they_o to_o the_o most_o exquisite_a torment_n say_v cornelius_n tacitus_n for_o he_o crucify_a some_o and_o other_o he_o burn_v and_o as_o before_o he_o set_v fire_n on_o rome_n that_o he_o may_v please_v himself_o with_o the_o resemblance_n of_o the_o burn_a of_o troy_n so_o after_o that_o he_o burn_v christian_n in_o huge_a heap_n and_o pile_n that_o the_o light_n of_o the_o fire_n may_v direct_v passenger_n in_o dark_a night_n say_v the_o historian_n and_o not_o content_a with_o all_o this_o cruelty_n many_o christian_n he_o dress_v up_o in_o the_o skin_n of_o wild_a beast_n that_o they_o may_v be_v tear_v in_o piece_n by_o dog_n as_o the_o same_o tacitus_n relate_v further_a it_o be_v in_o the_o reign_n of_o this_o monster_n of_o man_n that_o st._n paul_n live_v by_o this_o token_n that_o he_o cause_v that_o apostle_n himself_o to_o be_v behead_v and_o it_o be_v in_o the_o 2d_o year_n of_o nero_n as_o it_o be_v probable_o conjecture_v by_o baronius_n out_o of_o origen_n that_o st._n paul_n write_v this_o epistle_n to_o the_o christian_n in_o and_o about_o the_o imperial_a city_n and_o though_o st._n paul_n know_v enough_o of_o the_o man_n already_o and_o the_o spirit_n of_o god_n foresee_v a_o great_a deal_n more_o yet_o you_o see_v what_o be_v write_v touch_v subjection_n even_o to_o he_o who_o be_v a_o shame_n to_o all_o prince_n even_o this_o let_v every_o soul_n be_v subject_a to_o the_o high_a power_n for_o there_o be_v no_o power_n but_o of_o god_n the_o power_n that_o be_v be_v ordain_v of_o god_n whosoever_o therefore_o resist_v the_o power_n resist_v the_o ordinance_n of_o god_n and_o they_o that_o resist_v shall_v receive_v to_o themselves_o damnation_n against_o this_o that_o have_v be_v speak_v there_o be_v one_o popular_a objection_n which_o i_o must_v take_v notice_n of_o and_o it_o be_v this_o that_o where_o a_o kingdom_n have_v adopt_v the_o true_a religion_n so_o that_o it_o be_v establish_v by_o public_a authority_n as_o god_n be_v bless_v it_o be_v in_o this_o kingdom_n and_o the_o law_n of_o the_o country_n be_v on_o its_o side_n there_o resistance_n be_v not_o unlawful_a if_o a_o prince_n do_v endeavour_v the_o destruction_n or_o alteration_n of_o the_o true_a faith_n in_o answer_v hereunto_o these_o thing_n in_o short_a be_v to_o be_v consider_v 1._o first_o that_o the_o true_a religion_n be_v establish_v in_o the_o jewish_a state_n by_o the_o municipal_a law_n of_o that_o nation_n and_o that_o by_o the_o authority_n of_o god_n himself_o and_o yet_o though_o several_a king_n do_v attempt_v the_o introduction_n of_o idolatry_n nay_o do_v actual_o introduce_v it_o the_o jew_n resist_v not_o nevertheless_o and_o if_o they_o have_v resist_v such_o resistance_n have_v be_v sinful_a notwithstanding_o 2._o it_o be_v very_o hard_a and_o unjust_a that_o prince_n favour_n shall_v be_v make_v use_n of_o against_o themselves_o that_o their_o prerogative_n shall_v be_v prejudice_v for_o their_o have_v receive_v the_o faith_n and_o for_o the_o kindness_n they_o have_v show_v to_o the_o church_n of_o christ_n because_o constantine_n be_v a_o zealous_a protector_n of_o the_o true_a religion_n it_o will_v have_v be_v high_o unreasonable_a shall_v this_o have_v redound_v to_o the_o violation_n of_o the_o imperial_a dignity_n of_o his_o son_n constantius_n the_o primitive_a christian_n have_v the_o law_n of_o constantine_n on_o their_o side_n and_o yet_o they_o do_v not_o think_v resistance_n lawful_a though_o the_o son_n be_v a_o enemy_n to_o that_o faith_n of_o which_o the_o father_n be_v the_o defender_n 3._o no_o law_n ought_v to_o be_v plead_v beyond_o their_o plain_a design_n and_o mean_v now_o the_o intent_n of_o our_o law_n be_v to_o secure_v our_o religion_n against_o schismatic_n and_o heretic_n but_o not_o to_o arm_v subject_n against_o their_o prince_n for_o the_o same_o law_n which_o be_v the_o stabiliment_n of_o the_o church_n do_v manifest_o and_o round_o declare_v all_o resistance_n to_o be_v unlawful_a and_o treasonable_a and_o do_v agnize_v the_o power_n of_o the_o sword_n to_o be_v in_o the_o king_n and_o in_o the_o king_n only_o so_o that_o no_o law_n be_v on_o our_o side_n as_o to_o matter_n of_o resistance_n 4._o shall_v our_o law_n be_v so_o bad_a as_o to_o allow_v of_o resistance_n in_o some_o case_n yet_o this_o can_v be_v no_o