Then
said
Abishai
to
Dauid
,
God
hath
closed
thine
enemy
into
thine
hande
this
daie
:
nowe
therefore
,
I
pray
thee

I

And
Dauid
said

Abishai

Destroy
him
not
:
for
who
can
lay
his
hand
on

Lords

be

As
the
Lord
liueth
,
either
the
Lord
shal
smite
him
,
or
his
day
shal
come
to
dy
,

hee
shall

The
Lord
keepe
me
from
laying
mine
hand
vppon
the
Lordes
annointed

but
,
I
pray
thee
,
take

OVR

THERE
are
,
Right
honorable
,
as
farre
as
I
can
iudge
,
To
passe
ouer
the
corruptions
of
doctrin
,
This
second
Monster
of
Rome
,
His
mouth
speaketh
lies
:
In
his
actions
,
of
that
which
followeth
,
His
right
hande
is
the
right
hand
of
iniquity
.
But
ô
that
al
Princes
were
of
King
Dauids
mind
,
not
to
meddle
,
nor
to
communicate
with
such
bloody
sacrifices
,
Although
your
Lordshippe
knoweth
his
dooings
in
this
realme
better
then
I
can
deliuer
:
yet
I
purpose
,
by
your
good
leaue
and
licence
,
to
set
down
the
proceedings
of
this
Hydra
,
and
his
actions
by
degrees
and
steps
for
some
Instruction
,
and
a
Caueat
to
my
countrymen
.
Regno
,
regnabo
,

One
saith
:
I
doe
raigne
,
another
:
I
wil
raigne
,
another
:
I
haue
raigned
,
another
:
I
am
put
from
my
raigne
.
He
maketh
Apollo
to
giue
ouer
the
chariot
of
the
Sunne
,
and
to
resigne
it
to
any
rechles
&
rash
Phaeton
,
though
he
set
on
fier
heauen
and
earth
.
Hee
wil
win
the
horse
,
or
loose
both
horse
and
saddle
.
He
can
be
content
that
Dauid
or
any
other
godly
Prince
bee
vnhorsed
,
and
vnseated
:
and
that
wanton
and
rebellious
Absalom
bee
placed
and
setled
.
This
bloodie
action
of
warring
is
performed
sometime
in
their
owne
person
:
as
Iulius
the
second
that
fought
against
the
French
with
Paules
sword
,
and
others
both
Popes
and
Cardinals
may
bee
witnesses
:
sometime
by
inciting
,
and
setting
on
other
Princes
against
a
Realme
or
Seignory
.
As
Pippin
&
Charles
were
imploied
against
the
Lombardians
by
the
commaundement
of
Adrian
:
Pope
Nicolas
saith
to
Charles
the
Emperour
:
No
man
that
is
a
souldior
to
God
entangleth
himselfe
with
secular
businesse
.
And
if
the
souldiours
of
the
woorlde
apply
themselues
to
warfare
,
what
hath
the
Bishoppes
and
souldiours
of
Christ
to
doe
,
but
to
goe
to
their
praiers
?
Quid
ad
Episcopos
&
milites
Christi
,
nisi
vt
vacent
orationibus
?
If
this
head
of
Hydra
by
Gods
mightie
&
mercifull
hand
bee
cut
off
,
so
that
forreiners
wil
not
,
nor
cannot
satisfie
the
turn
,
&
his
lust
,
Yet
,
there
is
another
heade
springing
as
a
supply
to
the
rest
,
The
spiritual
sword
,
Excommunication
of
Princes
,
Besides
these
,
ex
officio
&
pro
imperio
,
a
Christian
Prince
.
So
it
pleased
Pope
Zachary
to
throwe
out
King
Childerick
and
Pope
Gregory
the
fourth
,
King
Ludowick
:
the
Queenes
Maiesty
,
releasing
the
people
from
al
bands
of
loyalty
and
subiection
,
with
a
full
licence
of
rebellion
:
but
this
was
but
a
word
,
no
blow
.
God
sometime
giueth
that
spirite
to
Prince
and
people
,
that
these
proceedings
take
no
place
:
then
an
other
heade
starteth
vp
,
Priuie
murdering
,
authorised
as
lawefull
by
this
Antichristian
Prelate
.
Secretlie
and
subtillie
this
Popishe
Hydra
woorketh
with
poison
,
with
pistol
,
with
gunne
,
with
sword
,
with
tooles
of
Death
,
all
framed
in
the
shoppe
of
the
lame
Smithe
Vulcan
,
Al
these
actions
haue
been
here
attempted
:
in
these
steppes
hath
this
Monster
walked
among
vs
:
which
all
sauour
of
violence
,
oppression
,
murdering
of
the
Lordes
annointed
,
and
of
his
Saints
.
The
reason
of
this
Action
is
set
downe
by
August
.
Steuchus
,
To
accomplish
these
fierce
,
Agnus
Dei
,
masses
,
Confessions
,
and
of
many
other
goodly
bables
,
of
saluation
by
their
tradition
,
of
damnation
by
our
religion
,
which
is
nothing
,
but
lying
,
cogging
,
and
deceiuing
the
simple
.
This
quality
and
counterfaite
Religion
hath
bin
told
before
in
an
exhortation
to
Princes
:
It
is
most
euident
,
that
there
is
no
part
of
the
Christian
woorlde
,
which
hath
not
bene
craftily
tempted
by
these
kind
of
Monsters
:
&
that
many
Kings
and
Princes
haue
been
fraudulently
circumuented
by
them
.
And
againe
:
They
know
how
to
deceiue
notably
,
to
circumuent
,
to
forswear
,
to
forge
testaments
,
to
prophane
diuine
and
humane
thinges
,
to
make
strife
,
to
trouble
the
quiet
,
to
confound
heauen
with
earth
.
There
is
yet
to
make
vp
7
deadly
sins
,
the
seuenth
head
,
a
Magical
head
,
Titus
Liuius
,
and
his
Phisition
counsailed
him
not
to
handle
them
,
as
sent
from
an
enemy
,
for
fear
of
poison
or
infection
:
Doe
you
not
know
(
saith
he
)
that
the
souls
and
liues
of
kings
are
not
subiect
to
the
will
of
priuate
men
,
These
and
such
like
heady
actions
are
in
this
realme
continually
practised
:
which
may
witnesse
to
the
world
what
monstrous
religion
the
Pope
bringeth
and
brocheth
to
vs
.
No
maruel
if
the
first
part
be
naught
,
and
his
faith
corrupt
,
sith
the
second
,
his
fruites
and
actions
be
so
abhominable
.
Marius
the
great
Captaine
of
Rome
was
woont
to
saie
:
That
he
could
not
hear
the
voice
of
Lawes
,
among
the
peales
of
gunnes
,
the
noise
of
drumslats
,
and
sound
of
trumpets
.
The
Pope
,
that
is
so
busie
,
so
occupied
in
bloody
and
Martiall
matters
and
conspiracies
,
hath
no
leisure
to
study
or
hear
or
preach
the
Law
of
God
,
or
to
aduaunce
the
Gospel
of
Peace
in
Christ
Iesus
.
I
haue
,
Right
Honorable
,
entred
into
the
consideration
&
confutation
of
both
these
parts
of
popery
in
other
books
:
but
now
seing
daily
the
present
&
perilous
practises
of
the
later
,
both
here
&
elswher
:
setting
aside
for
the
time
the
first
concerning
the
Pope
&
his
Iesuitical
doctrin
,
I
haue
lately
trauailed
somewhat
in
the
second
,
opening
to
my
countrimen
their
frontick
and
bloody
dealings
,
and
calling
them
by
al
meanes
of
persuasion
,
as
I
could
,
to
conformity
and
due
obedience
to
the
Prince
,
and
to
the
loue
of
their
owne
country
,
for
the
common
safety
and
preseruation
of
vs
all
,
in
body
and
soul
.
Alas
,
who
would
haue
thought
that
there
should
haue
beene
any
need
to
haue
either
spoken
or
written
of
this
matter
to
English
Subiects
,
liuing
so
long
vnder
a
gratious
,
&
peaceable
gouernement
:
farre
passing
the
times
past
,
and
the
like
not
to
be
hoped
for
after
it
?
Who
would
haue
thought
that
any
Englishe
and
Christian
man
woulde
haue
once
muttered
or
murmured
against
such
a
Prince
?
for
countries
sake
to
bee
loued
,
for
religion
to
be
obeied
,
for
sundry
graces
and
gifts
to
bee
woondred
at
,
for
all
these
good
blessings
of
God
by
hir
to
vs
,
to
be
honored
?
Are
there
yet
foolish
frogs
,
begging
of
the
Romish
Capitoline
Iupiter
either
a
blocke
to
crush
them
,
or
a
Storcke
to
deuoure
them
?
Though
by
Gods
appointment
the
Oliue
is
content
to
be
ouer
vs
with
her
fatnes
,
&
the
fig
with
her
sweetenesse
,
and
the
vine
with
her
fruitfulnesse
:
yet
wee
are
not
content
to
haue
them
,
but
only
Rhamnus
,
or
a
bramble
good
for
nothing
but
to
burn
and
consume
vs
.
Christs
crosse
,
Iesus
of
Nazareth
,
King
of
Iewes
?
Or
can
there
be
found
yet
an
Esau
,
that
will
say
in
his
heart
,
The
daies
of
mourning
for
my
father
will
come
shortlie
:
then
wil
I
slaie
my
brother
Iacob
?
I
will
make
awaie
with
the
mother
of
the
Lande
,
and
the
godly
brethren
too
?
And
must
wee
after
the
inuention
,
yea
the
fruition
of
wheate
,
and
sweet
corne
,
returne
with
the
old
world
,
ad
glandes
,
to
Akornes
:
as
in
the
late
time
of
Queene
Marie
?
The
Religion
published
by
her
Maiesty
offendeth
them
:
And
can
this
Romish
Religion
being
so
stained
with
bloode
,
as
I
haue
declared
,
please
them
?
Is
there
no
remedy
,
but
to
turn
the
blessing
of
the
Prophet
Esay
,
by
a
contrary
Text
into
a
curse
?
For
remedy
,
and
some
redresse
against
these
bloud-suckers
of
Rome
,
In
this
copulatiue
,
Ambrose
.
This
becommeth
Christians
to
wish
for
the
tranquillity
of
peace
,
and
for
the
constancy
in
the
faith
and
in
the
truth
.
And
in
the
same
place
:
Rogamus
,
If
wee
deale
thus
duetifully
towardes
God
,
and
obediently
towardes
our
Prince
,
then
will
God
mercifully
and
mightily
defend
both
Prince
and
vs
.
No
diuelish
witchcraft
,
no
Ruffians
dag
or
dagger
,
no
inuasion
of
forreiners
,
no
craft
or
art
of
any
enemies
,
no
nor
this
seuen-headed
beast
shall
annoy
Prince
,
Peare
,
or
People
.
He
can
,
he
will
send
twelue
legions
of
Angels
.
The
Kingdome
of
Englande
,
shal
be
the
Kingdome
of
God
:
and
that
God
is
alone
,
&
must
be
the
Protector
&
King
of
it
.
If
our
Prince
and
Nobles
,
and
Subiects
wil
sincerely
serue
him
:
we
shall
haue
the
protection
of
our
lord
,
Iulius
Caesar
within
three
years
perished
,
I
haue
troubled
your
honour
with
many
words
,
vttering
my
wishes
to
my
countrimen
,
and
declaring
to
you
the
argument
intreated
of
in
these
Sermons
.
I
haue
displaied
the
new
Monster
lately
receiued
,
&
daily
rising
and
raging
against
vs
.
And
as
in
this
generall
diuision
of
Christendom
,
euery
nation
and
faction
prouide
their
Armour
:
And
as
your
L.
and
the
whole
body
of
the
right
honorable
Counsel
make
euery
way
a
politick
preparation
,
and
euery
man
seeketh
his
piece
,
&
his
furniture
:
So
I
,
hauing
no
weapon
,
but
only
my
tongue
and
pen
,
haue
thought
good
in
my
calling
,
after
my
weak
&
simple
sort
,
to
fight
with
the
helpe
of
them
both
,
against
this
huge
Monster
,
and
against
all
enimies
.
When
I
beganne
first
to
expound
this
Text
of
Scripture
in
Ianuarie
last
,
at
Oxford
,
and
proceeded
in
it
there
and
in
some
places
of
Hamptonshire
,
&
ended
it
at
London
,
at
the
Crosse
in
May
:
I
little
thought
of
printing
it
:
and
so
the
matter
out
of
my
heade
,
and
almost
out
of
my
papers
,
I
fear
my
short
,
and
vnperfect
notes
haue
brought
foorth
an
vnperfect
,
&
vntimely
fruit
.
Howesoeuer
it
is
,
I
must
commit
it
now
to
the
world
,
and
appeale
to
your
Lordships
patronage
for
it
.
I
had
rather
offend
by
this
temerity
and
negligence
,
than
to
incurre
the
suspicion
of
silence
and
neutrality
,
knowing
the
danger
and
penalty
of
Solons
lawe
,
if
in
this
common
trouble
;
I
am
bold
to
offer
to
your
Lordship
as
a
poore
scholasticall
New-yeares-gift
,
&
as
a
gratulation
of
your
prosperous
returne
,
and
as
a
smal
signification
of
my
bounden
duty
to
you
,
my
very
good
Lord
,
and
a
speciall
Patrone
of
our
Vniuersity
,
and
a
friend
of
this
cause
which
Dauid
began
,
and
I
haue
rudely
prosecuted
and
ended
.
The
Lord
Iesus
protect
our
noble
Dauid
,
your
honor
,
the
honorable
Counsaile
,
&
the
whole

,

&c.
THE
FIRST
SERMON
.
IN
the
beginning
of
this
Chapiter
wee
haue
Saul
persecuting
,
and
Dauid
persecuted
;
the
Ziphians
discouering
him
,
Dauid
his
espies
,
Saul
sleeping
with
his
souldiours
,
the
comming
of
Dauid
with
Abishai
to
Sauls
campe
in
the
night
:
and
nowe
in
this
part
of
Scripture
we
heare
the
conference
and
disputation
of
Abishai
and
Dauid
.
The
argument
and
question
is
,
whether
Saul
the
king
may
bee
lawefully
slaiue
by
them
his
subiectes
or
no
?
As
the
persons
are
two
,
A
matter
in
mine
opinion
most
necessary
for
Preachers
to
entreate
of
,
and
for
vs
all
to
heare
and
consider
of
in
these
daies
,
when
subiects
vtterly
forgette
their
duety
and
reuerence
,
which
they
owe
to
the
sacred
Maiesty
of
Princes
,
and
to
all
lawfull
Magistrates
.
A
thing
long
since
prophecyed
of
by
God
in
his
holy
word
,
and
in
al
ages
detested
of
the
better
sort
.
Iesaiah
among
other
things
prophecieth
that
the
boy
shal
presume
against
the
Auncient
,
&
the
vile
against
the
honorable
.
Paul
also
prophecieth
of
these
later
times
,
shall
bee
fierce
,
enimies
of
the
good
,
traitors
,
headdy
,
high-minded
,
The
hainousnes
hereof
,
both
Heathen
and
Christians
haue
abhorred
.
The
mistocles
a
notable
captaine
,
being
banished
from
his
vnthankeful
country
by
the
Athenians
,
&
entertained
of
Xerxes
King
of
the
Persians
,
was
willed
,
according
to
his
promise
,
to
subdue
Graecia
vnto
his
Empire
:
but
rather
then
hee
woulde
betray
his
country
,
hee
dranke
vp
a
bole
ful
of
Buls
bloud
,
Vsthazares
is
beheadded
,
not
for
any
treason
,
or
crime
in
the
Kings
court
,
but
that
he
is
a
Christian
,
and
refusing
to
obey
the
king
,
cannot
abide
to
deny
his
God
.
So
much
was
the
very
name
of
a
traitor
abhorred
of
them
.
Now
,
seeing
the
enormity
of
the
fault
,
&
necessity
of
the
time
,
giue
me
leaue
to
speake
to
you
as
Bernarde
once
did
in
the
like
case
vnto
the
Romanes
,
Eugenius
.
When
the
heade
asketh
,
dooth
not
the
toung
cry
for
al
the
partes
of
the
body
,
that
they
ake
also
with
the
head
?
Ego
corporis
membrum
minimum
.
As
he
,
so
I
,
the
smallest
and
simplest
member
of
our
bodie
,
craue
leaue
to
vtter
our
common
griefe
,
for
the
heade
and
Soueraigne
of
this
Realm
,
of
late
without
cause
troubled
and
assaulted
by
open
and
priuy
practises
of
such
as
ought
to
haue
been
true
subiectes
,
and
faithful
countrymen
.
And
for
this
purpose
haue
I
chosen
this
parcell
of
Scripture
,
in
the
which
wee
may
first
learne
the
wickednes
it selfe
in
the
person
of
Abishai
,
and
next
in
the
person
of
Dauid
a
controulment
and
a
confutation
of
it
,
as
in
the
Sermons
following
shall
be
declared
.
Touching
the
first
,
when
hath
there
not
bin
an
Abishai
?
Naie
some
worse
then
Abishai
,
seekers
and
suckers
of
bloud
?
God
hath
deliuered
thine
enimy
into
thyne
hand
this
day
,
and
he
saw
both
Saul
,
and
Abner
,
and
the
people
in
a
deadly
sleepe
,
and
promiseth
at
one
blow
to
destroy
him
,
but
the
others
doe
far
differ
from
Abishai
,
especially
in
the
maner
howe
they
doe
it
,
and
in
the
causes
why
they
doe
it
.
The
manner
is
,
Brother
,
let
vs
goe
walke
into
the
field
;
but
a
good
beginning
in
shewe
,
brought
an
il
ende
,
according
to
that
which
is
written
by
this
our
Dauid
against
his
false
familiar
friend
,
The
woords
of
his
mouth
were
softer
than
butter
,
yet
war
was
in
his
hart
:
his
woordes
were
more
gentle
then
oyle
,
yet
they
were
swordes
.
And
also
by
his
Sonne
Salomon
:
A
man
that
flattereth
his
neighbour
,
spreadeth
à
net
for
his
steppes
.
This
Cainicall
course
followed
Absalom
,
Romish
Absalom
Pius
Quintus
speaketh
against
a
Prince
:
Smite
,
kill
,
feare
not
,
for
haue
not
I
commaunded
you
?
Be
bould
therefore
.
Is
not
this
a
strange
father
of
Peace
,
an
Absalom
?
Likewise
Ioab
laid
his
net
against
Amasa
,
Aue
Rabbi
,
Haile
Master
.
secretum
colloquium
ab
eo
petens
,
requesting
secret
conference
with
him
,
and
striketh
:
but
after
two
woundes
receiued
,
the
King
laid
handes
vpon
him
and
siue
him
.
Another
Sarracens
was
suborned
by
the
Sultan
to
kil
Iames
Lusignane
king
of
Cyprus
,
vnder
the
pretense
of
caryeng
letters
:
but
he
missed
,
and
was
tormented
for
it
.
These
flattering
traitours
that
with
this
courtly
or
rather
crafty
curtesie
,
and
Popish
holy-water
,
work
this
cruelty
,
eyther
by
woords
and
insinuations
,
or
by
presents
and
gifts
,
or
by
deliuery
of
letters
,
or
messages
,
or
other
waies
vnder
colour
of
friendshippe
,
the
more
close
they
be
,
the
more
crafty
are
they
,
the
more
priny
,
the
more
perilous
:
for
flattery
is
more
hurtful
then
the
most
cruell
poyson
,
according
to
the
verse
:
Blanditi
a
plusquam
dira
venena
nocent
.
Wherefore
it
were
to
be
wished
,
that
Princes
and
great
personages
would
purge
and
clense
their
Courtes
and
houses
of
such
that
haue
beene
taught
in
the
Schoole
of
Gnato
to
denye
,
to
double
,
&
dissemble
,
and
by
the
lesson
of
Cato
,
Saluta
libenter
,
seeke
not
to
salute
nor
to
saue
,
but
to
slaie
them
.
Take
the
drosse
from
the
siluer
,
and
there
shall
bee
made
a
precious
vessell
for
the
finer
.
Take
awie
the
wicked
from
the
King
,
and
his
throne
shal
be
stablished
in
righteousnesse
.
Out
Dauid
had
his
eies
vpon
the
faithfull
of
the
land
,
that
they
might
dwell
with
him
,
and
vpon
them
that
malk
in
a
perfect
may
,
that
they
might
serue
him
.
There
shall
(
saith
hee
)
no
deceitefull
person
dwell
in
my
house
.
Hee
that
telleth
lies
,
shall
not
remaine
in
my
sight
.
This
faithfulnes
is
first
towardes
God
,
and
then
towardes
the
Princes
and
neighbours
:
this
deceitfulnes
,
flattering
;
glosing
,
temporizing
must
needes
offend
God
,
and
man
:
and
therefore
ought
not
to
be
regarded
.
The
example
of
Constantius
as
it
is
noted
by
Eusebius
found
out
these
vnconstaunt
men-pleasers
,
Now
we
are
to
consider
the
motiues
&
causes
perswading
these
men
to
enter
into
these
high
pointes
of
treacherous
actions
,
Dauid
,
When
the
Prince
studieth
peace
,
and
speaketh
peaceablie
,
they
are
ready
to
fight
.
Their
feete
are
swifte
to
shed
bloode
nay
they
knowe
not
the
waie
of
peace
:
They
will
neither
knowe
nor
haue
peace
.
They
seem
to
be
kinned
to
that
mad
souldiour
,
that
passing
by
the
Church
,
&
hearing
them
pray
for
peace
,
Donanobis
pacem
,
was
angry
with
them
,
Phy
,
quoth
he
,
Peace
?
how
shuld
we
liue
?
Such
a
Prince
Cor.
Agrippa
telleth
of
in
Italy
,
who
being
moued
by
the
said
Agrippa
,
to
take
awaie
that
famous
or
rather
infamous
faction
of
Gibellines
and
Guelphians
in
his
Territory
,
Naie
not
so
,
quoth
hee
,
confessing
plainly
it
was
not
for
his
profit
,
for
that
ther
was
brought
into
his
coffers
yearely
about
twelue
thousand
ducats
by
occasion
of
this
faction
.
This
greedines
is
the
cause
that
many
being
now
become
bankerupts
,
vnthrifty
&
born
to
consume
&
to
spend
the
fruits
of
the
earth
,
think
by
mutations
and
chaunges
to
recouer
,
and
to
licke
themselues
whole
.
This
is
the
cause
,
that
mooueth
some
to
fly
from
their
countrie
,
and
captaines
to
serue
straungers
contrarie
to
the
Law
of
GOD
and
man
.
Nemo
miles
ab
imperatore
extraneo
stipendium
accipit
,
saith
Chrysoftome
.
No
man
taketh
wages
of
a
forraine
king
,
or
Emperor
.
How
much
more
wicked
is
it
,
for
Christians
professing
the
gospel
to
be
in
seruice
vnder
the
conduct
&
banner
of
a
stranger
,
both
in
nation
and
in
religion
?
&
that
for
mony
,
bloud-gilt
,
the
reward
of
Iudas
?
Quidagis
Christiane
,
sidomini
hostem
amicum
habueris
?
what
dost
thou
o
christian
,
what
auaileth
thee
if
thou
hast
the
enemy
of
the
Lord
to
be
thy
friend
?
The
same
Chrysostome
hath
these
words
in
an
homily
De
proditione
&
Iuda
.
There
is
a
third
kind
of
couetousnes
not
of
these
meane
things
,
but
an
insatiable
desire
of
honor
,
principality
,
&
soueraignty
:
Iulius
Caesar
imagining
or
rather
dreaming
of
such
a
thing
,
R.
Holcot
testifieth
,
Effluo
,
transcendo
,
quo
quis
priuatur
babendo
,
Transmigrat
genus
exceditque
homo
qui
nec

