o righteous_a but_o many_o that_o be_v well_o know_v by_o their_o neighbour_n to_o be_v drunkard_n fiddler_n player_n swearer_n etc._n etc._n even_o the_o worst_a of_o man_n it_o be_v like_o a_o feast_n for_o they_o and_o hereby_o a_o arrow_n be_v put_v into_o their_o hand_n to_o make_v the_o righteous_a their_o mark_n and_o their_o estate_n a_o continual_a prey_n many_o of_o these_o wicked_a instrument_n brag_v what_o they_o will_v be_v worth_a in_o few_o year_n but_o let_v they_o remember_v judas_n his_o end_n though_o for_o a_o time_n it_o may_v be_v suffer_v as_o in_o the_o day_n of_o malachi_n that_o the_o proud_a and_o such_o as_o work_v wickedness_n and_o daily_o tempt_v god_n may_v be_v set_v up_o and_o count_v happy_a and_o yet_o deliver_v but_o as_o peter_n say_v their_o damnation_n slumber_v not_o for_o woe_n be_v unto_o such_o as_o go_v in_o the_o way_n of_o cain_n and_o balaam_n etc._n etc._n four_o the_o law_n of_o god_n teach_v a_o man_n to_o love_v his_o neighbour_n as_o himself_o and_o do_v as_o he_o will_v be_v do_v unto_o and_o every_o one_o shall_v answer_v for_o himself_o but_o i_o do_v not_o believe_v these_o ruler_n that_o make_v this_o late_a act_n will_v be_v serve_v so_o themselves_o as_o they_o have_v appoint_v to_o be_v do_v to_o other_o and_o also_o that_o one_o man_n shall_v suffer_v for_o another_o this_o be_v contrary_n to_o god_n holy_a law_n and_o therefore_o all_o king_n prince_n and_o ruler_n who_o desire_n and_o expect_v their_o law_n and_o command_n to_o be_v keep_v let_v they_o be_v sure_o themselves_o to_o keep_v the_o command_n of_o god_n and_o act_n and_o walk_v according_a to_o his_o holy_a equal_a law_n of_o love_n and_o righteousness_n and_o this_o be_v the_o way_n for_o a_o king_n throne_n to_o be_v establish_v and_o his_o family_n and_o kingdom_n to_o be_v bless_v and_o to_o cause_v the_o heart_n of_o the_o upright_a to_o cleave_v unto_o he_o and_o make_v his_o dread_a heavy_a to_o the_o worker_n of_o iniquity_n last_o i_o observe_v that_o king_n and_o great_a learned_a man_n be_v very_o ready_a to_o be_v temper_v about_o religion_n pull_v down_o and_o set_v up_o what_o please_v their_o fancy_n but_o we_o see_v they_o be_v not_o infallible_a but_o be_v often_o time_n carry_v away_o with_o their_o own_o high_a thought_n and_o by_o lend_v a_o ear_n to_o such_o creep_a deceiver_n that_o serve_v not_o the_o lord_n jesus_n but_o their_o own_o purse_n and_o belly_n they_o have_v many_o fold_n more_o set_v up_o false_a worship_n and_o cause_v people_n to_o sin_n by_o compel_v they_o thereunto_o according_a to_o history_n than_o ever_o yet_o they_o be_v bringer_n to_o the_o true_a worship_n or_o themselves_o find_v walk_v in_o it_o and_o through_o their_o darkness_n have_v persecute_v and_o slay_v the_o lord_n worth_a yes_o by_o many_o cruel_a trial_n and_o torture_n judge_v and_o condemn_v they_o as_o deluder_n and_o deceiver_n wherefore_o all_o high_a and_o low_a come_v to_o christ_n the_o light_n that_o so_o you_o may_v see_v over_o the_o darkness_n of_o man_n way_n and_o worship_n which_o be_v full_a of_o envy_n strife_n persecution_n and_o murder_n and_o every_o evil_a work_n and_o so_o come_v out_o of_o they_o into_o the_o new_a and_o live_a way_n to_o the_o live_a worship_n of_o the_o true_a god_n which_o be_v in_o the_o mountain_n of_o holiness_n where_o there_o be_v no_o kill_v nor_o destroy_v but_o be_v know_v to_o be_v disciple_n of_o christ_n in_o that_o they_o love_v one_o another_o christ_n be_v the_o author_n and_o defender_n of_o their_o faith_n which_o give_v they_o victory_n over_o the_o world_n and_o preserve_v his_o church_n not_o by_o club_n and_o drum_n pike_n and_o sword_n in_o the_o hand_n of_o drunkard_n and_o curser_n and_o mocker_n etc._n etc._n upon_o