bar_n against_o the_o law_n of_o god_n which_o forbid_v resistance_n in_o all_o case_n for_o it_o be_v not_o in_o the_o power_n of_o man_n to_o give_v we_o leave_v to_o sin_n nor_o can_v any_o humane_a authority_n give_v we_o the_o liberty_n whether_o we_o will_v obey_v the_o command_n of_o christ_n or_o no._n i_o may_v not_o in_o any_o wise_a hurt_v my_o prince_n have_v i_o his_o own_o leave_n for_o it_o because_o the_o king_n of_o king_n have_v command_v i_o under_o pain_n of_o his_o high_a displeasure_n to_o do_v the_o contrary_a 5._o nay_o i_o will_v be_v bold_a to_o say_v in_o the_o last_o place_n that_o suppose_v lawgiver_n shall_v be_v so_o impolitic_a as_o under_o pain_n of_o death_n to_o require_v and_o by_o a_o form_v law_n to_o command_v we_o to_o resist_v the_o sovereign_a power_n it_o ought_v not_o in_o any_o wise_a to_o be_v do_v however_o for_o it_o be_v a_o stand_a rule_n in_o christianity_n that_o authority_n be_v not_o to_o be_v obey_v in_o thing_n that_o be_v unlawful_a now_o resistance_n be_v simple_o and_o in_o its_o own_o nature_n sinful_a and_o all_o casuist_n will_v tell_v we_o that_o rei_fw-la illicitae_fw-la nulla_fw-la est_fw-la obligatio_fw-la a_o unlawful_a command_n can_v bind_v unless_o it_o be_v to_o suffering_n such_o a_o command_n will_v be_v null_a and_o void_a of_o itself_o the_o matter_n of_o a_o law_n sometime_o take_v off_o its_o obligation_n when_o it_o be_v contrary_a to_o the_o law_n of_o god_n and_o nature_n and_o such_o will_v a_o law_n for_o resistance_n be_v shall_v the_o authority_n of_o the_o whole_a kingdom_n consent_n to_o it_o i_o have_v do_v now_o with_o the_o consideration_n of_o my_o text_n and_o come_v at_o length_n to_o the_o day_n but_o be_o at_o a_o great_a loss_n how_o or_o where_o to_o begin_v or_o in_o what_o language_n to_o express_v my_o sense_n of_o that_o superlative_a villainy_n act_v at_o this_o time_n which_o have_v stain_v the_o conscience_n of_o rebel_n with_o blood_n which_o have_v dye_v the_o face_n of_o all_o christian_n with_o shame_n which_o have_v bring_v upon_o all_o english_a man_n a_o perpetual_a reproach_n which_o be_v a_o astonishment_n to_o all_o nation_n a_o blow_n to_o all_o throne_n a_o wound_n to_o the_o heart_n of_o all_o prince_n a_o contumely_n to_o heaven_n and_o such_o a_o horrid_a affront_n to_o the_o great_a god_n that_o i_o be_o afraid_a whatsoever_o judgement_n and_o plague_n we_o have_v labour_v under_o since_o or_o do_v labour_n under_o still_o have_v fall_v upon_o our_o head_n as_o the_o return_v of_o that_o cry_n with_o which_o the_o sacred_a blood_n of_o the_o lord_n anoint_v his_o late_a majesty_n go_v up_o to_o heaven_n i_o pray_v god_n our_o land_n may_v be_v once_o thorough_o cleanse_v from_o the_o gild_n of_o it_o the_o blood_n of_o christ_n can_v and_o nothing_o but_o christ_n own_o blood_n can_v purge_v we_o and_o i_o be_o of_o the_o opinion_n that_o if_o the_o blood_n of_o any_o prince_n or_o martyr_n can_v be_v so_o valuable_a and_o precious_a as_o never_o to_o be_v atone_v for_o in_o this_o world_n it_o will_v be_v that_o royal_a that_o sacred_a that_o innocent_a blood_n which_o be_v so_o barbarous_o shed_v upon_o the_o earth_n as_o at_o this_o time_n as_o often_o as_o i_o cast_v my_o thought_n upon_o the_o consideration_n of_o this_o most_o horrid_a fact_n i_o can_v but_o think_v on_o those_o memorable_a word_n of_o david_n to_o the_o amalekite_n upon_o the_o death_n of_o saul_n part_v of_o the_o whole_a story_n we_o have_v in_o 2_o sam._n 1._o saul_n indeed_o have_v kill_v himself_o with_o his_o own_o sword_n at_o least_o have_v give_v himself_o his_o deaths-wound_n this_o amalekite_n take_v off_o the_o crown_n from_o his_o head_n and_o the_o bracelet_n from_o his_o arm_n and_o bring_v both_o unto_o david_n pretend_v that_o he_o have_v slay_v saul_n very_o probable_a it_o be_v that_o he_o hope_v for_o some_o good_a reward_n at_o david_n hand_n which_o have_v sometime_o be_v the_o traitor_n fortune_n and_o he_o be_v the_o first_o i_o read_v of_o that_o count_v king_n kill_v a_o meritorious_a act_n but_o instead_o of_o reap_v his_o expect_a booty_n he_o obtain_v not_o so_o much_o as_o a_o para●●_n but_o receive_v his_o final_a and_o deserve_a doom_n david_n stand_v amaze_v and_o astonish_v at_o the_o villainy_n how_o be_v thou_o not_o afraid_a say_v