:
Turbor
&
affligor
,
perturbor
,
&
vndiquelaedor
.
Meaning
therby
,
that
those
that
wil
be
climing
&
transcendent
,
and
disobedient
and
troublesome
,
must
finde
trouble
and
affliction
themselues
.
Another
motiue
of
these
rebellious
interprises
is
Enuie
&
Ingratitude
.
Liuor
tabific●m
malis
venenum
.
It
is
a
poison
that
gnaweth
&
consumeth
the
vugodly
,
that
cannot
abide
the
happy
estate
by
which
we
enioy
the
gospel
,
&
al
spiriual
consolation
,
by
which
we
haue
the
fruition
of
peace
&
plenly
,
if
our
sinfulnes
&
vnthankfulnes
do
not
abbridge
vs

These
benefites
and
this
repining
cannot
long
continue
togither
by
the
iustice
of
God
and
by
the
course
of
naturall
thinges
.
Too
much
rancknes
beateth
downe
the
corne
,
and
bowes
are
broken
with
the
burden
;
ouermuch
aboundaunce
of
fruite
commeth
not
to
anie
ripenesse
,
as
wise
Seneca
writeth
:
euen
so
our
prosperity
,
I
feare
,
hath
corrupted
some
of
vs
.
and
made
vs
forgetful
of
our
duty
towards
God
and
our
Prince
.
Gregory
the
great
,
when
Popes
were
not
so
great
,
but
did
acknowledge
the
soueraignty
of
Princes
ouer
them
,
did
wel
confesse
writing
to
one
Theodore
,
Howe
great
benefites
I
haue
receiued
from
Almighty
God
,
&
from
my
most
soueraign
lord
,
the
Emperour
,
my
toung
is
not
able
to
expresse
.
Would
to
god
our
Gregorians
,
folowers
,
&
fautors
of
the
Pope
,
wold
haue
such
meditations
.
Another
motiue
,
and
cause
of
these
stirs
,
But
there
is
a
difference
betweene
the
true
and
false
Religion
.
The
Religion
of
Ieroboam
was
a
false
,
and
caluish
Religion
,
contrary
to
the
Religion
of
the
house
of
Dauid
:
and
therefore
he
made
two
calues
of
goold
,
the
one
in
Bethel
,
the
other
in
Dan
,
made
Priestes
of
the
dregges
and
rascalles
of
the
people
,
Romish
Abishai
,
that
is
the
Father
of
bribes
,
and
giftes
,
by
corruption
a
taker
,
and
giuer
,
inueigling
,
and
perswading
the
Potentates
,
and
people
of
the
world
,
to
rebell
,
and
to
murther
the
Lordes
true
annointed
,
to
rise
,
and
to
take
weapon
against
their
owne
naturall
,
and
lawefull
Prince
.
It
is
hee
that
blesseth
,
and
consecrateth
with
holy
water
,
and
incense
a
sworde
,
In
defensionem
S.
Romanae
Ecclesiae
:
for
the
defense
of
the
holy
Church
of
Rome
,
and
for
the
reuenge
of
the
Popes
enemies
,
and
that
in
the
solemne
feast
of
the
Birth
of
Christ
:
which
hee
fendeth
abroade
as
a
present
to
some
most
Christian
,
or
most
Noble
Prince
,
for
the
protection
of
his
Catholicke
Church
,
against
the
true
Catholicke
faith
of
Christ
,
which
is
not
without
a
mystery
,
Al
power
is
giuen
vnto
me
in
heauen
and
in
earth
.
And
in
another
place
:
You
shall
haue
dominion
from
sea
to
sea
.
Behold
what
a
fisher
of
men
Peters
successour
is
,
that
fisheth
for
the
dominion
of
all
the
woorld
:
all
is
fish
that
commeth
to
his
nette
,
where
with
he
draweth
to
himselfe
that
which
is
properly
and
truely
spoken
of
Christ
by
Dauid
:
vnles
hee
will
also
haue
that
which
followeth
,
That
al
kings
shal
adore
,
and
worshippe
him
,
and
that
his
kingdome
is
eternall
and
before
the
Sonne
:
But
he
wil
prooue
in
the
ende
,
to
bee
that
foolish
fisher
in
Theocritus
,
that
dreamed
he
had
caught
a
golden
fish
,
and
waking
,
he
got
not
so
much
as
a
frog
.
It
is
that
Abishai
,
that
likewise
scattereth
abroade
in
Lent
his
consecrated
golden
roses
to
some
Princes
,
and
also
sendeth
to
the
captains
or
standerd-bearers
of
the
Church
of
Rome
,
Carion
,
Cuspinian
,
and
in
Abbat
Vrspergensis
.
Who
rightly
considering
such
factes
,
dooth
not
lament
and
detest
them
,
which
seeme
to
bee
signes
and
certaine
prognostications
of
the
ruine
of
the
Church
?
S.
Maries
Church
at
Rome
,
R.
Volaterrane
reporteth
to
be
among
Sontiates
a
people
of
France
,
whose
king
hath
flatterers
,
called
by
them
in
french
Silodures
,
by
the
Graecians
Euolimi
(
or
rather
by
transposition
of
letters
,
Euomili
(
sweet-tounged

,
or
fair-spoken
men
,
who
alwaies

whether
he

he
delighteth
in
:
if
he
lie
,
they
lie
,
or
if
he
dy
,
they
dy
with
him
.
Euen
so
the
Popes
adherentes
and
Silodures
are
at
his
beck
,
to
go
,
to
run
,
to
flee
,
to
execute
al
his
commaundements
vpon
any
Prince
in
the
world
,
in
such
sort
as
he
prescribeth
.
I
told
you
of
Gregories
flattering
factour
,
that

An other

Cardinal
Pole

Popes
penne-man

Queene

by
Pius
Quintus

his

Such
a
Catholicke
faith
must
be
maintained
by
such
Catholicke
meanes
,
namely
by
open
rebellions
,
priuie
practises
in
a
Catholicke
and
vniuersall
manner
,
that
is
by
all
vnlawfull
meanes
.
A
peece
&
a
part
of
this
religion
is
a
Vow
,
not
of
forced
chastity
,
but
of
voluntary
cruelty
,
which
the
Pope
giueth
presumptuously
,
and
the
Popelings
take
foolishly

Such
there
haue

Oftentimes
the
most
part
of
men
bind
themselues
with
an
oth
,
and
when
they
themselues
knowe
that
it
should
not
haue
been
promised
,
yet
they
doe
it
in
respect
of
their
oth

Is
not
their

Law
contrary
to
this
?
Is
not
there
forbidden
euery
oth
that
is
the
hande
of
iniquity

And
is
it
not
an
vniust
band
when
wee
sweare
the

of
Princely

No

O
blessed
Saint
Peter
,
saieth
Gregory
the
seuenth
,
I
depose
Henry
the
fourth
from
al
Imperial
and
regal
authority
,
who
hath
lifted
vp
his
hande
too
boldly
and
rashly
against
thy
Church
,
and
I
doe
release
his
loial
leige
people
of
their
oth
.
You
haue
heard
of
Thomas
Becket
our
countryman
a
man
like
Mercury
in
Aristophanes
,
quàm
ad
confirmandam
fidem
promptior
,
a
better
Schoolemaster
of
periury
,
then
of
obedience
:
and
this
prodition
was
such
a
religion
,
that
by
the
Monkes
of
Caunterbury
it
was
praised
and
approued
.
This
is
a
right
Supremacy
,
to
doe
and
vndo
what
he
listeth
:
this
is
the
pride
and
the
cruelty
of
the
Romish
Abishai
against
the
Lordes
annointed
,
not
fearing
to
violate
the
maiesty
of
Princes
,
to
breake
oathes
,
to
teach
disobedience
,
and
wilful
periuries
,
and
al
this
hee
may
doe
absolutely
by
his
new
religion
,
and
large
commission
.
You
vnderstand
by
the
premisses
the
effect
of
the
first
part
,
&
the
meaning
of
the
first
person
Abishai
:
al
tending
to
the
death
of
the
Lordes
annointed
.
You
vnderstand
the
predecessours
and
successours
of
Abishai
in
number
to
bee
many
,
in
maner
of
attempting
to
be
violent
&
fierce
,
or
else
hypocriticall
and
flattering
,
and
the
causes
mouing
them
to
be
either
couetousnes
catching
,
either
ambition
aspiring
,
eyther
enuy
maligning
,
either

pretensed

such

As
I
reported
before
in
the
beginning
out
of
Bernard
to
the
Romans
,
so
in
the
conclusion
out
of
the
same
Epistle
,
I
speak
to
the
Romanists
:
You
foolish
Romanists
,
doe
you
neither
iudge
nor
discern
that
which
is
honest
?
Doe
you
disgrace
and
dishonor
as
much
as
in
you
is
your
owne
head
,
and
the
head
of
vs
al
,
for
whome
you
ought
not
to
spare
your
own
necks
,
if
need
should
require
?
I
end
with
this
good
note
of
the
saide
Bernard
.
I
knewe
once
(
saith
hee
)
in
Babylon
at
the
voice
of
one
young
man
,
that
al
the
people
which
were
deceiued
by
the
vniust
Seniors
of
the
city
to
condemne
Susanna
,
did
returne
to
Iudgement
,
and
reuerse
it
,
and
so
that
innocent
bloud
was
saued
that
daie
.
I
pray
God
,
that
you
of
whom
I
conceiue
well
,
and
others
who
may
be
suspected
elsewhere
,
may
harken
with
indifferent
eares
,
if
not
at
the
voice
of
Daniel
,
yet
at
our
dayly
motion
,
that
you
wil
auoide
the
deuise
of
Abishai
,
that
you
wil
not
be
seduced
by
the
false
ould
iudges
of
Israel
,
that
you
wil
not
condemne
our
Susanna
rashly
and
without
al
cause
,
but
abhor
al
wicked
conspiracies
,
mutinies
,
practises
,
against
her
Maiesty
,
whom
the
Lorde
preserue
many
years
among
vs
,
that
she
may
attaine
that
happines
which
wise
Thales
spake
of
,
Principis
faelicitas
,
vt
senex
secundum
naturam
in
suo
lectulo
moriatur
:

grant

SAM.

And
Dauid
said
to
Abishai
,
Destroy
him
not
:
for
who
can
laie
his
hand
on
the
Lords
annointed
,
and
bee
guiltlesse
,
&c.
THE
SECOND
SERMON
.
HERODIAN
an
Historiographer
complaineth
that
it
was
an
old
disease
among
the
Graecians
,
Galathians
:
The
woorks
of
the
flesh
are
hatred
&
debate
,
wrath
,
contentions
,
dissensions
,
sects
,
enuy
,
murders
,
al
of
one
cognation
and
kinred
.
This
sedition
is
,
and
euer
hath
bin
not
only
in
Greece
,
but
by
sundry
makebates
at
al
times
and
in
al
places
,
by
Abishai
in
Iury
as
you
lately
heard
conspiring
against
King
Saul
,
and
by
others
against
Dauid
himselfe
as
he
thus
lamenteth
:
Mine
enemies
speake
against
me
,
&
they
that
lay
wait
for
my
soul
,
take
their
counsail
together
saying
:
God
hath
forsaken
him
,
persecute
&
take
him
,
for
ther
is
none
to
deliuer
him
.
I
haue
also
declared
that
the
Romanists
&
their
Prelats
haue
bin
Graecians
in
this
behalfe
,
consenting
with
Abishai
against
Saul
,
nay
Dauid
,
and
made
much
trouble
in
the
common-weal
&
Christian
churches
,
〈◊〉
〈◊〉
〈◊〉
〈◊〉
〈◊〉
&
they
haue
wasted
our
Greece
,
most
parts
in
christendom
,
absoluing
al
ecclesiastical
&
laymen
from
their
othes
made
to
their
lawful
Princes
,
and
presenting
abroad
their
Roses
,
their
banners
,
their
swords
consecrated
or
rather
execrated
to
such
,
as
shuld
betray
&
persecute
the
good
.
This
cruel
deuise
of
betraieng
godly
gouernors
was
here
of
Abishai
,
but
not
of
him
alone
,
but
an
inuention
of
the
diuel
himself
,
who
seing
Gods
work
to
go
forward
,
euer
laboreth
to
disturb
,
and
to
throw
it
down
:
Semper
Diabolus
bono
operi
imminet
,
vbique
gradientibus
ponit
laqueos
.
You
remember
the
Sermon
of
Abishai
,
I
neede
not
repeate
it
:
nowe
the
second
person
must
be
produced
,
namelie
Dauid
replying
to
Abishai
.
This
aunswere
conteineth
these
three
sub-diuisions
,
At
this
tyme
onely
of
the
first
,
and
so
farre
as
I
may
for
the
time
,
The
first
in
these
words
,
Destroy
him
not
:
and
this
was
alwaies
the
opinion
of
Dauid
to
be
good
to
the
bad
,
to
bee
a
friende
to
his
enemies
,
as
in
the
case
of
Shimei
who
railed
and
cursed
him
,
and
called
him
a
man
of
blood
,
and
a
man
of
Belial
,
a
murtherer
and
wicked
man
.
And
here
againe
the
same
Abishai
the
sonne
of
Zeruiah
folowing
his
hoat
spirit
,
Saul
in
a
caue
,
and
though
his
seruants
and
frinds
told
him
that
the
Lorde
had
deliuered
his
enemie
into
his
hand
,
he
spared
his
body
,
and
only
for
a
token
cut
off
the
lap
of
his
garment
priuilie
,
and
euen
for
that
hee
was
touched
and
striken
in
heart
.
For
who
can
lay
his
hand
vpon
the
Lordes
annointed
,
and
be
guiltlesse
?
Saul
is
the
annointed
of
the
Lord
,
In
the
person
of
the
Prince
are
to
be
considered
two
things
,
his
manhood
,
&
Princehood
.
Aliter
Rex
seruit
,
quia
homo
est
,
aliter
quia
etiam
Rex
est
:
one
way
a
King
serueth
because
he
is
a
man
,
another
way
also
because
he
is
a
King
:
so
that
he
beareth
&
representeth
a
double
person
.
Who
so
sheddeth
mans
blood
,
by
man
shall
his
blood
be
shed
,
for
in
the
Image
of
God
hath
he
made
him
.
Moses
hath
made
a
Law
general
:
Thou
maist
not
kil
.
And
yet
not
so
general
,
imperij
deserti
atque
contempti
,
as
the
saide
Augustine
teacheth
in
another
place
of
the
same
City
of
GOD
.
What
if
Abraham
should
haue
killed
his
owne
sonne
Isaac
?
De

Though
Moses
killed
the
Aegyptian
,
Samuel
Agag
,
and
Peter
Ananias
and
Saphira
without
sword
,
with
a
worde
,
yet
the
specialties
are
not
generall
rules
for
priuate
men
against
men
:
according
to
the
sayeng
,
Priuilegium
non
est
lex
:
A
priuilege
is
no
law
:
It
is
said
of
the
Magistrates
rightly
,
by
Hierom
vpon
Ieremy
:
To
punish
murderers
,
Church-robbers
,
poisoners
,
is
not
shedding
of
bloud
,
but
the
ministerie
of
Lawes
.
It
is
saide
to
Magistrates
,
and
to
priuate
men
by
Ieremy
in
the
same
Chapter
,
speaking
to
the
King
of
Iuda
:
Doe
no
violence
,
nor
shedde
innocent
bloode
in
this
place
.
These
wordes
,
as
Hierom
expoundeth
them
,
forbid
not
only
the
Kings
court
,
but
Episcopos
,
&
socios
eorum
presbyteros
:
al
Bishops
,
and
their
fellowes
the
Ministers
,
Deacons
,
and
all
the
order
Ecclesiasticall
,
or
else
they
leese
their
dignity
.
What
shal
we
saie
then
of
the
Byshoppe
of
Byshoppes
,
that
draweth
his
sword
as
the
foole
dooth
his
wodden
dagger
against
euery
body
,
and
for
euery
trifle
?
No
man
,
publique
,
or
priuate
,
secular
,
or
Ecclesiastical
,
inferiour
or
superiour
,
ought
without
crime
,
or
cause
,
to
put
to
death
any
man
.
It
is
said
to
Peter
,
and
to
Peters
successour
the
Pope
,
Put
vppe
thy
sworde
into
his
sheath
,
for
all
that
take
the
sword
,
shal
perish
with
the
sword
.
If
Peter
did
il
in
cutting
off
an
eare
of
a
seruant
,
how
much
more
doe
they
offend
that
cutte
off
the
head
?
And
if
the
seruant
may
not
bee
striken
by
Peter
,
howe
can
they
escape
that
strike
the
Master
,
the
Lord
,
or
Lady
of
the
land
?
And
if
Christ
found
fault
with
his
seruaunt
fighting
in
his
owne
quarel
,
how
much
more
wil
he
be
angry
with
them
that
take
weapon
against
his
Annointed
Prince
,
his
lieuetenaunt
in
the
earth
,
nay
,
against
himselfe
in
defense
of
his
aduersary
and
Antichrist
?
For
nowe
consider
with
mee
the
reason
of
Dauid
,
Aiax
,
That
Cowardes
did
get
the
victorie
by
God
,
he
would
winne
whether
GOD
would
or
no.
Or
is
it
a
matter
of
force
or
fortune
?
No
,
that
was
the
desperate
saying
of
Antiochus
〈◊〉
〈◊〉
〈◊〉
〈◊〉
〈◊〉
Let
him
take
the
kingdome
,
to
whome
fortune
,
or
the
sword
shal
giue
it
.
Or
dooth
policy
and
gouernement
of
the
world
,
or
the
worlde
it selfe
consist
of
the
Sunne
beames
:
That
might
be
the
fantasie
of
Democritus
,
that
scoffed
at
all
things
.
Or
is
it
the
ordinaunce
of
Iupiter
or
any
heathen
God
:
No
,
for
so
dreamed
Homer
,
Nursed
vp
and
fostered
by
Iupiter
:
and
Hesiod
,
that
wrote
,
the
King
of
Kings
,
the
Lord
of
Lordes
.
So
is
the
Prince
desined
of
Saint
Paul
to
the
Romanes
:
and
by
Iohn
Salisberg
lib.
4.
Polycrat.
A
Prince
is
a
publike
power
,
&
in
earth
a
certain
image
of
the
diuine
power
.
Therefore
as
before
I
proued
him
to
bee
a
double
person
,
so
is
he
now
a
double
Image
of
God
,
for
hee
was
made
after
the
Image
of
God
,
and
by
office
representeth
God
may
:
further
,
he
is
a
God
himselfe
.
God
is
God
by
nature
,
the
Prince
by
name
,
God
by
propriety
,
the
Prince
by
grace
:
So
God
himselfe
saith
,
Yee
are
Gods
,
and
the
children
of
the
highest
:
And
the
same
Dauid
in
the
same
place
,
God
standeth
in
the
congregation
of
Gods
:
he
iudgeth
among
Gods
,
quia
ipse
est
solus
qui
Deos
faciat
:
It
is
he
alone
that
maketh
Gods
,
as
Tertullian
expoundeth
,
aduersus
Hermogenem
.
Euen
Saul
himselfe
is
named
here
the
annointed
of
the
Lorde
,
and
so
are
all
other
Potentates
that
are
by
their
vices
euil
men
,
yet
by
office
the
ordinance
of
God
:
By
me
Rulers
raigne
:
The
hypocrits
rule
not
without
him
:
And
God
himselfe
saith
in
Osc
,
I
gaue
thee
a
King
in
myne
anger
,
and
tooke
him
awaie
in
my
wrath
.
Optatus
:
Paul
teacheth
(
saith
he
)
not
without
cause
,
that
we
must
pray
for
Kings
,
and
powers
,
although
the
Emperour
were
such
a
one
as
liued
heathenishly
.
And
Augustine
:
Wee
call
them
happy
Princes
,
if
they
commaund
iust
thinges
&c.
And
if
they
make
their
power
as
a
seruaunt
and
hand-maid
to
his
maiesty
,
especially
in
setting
forth
his
honour
.
And
in
another
Chapiter
,
Let
vs
not
giue
the
power
of
bestowing
kingdomes
,
and
Empires
to
any
,
but
onely
to
the
true
God
:
He
that
gaue
authority
to
Marius
,
gaue
it
to
Caius
Caesar
:
He
that
gaue
it
to
Augustus
,
gaue
it
to
Nero
:
He
that
gaue
it
to
the
Vespasians
,
either
the
Father
,
or
the
Sonne
,
most
sweete
and
milde
Emperours
,
hee
gaue
it
also
to
Domitian
,
à
most
cruell
man
.
And
least
I
should
passe
through
al
,
he
that
gaue
it
to
Constantine
the
Christian
,
gaue
it
vnto
Iulian
the
Renigate
.
And
why
are
the
bad
as
wel
as
the
good
aduanced
?
The
fame
Austine
against
the
Manichees
giueth
two
reasons
hereof
:
It
is
not
vniust
that
wicked
men
receaue
power
to
hurt
,
both
that
the
patience
of
the
good
may
be
tried
,
and
the
wickednes
of
the
euil
punished
.
Heereby
the
Prince
and
the
people
may
learne
these
notes
.
In
that
the
Princes
are
called
Gods
,
they
must
serue
God
,
Sextus
Aurelius
Victor
testifieth
in
his
Epitome
.
This
comfort
gaue
Bernard
both
to
King
,
and
to
Pope
:
to
Lewes
the
King
of
Fraunce
,
thus
:
The
Kingdoms
of
the
earth
,
&
the
Laws
of
Kingdomes
do
then
indeed
stand
sound
,
&
stable
to
their
Lordes
,
if
they
doe
not
withstand
the
ordinaunces
and
decrees
of
God
.
To
the
Pope
Eugenius
thus
:
I
haue
read
in
à
wise
man
,
that
hee
is
not
a
valiaunt
man
,
whose
courage
&
spirit
doth
not
encrease
,
when
his
case
is
most
hard
:
but
I
say
,
a
faithful
man
must
more
trust
when
the
scourges
hang
ouer
him
.
Therefore
the
Gods
of
the
earth
,
if
they
wil
be
preserued
by
God
,
with
al
trembling
and
feare
must
serue
God
:
Now
let
vs
consider
beeing
inferiours
our
note
,
Touch
not
mine
annointed
,
my
Christes
,
saith
God
.
They
haue
not
cast
away
thee
,
but
me
,
that
I
should
not
raigne
ouer
them
,
saith
God
to
Samuel
.
Although
this
might
suffice
for
the
vnfoulding
&
opening
of
the
Text
,
&
of
the
reason
of
Dauid
against
such
Abishais
,
The
Law
of

might
instruct

In

the
Law
of
Moses
,
although
there
was
much
violence
&
tyrannie
by
Cain
,
Nimrod
,
&
others
,
yet
naturallie
there
was
a
detestacion
of
this
shedding
of
bloude
.
Some
of
the
brethren
of
Ioseph
enuied
his
parti-coloured
coate
,
Let
vs
not
kill
him
:
shedde
not
bloude
,
put
him
into
a
pitte
in
the
wildernes
,
lay
no
handes
vppon
him
,
minding
to
restore
him
to
his
father
againe
:
Iudas
although
he
was
a
right
Iudas
,
predecessor
to
Iudas
the
trayterous
scholer
of
Christ
,
gaue
a
sentence
meete
for
Iudas
,
but
better
then
others
his
brethren
gaue
,
that
he
should
be
sold
to
the
Ismaelites
:
for
,
He
is
our
brother
,
and
our
fleshe
,
and
so
agreed
to
sell
him
to
the
Midianites
.
The

coloured

,
and
that
he
was
torn

were
the
Magistrates
in
the
time
of
Peter
and
Paul
,
but
heathen
,
and
tyrants
,
as
Nero
and
such
other
?
And
yet
Paul
exhorteth
euery
soule
to
be
subiect
to
the
higher
powers
:
and
whosoeuer
resisteth
the
power
,
resisteth
the
ordinance
of
God
.
If
al
the
worlde
should
coniure
against
me
,
and
sweare
mee
to
attempt
anie
thing
against
the
Maiesty
of
the
King
,
yet
would
I
feare
God
,
neither
durst
I
rashlie
offend
the
King
ordained
by
him
,
neither
am
I
ignoraunt
where
I
haue
read
,
He
that
resisteth
the
power
,
resisteth
the
ordinance
of
God
.
Hee
is
the
minister
of
God
for
thy
good
:
we
may
lead
a
quiet
and
a
peaceable
life
vnder
them
in
al
godlines
and
honesty
:
Gouernours
are
sent
for
the
punishment
of
euill
doers
:
and
for
the
praise
of
them
that
doe
wel
.
Chrysostome
sheweth
the
commodities
of
this
politicke
gouernment
:
In
that
there
are
principalities
,
in
that
some
commaund
and
some
obey
,
and
in
that
al
things
are
not
turned
vpside
downe
by
fortune
and
chaunce
,
and
the
people
are
not
tosted
hither
and
thither
,
I
affirm
it
to
be
the
work
of
the
wisedome
of
God
.
And
hee
saith
,
it
is
for
the
auoiding
of
discordes
and
dissensions
in
these
words
:
Because
the
equality
of
honour
and
state
bringeth
in
commonly
fighting
and
braules
,
God
hath
ordeined
many
principalities
and
many
subiections
,
namely
of
the
husband
and
the
wife
,
of
the
sonne
and
of
the
father
,
of
the
ould
man
and
the
young
,
of
the
seruant
and
of
the
free
,
of
the
Prince
and
the
subiect
,
of
the
schoole-maister
and
the
scholer
:
he
concludeth
thus
:
Innumera
bona
&c.
Infinite
commodities
come
to
cities
by
Magistrates
,
which
if
you
take
away
,
al
things
wil
come
to
wreck
.
Now
let
vs
recount
with
our selues
:
if
this
be
the
blessednes
of
gouernment
vnder
the
heathen
,
how
much
more
are
we
bound
to
God
for
a
Christian
and
godly
regiment
?
Euen
Nabuchadonezer
a
tyraunt
and
infidel
was
to
be
praied
for
:
And
the
Iewes
are
willed
to
pray
for
him
,
&
for
Babylon
:
and
to
seeke
the
peace
of
that
City
where
they
were
captiues
:
for
thus
saith
Ieremie
,
In
the
peace
thereof
shal
you
haue
peace
:
This
is
the
office
and
duty
of
the
Iewes
,
though
straungers
,
toward
the
Babylonians
,
notwithstanding
their
straunge

and
idolatrous
religion

O
that
our
great
soiourner
receiued
in
England
with
fauour
,
Thomas
Walsingham
remembreth
in
his
Chronicle
of
three
vnkind
guests
,
a
Mouse
in
a
wallet
,
a
Serpent
in
ones
bosome
,
and
fier
in
the
lap
:
Nay
I
might
say
woorse
:
They
passe
some
Serpents
.
In
Aegypt
an
Aspis
or
Serpent
by
nature
learned
this
,
to
shew
friendship
to
a
friend
,
and
an
host
:
for
beeing
brought
vp
in
a
poor
mans
house
,
&
deliuered
of
young-ones
,
and
perceiuing
that
one
of
that
brood
had
with
byting
and
stinging
killed
the
good
mans
Sonne
,
shee
did
sley
al
her
children
,
and
was
neuer
after
seen
in
that
house
.
O
admiranda
Dei
virtus
,
saith
Baptista
Fulgosus
:
O
wounderful
power
and
vertue
of
God!
A
cruel
Serpent
towards
her
host
would
shewe
her selfe
thankfull
,
euen
with
the
death
of
her
younglings
,
and
with
her
own
discommodity
:
and
a
man
,
Theodotus
Chius
Schoole-master
to
Ptolomeie
in
the
Art
of
Rhetorik
,
agreed
to
neither
of
them
:
For
if
they
receiued
him
,
they
should
haue
Caesar
an
enemy
:
if
they
should
refuse
him
,
it
woulde
turne
to
some
reproch
to
them
,
and
bee
offensiue
to
Pompeie
.
Wherefore
the
best
is
(
quoth
he
)
to
dispatch
him
,
adding
(
as
Plutarch
saith
)
merily
,
〈◊〉

Dead

neither

Romans
,
as
he
was
double
,
and
trayterous
in
heart
,
so
with
wild
horses
his
body
was
rent
,
and
diuided
:
where
Tullus
confesseth

that

Paulus

saith
,
I
passe
ouer

Nearchus

Dion

imprisoned
by
Domitian
.
What
then
deserue
such
as
commit
this
heynous
act
against
their
milde
and
mercifull
Prince
?
Surely
no
mercy
,
being
mercilesse
themselues
,
yea
more
cruel
than
Tygres
.
I
will
adde
in
the
number
of
these
heathen
one
Turk
.
There
was
in
Constantinople
a
great
rich
citizen
,
who
taking
snuffe
against
his
Emperour
,
came
priuily
to
Mahomet
,
then
intending
to
besiege
the
city
,
&
made
this
bargaine
with
him
,
that
if
hee
would
let
him
haue
one
of
his
Daughters
to
bee
his
wife
,
with
a
large
dowry
,
one
of
the
gates
of
the
city
should
be
at
his
commaundement
.
The
Turkish
tyrant
agreeth
,
the
gate
is
opened
,
and
after
the
cruell
massacre
,
hee
demaundeth
his
reward
.
Meruisti
(
quoth
the
tyrant
)
you
haue
wel
deserued
it
,
and
commaundeth
a
great
masse
of
gould
to
be
brought
to
giue
him
:
but
because
thou
doost
aske
my
Daughter
with
a
dowry
,
being
thy selfe
a
Christian
,
thou
must
first
put
off
this
skin
,
and
leaue
this
life
:
and
forthwith
commaundeth
the
officer
to
slea
him
from
top
to
toe
,
and
casteth
on
hote
ashes
with
salt
,
Here
we
may
see
as
in
a
glasse
the
working
of
nature
in
brute
beasts
,
in
naturall
men
and
others
before
the
Law
of
Moses
,
and
in
very
Pagans
,
and
Turkes
,
howe
they
reuerenced
their
masters
,
and
superiours
:
how
they
hated
,
and
plagued
this
horrible
sinne
of
treachery
against
them
:
I
should
proceede
in
the
rest
,
but
I
must
differre
it
.
God
grant
that
we
Christians
,
may
not
be
found
more
vngrateful
,
more
vnthankful
,
and
more
brutish
,
than

O

,
as
Epiphanius
describeth
them
,
latus

they
are
so
begotten
and
so
borne
,
that
by
them

The
moral
and

is
this
:
Reddere

Pro

haue
as
you
haue
heard
,
discoursed
of
the
history
of
Dauid
the
last
day
,
replieng
against
Abishai
:
which
history
Chrysostome
so
liked
,
Exod.

that
he
made
Homilies
of
it
,
and
amplifieth
the
excellent
integritie
,
and
faithfulnes
of
Dauid
towarde
Saul
the
annointed
:
in
that
Dauid
did
this
in
the
oulde
Testament
,
where
some
reuenge
was
in
a
sort
permitted
:
in
that
Dauid
bestowed
benefites
vpon
Saul
,
sparing
him
,
when
hee
might
haue
killed
him
,
Deus
tradidit
illum
in

&c.
God
hath
deliuered
thine
enemy
into
thine
hands
.
Allegant
illi
diuinam
authoritatem
,
as
the
said
Chrysostom
testifieth
in
that
Homily
,
They
alleage
the
authority
of
God
.
Wherefore
once
againe
I
am
to
request
you
,
patiently
to
heare
the
rest
.
I
beganne
to
prooue
the
opinion
of
Dauid
against
Abishai
(
although
many
did
hold
with
Abishai
)
that
it
was
not
lawfull
to
kil
Saul
,
nor
any
the
annointed
of
the
Lord
,
being
contrary
to
the
law
of
nature
and
al
lawes
.
Before
I
enter
into
the
particular
probation
hereof
,
Woe
be
to
thee
that
doest
spoile
:
when
thou
shalt
cease
to
spoile
,
thou
shalt
be
spoiled
:
when
thou
shalt
make
an
end
of
doing
wickedlie
,
they
shall
doe
wickedlie
against
thee
.
Hee
that
diggeth
à
pitte
,
shall
fall
into
it
himselfe
:
and
he
that
casteth
vp
à
stone
on
high
,
it
may
returne
vpon
his
own
pate
.
It
is
the
plaine
case
of
Shimei
,
pronounced
by
the
mouth
of
this
Salomon
,
vpon
this
general
rule
:
Thou
knowest
all
the
wickednes
whereunto
thine
hart
is
priuy
,
that
thou
didst
to
Dauid
my
father
:
The
Lord
therefore
shal
bring
thy
wickednesse
vpon
thine
owne
head
.
Let
al
Shimeians
beware
of
this
strait
and
sharpe
verdict
:
for

Inque

is
not

a

iust
law

that

And

to
you
again

It
is
the
law
,
Quod

expectet
:
Huic
fiet
,
quemadmodum
ipse
fecit
.
Wherfore
as
it
was
said
once
in
Exod.
A
breach
for
à
breach
,
or
à
fracture
for
a
fracture
,
an

so
is
it
also
the
iudgement
of
God
,
a
limine
for
a
limme
,
bloud
for
bloud
,
and
this
is
a
lawe
vniuersal
.
To
return
now
to
our
particulars
,
I
haue
declared
the
law
of
nature
,
how
this
common
law
is
verified
by
creatures
voide
of
reason
,
and
by
men
void
of
religion
:
which
law
of
nature
is
established
by
the
wisedome
of
God
himselfe
,
who
hath
created
and
directed
all
things
in
wisedome
.
They
knowe
to
flie
vpon
theeues
for
their
master
,
and
in
the
night
to
forbid
strangers
to
come
neer
,
and
they
are
ready
to
die
for
their
masters
,
and
oftentimes
,
they
giue
euidence
,
to
conuince
men
guilty
of
muther
:
so
that
their
dum
testimony
hath
bin
credited
for
the
most
part
.
I
reported
before
out
of
the
same
Ambrose
,
that
in
the
suburbs
of
Antiochia
,
in
the
dark
,
a
man
was
slain
,
that
had
a
dog
accompaniing
him
.
And
the
worker
&
minister
of
the
slaughter
was
a
souldiour
,
discouered
by
the
dog
,
who
pursued
as
hee
might
the
reuenge
of
the
enemy
,
because
he
could
not
woork
the
defense
of
his
master
as
he
wold
.
I
omit
the
kinde
nature
of
Bucephalus
,
In
horse
and
mule
there
is
no
vnderstanding
.
But
to
come
from
beasts
to
men
,
from
the
horse
to
the
master
,
Alexander
himselfe
a
natural
man
was
taught
by
his
Master
Aristotle
,
this
supernatural
lesson
,
in
a
certaine
book
written
to
him
:
Quantum

:
As
much
as

can

take
heede
,
that
you
shedde
not
the
blood
of

And
that
Mary
the
sister
of
Moses
himselfe
murmuring
against
her
brother
a
Magistrate
,
was
striken
with
a
leaper
:
that
the
Israelites
for
mumling
,
and
making
mutiny
against
him
their
Captain
were
punished
:
that
Corah
,
Dathan
,
&
Abiram
,
rebelling
against
him
,
the
one
with
fier
,
the
other
with
earthquake
perished
,
with
their
wiues

children

goods

And
that
the
common
people
,
for
saying
to
Moses
,
and
Aaron
,
That
they
had
murdered
the
people
of

were

the
number
of
fourteene

them
that

If
for
thinking

or
speaking
,
and
murmuring
against
the
Magistrats
such
punishment
was
inflicted
,
how
much
more
for
conspiring
the
death
of
a

them
also
take
heed

iustifie

Why
haue
you

slaine
with
a
sworde
,
whereat
the
people
of
the
lande
reioyced
,
and
the
city
was
in
quiet
.
I
pray
God
we
may
haue
the
like
sequel
,
for
the
like
iustice
extended
vpon
our
trayterous
persons
in
these
daies
.
When
King
Assuerus
found
out
by
Hester
his
Queene
vpon
the
information
of
Mardocheus
,
2.1
.
Sam.
31.
Dauids
seueritie
against
other
murderers
.
Saul
in
battle
pursued
to
death
by
the
Philistines
,
requested
his
armorbearer
to
draw
out
his
sword
,
&
thrust
him
thorow
:
but
he
would
not
,
being
affraid
to
offend
,
&
of
better
nature
than
to
shew
any
kind
of
vnthankfulnes
to
his
King
:
so
that
the
desperat
wretched
King
was
driuen
to
that
extreme
Exigent
,
to
dy
vpon
his
owne
sword
.
But
the
Amalekite
that
brought
tydinges
to
Dauid
of
the
death
of
Saul
,
&
confessed
that
he
made
an
end
of
him
,
was
for
his
paines
rewarded
with
the
like
death
by
Dauid
.
Thy
bloud
be
vpon
thine
own
head
,
for
thine
own
mouth
hath
testified
against
thee
.
In
this
gouernement
of
Dauid
Absalom
the
Kinges
Sonne
did
slay
his
Brother
for
his
Sisters
sake
,
Though
I
shoulde
receiue
a
thousand
Sicles
of
siluer
in
my
hand
,
yet
would
I
not
lay
mine
hand
vpon
the
Kings
Son
.
He
wold
not
touch
the
Kings
son
,
and
yet
the
son
did
rise
against
the
father
:
&
how
then
dare
subiects
hazard
&
enterprise
the
like
against
the
lords
anointed
?
Dauid
went
further
in
this
point
of
iustice
,
that
hee
did
not
suffer
any
murther
to
escape
vnpunished
against
priuate
men
,
neither
did
God
suffer
those
to
goe
scot-free
:
She
bah
raiseth
a
power
against
Dauid
,
As
these
examples
among
the
Iewes
doe
warne
,
Exodus
:
Hee
that
smiteth
à
man
&
he
dy
,
he
shal
dy
the
death
:
which
is
repeated
in
Leuiticus
,
and
againe
in
Exodus
:
If
a
man
come
presumptuously
vpon
his
neighbor
to
slay
him
with
guile
,
thou
shalt
take
him
from
mine
Altar
,
that
he
may
dy
.
A
plaine
precept
we
haue
against
sedition
and
rebellion
in
Salomon
:
My
sonne
,
fear
the
Lorde
,
and
the
King
,
and
meddle
not
with
them
that
are
seditious
:
for
their
destructio●
shal
rise
sodainly
,
and
who
knoweth
the
r●●ine
of
them
both
?
And
in
another
place
,
Giu●
not
thy
waies
to
destroy
Kings
.
Another
Law
of
God
is
in
the
new
Testament
,
render
honour
to
whom
honour
is
due
,
and
fear
to
whom
fear
belongeth
:
Tite
:
Admonish
those
to
be
subiect
to
Princes
and
powers
.
So
dooth
Peter
:
Honour
the
King
.
And
in
his
second
Epistle
he
saith
,
that
God
doth
preserue
the
vniust
vnto
the
day
of
iudgement
to
be
punished
,
&
chiefly
those
that
walk
after
the
flesh
in
the
lust
of
vncleannes
,
and
despise
the
gouernment
,
which
are
presumpteous
,
and
stand
in
their
owne
conceite
,
and
fear
not
to
speak
euill
of
them
that
are
in
dignity
.
The
like
is
read
in
Iudas
.
Apostles
:
Thou
shalt
not
curse
the
Prince
of
the
people
.
I
take
it
that
he
did
not
know
at
al
that
he
was
the
Prince
of
the
Priestes
,
otherwise
he
would
haue
honoured
him
.
Shal
I
trouble
you
with
the
recitall
of
a
fewe
examples
?
Theudas
made
a
conspiracy
,
but
he
was
slaint
so
did
Iudas
of
Galile
,
Iesus
Christ
his
Master
,
forsaken
of
God
and
of
man
:
of
God
,
for
that
hauing
no
grace
,
he
hanged
himselfe
:
of
man
,
for
when
Iudas
bewailed
his
case
to
the
Priestes
,
What
is
that
to
vs
,
(
quoth
they
?
)
see
thou
to
it
.
R.
Holcot
,
both
our
countrymen
,
the
first
th●
cause
,
the
second
the
time
:
the
cause
,
was
mony●
in
Iudas
that
moued
him
to
betray
his
master●
which
fault
of
Iudas
,
Beda
,
many
thi●
day
abhor
as
cruel
&
wicked
,
but
they
tak●
not
heede
of
it
:
the
other
is
the
time
,
wh●●
he
betraied
him
,
euen
when
hee
had
taken
h●●
Supper
,
he
went
out
and
betraied
him
.
B●ware
al
traytours
of
Iudas
ende
,
beware
a●
auoide
the
cause
,
that
is
hope
of
siluer
,
and
of
a
better
change
,
his
chaunge
was
no
Royall
Exchange
,
but
insteed
of
his
Apostleship
,
a
rope
.
Let
vs
dearly
beloued
seek
no
alteration
of
the
state
,
nor
of
the
Prince
:
let
vs
consider
our
blessed
time
,
better
than
this
vnkind
Iudas
did
.
For
we
at
this
time
are
no
lesse
than
Iudas
was
both
corporally
fed
with
the
plentiful
prouision
at
Gods
hande
,
and
also
spiritually
refreshed
at
the
table
of
the
lord
,
and
with
the
right
vse
of
the
sacraments
.
From
the
lawe
of
Christ
,
wee
come
to
the
opinion
of
Christian
Fathers
.
This
murmuring
of
yours
is
not
against
vs
,
but
against
the
Lorde
God
:
and
setteth
downe
this
seuere
sentence
:
No
man
that
lifteth
vp
himself
against
his
better
,
went
at
any
time
vnpunished
,
concluding
thus
:
Wherefore
wee
must
reuerence
our
superiours
,
for
that
it
is
no
great
matter
to
be
cal●ed
à
Christian
,
but
to
bee
one
:
as
though
hee
would
imploy
,
We
are
defamed
as
●raytours
against
the
Maiesty
of
the
Emperour
,
and
yet
Christians
were
neuer
found
to
be
Albimans
,
nor
Nigrians
,
nor
Cassians
,
but
he
there
discharging
the
Christians
,
chargeth
the
heathen
who
condemned
the
christians
:
Christianus
nullius
est
hostis
,
nedum
Imperatoris
.
A
Christian
is
foe
to
no
man
,
much
lesse
to
the
Emperour
.
The
office
of
Christians
and
priuat
men
is
by
Augustine
thus
described
:
Whosoeuer
striketh
euil
men
in
that
they
are
euil
,
and
hath
a
cause
to
kil
them
,
is
the
minister
of
God
.
But
hee
that
killeth
or
slaieth
or
maimeth
à
sorcerer
,
theef
,
church-robber
,
à
periured
man
,
or
any
other
malefactour
,
shal
be
iudged
as
a
mankiller
,
and
the
more
sharply
,
because
he
was
not
afraid
abusiuè
or
disorderly
to
vsurp
vnto
himselfe
a
power
not
graunted
vnto
him
from
God
.
The
same
Austine
ratifieth
this
order
political
&
the
authority
of
Magistrates
as
necessary
and
inuiolable
.
Except
there
were
ordeined
an
order
of
liuing
certainely
,
nature
would
neuer
make
an
end
of
sinning
.
Chrysostome
agreeth
to
the
same
.
If
thou
takest
away
the
tribunal
seats
of
iudgement
,
tho●
hast
taken
away
all
order
of
our
life
:
and
thou
shalt
separate
from
the
ship
the
gouenour
,
thou
hast
drownd
the
boat
:
if
thou
t●kest
away
the
captaine
from
the
army
,
tho●
deliuerest
vp
the
souldiours
captiues
to
t●●
enemies
:
euen
so
if
thou
takest
away
Prince
from
cities
,
we
shall
lead
a
life
more
vnreasonable
,
then
vnreasonable
wild
beasts
,
byting
and
deuouring
one
another
,
the
man
of
might
him
that
is
the
poorer
,
the
boulder
him
that
is
the
simpler
.
Although
wee
see
cloth
of
golde
,
and
shooes
of
gold
,
and
such
like
,
yet
we
still
require
and
desire
another
garment
and
vesture
to
know
a
King
:
but
assoone
as
we
behold
his
Purple
and
Crowne
,
now
we
look
for
no
other
sign
of
the
Maiesty
of
a
Prince
.
And
againe
,
No
man
will
entertaine
a
King
vnreuerently
,
no
man
wil
touch
the
Kinges
robe
with
vncleane
handes
,
although
hee
were
alone
in
a
solitary
place
:
and
yet
the
garment
is
nothing
else
but
the
threed
of
worms
.
If
thou
wonder
at
the
coloring
and
dyeng
of
it
,
euen
that
is
the
blood
of
a
dead
fish
.
Againe
he
telleth
vs
that
this
vplandish
&
barbarous
shedding
,
of
bloud
came
from
our
old
Ethnish
forefathers
the
Britanes
,
who
did
eat
mans
flesh
,
very
Giants
indeede
:
it
came
from
the
Massagets
&
Derbices
,
who
thought
them
miserable
that
died
of
any
sicknes
,
&
therefore
when
they
came
to
be
old
,
killed
them
&
deuoured
them
,
Father
,
Mother
,
Cosens
,
Kinsmen
,
whatsoeuer
.
The
like
and
almost
in
the
same
words
hath
Ierom.
To
these
opinions
of
fathers
might
be
added
ciuill
Lawes
,
if
a
Ciuilian
hadde
this
matter
in
handling
.
Let
euery
poisoner
,
sorcerer
,
adulterer
,
coiner
,
murderer
,
parricide
suffer
tormentes
,
and
hee
that
is
guilty
of
treason
,
let
him
not
hope
for
any
pardon
of
his
lord
,
against
whome
hee
hath
presumed
such
thinges
:
He
could
tel
you
by
the
law
of
Pompey
this
decree
,
That
if
a
man
kil
his
father
or
mother
,
wife
,
husband
,
patron
,
or
patronesse
,
and
such
others
,
there
mentioned
,
hee
must
be
in
daunger
of
that
penalty
which
is
sette
downe
by
the
law
of
Cornelius
.
They
could
tel
you
,
Hee
that
walketh
with
a
weapon
,
with
an
entent
and
purpose
to
kil
a
man
,
is
to
be
punished
,
as
if
he
had
killed
a
man
:
for
in
great
and
grieuous
offenses
the
will
is
respected
,
and
not
the
end
.
And
their
Rule
is
,
that
the
will
is
to
bee
punished
as
seuerely
as
the
deed
.
They
could
also
report
out
of
their
Law
,
that
it
is
a
wicked
thing
for
a
man
to
ly
in
waite
against
man
,
because
Nature
hath
linked
vs
altogether
with
a
certaine
kinred
and
cognation
.
And
againe
,
That
whosoeuer
raseth
,
washeth
,
counterfeiteth
the
mony
of
a
Prince
,
l.
2.
c.

fal

mon.
if
he
bee
a
free
man
,
he
is
to
bee
throwen
to
beasts
:
if
a
seruant
,
he
ought
to
be
extremely
punished
.
And
also
he
that
coineth
a
new
coin
without
the
authority
of
the
Prince
,
hee
must
be
burned
.
What
then
may
be
thought
of
such
Giaunts
that
are
not
onely
contumelious
against
the
coat
of
the
Prince
,
but
also
against
his
person
,
not
only
iniurious
against
his
coin
,
but
against
his
body
,
not
only
intend
murther
,
but
practise
it
?
We
may
ioyn
vnto
these
lawes
,
Exampls
,
experimentes
and
documents
which
we
learn
by
ciuil
and
Christian
gouernours
.
Clodius
Albinus
,
Aelius
Spartianus
writeth
,
that
hee
rebelled
against
the
Emperour
Seuerus
in
Fraunce
:
how
sped
he
?
When
hee
was
ouercome
,
and
his
body
was
brought
,
he
commanded
his
head
being
halfe
dead
to
be
cut
off
,
and
to
bee
carried
to
Rome
,
the
rest
of
the
carcase
to
be
quartered
,
&
set
vp
before
his
owne
house
:
some
ad
that
he
willed
the
same
carcase
to
be
throwen
into
the
riuer
Rhodanus
with
his
children
.
Pescennius
Niger
saluted
as
Emperor
by
the
band
of
the
Syrians
:
what
was
his
end
?
He
was
staine
by
Seuerus
,
his
head
was
caried
vpon
a
speare
,
his
children
,
who
had
beene
entreated
of
the
said
Emperour
as
his
owne
children
,
were
banished
with
the
Mother
:
and
after
the
rebellion
of
Albinus
hee
put
them
al
to
death
.
Iulius
Caesar
,
as
Vulcatius
Gallicanus
witnesseth
.
He
wrought
treason
against
Verus
,
he
rebelled
vnder
Marcus
Antoninus
Philosophus
,
his
delight
was
to
be
called
Catiline
,
bragging
that
he
should
be
also
Sergius
,
if
hee
might
kil
Dialogistam
and
Philosopham
aniculam
,
naming
and
meaning
Antonine
,
because
he
was
a
learned
disputer
,
and
giuen
to
the
study
of
Auncient
Philosophy
.
What
was
his
rewarde
?
Antoninus
himselfe
was
mercifull
:
but
Faustina
the
Empresse
writeth
to
Antonine
,
that
if
he
loued
his
children
&
wife
,
hee
should
sharply
pursue
these
rebels
,
for
that
these
mutinous
&
seditious
captaines
&
souldiours
had
an
euil
custom
,
Quinisi
opprimantur
,
Pius
,
That
hee
shoulde
first
shew
pitty
to
himselfe
and
to
his
owne
,
and
then
afterward
to
straungers
.
In
fine
,
the
Senate
tooke
order
,
that
he
should
be
iudged
a
traytour
,
and
his
goods
confiscated
,
Et
consensu
omnium
,
praeter
Antiochenses
,
interemptus
est
,
and
by
the
consent
of
euery
man
(
excepting
the
Antiochians
)
he
was
executed
.
Now
for
that
I
must
end
this
time
,
apply
this
in
our
latter
and
leud
daies
,
as
you
think
good
.
Our
learned
Antonina
for
her
owne
part
of
her
admirable
clemency
,
hath
shewed
pitty
,
and
mercy
to
many
traitours
:
our
Honourable
Counsail
,
and
our
Lawes
haue
prouided
against
them
,
and
some
of
them
haue
had
their
desert
by
Iustice
,
as
you
haue
heard
it
should
be
,
and
might
be
by
the
law
of
Nature
,
by
the
Law
of
God
among
the
Iews
,
and
also
among
the
Christians
,
by
the
iudgement
of
Christian
Fathers
,
by
the
constitutions
ciuil
,
by
Emperours
and
Princes
Christian
and
others
.
You
also
my
brethren
and
countrimen
,
haue
taken
anoth
of
fidelity
as
the
Athenians
did
,
〈◊〉
〈◊〉
〈◊〉
〈◊〉
〈◊〉
&c.
I
will
defend
Religion
,
holy
and
prophane
thinges
,
and
fight
for
them
either
alone
,
or
with
many
,
I
will
not
leaue
my
Countrie
in
woorse
state
,
but
in
better
.
I
will
alwaies
obey
the
Magistrate
,
and
chiefe
Ruler
,
I
will
bee
subiect
to
Lawes
ordained
,
and
to
al
other
Decrees
set
downe
by
the
Commons
and
Parlament
.
If
anie
will
frustrate
or
make
voide
the
Lawes
,
or
not
bee
obedient
to
them
:
I
will
not
agree
,
but
will
reuenge
it
either
alone
or
with
manie
.
I
will
obserue
and
reuerence
the
Holie
Ceremonies
of
My
Countrie
:
whereof
God
be
my
witnesse
and
iudge
.
Wee
of
this
land
doe
swear
and
protest
in
the
name
of
Christ
,
a
fidelity
to
God
,
to
the
Prince
,
&
to
our
country
.
This
oath
must
be
kept
,
you
know
the
rule
of
law
:
Nimis
indignum
esse
iudicamus
quod
quisque
sua
voce
dilucide
protestatus
est
,
infirmare
.
Wee
thinke
it
an
vnworthy
and
shameful
thing
,
that
a
man
should
breake
that
which
he
hath
protested
plainly
with
his
owne
mouth
.
God
graunt
vs
al
to
bee
mindful
of
it

THE
FOVRTH
SERMON
against

,
and

trayteterous

CHRYSOSTOM
a
worthy
&
eloquent
father
,
hath
vttered
a
good
methode
and
order
of
teaching
to
bee
obserued
of
all
that
shall
occupy
the
roome
of
Ministers
in
the
Church
of
Christ
.
Hic
mihi
videtur
optimus
esse
docendi
modus
&c.
This
seemeth
to
me
the
best
way
of
teaching
,
if
we
doe
not
cease
to
counsel
and
exhort
in
any
matter
,
before
we
shal
see
our
counsel
and
admonition
to
come
to
effect
:
for
if
one
reasoneth
to
day
of
almes
,
to
morow
of
praier
,
the
next
day
of
humanity
,
and
againe
afterward
of
modesty
and
humility
of
minde
,
hee
cannot
well
make
perfect
any
of
these
in
the
heartes
of
his
auditours
.
I
am
therefore
returned
to
this
place
,
to
prosecute
the
same
matter
,
which
the
last
time
was
deliuered
to
you
.
You
haue
heard
obedience
towards
Princes
and
Superiours
hath
bin
commended
by
diuerse
lawes
of
Nature
,
of
God
in
the
ould
and
new
Testament
,
commended
by
auncient
Christian
fathers
,
by
Ciuil
Constitutions
and
Examples
of
Princes
,
&
how
contrariwise
.
disobedience
,
treacheries
,
rebellions
were
euermore
condemned
,
&
condignlie
punished
.
Now
I
am
to
proceede
to
other
lawes
,
Clement
:
That
blessed
Saint
Peter
said
,
there
were
three
kinds
of
Homicides
or
murderers
,
killers
of
brethren
,
slanderers
,
and
haters
:
out
of
Hierom
:
Al
iniquity
,
and
oppression
,
and
vnrighteousnes
is
iudgement
of
bloud
,
and
although
thou
dost
not
kil
with
the
sworde
,
yet
doost
thou
slay
with
thy
wil.
Augustine
:
Murder
forbidden
by
Law
was
thought
to
bee
nothing
els
but
the
killing
of
the
body
:
Therefore
the
Lord
hath
opened
to
vs
that
euery
vniust
motion
to
hurt
a
brother
,
is
to
be
reputed
among
the
kindes
of
murther
.
This
doctrine
gathered
out
of
these
fathers
,
and
borrowed
out
of
the
interpretation
of
our
sauiour
Christ
,
Whosoeuer
obeyeth
not
commandements
,
is
guiltie
and
a
debtour
of
the
penaltie
,
out
of
Austin
,
De
sermone
Domini
in
Monte.
And
in
the
same
Title
out
of
Gregory
.
That
which
is
giuen
in
precept
,
is
commaunded
:
that
which
is
commaunded
,
must
needs
be
don
:
if
it
be
not
done
,
Paenam
habet
:
it
hath
the
penalty
.
Why
then
should
any
Pope
dispense
with
any
Princes
subiect
,
and
not
incurre
double
punishment
,
in
that
hee
breaketh
himselfe
,
and
causeth
many
thousands
to
commit
the
like
?
The
Popes
law
can
tel
him
,
Quod
alter
mandato
nostro
facit
,
nos
reputamur
fecisse
.
The
Popish
Schoolmen
teach
,
That
if
a
man
doth
not
fulfil
his
penance
enioyned
to
him
by
his
ghostly
father
,
he
committeth
deadly
sin
.
Scot.
in
4.
d.
15.
and
so
doth
Bonauenture
require
obedience
to
a
Prelate
vnder
paine
of
death
.
And
to
disobey
a
Prince
shal
it
be
venial
,
and
a
thing
of
nothing
?
Nowe
let
vs
set
their
owne
sayinges
,
and
doings
in
one
ballaunce
,
and
see
how
far
they
disagree
from
this
authority
of
these
fathers
,
Pope
Innocentius
the
third
of
that
name
,
when
he
had
intermedled
,
and
made
debate
by
his
double
dealing
betweene
Otho
the
first
,
and
Frederik
,
Rome
,
Iohn
Capocius
:
O
holy
father
,
your
wordes
are
the
wordes
of
God
,
but
your
deedes
are
the
deedes
of
the
diuell
.
So
may
wee
iudge
of
the
rest
of
the
rabblement
of
Popes
,
whose
lawes
compiled
out
of
these
fathers
,
are
godly
in
some
cases
,
but
their
own
woords
,
&
works
are
diuelish
.
Touching
woords
,
It
is
certainly
most
euident
,
that
the
iudgment
of
the
Apostolical
See
(
whose
authority
is
greatest
)
must
not
be
retracted
of
any
man
,
neither
is
it
lawful
for
any
man
to
iudge
of
her
iudgementes
.
And
againe
,
The
iudge
must
not
be
iudged
,
neither
of
the
Emperour
,
neither
of
al
the
cleargy
,
neither
of
Kings
.
And
againe
:
The
Church
of
Rome
alone
by
her
own
authority
may
iudge
of
al
,
but
it
is
not
permitted
to
any
to
iudge
of
her
.
It
is
a
great
vsurpation
of
the
Byshop
of
Rome
,
both
in
his
notorious
claime
of
all
Kingdomes
,
and
in
his
oppression
of
all
Kinges
:
which
by
generall
terms
,
and
particular
discourse
may
be
found
in
Histories
,
and
are
couched
together
in
Augustin
Steuchus
a
great
Proctor
of
the
Pope
,
euen
out
of
the
bowels
and
priuities
of
the
Popes
Epistles
,
&
Registres
.
Pope
hath
a
most
auncient
and
vniuersal
dominion
ouer
the
King
domes
of
al
the
west
Church
.
That
Rome
is
content
,
and
suffereth
Kinges
to
rule
,
so
that
they
acknowledge
hir
to
be
Patronam
,
Dominam
,
ac
Reginam
,
as
the
Patronesse
,
Lady
,
and
Queen
:
so
that
al
pensions
be
payed
to
her
,
and
shee
as
Queene
to
be
saluted
,
&
worshipped
,
Adoretur
.
These
specialties
be
many
:
Gregory

,

the
Kinges
of

beene
giuen

and
deliuered
to
the
right
,
&
propriety
of
Blessed
Saint
Peter
,
and
of
the

Pope
Alexander
the
third
certifieth
William
Conquerour
,
that

Iohn

England
to
the
Church
of

,
Vntil
they
did
cast
away
the
couenant
of

,
and
turned
the
people
of

from

:
And

Contributours

,
which
our
Popish

Saint

paied
this
debt
to

William
:
but

In

that

his

which
practise
so
displeased
the

,
that
shortly
after

fel
sick

died
at

,
and
his

cruelty
was

no
end
,
but
in
life

death
,
yea
after
both
,
persecuteth
the
annointed
of

This
is
the
practise
of
Popes
and
specially
of
Gregory
:
now
consider
with
me
,
Popes
,
Nicolas
,
Innocent
,
and
Calixt
,
of
whom
before
is
spoken
?
Gregory
notwithstanding
these
Popes
charters
and
lofty
stile
,
&
totius
Vesaniae
pestiferum
Principem
,
and
of
all
this
brainsicknesse
a
pestilent
ring-leader
.
He
was
iudged
before
in
a
Councell
at
Wormes
,
and
depriued
with
this
plain
speech
,
Because
thou
hast
declamed
,
that
none
of
vs
should
be
a
Bishoppe
to
thee
:
therefore
hereafter
thou
shalt
not
be
Apostolicall
to
vs
.
He
was
also
iudged
in
a
Councell
at
Mence
,
Christianus
Massaeus
affirmeth
,
Bishops
Gregory
was
depriued
,
Gilbertus
was
chosen
in
his
place
,
whom
they
called
Clement
.
I
doe
confesse
that
I
am
well
serued
:
for
with
this
hande
I
made
a
promise
and
tooke
anoth
of
fidelity
to
my
lord
,
which
I
haue
vnhonestly
broken
by
your
persuasion
,
I
haue
a
iust
reward
for
my
periury
:
and
,
as
also
the
Abbat
;
of
Vrsperge
confesseth
,
Iohn
Cuspinian
touching
the
good
nature
of
the
Emperour
against
this
leud
Rebel
,
that
he
buried
him
honorably
with
roial
pompe
,
which
when
it
was
reprooued
and
misliked
by
his
frinds
,
he
aunswered
:
Vtinám

Now
what
became
of
Henry
the
fist
,
Pope
.
Pope
Paschalis
the
second
in
a
Councel
holden
at
Lateran
reuoketh
all
his
promises
which
he
made
to
the
King
,
euen
by
the
receauing
of
the
Sacrament
solemnly
and
religiously
at
his
Masse
,
Grandi
fulmine
,
with
a
great
lightening
or
thunder-bolt
.
Afterward
he
was
driuen
to
release
al
the
Inuesting
to
his
Lord
Calixtus
:
&
as
the
Pope
began
with
him
,
so
God
in
iudgement
proceeded
against
him
.
For
there
fel
out
in
Germany
tumultes
,
spoiles
,
burning
,
wasting
,
murthering
euery
man
as
hee
listed
:
Cities
were
destroied
,
and
they
made
a
pray
of
al
things
that
was
the
Emperours
.
And
the
same
Abbas
reporteth
that
there
were
certaine
conspirators
against
them
,
a
Prince
,
not
greatly
to
be
commended
,
for
that
vnder
the
pretense
of
Catholick
Religion
he
depriued
his
father
:
Whose
life
is
thus
painted
out
by
Cuspinian
:
his
impiety
and
cruelty
towards
his
father
:
his
owne
wretched
life
and
shameful
death
.

Thus
the
Pope
Gregory
with
al
his
treacherous
practisers
is
come
to

iudged

which
prophecy
or
forespeaking
came
to
passe
:
for
the
Turk
spreading
out
towards
heauen
the
book
&
Articles
of
Pacification
agreed
vpon
,
betwixt
them
,
&
sworn
to
,
by
the
Christians
,
vpon
the
Enangelists
,
by
the
other
vpon
their
Alcoran
,
cried
out
to
Christ
,
that
if
he
were
a
true
God
,
he
should
be
reuenged
of
his
false
Christians
,
Immediatly
the
King
was
staine
,
the
Cardinall
running
away
was
thrust
thorow
,
Hunniades
hardly
escaped
,
&
the
Christians
,
who
had
the
better
hand
afore
,
were
with
great
losse
,
and
shame
of
al
Christendome
vanquished
.
Thus
the
Romish
Ismael
hath
his
hand
lifted
vp
against
all
men
,
Saladine
Soultan
of
AEgypt
,
as
he
was
fauourahle
vnto
Guye
Lusignane
King
of
Ierusalem
his
prisoner
,
so
he
was
seuere
against
Rainold
Castilian
,
He
incurred
so
much
their
indignation
,
that
they
whispered
among
themselues
that
he
was
an
old
doting
foole
.
And
one
of
them
,
Benedict
,
non
re
,
sed
nomine
,
not
in
deed
,
but
by
name
,
set
one
at
the
Popes
chamber
doore
,
many
nightes
,
by
a
reed
to
sound
as
it
had
been
an
Angel
:
Celestine
,
Celestine
,
cede
,
negotium
supra

est
:
O
Celestine
,
Celestine
,
giue
place
,
this
is
more
than
thou
canst
perfourme
:
which
voice
the
simple
Pope
hearing
aunswered
,
Faciam
quod
Deus
voluerit
:
Gods
will
bee
doone
,
I
will
doe
as
pleaseth
God
.
But
the
pleasure
of
Benedict
or
Benet
was
,
Qui
imperatoribus
,
regibus
,
principibus
.
&c.
This
Boniface
that
did
strike
into
Emperors
,
Kings
,
Princes
,
nations
and
people
a
terrour
,
rather
than
a
religion
:
He
that
went
about
to
giue
,
and
to
take
away
kingdomes
,
to
thrust
out
and
thrust
in
at
his
own
pleasure
and
arbitrement
,
dieth
,
and
as
it
was
commonly
saide
at
that
time
,
Augustinus
Steuchus
,
declaring
how
the
Romanes
themselues
hardly
entreated
their
Popes
.
How
many
haue
they
cruelly
killed
?
How
many
haue
they
taken
,
imprisoned
,
and
strangled
?
And
yet
the
same
Steuchus
will
goe
about
to
prooue
vnto
vs
the
perpetuity
,
and
eternity
of
the
Romish
Seat
,
and
that
out
of
a
Poet
Virgil
,
Imperium
sine
fine
dedi
.
the
sense
is
,
That
their
Papal
Empire
shal
be
endlesse
:
wherein
I
may
well
resemble
these
Romanistes
vnto
the
people
of
Athens
,
Treioice
that
I
shal
bee
as
an
Eagle
in
the
cloudes
.
Paris
Gerson
in
the
Councel
of
Constance
said
many
times
of
one
Pope
,
Peter
de
Luna
:
Non
erit
pax
Ecclesiae
donec
auferatur
Luna
:
There
wil
be
no
peace
to
the
church
of
Christ
,
vntil
this
Lunatike
Papaty
be
rooted
out
from
vs
,
and
out
of
al
Christendome
,
This
also
was
once
prefigured
,
and
shadowed
out
to
vs
in
another
sort
against
Iulius
the
second
that
Romish
Ruffler
,
and
against
that
bloody
Seat
by
a
strange
monster
born
at
that
time
,
Pride
,
lightnes
,
want
of
vertues
,
Sodometry
,
the
loue
of
earthly
things
,
forgetfulnesse
of
God
,
and
vnsatiable
couetousnesse
,
FLAGELLO
FRANCORVM
PVNIENDA
:
These
monstrous
vices
must
be
punished
by
the
scourges
of
French-men
:
Lette
vs
breake
their
bandes
:
let
vs
cast
from
vs
their
yoke
:
Hee
that
sitteth
in
heauen
laugheth

Pray
dearly
beloued

Pray
for

,
Pray
for
the
French
that
afflicte
:
for
the
one
,
that
they
may
bee
comforted
,
for
the
other
,
that
they
may
be
conuerted
.
Their
conuersion
will
bee
the
Popes
destruction
,
and
a
consolation
for
vs
,
and
for
all

Godly
:
Therefore
O

THE
FIFTH
SERMON
I
HAVE
confuted
in
the
last
sermon
Abishai
of
Rome
,
and
al
trayterous
Remainstes
,
by
their
owne
Laws
of
Rome
,
Canonical●
in
name
,
and
indeede
good
Rules
against
al
kind
of
murder
:
I
haue
complained
iustly
of
their
irregular
and
vnruly
rashnes
in
contemning
and
breaking
their
owne
rules
,
and
making
their
owne
will
their
law
and
rule
.
I
am
now
to
speak
to
Englishmen
,
and
out
of
English
laws
and
others
,
Ch.
Popilius
in
a
doubtful
cause
much
perplexed
,
and
hazarded
,
and
was
by
his
meanes
quitte
,
and
returned
safe
and
sound
to
his
country
,
and
neither
in
deede
nor
word
hurt
at
any
time
by
the
said
Tully
:
yet
he
,
such
was
his
vnkindnes
,
and
by
and
by
cutteth
off
the
head
of
the
Romane
Eloquence
,
&
the
most
noble
right
hand
of
peace
,
neuer
remembring
,
that
he
caried
that
head
,
which
had
made
an
Oration
for
his
head
.
I
report
almost
the
very
words
of
Valerius
Maximus
.
Lycurgus
,
of
whome
Apollo
gaue
this
Oracle
,
Christian
Lawe-maker
:
Let
vs
not
bee
vnthankfull
Popilians
to
couet
the
heade
of
our
Soueraigne
,
who
hath
saued
and
preserued
many
heades
.
Harken
therefore
,
welbeloued
Countrimen
,
to
our
own
Lawes
,
ould
and
new
,
and
afterward
to
other
constitutions
,
&
Examples
abroad
among
our
neighbours
,
if
occasion
serueth
.
An
old
Law
was
by
Canutus
,
Alure
du
was
,
That
whosoeuer
laid
wait
to
kil
trayterously
the
King
,
either
alone
or
accompanied
with
others
,
Sunt
leges
&
legum
paenae
.
Their
be
Lawes
,
and
penalties
of
Lawes
,
not
lawes
as
a
sword
hid
in
the
scabbard
,
but
drawen
out
&
executed
vpon
them
:
and
also
that
there
is
no
succour
by
Law
,
or
by
dispensation
for
Lawe-breakers
,
according
to
that
saying
in
Lawe
:
These
Lawes
notwithstanding
,
Iulius
Caesar
and
the
Romanes
,
either
by
the
Danes
,
either
by
the
Saxons
,
either
by
the
Normanes
,
but
by
the
vnthankful
and
gracelesse
children
of
this
our
common
Mother
?
Gildas
complaineth
of
the
Britanes
,
that
they
were
conquered
,
non
armis
,
not
by
battle
,
but
by
their
own
slouthfulnes
,
&
treachery
:
and
as
Demosthenes
accuseth
his
countrymen
the
Athenians
,
Wee
are
ouercome
of
the
Danes
,
not
with
weapon
or
force
of
armes
,
but
with
treason
wrought
by
our
owne
people
.
The
cause
is
opened
by
Matthaeus
Westmonasteriensis
,
Iohn
Beliol
by
the
king
of
England
was
made
their
King
,
one
Thomas
Turbeuile
more
acquainted
with
chiualry
,
than
honesty
,
Thomas
Turbeuile
?
Whose
Epitaph
a
versifier
wrote
in
this
sort
:
That
Turbeuile
was
a
troubler
of
the
tranquillity
&
quietnes
of
the
Realme
,
&
therefore
hee
that
would
bee
an
hoate
burning
sparkle
,
was
become
a
dead
spark
himselfe
,
as
in
those
rythmes
may
appeere
at
large
,
whereof
this
is
the
beginning
:
Turbat
tranquilla
clam
,
Thomas
turbida
villa
,
Qui
quasi
scintilla
fuit
,
accidit
esse
fauilla
.
In
the
time
of
Edward
the
second
,
Andreas
Hartlee
created
Earle
of
Carlile
at
York
,
&
sent
by
the
King
into
Scotland
to
King
Robert
to
intreat
of
Peace
,
made
another
matter
,
&
turned
it
into
a
message
for
war
,
priuily
,
&
fraudulently
to
compasse
the
destruction
of
his
owne
King
.
This
though
contriued
secretly
,
yet
it
was
certified
to
the
King
,
&
hee
immediatly
at
his
returne
vpon
the
commandement
of
the
King
,
Kent
,
Roger
Mortimer
,
&
others
were
beheadded
.
Thus
you
see
exemplified
by
these
traitors
that
which
was
by
Lawes
enacted
:
as
also
by
another
example
of
an
Italian
,
indeuouring
to
betray
Calice
to
the
French
.

Ansley
and
Carton
.
that
had
in
their
mouth
the
Prouerbe
of
the
Hebrues
,
Woe
be
to
the
Land
,
whose
King
is
a
Childe
:
And
of
others
euen
in
the
court
,
as
of
Iohn
Ansley
knight
,
and
of
Hugh
Carton
minding
with
their
complices
to
set
vpon
the
King
and
to
murder
him
:
although
they
two
were
enemies
before
,
yet
in
this
made
one
,
agreeing
too
well
:
but
God
turned
all
to
the
best
,
and
mery
it
was
for
the
Lande
and
the
King
,
when
theeues
fel
out
:
for
Ansley
detecting
Carton
,
and
Carton
Ansley
,
it
was
determined
by
the
priuy
counsel
,
that
it
should
be
tried
in
a
Combate
,
in
the
which
at
the
length
Carton
was
wounded
,
and
throwen
downe
,
&
euen
now
at
point
of
death
,
confessing
his
fault
,
was
drawen
to
the
place
of
Execution
,
as
Polydor
testifieth
.
I
haue
entred
into
a
long
and
large
fielde
,
and
mind
to
goe
out
of
it
,
Agnus
Dei
,
and
other
holy
blessed
stuffe
,
William
Fitzosbert
,
otherwise
called
Long-beard
,
You
shal
draw
with
ioy
waters
out
of
the
wels
of
saluation
.
A
faire
allurement
whereby
hee
got
after
him
many
thousand
followers
,
as
fond
people
wil
hearken
to
the
whistle
,
and
daunce
after
the
pipe
of
such
Popish
Libertines
.
But
this
liberty
was
seruitude
,
for
though
hee
fledde
into
Bowe-Church
with
his
concubine
,
and
others
,
yet
it
was
not
long
a
Sanctuary
for
him
,
he
was
plucked
out
,
and
by
Hubert
Lorde
chiefe
Iustice
of
England
was
adiudged
to
be
drawen
thorough
the
streetes
,
Merline
,
Leoline
the
Prince
,
that
hee
should
wear
the
crown
of
Brutus
,
&
therfore
took
armour
against
King
Edward
.
Iohn
Peccam
Arch-Bishop
of
Caunterbury
to
cary
in
their
handes
bookes
of
the
Gospel
,
as
reliques
.
All
these
fantasies
could
not
saue
the
heads
of
Leoline
&
Dauid
,
Thomas
Becket
?
Pope
Alexander
?
And
yet
was
he
in
a
councel
at
Northhampton
accused
&
conuicted
of
extortion
,
robbery
,
forgery
,
falshood
,
treason
,
&
periury
,
in
the
presence
of
the
King
,
of
the
Peeres
,
and
Prelats
for
some
matters
in
his
Chancelarship
:
whereupon
although
he
lifted
on
high
his
crosse
staffe
,
and
ran
out
of
the
court
&
councell
in
hast
and
in
an
heat
ouer
the
sea
to
Rome
,
yet
neither
the
Pope
nor
the
crosse
could
saue
him
from
the
crosse
of
death
.
And
here
obserue
the
vniust
dealing
of
the
Pope
Alexander
,
who
canonized
among
the
Saints
,
Thomas
the
Traitour
,
the
Kings
deadly
enimy
,
and
persecuted
King
Henry
the
second
,
who
was
not
accessary
,
nor
priuy
at
that
time
to
it
,
as
it
fel
out
in
proofe
:
for
when
the
doers
thereof
slipping
aside
to
Duresme
looked
for
great
thankes
of
the
King
,
for
that
they
gaue
out
,
that
they
had
most
faithfully
defended
him
,
&
rid
his
enemy
out
of
the
way
:
it
is
written
by
Polydore
that
Henry
did
take
this
hainous
act
as
no
benefite
,
Iohn
Bal
Priest
,
prooueth
the
equality
of
States
without
any
difference
of
callinges
,
which
made
the
simple
people
to
be
giddy
headed
.
His
text
was
not
taken
out
of
scripture
,
but
borrowed
out
of
a
common
prouerb
:
When
Adam
delued
,
and
Eue
span
,
Who
was
then
a
Gentleman
?
But
the
Epilog
and
conclusion
of
this
Sermon
was
sorowful
for
himselfe
,
being
drawn
,
hanged
,
and
beheaded
at
Saint
Albans
,
and
his
quarters
sent
to
foure
cities
of
the
Realm
.
There
was
another
zealous
Monk
in
conspiracy
with
the
Barons
of

against

This
Adam
,
as
this
history
reporteth
,
was
arrested
openly
in
the
Parlament
at
London
,
to
the
great
reproch
of
the
cleargy
,
and
preiudice
of
the
whole
church
of
England
.
Against
Henry
the
fourth
,
Maudlin
Maude
,
and
William
Ferbie
,
were
hanged
,
drawen
,
and
beheaded

at

The
Priest
of
Ware
,
that
had
matriculated
in
a
roole
the
names
of
the
conspirators
,
whereof
some
were
innocent
,
had
the
same
iudgement
.
The
Prior
of
Laune
once
Canon
of
Dunstable
,
Walter
Baldocke
confessing
himselfe
to
be
priuy
to
it

for

was
hanged
,
so
were
the
Minorit
Friers

Thomas
Walsingham
writeth
of
Owen
Glendar
a
Welch
man
,
Owen
Glendar
in
the
absence
of
the
King
following
his
prophecy
,
wandred
miserably
vp
and
downe
in
the
desert
and
in
solitary
places
,
&
by
penury
and
hunger
pined
away
.
The
like
iudgement
fel
vpon
Falcasius
a
rebel
against
Henry
the
third
,
of
a
great
rich
man
so
miserably
poore
,
that
he
in
banishment
begged
his
bread
in
Fraunce
,
and
had
not
a
bolster
to
lay
his
head
vpon
.
I
might
haue
reckoned
vp
many
Iackes
,
as
Iacke
Strawe
,
Wat
Tiler
,
Iack
Miller
,
Iacke
Carter
,
against
King
Richard
the
second
,
and
also
Iack
Cade
of
Kent
,
who
was
in
a
cart
brought
to
London
,
taken
before
in
a
garden
in
Sussex
,
and
his
head
set
on
London
bridge
,
his
quarters
sent
into
Kent
in
the
time
of
Henry
the
sixt
,
but
these
are
matters
of
rebellion
indeede
,
but
not
so
much
for
Religion
,
which
is
my
purpose
and
chiefe
scope
:
And
yet
all
these
drink
of
one
cup
,
bitter
enough
here
for
such
,
and
most
bitter
in
the
life
to
come
.
Now
to
come
nearer
vnto
our
time
&
memory
,
Lincolne
shier
:
How
fel
it
out
in
the
North
by
their
religious
rebellion
?
Good
king
Edward
the
sixt
proceeded
in
zeale
as
his
father
began
,
Sir
Peter
Carewe
,
and
Gawine
,
and
other
faithfull
subiects
,
with
the
city
of
Exceter
,
perseuering
true
and
loyall
,
were
rewarded
,
&
highly
commended
:
but
Welch
,
vicar
of
Saint
Thomas
in
Exceter
,
a
newe
reformer
of
religion
,
was
hanged
vp
in
chains
vpon
the
top
of
the
church
with
his
sacring
Bel
,
holy
water
bucket
,
and
sprinkle
,
beeds
,
and
other
Popish
trash
,
&
the
chiefe
captaines
most
disloial
carried
to
London
to
be
executed
.
In
Northfolke
was
another
rebellion
of
such
as
partly
were
deceiued
,
The

About
that
time
of
these
rebellions
wee
had
set
foorth
by
the
authority
of
the
King
to
these
rebels
an
Eloquent
oration
by
a
great
learned
man
Sir
Iohn
Cheeke
Schoolemaster
to
the
King
,
These
former
and
foolish
attemptes
in
the
beginning
pernitious
,
and
tragicall
in
the
end
,
might
haue
persuaded
our
countrymen
to
haue
learned
by
their
fore-fathers
to
keepe
themselues
within
their
tedder
&
compasse
of
obedience
.
Queen
Elizabeth
hath
felt
too
much
of
their
wilfull
disobedience
,
and
they
tasted
somewhat
of
hir
prouoked
seuerity
.
Wherefore
did
Thomas
Pearcie
Earle
of
Northumberland
,
&
Charles
Earle
of
Westmerlande
against
the
Lawes
of
God
and
man
by
forcible
meanes
set
vp
Masses
,
burne
Bibles
,
and
bookes
of
Communion
?
Why
did
they
rise
themselues
,
when
they
might
haue
been
quiet
?
And
raise
the
people
,
which
should
haue
been
taught
obedience
?
Let

And
Dauid
said
to
Abishai
,
Destroy
him
not
:
for
who
can
laie
his
hande
on
the
Lords
annointed
,
and
bee
guitlesse
?

Moreouer
Dauid
said
,
As
the
Lorde
liueth
,
either
the
Lord
shal
smite
him
,
or
his
day
shal
come
to

,
or
he
shal

,
and

.
&c.
THE
SIXT
SERMON
.
THE
question
between
Abishai
and
Dauid
hath
been
disputed
&
discussed
,
and
lastly
out
of
the
laws
,
acts
and
monumentes
of
England
,
and
determined
by
the
allegations
and
premisses
before
,
that
it
is
a
true
conclusion
,
that
no
such
thing
can
be
iustified
,
that
al
such
rebellions
and
trayterous
enterprises
are
forbidden
and
punished
.
I
must
now
goe
forward
,
and
first
make
an
end
of
this
first
part
,
&
so
proceed
to
the
second
part
,
the
Protestation
of
Dauid
for
himself
.
I
should
make
a
discourse
of
other
countries
,
but
because
it
hath
been
by
the
way
touched
already
,
and
may
be
hereafter
incidently
glaunced
vpon
:
I
wil
cut
it
off
in
these
few
woords
.
In
Fraunce
I
read
this
same
matter
fitly
declaring
our
Tert
,
Pope
Iulius
the
second
,
now
ioyned
with
the
Venetians
,
did
attempt
somewhat
against
himselfe
and
his
subiectes
:
in
a
Councell
at
Towers
proposed
these
two
questions
:
the
first
,
whether
it
were
lawful
for
the
Pope
to
raise
warre
against
any
Prince
without
cause
?
Iames
Arteuillanus
,
for
the
like
practise
against
his
cuntry
put
to
death
by
the
Citisens
of
Gaunt
,
as
it
is
in
Frossard
:
&
also
out
of
Iacob
Meier
his
Chronicle
,
Lewes
Wallan
condemned
,
and
of
Gertrude
his
wife
,
whose
iudgement
was
to
loose
her
head
with
her
husband
,
and
to
bee
buried
in
the
middest
of
the
market
place
,
with
this
inscription
,
A
monument
of
Gertrude
wife
to
Lewes
Wallan
,
a
pestilent
woman
,
who
by
her
fraude
and
deceite
hath
brought
a
noble
Prince
to
great
danger
,
&
the
Citty
of
Burges
,
into
extreme
calamity
.
Although
the
rigour
of
this
sentence
was
afterward
mitigated
by
earnest
intercession
of
some
honourable
Ladies
and
principal
personages
.
The
same
author
maketh
mention
of
one
Arteualda
a
poore
mans
sonne
,
who
prospering
and
preuailing
by
his
rebellion
,
Fraunce
:
because
(
saith
hee
)
the
French-men
durst
not
encounter
with
the
English-men
running
ouer
al
Fraunce
:
yet
for
al
these
brags
he
was
slaine
among
his
owne
souldiours
in
the
conflict
at
Rosebeck
.
It
is
a
good
Morall
that
is
there
added
,

&
that
is
the
griping
and
gnawing
Law
of
the
Conscience
:
The
Law
written
in
our
harts
inwardly
accusing
vs
,
and
bearing
witnesse
against
vs
,
which
is
in
steed
of
a
thousand
witnesses
:
which
alone
will
persecute
vs
,
&
seeke
reuengement
,
though
al
the
Lawes
rehearsed
before
should
sleepe
and
pronounce
nothing
against
vs
.
Such
is
the
Conscience
and
custom
of
such
offenders
(
saith
Chrysostome
:
they
suspect
all
thinges
,
they
quake
at
shadowes
,
they
feare
euery
blast
,
and
noise
,
they
thinke
al
things
come
against
them
.
And
againe
,
Such
a
sinner
hath
within
him
an
accuser
pleading
alwaies
against
him
,
and
this
hee
carieth
euery
where
,
with
this
hee
is
scourged
whither
soeuer
he
goeth
,
as
the
Scripture
testifieth
,
that
the
wicked
man
flieth
when
no
man
pursueth
.
This
is
that
sensible
moth
of
our
bones
and
our
hearts
,
setting
before
vs
our
wickednes
.
The
voice
of
thy
brothers
blood
cryeth
vnto
mee
out
of
the
earth
.
For
as
a
good
conscience
is
the
best
companion
and
comforter
vnto
vs
,
as
it
is
written
:
A
mery
mind
is
a
continual
banquet
,
and
as
our
Dauid
did
marueilously
reioice
in
himselfe
that
hee
did
not
slay
Saul
:
Euen
so
contrariwise
,
Nocte

They
cary
a

against
them
,
and
shal
haue
no
rest
night
nor
day
.
Tertullian
saith
:
Omne
malum
aut

aut
pudore

perfundit
.
Denique
malefici
gestiunt

,
deuitant

Sinne
hath
two
companions
&
followers
,
either
fear
or
shame
:
feare
teacheth
them
to
hide
themselues
,
they
shunne
to
bee
seene
,
and
beeing
taken
,
they
quake
and
tremble
.
Shame
maketh
them
blush
.
Heu

?
Feare
and
shame
make
them
not
onely
to
seeke
corners
,
but
to
hang
themselues
beeing
affraid
and
ashamed
to
shew
their
heads
in
the
world
.
This
testimony
of
the
conscience
bringeth
them
to
these
two
inconueniences
,
Iohn

?
And
Herod
Agrippa
that
murdered
Iames
,
who
after
great
tormentes
and
horrible
pains
,
the
ūst
day
died
miserably
by
the
stroke
of
an
Angel
in
a
visible
manner
appearing
to
him
.
In
what
a
pitifull
case
was
Theodoricus

Virgil.
I
beleeue
(
saith
he
)
it
was
no
dreame
,
but
the
conscience
of
his
wickednes
,
a
conscience
,
I
say
,
the
more
heauy
,
the
greater
the
fault
was
,
the
which
if
neuer
at
any
other
time
,
yet
at
our
last
day
is
woont
to
represent
vnto
vs
the
memory
of
al
our
faultes
,
and
shew
withal
the
paines
that
hang
ouer
vs
.
I
neede
not
put
you
in
minde
of
the
lamentable
ende
of
late
Traytours
,
Someruile
&
others
.
All
these
felt
the
remorse
&
byting
of
an
euill
conscience
,
whereby
their
harts
were
as
the
trees
of
the
forrest
moued
with
the
wind
,
as
Achas

hart
was

at
length
after

among

he
was
so
mad
,
and
so
persecuted
in
conscience
,
that
hearing
swallowes
sing
,
he
foorthwith
with
a
speare
threw
downe
their
nest
,
and
killed
the
young
ones
:
&
being
chidden
for
it
,
he
answered
:
Doe
yee
not
hear
how
these
birdes
defame
me
,
as
though
I
had
killed
my
father
?
Wherupon

guilty
,
and
suffered

among

:
when
he
saw
he

made

certaine
praier
and
obtestation
to
the
Cranes
flying
there
aboue
at
that
time
,
to
bee
witnesses
and
reuengers
of
his
death
.
The
reuengers
of
Ibycus
are
come
.
This
ieast
being
ouer-heard
,
and
the
Poet
wel
knowen
and
found
dead
,
when
they
were
racked
vpon
these
suspitions
,
they
confesse
al.
I
haue
seen
in
Heluetia
the
like
euidence
and
testimony
of
this
conscience
,
in
a
man
,
who
for
a
little
paultry
pelfe
set
vpon
his
fellow-pedler
,
as
I
remember
,
and
gaue
him
many
wounds
,
killed
him
,
buried
him
deepely
in
the
ground
,
that
no
body
might
see
him
,
but
the
Rauens
found
him
out
,
they
sly
after
him
and
vpon
him
,
It
is
I
that
killed
the
man
,
and
so
being
apprehended
and
imprisoned
,
as
he
had
mangled
the
man
when
he
was
dead
with
many
strokes
,
to
make
him
sure
:
so
was
hee
after
condemnation
and
iudgement
broken
in
many
parts
of
his
body
,
&
set
vpon
the
wheele
,
for
birds
to
pick
at
him
.
How
true
is
the
saying
of
Isocrates
,
Though
a
man
hide
it
from
al
men
,
yet
he
cannot
hide
it
from
himselfe

The

striketh
and
beateth
the

And
thus
far
haue
I
gone
in
the
proofe
of
Dauids
reason
,
that
no
man
can
be
guiltles
that
laieth
his
hand
vpon
the

shal
be

,
Destroy
not
the
Prince
:
Remember
the
reason
hereof
:
For
God
will
not
suffer
any
such
destroier
,
or
open
conspirator
&
rebel
,
or
priuy
murderer
,
or
any
other
practiser
to
scape
vnpunished
,
but
will
by
one
torment
or
other
reuenge
the
quarel
of
his
anointed
,
and
this
is
the
conclusion
of
the
first
part
of
Dauids
reply
.
THE
second
part
of
Dauids
speach
,
is
his
PROTESTATION
for
himself
in
these
words
:
Text

part

Moreouer
Dauid
saide
,
As
the
Lord
liueth
,
either
the
Lord
shal
smite
him
,
or
his
day
shal
come
to
dy
,
or
he
shal
descend
into
battle
,
and
perish
.
The
Lorde
keepe
mee
from
laying
mine
hand
vpon
the
Lords
annointed
.
AS
Dauid
hath
forbidden
Sauls
murder
in
Abishai
,
so
he
now
protesteth
for
himselfe
and
that
with
anoth
,
As
the
Lord
liueth
,
that
he
detesteth
the
fact
,
and
relieth
himselfe
vpon
God
:
that
God
shal
strike
this
stroke
,
and
desireth
God
,
that
he
may
not
be
so
graceles
as
to
lay
his
hands
vpon
his
annointed
.
And
why
:
Either
the
Lord
shal
smite
him
,
or
his
daie
shall
come
to
dye
,
or
hee
shall
descend
into
battle
,
and
perish
.
The
Argument
is
this
,
God
wil
in
his
wisedome
appoint
his
time
for
the
dispatch
&
death
of
Saul
:
therefore
I
may
not
,
ne
will
intermeddle
in
this
action
against
Saul
,
as
though
he
should
in
the
name
and
person
of
God
thus
say
,
If
Saul
haue
offended
,
the
iudgement
is
mine
against
mine
annointed
.
I
am
,
and
so
am
called
the
God
of
reuengement
.
Reuengement
is
mine
,
I
will
repay
:
Ergo
,
I
wil
be
no
reuenger
,
neither
wil
I
vsurp
that
office
,
which
pertaineth
to
God
.
What
neede
I
,
or
you
Abishai
,
or
any
other
hasten
the
death
of
a
Prince
,
which
is
set
downe
in
the
booke
of
foreknowledge
by
God
himselfe
,
and
cannot
be
preuented
by
any
mortal
man
,
or
anie
wates
altered
:
No
fate
or
destiny
,
no
constellation
,
no
fortune
or
chaunce
,
no
cunning
of
star-tooters
or
figure-flingers
,
no
conspiracy
of
number
,
no
strength
of
confederates
,
no
counsailes
or
polices
of
wise
men
can
change
the
Prognostication
or
Almanacke
of
God
,
which
is
that
Saul
and
we
al
,
Prince
&
people
,
Magistrate
and
priuate
men
,
young
and
old
,
man
and
woman
,
good
and
bad
,
all
must
die
,
but
not
when
we
will
,
nor
when
friend
or
foe
wil
,
but
as
God
in
his
fatal
book
hath
written
it
downe
.
The
consequence
and
congruity
of
Dauids
Protestation
thus
explaned
:
I
pray
you
marke
these
notes
.
First
our
mortality
generally
incident
to
vs
al
high
&
lowe
,
which
is
woorth
the
noting
at
al
times

in
the

The
general
sentence
is
,
that
Adam
is
Adam
stil
,
hee
came
from
dust
,
and
shal
return
to
dust
again
:
that
we
dy
al
,
and
as
water
slide
away
.
Who
liueth
,
thou
hast
made
my
daies
as
a-hand
breadth
,
&
mine
age
is
as
nothing
before
thee
,
surely
euery
man
is
altogether
vanity
.
And
again
,
My
daies
are
like
a
shadowe
,
and
I
am
whithered
like
grasse
.
What
is
a
shadow
,
but
the
defect
and
priuation
of
light
,
and
then
what
is
the
life
of
man
but
death
?
The
same
vanity
of
man
is
painted
out
liuely
in
the
hundred
and
third
Psalme
by
comparing
vs
to
grasse
and
to
a
flower
of
the
field
,
Peter
,
Dauid
is
not

you
haue
heard

The
effect
is
,
that
all

returne

whence
they
came

That
is
,
we
dy
by
sword
,
pestilence
,
famin
,
imprisonment
,
colde
,
heate
,
yea
by
a
thousand
meanes
,
which
God
can
and
will
deuise
,
as
Dauid
hath
set
down
for
al
men
,
especially
as
it
is
ment
in
our
Text
against
Princes
and
Potentates
of
this
world
.
And
to
begin
with
Saul
,
did
hee
not
desperatly
kill
himselfe
?
as
Dauid
here
talketh
in
battle
,
but
yet
by
the
hand
of
the
Lord
,
and
indeede
extraordinarily
by
his
owne
hand
?
It
is
reason
that
mightie
men
should
mightily
suffer
tormentes
,
according
as
it
is
written
,
and
also
Saint
Austine
hath
a
notable
place
:
Let
the
king
know
,
that
as
he
is
ordained
chiefe
in
his
throne
aboue
all
men
:
so
in
punishment
if
hee
doe
not
iustice
,
he
shal
haue
the
chiefe-dom
,
and
first
place
.
And
in
another
book
,
Scipio
,
Annibal
,
Philopaemen
,
that
al
three
in
one
year
died
,
but
nether
died
nor
were
buried
in
their
own
country
.
Suidas
telleth
of
Thulis
King
of
al
AEgypt
vnto
the
Ocean
sea
,
that
builded
an
Ilande
of
his
owne
name
,
that
asked
the
Oracle
of
Serapis
:
Tel
me
who
before
me
could
doe
such
actes
,
and
who
shal
doe
after
me
?
The
Oracle
was
,
〈◊〉
〈◊〉
〈◊〉
〈◊〉
〈◊〉
.
That
is
,
in
effect
,
that
first
God
the
father
,
next
the
woord
and
his
sonne
,
and
with
them
the
holy
ghost
,
the
blessed
Trinity
in
vnity
did
raigne
before
,
&
should
after
euerlastingly
:
but
for
himself
hee
was
willed
speedily
to
depart
,
and
immediatly
after
the
Oracle
,
was
slaine
,
〈◊〉
〈◊〉
〈◊〉
〈◊〉
〈◊〉
,
of
his
owne
people
.
What
are
all
these
mighty
men
but
the
Gourd
that
was
giuen
to
Ionas
for
a
shadowe
to
sport
himselfe
for
a
time
,
Magnensius
,
Constantius
,
Decentius
,
Gallus
,
Syluanus
,
Iulian.
We
haue
in
Egesyppus
a
marueilous
History
of
Aristobulus
King
of
the
Iewes
,
not
only
for
his
persecution
of
the
good
,
but
also
for
the
murder
of
his
brother
,
in
body
and
in
conscience
fore
afflicted
,
his
blood
gushing
out
:
Thou
hast
thirsted
after
bloode
,
and
now
thou
shalt
drinke
thy
belly
ful
of
blood
.
What
brags
are
giuen
out
in
euery
cornet
against
poor
Protestants
in
England
,
in
France
,
Flanders
,
and
Geneua
,
as
though
al
were
on
their
side
,
as
though
they
were
Gods
vpon
the
earth
?
They
haue
their
fore-fathers
whome
they
imitate
very
braue
and
glorious
in
threats
,
I
wil
pursue
,
I
wil
ouertake
them
,
I
will
diuide
the
spoile
,
my
lust
shal
be
satisfied
.
But
the
Lord
blew
with
his
wind
,
Let
not
him
that
girdeth
his
harneise
,
bost
himself
,
as
he
that
putteth
it
off
.
Soueraigne
Queene
Elizabeth
,
and
against
our
country
the
smoke
of
threats
:
but
God
bee
praised
,
no
flame
that
could
annoy
vs
.
Wee
haue
had
among
vs
the
brags
of
the
Pompcian
souldidurs
,
that
haue
made
a
reckoning
of
the
spoile
of
vs
at
,
&
diuision
of
our
liuings
among
themselues
,
but
they
were
but
only
brags
:
for
why
?
the
lot
is
cast
into
the
lap
,
but
the
whole
disposition
thereof
is
of
the
Lord
.
Therfore
let
al
men
take
heed
how
they
wast
of
a
day
,
whether
it
bee
in
the
sommer
or
winter
,
whether
it
be
in
the
yeare
eighty
seuen
or
eighty
eight
,
whether
they
be
forreiners
abroad
,
or
cuntrymen
at
home
:
Let
them
harken
to
wise
Salomon
:
Boast
not
thy self
of
to
morrow
,
for
thou
knowest
not
what
a
daie
may
bring
forth
.
Al
the
wicked
persecutours
,
traitours
,
rebels
knowe
not
when
they
beginne
,
what
shal
bee
their
end
.
Looke
in
the
booke
of
the
Kinges
,
home
many
died
losing
Kingdome
and
life
in
the
space
of
three
and
thirty
yeares
?
Otho
,
Galba
,
Vitellius
.
To
be
short
,
I
say
to
them
,
That
hee
was
affraid
,
not
that
he
should
not
be
punished
,
but
that
he
himselfe
should
not
see
it
.
But
yet
perhaps
Eloquent
men
may
scape
this
death
?
Nay
Cicero
,
But
I
trow
the
Popes
holinesse
cannot
be
touched
with
any
dart
of
death
,
The
Bishop
of
Rome
,
although
hee
passe
al
mortall
men
in
dignity
and
authority
,
and
can
bind
,
and
lose
al
things
in
earth
:
yet
can
he
not
loose
himself
out
of
the
bonds
of
fatal
necessity
.
The
scholer
is
not
aboue
his
Master
,
and
therefore
he
willeth
him
to
think
,
that
although
he
be
the
greatest
man
,
yet
hee
is
a
mortal
man
,
and
biddeth
him
remember
the
forme
of
his
consecration
,
which
is
after
this
sort
:
When
the
newe
Pope
is
chosen
,
and
Te
Deum
song
,
and
he
newly
,
and
Pontifically
reuestred
,
and
his
hands
and
feete
kissed
,
euen
then
in
all
this
solemnity
and
glory
a
Clerk
or
Master
of
the
Ceremonies
setteth
tow
on
fier
(
after
the
Pope
is
come
out
of
the
Chappell
of
Gregory
)
and
kneeling
downe
singeth
with
a
loud
voice
:
Recedant
vetera
,
noua
sunt
omnia
:
Away
with
these
oulde
things
,
al
are
now
new
:
As
Thomas
Walsingham
declareth
at
large
in
the
Coronation
of
Pope
Martine
.
Prince
Elizabeth
?
Were
they
not
indeede
Bullae
?
Bubbles
of
water
:
The
great
whore
of
Babylon
,
whose
cup
is
ful
of
abhominations
&
fornications
,
who
hath
her selfe
been
dronke
with
the
blood
of
Saints
,
O
Laches
,
Laches
,
when
thou
art
dead
,
thou
shalt
bee
called
againe
Cerylus
,
as
before
.
So
I
say
of
Pope
Iohn
,
Ioan
:
Sergius
shal
be
Os
Porci
,
hogs-mouth
.
Iulius
the
second
shal
be
Iulian
agiane
.
Leo
the
tenth
shal
be
Iohn
againe
.
Iulius
the
third
shall
bee
Iohn
Marie
.
Paul
the
fourth
shal
be
Iohn
Peter
Gregory
the
thirteenth
shall
bee
Bone-Companion
,
Sixtus
Quintus
a
poore
mans
sonne
borne
in
a
little
village
,
though
an
high
name
,
Alto-monte
,
though
now
lifted
vp
to
the
Popedome
,
Faelix
Perenettus
againe
.
They
al
shal
be
of
Lordes
seruants
,
of
Popes
poore
Priests
,
nay
of
men
,
earth
,
and
wormes
meat
.
They
shal
be
successors
of
this
Saul
,
as
in
persecuting
Dauid
,
and
in
murdering
Abimelech
,
and
the
Priestes
of
the
lord
,
I
meane
the
Princes
,
and
the
Preachers
whom
the
Lorde
hath
annointed
and
called
:
Euen
so
of
his
death
either
smiten
of
God
,
or
when
their
day
commeth
to
dy
,
or
when
they
shal
descend
into
bloody
battles
,
as
many
Martial
Popes
haue
done
.
Although
the
enemies
glorye
against
the
Godly
,
Iulius
Caesar
a
natural
&
an
heathen
man
,
when
Pompey
fled
into
AEgypt
,
and
was
beheaded
at
the
commaundement
of
Prolomei
for
his
sake
:
Darius
.
Antoninus
desired
that
no
Senatour
or
counsailour
in
the
time
of
his
Empire
should
be
slaine
,
that
his
Empire
might
not
be
stained
.
Hee
was
not
much
offended
with
the
defection
or
reuoulting
of
Cassius
,
neither
did
hee
exercise
tyranny
against
his
children
,
but
although
the
Councel
did
punish
him
,
as
before
it
was
touched
,
yet
the
author
saith
,
Christian
Princes
and
rulers
:
Constantine
,
as
it
is
written
by
Eusebius
,
was
very
carefull
for
the
commonweal
,
William
Conquerour
,
that
euen
in
his
death
bed
hee
repented
him
of
many
things
,
Augustus
Caesar
by
Ouid
,
vnto
him
,
Sit
piger
adpaenas
Princeps
,
adpraemia
velox
,
Quique
doler
quoties
cogiture
esse
ferox
.
The
same
verses
may
be
more
iustly
applied
vnto
our
Augusta
,
who
to
punish
hath
been
most
slow
:
to
pleasure
,
&
to
do
good
most
ready
,
and
when
she
must
needs
be
seuere
,
it
grieueth
her
.
I
neede
not
exemplifie
it
,
they
are
fresh
in
memory
.
How
vnwilling
was
shee
to
consent
to
the
beheading
of
the
Duke
of
Northfolke
?
I
am
now
to
make
vp
my
general
,
that
all
must
dy
,
The
righteous
perisheth
,
and
no
man
considereth
it
in
his
heart
,
the
merciful
men
are
taken
away
,
and
no
man
vnderstandeth
it
,
as
the
Prophet
saith
.
Mark
I
beseech
you
,
mark
you
that
loue
chaunges
,
how
perilous
they
are
:
What
good
commeth
by
the
good
Princes
:
what
losse
commeth
by
their
departure
.
Augustine
writeth
:
Chronicles
.
Alexander
the
great
is
called
of
Daniel
a
mighty
King
:
but
his
King
dome
was
diuided
towards
the
4
winds
of
heauen
,
&
not
to
his
posterity
,
Solon
,
Lycurgus
&
others
:
who
now
rule
there
but
Turkes
&
Infidels
?
After
the
death
of
William
Conquerour
came
famine
,
pestilence
,
thundring
,
&
lightening
&
flashes
in
heauen
,
fires
in
England
,
as
a
certaine
Prognostication
of
miseries
and
ruful
calamities
in
Rufus
time
.
Therefore
,
that
I
may
drawe
to
an
end
,
and
to
the
conclusion
of
Dauids

The
Lord
keepe
me
from
laying
mine
hand
vpon
the
Lords
annointed
but
,
I
pray
thee
,
take
now
the
spear
that
is
at
his
head
,
and
the
pot
of
water
,
and
let
vs
go
hence
.

So
Dauid
tooke
the
spear
and
the
pot
of
water
from
Sauls
head
,
and
they
gate
them
away
,
&
no
man
saw
it
,
nor
marked
it
,
neither
did
any
awake
,
but
they
were
al
asleep
:
for
the
Lord
had
sent
a
dead
sleep
vpon
them
.
THE
SEVENTH
SERMON
.
FOR
the
better
vnderstanding
of
this
text
,
and
of
all
that
which
I
haue
to
say
in
this
place
,
I
must
in
few
woordes
repeat
and
rippe
vp
that
which
went
before
.
At
this
time
I
purpose
to
proceede
,
first
in
the
proofe
of
the
reason
,
&
so
nextly
to
intreat
of
the
last
part
.
It
is
a
scruple
or
question
nowe
in
these
daies
,
who
bee
the
successours
of
Abishai
in
these
mischieuous
,
and
malicious
conspiracies
against
Princes
.
Staphylus
seemeth
to
burden
Luther
,
that
he
commandeth
subiects
to
rebel
,
Ecclesiasticus
,
Who
so
casteth
a
stone
on
high
,
casteth
it
vpon
his
owne
head
.
Such
cutters
and
casters
you
shal
find
the
Popes
of
Rome
to
be
.
Reinerus
Reineccius
saith
,
that
Helmoldus
granteth
the
Popes
to
haue
been
oftentimes
,
Bellorum
&
aliorum
seditiosorum
motuum
tubas
:
Bellum
in
domo
Petri
,
There
was
war
in
the
house
of
Peter
,
betweene
the
Cleargy
and
the
communalty
,
there
was
no
difference
,
the
sword
deuoured
them
al.
The
house
of
holinesse
is
filled
with
Carcases
,
riuers
of
blood
ran
out
of
the
heapes
of
deade
men
▪
so
that
the
waters
of
Tyber
were
chaunged
into
the
coulor
of
bloode
,
the
Cardinals
were
tied
in
chaines
and
ropes
hanged
about
their
neckes
and
the
Pope
taken
prisoner
.
For
this
fact
against
himselfe
,
the
Pope
could
cal
him
a
wicked
,
a
bloody
,
a
false
man
:
for
this
hee
cursed
him
,
and
in
a
councel
of
Bishops
his
priuileges
giuen
him
before
,
were
named
prauileges
,
&
taken
from
him
:
but
the
childe
depriuing
his
father
of
crowne
and
life
was
by
the
same
Pope
accompted
his
white
sonne
.
O
wicked
child
,
which
for
greedines
of
a
Kingdome
dooth
persecute
,
and
prosecute
with
hatred
and
sword
him
,
by
whom
he
hath
receiued
both
life
&
roial
dignity
.
So
he
was
cursed
on
euery
side
,
He
should
neuer
thriue
after
,
nor
see
peace
in
his
daies
,
nor
get
a
child
to
sit
in
his
throne
after
him
.
But
this
horrible
sin
of
treason
&
rebellion
,
I
haue
proued
to
be
in
al
places
,
by
all
lawes
,
of
al
Kings
condemned
:
to
which
I
ad
here
these
proofes
for
a
further
fortification
.
Know
ye
not
that
there
is
a
Prince
,
and
a
great
man
fallen
this
day
in
Israel
?
If
Abner
be
so
lamented
,
how
much
more
lamentable
had
been
the
death
of
Dauid
?
Banaah
&
Rechab
did
stay
Ishbosheth
the
son
of
Saul
,
Lucius
Sylla
would
faine
haue
Sulpitius
Rufus
destroied
:
but
when
he
perceiued
vpon
his
proclamation
that
he
was
hid
in
a
village
,
and
betraid
by
his
owne
seruant
,
hee
gaue
this
parricide
freedom
,
according
to
promise
in
his
Edict
,
I
spake
before
of
Fraunce
,
of
Flaunders
,
and
of
others
.
Tertullian
,
Bonus
vir
Caius
Seius
,
Caius
Seius
is
a
good
man
,
but
he
is
an
il
man
,
only
because
hee
is
a
Christian
man
.
And
another
saith
,
and
confesseth
Lucius
to
bee
a
wise
man
,
but
sodenly
made
a
Christian
man
:
the
one
they
cannot
but
praise
,
the
other
they
tel
as
newes
,
of
dispraise
.
I
say
with
Tertullian
:
They
praise
chose
things
that
they
know
,
they
dispraise
those
thinges
that
they
knowe
not
,
and
that
thing
which
they
doe
knowe
because
they
know
not
,
they
doe
corrupt
and
man
:
Our
Religion
is
forsooth
a
cause
of
their
rebellion
:
therefore
our
Countrymen
at
home
are
our
enemies
.
Is
this
newes
to
you
?
You
knowe
,
my
Brethren
,
that
it
is
an
ould
grudge
,
an
auncient
offense
,
and
scandal
.
You
know
,
many
shal
be
Offended
with
Christ
.
Christ
shal
bee
the
stone
of
offense
,
and
the
rocke
of
scandal
.
The
stone
cast
away
of
the
builders
and
Priests
,
set
to
be
the
ruine
&
resurrection
of
many
.
Christ
,
and
Christes
annointed
haue
this
portion
,
the
inheritaunce
of
the
Crosse
,
euen
for
Christes
Crosse
sake
.
The
Kinges
of
the
earth
bande
themselues
,
and
the
Princes
are
assembled
together
against
the
Lorde
,
and
against
his
Christ
.
How
many
rise
against
mee
?
The
Prince
and
the
Prophet
haue
this
lot
:
King
Cyrus
had
displeasure
of
the
Babylonians
for
defending
Daniel
,
&
his
religion
.
They
say
,
the
King
is
become
a
Iewe
,
he
hath
abolished
Bel
,
killed
the
dragon
,
slain
Priests
,
and
they
flocke
together
to
the
King
,
saying
:
Giue
vs
Daniel
,
or
woe
will
kil
thee
with
all
thy
house
.
to
his
God
.
As
Daniel
,
so
the
rest
of
the
Apostles
and
Prophets
,
and
why
?
Serpens
hostis
est
,
contrarius
veritati
,
Which
of
the
Prophetes
haue
not
your
fathers
persecuted
,
smd●
blessed
Stephen
,
and
therefore
was
stoned
:
The
Propher
Icremy
was
mocked
continually
,
stricken
of
the
Priest
Pashur
,
Because
you
cast
vs
out
,
&
iudge
your selues
vnworthy
of
euenlasting
life
,
behold
we
turn
to
the
Gentils
.
The
Gospell
could
haue
no
place
,
miracles
could
take
no
effect
,
in
Christs
countrie
,
whereof
he
complaineth
in
his
Euangelisles
,
Matthe
we
,
Marke
,
and
Luke
.
I
speake
not
this
of
you
,
dearelie
beloued
,
whose
zeale
in
Religion
is
knowne
,
and
I
hope
will
continue
,
and
increase
more
and
more
:
but
I
speak
it
with
griefe
of
minde
,
by
this
common
practise
and
experience
oftimes
,
fearing
our
countrimen
that
euen
now
begin
to
reuolt
in
hart
,
and
a
great
number
in
bodie
,
who
withdraw
themselues
from
our
Church
,
from
our
Sermons
and
Seruice
,
and
Sacramentes
;
and
from
their
obedience
t●
God
&
their
Prince
,
and
from
all
pierie
towar●s
their
P●●ia●●
and
Country
,
As
Dauld
hither
to
hath
made
a
prohibition
to
Abishai
,
The
Lord
keepe
me
for
laying
mine
hands
vpon
the
Lordes
annointed
:
So
now
he
goeth
forward
with
his
politick
and
prouident
resolution
,
beginning
here
.
I
pray
thee
take
now
the
speare
that
is
at
his
head
,
and
the
pot
of
water
,
and
let
vs
go
hence
,
and
so
foorth
,
as
you
may
see
in
the
eleuenth
&
twelfth
verses
:
&
this
is
the
third
part
of
Dauids
aunswere
,
and
of
my
diuision
.
In
which
part
as
many
good
notes
may
be
made
,
and
many
pointes
of
doctrine
may
bee
gathered
:
as
Dauids
humble
request
to
Abishai
,
and
his
poliey
,
in
taking
away
the
spear
and
the
pot
,
for
considerations
,
and
the
drowsines
of
the
enemies
:
so
I
rest
only
vpon
this
common
place
,
the
Prouidence
of
God
,
&
that
threefold
,
taken
out
of
the
circumstances
,
First
out
of
the
person
of
Saul
:
Secondly
out
of
the
person
of
Dauid
and
Abishai
:
Sauls
person
ministreth
occasion
to
intreat
of
the
protection
of
Princes
,
&
of
the
singular
prouidence
of
God
,
which
is
a
reason
forcible
to
penswade
all
euill
and
ob●●inate
men
,
Who
made
thee
Prince
and
iudge
ouer
vs
?
There
was
a
wicked
Belial
Sheba
that
blewe
a
Trumpet
to
sturre
the
people
,
We
haue
no
part
in
Dauid
,
neither
haue
inheriance
in
the
son
of
Ishai
.
Let
vs
kill
the
heire
.
All
this
winde
shaketh
no
corne
,
Triticum
non
rapit
ventus
,
The
Lord
,
saith
he
,
is
my
rock
&
my
fortresse
.
They
haue
spred
a
net
,
and
they
haue
sought
my
life
,
and
yet
this
dead
dog
,
this
little
flea
hath
gods
passeport
and
warrant
for
himselfe
.
I
haue
found
Dauid
my
seruaunt
,
with
my
holy
oile
haue
I
annointed
him
,
therefore
mine
hand
shall
helpe
him
,
and
mine
arme
shall
strengthen
him
:
the
enemy
shal
not
oppresse
him
,
nor
the
wicked
hurt
him
.
This
comfortable
warrant
reacheth
vnto
all
Princes
that
fear
God
.
It
is
recorded
in
an
oration
made
at
the
request
of
Queen
Elizabeth
,
in
Bonsinius
his
story
of
Hungary
:
We
must
vndoubtedly
beleeue
that
al
power
is
giuen
to
men
of
God
&
who
can
withstand
the
wil
of
God
?
Cyrus
an
infant
was
cast
out
of
dores
.
Romulus
with
Rhemus
was
cast
into
Tyber
.
Seruius
Tullius
was
borne
of
a
seruant
and
captiue
mother
;
and
yet
they
coulde
not
bee
staied
or
stopped
by
any
violence
,
but
that
they
must
obtaine
those
Kingdomes
,
to
the
which
they
were
borne
and
predestinated
.
The
prouidence
and
predestination
of
God
are
vnchaungeable
and
vnmoueable
both
for
comming
to
Principalities
,
and
for
keeping
their
holds
:
which
is
so
certaine
,
that
neither
force
nor
frand
,
neither
●●iue
action
of
Diuels
,
nor
conspiration
of
men
can
breake
or
interrupt
this
appointed
course
of
God
.
Constantine
the
Great
writeth
vnto
Sapor
the
King
of
the
Persianes
to
be
fauourable
to
Christians
,
Wee
doe
not
so
worship
God
,
nor
so
liue
,
that
Cassius
a
Traytour
should
ouercome
vs
.
The
assuraunce
that
was
made
vnto
Vespasian
in
this
doctrine
of
Prouidence
was
woonderfull
,
when
two
noble
men
were
conuiceed
for
conspiracy
against
him
,
aspiring
to
the
Empire
:
he
did
nothing
else
but
warne
them
;
that
they
should
surcease
,
affirming
,
Principatum
Fato
dari
:
Principality
to
bee
giuen
by
the
decree
of
God
.
These
men
he
did
not
onely
famliarly
admicte
to
his
Supper
,
but
also
the
next
day
in
the
shewe
,
and
play
of
Fensers
or
sword-plaiers
,
he
set
them
for
the
●once
about
him
,
Saxo
Grammaticus
declareth
how
Canutus
and
Charles
,
and
diuers
others
went
about
to
kil
the
King
of
Danes
,
Waldemarus
,
who
both
with
others
their
complices
beeing
familiar
in
the
court
,
and
neere
vnto
the
King
a
person
,
and
one
of
them
alone
sometime
with
him
attending
vpon
his
chariot
,
Lodowick
Maleanus
distressed
by
a
rebell
Arteualda
(
of
whose
ende
I
spake
of
before
)
and
by
some
souldiors
of
Gaunt
being
of
that
conspiracy
,
sought
for
,
he
was
hid
by
a
woman
in
a
poore
bedde
,
where
her
little
children
did
ly
:
This
woman
was
woont
to
sitte
at
the
Counte
his
gate
,
for
au
almes
:
one
of
the
souldiours
tooke
a
candle
,
and
looked
narrowely
in
euery
corner
,
and
after
his
search
returneth
to
his
fellowes
,
and
saith
:
Let
vs
goe
,
wee
leese
time
,
here
is
none
,
besides
her
little
ones
:
so
as
the
author
writeth
,
this
woman
as
another
Rahab
saued
the
Earle
:
Ita
sola
voluntate
Numinis
seruatus
Comes
,
qui
haec
omnia
nudiuit
verba
,
so
by
the
onely
will
of
God
the
Earle
was
saued
,
Chr.
li.
20.
and
heard
al
these
words
.
God
did
also
prouide
marueilously
for
Charles
the
fift
,
as
Massaeus
witnesseth
.
It
is
well
knowen
,
his
owne
courtiours
sometimes
by
poyson
,
sometimes
by
other
treason
went
about
to
destroy
him
but
the
Lorde
presented
him
.
King
Henry
the
fourth
him
many
conspiratours
,
and
this
one
●aspitu●y
was
most
notable
.
The
ship
(
saith
Chrysostom
)
can
neuer
passe
the
waues
of
the
sea
without
a
gouernour
:
a
souldiour
can
doe
no
great
exploite
without
the
conduct
of
a
captaine
,
and
house
is
not
built
,
vnlesse
there
bee
one
to
build
it
:
and
can
this
large
and
vnmeasureable
world
,
can
the
ornaments
of
these
elements
be
moued
casually
or
rashly
?
Is
there
none
that
can
moderate
them
,
and
knoweth
by
his
wisedome
to
keepe
and
preserue
them
?
Whereupon
I
gather
this
conclusion
:
He
that
ruleth
,
and
v●doeth
these
superiour
and
iuferiour
things
,
he
that
maketh
the
world
,
&
maketh
an
end
therof
,
must
make
and
marre
the
Mouarches
of
the
world
,
and
therefore
bould
fooles
are
they
,
that
go
about
to
rule
,
or
ouerrule
,
or
vnrule
them
.
The
prouidence
of
God
appeareth
also
in
the
person
of
Dauid
,
O
Lord
,
how
long
shal
I
cry
,
and
thou
wilt
not
hear
?
And
Icremy
,
Why
happeneth
that
the
way
of
the
wicked
dooth
prosper
?
Ionas
:
Lord
take
my
life
from
me
.
Iob
:
What
profit
shal
we
haue
,
if
we
serue
and
pray
to
him
?
So
Malachie
also
,
Hind
quo
libet
abi
securus
.
Goe
thy
way
front
hence
whither
thou
wilt
safe
and
secure
.
It
is
not
amisse
that
is
said
of
Thomas
Aquine
,
defining
Prouidence
after
this
sort
:
Prouidence
is
,
which
to
things
foreknown
by
God
&
in
his
wisedome
ordained
ministreth
that
thing
,
which
may
keep
&
vphold
that
order
,
&
remoueth
away
al
disorder
or
inordination
,
that
is
,
taketh
away
all
that
may
hinder
it
,
&
so
directeth
al
things
,
that
the
last
end
proposed
by
him
,
may
be
archiued
.
Whereby
the
Princes
come
to
their
Kingdoms
,
&
continue
al
the
prefixed
time
without
hinderaunce
,
and
the
Preachers
run
their
race
,
and
keepe
on
their
course
without
interruption
of
man
or
diuel
.
Esay
the
Prophet
continued
in
spite
of
his
enemies
,
about
fourscore
years
:
Polycarpus
fourscore
&
six
.
Iewes
,
Let
vs
,
say
they
,
destroy
the
tree
with
the
fruit
therof
,
&
cut
him
out
of
the
lande
of
the
liuing
:
but
yet
Gods
decree
was
otherwise
:
that
the
men
of
Anathoth
should
dye
with
the
sworde
,
and
they
that
sought
his
life
,
&
would
not
hear
his
prophecy
in
the
name
of
the
Lord
,
Be
not
affraid
of
their
faces
,
for
I
am
with
thee
.
Daniel
was
cast
by
the
Babylonians
into
the
den
of
Lyons
,
and
yet
he
taught
mo
then
seuenty
years
.
All
men
haue
forsaken
me
,
but
the
Lord
assisted
me
,
&
strengthned
me
,
that
by
me
the
preaching
might
be
fully
known
,
and
that
al
the
Gentiles
should
heare
and
I
was
deliuered
out
of
the
mouth
of
the
Lyon
.
He
neuer
left
preaching
from
Ierusalem
to
Illyricum
,
Spain
&
Italy
,
&
was
neuer
offred
to
death
,
til
the
time
of
his
dissoluing
came
,
&
then
he
did
worthily
say
of
himself
:
I
haue
fought
a
good
fight
,
I
haue
finished
my
course
,
I
haue
kept
the
faith
.
Bee
therefore
of
good
comfort
my
brethren
,
Preach
the
word
,
be
instant
in
season
&
out
of
season
,
reproue
,
rebuke
,
exhort
with
al
long
suffering
&
doctrine
,
for
the
times
are
come
that
he
telleth
of
,
that
man
wil
not
suffer
wholesome
doctrine
,
yet
nothing
can
hurt
or
stay
you
,
vntill
you
come
to
your
iourneies
ende
,
not
only
you
,
but
all
other
godly
of
this
realme
.
This
Church
of
England
,
is
as
mount
Sion
vnmooueable
,
it
shall
haue
the
Queen
to
be
her
Nurse
,
the
gooly
gouernors
,
the
faithful
ministers
during
the
time
set
down
in
God
his
decree
.
Though
Sion
say
,
the
Lord
hath
forsaken
me
,
yet
the
lord
wil
be
more
tender
than
a
woman
ouer
her
child
,
nay
he
assureth
vs
that
he
hath
grauen
vs
vpon
the
palme
of
his
hands
,
and
that
our
wals
are
euer
in
his
sight
,
though
the
diuel
watcheth
for
vs
,
seeking
,
&
running
about
like
a
roaring
Lion
,
Bernard
,
He
doth
make
it
fruitfull
,
hee
encreaseth
it
,
cutteth
it
,
purgeth
it
,
that
it
may
bring
forth
more
fruit
:
for
howe
can
he
leaue
it
destitute
of
his
care
,
&
trauel
,
seing
that
his
right
hand
hath
planted
it
?
Only
let
vs
see
that
it
bee
not
barren
by
our
negligence
,
and
then
leaue
all
the
rest
to
his
prouidence
.
The
third
kind
of
Prouidence
may
appeare
by
the
circumstance
of
the
place
.
O
that
we
had
bin
dead
in
AEgypt
when
we
sate
at
the
flesh-pots
,
when
we
eate
bread
our
bellies
ful
,
now
you
haue
brought
vs
into
this
wildernes
,
to
kil
this
whole
congregation
with
famine
and
hunger
.
Are
there
not
in
England
,
Abraham
,
Isaac
&
Iacob
in
strange
places
found
a
straunge
goodnes
of
God
for
their
prouision
,
which
is
not
vnknowen
vnto
you
.
Ierome
expoundeth
a
prouerb
among
the
Hebrues
:
In
monte
dominus
videbit
.
i.
prouidebit
.
God
wil
in
the
mount
prouide
for
his
,
euen
as
he
prouided
for
Isaac
a
Ramme
in
steed
of
Isaac
.
As
God
had
mercy
vpon
Abraham
,
so
he
wil
haue
mercy
vpon
vs
.
And
therefore
in
signe
of
this
Ram
giuen
,
the
Iewes
are
wont
euen
this
day
to
blow
their
horn
.
He
that
prouided
for
Agar
,
and
for
Ismael
the
boy
,
and
cast
away
for
lacke
of
help
of
man
,
in
wildernes
:
He
that
fed
Elias
by
crowes
,
by
a
widdow
,
by
Angels
:
and
Daniel
by
Abacuc
:
He
that
was
able
by
Elizeus
to
heal
the
waters
infected
:
He
that
saued
Ionas
in
the
whales
belly
:
He
that
with
a
few
loaues
&
fishes
satisfied
such
a
multitude
:
he
hath
not
,
he
wil
not
forsake
you
that
professe
his
word
and
practise
accordingly
,
any
Aegypt
shall
bee
scourged
,
But
here
I
pray
you
mark
,
Hee
that
giueth
food
to
cattle
,
&
to
the
young
Rauens
meat
,
he
giueth
it
to
them
in
their
manner
calling
vpon
him
,
conteret
sathanam
Deus
sub
pedibus
.
God
will
treade
sathan
,
vnder
the
feete
of
them
that
striue
for
piety
,
and
godlinesse
.
The
same
Origen
giueth
vs
good
confort
,
but
conditional
.
If
we
want
not
weapons
wherwith
the
Apostle
willeth
vs
to
be
armed
,
all
other
dartes
cannot
pearce
vs
.
If
we
haue
the
armor
of
God
,
the
brest
plate
of
righteousnes
,
the
sword
of
the
spirite
,
and
aboue
al
the
shield
of
faith
.
Basil
saith
,
No
munition
,
or
Martiall
puislaunce
,
no
walles
of
cities
,
no
army
of
horse
men
,
nor
power
of
foot
men
,
no
preparation
of
ships
saue
a
King
:
for
God
doth
appoint
Kings
and
disappoint
and
depose
.
Exalt
not
your
horne
,
Religion
and
Piety
,
must
be
our
onely
safety
and
preseruation
:
for
against
the
godly
man
,
neither
malignant
diuel
,
neither
any
destiny
can
preuaile
.
So
writeth
an
auncient
author
Mercurie
Trismegistus
in
Lactantius
.
Dearly
beloued
,
let
vs
be
only
religious
,
and
god
alone
will
succour
and
shield
vs
,
because
Dauid
here
feared
God
,
reuerenced
the
person
of
Saul
,
because
Abishai
beeing
better
aduised
,
was
content
to
bee
ruled
with
a
woorde
of
Dauid
:
you
see
how
the
Lord
did
prouide
for
them
.
Be
hee
Frenchman
,
or
Spaniard
,
Iew
or
Turk
,
he
cannot
hurt
or
harme
vs
in
this
case
,
But
now
,
my
Brethren
,
as
on
Gods
part
al
is
certaine
and
sure
,
Esa.

The
stop
of
Gods
prouidence
our
sinne
.
For
neither
his
hande
is
shortned
that
he
cannot
saue
,
neither
his
eare
heauy
that
it
cannot
hear
:
so
on
our
side
al
the
danger
is
to
be
feared
.
Your
sins
haue
separated
becween
you
and
your
god
,
saith
the
same
Prophet
.
Sin
maketh
this
diuision
:
Ammonite
to
Holofernes
:
If
there
be
any
fault
in
this
people
,
so
that
they
haue
sinned
against
their
God
,
this
shal
be
their
ruine
.
Let
vs
goe
vp
and
we
shal
ouercome
:
but
if
there
be
none
iniquity
in
this
people
,
let
my
Lord
passe
by
,
least
their
Lord
defend
them
,
and
wee
become
a
reproch
.
Al
euil
men
&
sinners
,
al
sinful
Kingdoms
and
nations
though
planted
by
him
,
yet
shal
be
plucked
vp
by
him
,
and
they
shall
be
all
out
of
Gods
protection
,
as
it
is
written
:
I
wil
speak
sodenly
concerning
a
nation
,
and
concerning
a
Kingdom
to
build
it
&
to
plant
it
,
but
if
it
do
euill
in
my
sight
,
and
hear
not
my
voice
,
I
wil
repent
of
the
good
that
I
ment
to
them
.
Esay
,
I
saw
the
lord
,
What
is
the
cause
,
that
matters
of
the
common
weal
do
not
go
forward
wel
?
that
they
are
not
in
a
better
case
?
The
people
answer
,
by
the
ouersight
&
carelesnes
of
Magistrats
,
that
bear
office
,
but
Chrysostome
replieth
:
It
is
not
the
carelesnes
of
Princes
,
but
ourvnrighteousnes
,
punishment
is
exacted
for
our
sins
,
those
sins
do
turn
&
tumble
al
things
vpside-down
.
They
haue
brought
in
all
calamities
whatsoeuer
,
they
haue
armed
enimies
:
And
a
little
after
he
demandeth
thus
:
Why
so
?
If
the
Prince
bee
a
transgressor
of
Lawes
,
our
rashnes
&
rudenes
,
our
offenses
haue
procured
this
plague
.
And
againe
:
Although
the
Prince
be
iust
,
yea
as
iust
and
as
vertuous
as
Moses
:
yet
could
not
the
righteousnes
of
that
one
man
couer
the
manifold
sinnes
of
so
many
rebelles
,
neither
coulde
the
praier
of
Moses
chaunge
the
iust
sentence
of
God
.
O
that
we
were
pure
in
Gods
sight
,
as
our
religion
is
pure
out
of
his
word
!
Such
were
the
old
Christians
our
cuntrymen
in
the
time
of
Constantine
,
of
whom
he
giueth
this
report
:
I
come
not
hither
to
be
Momus
,
or
to
wish
a
window
into
euery
mans
hart
and
conscience
,
to
see
euery
mans
secret
faults
.
I
would
there
were
not
too
many
,
too
open
in
the
sight
of
the
worlde
,
to
the
great
displeasure
of
Almighty
God
:
of
which
giue
me
leaue
to
speake
a
little
,
that
we
may
not
loose
the
sweetnes
of
this
doctrine
,
and
the
fauour
of
our
God
,
and
the
protection
of
this
Realme
.
But
we
must
needs
loose
it
,
if
we
doe
not
hereafter
repent
vs
:
and
euery
man
in
his
calling
walk
accordingly
.
Though
man
wincke
,
Yet
God
seeth
,
&
wil
visit
the
sins
of
this
land
,
which
draw
on
with
cartropes
our
speedy
destruction
.
In
the
beginning
of
the
world
,
at
the
first
fal
of
Adam
God
steppeth
out
to
iudgement
,
and
iudicially
proceedeth
against
him
,
and
his
wife
,
and
the
serpent
:
&
will
he
not
now
in
the
end
of
the
world
serue
the
same
processe
against
vs
:
Wil
he
not
say
to
euery
one
of
vs
,
Adam
,
where
art
thou
?

Hee
promised
vnto
Waldemarus
King
of
Denmark
present
help
,
he
commandeth
all
to

out
of

the
folly
of

compelleth
me
,
but
after
he
hath
been
fed
vp
,
and
growen
big
by
me
,
he
wil
first
turne
against

,
his

cannot
be
chaunged

curtesies

Therefore
before

be

This

This

O
King
rise
,
and
haue
care
of
thy
businesse
,
which
Mesoro-Masdes
willeth
thee
:
much
more
ought
our
gouernors
be
carefull
in
publick
affaires
of
the
church
and
the
common
weal
,
&
in
such
things
as
our
God
hath
commanded
.
The
law
of
Canutus
was
,
that
if
the
souldior
appointed
to
watch
&
to
keep
his
standing
,
did
so
sleepe

Scipio
Affricanus
and
others

What

Troia

Saxo

writeth
,
that
ther
is
nothing
more
pernicious

So
Frotho
a
captain
besieging
the
City
Peltisca
,
by
munition
inuincible
,
by
this
policy
took
it
.
For
he
fained
himself
to
be
dead
,
and
in
token
thereof
his
funerals
were
solemnised
:
Iulius
Caesar
,
England
Herald
son
of
Godwine
caused
the
army
of
the
Danes
to
be
slain
in
the
night

when
they
were
fast
asleep
.
In
summe
,
that
which
Bernard
said
of
a
Monk
Dormientem
Monachum
Deo
mortuum
esse
,
nec
sibinec
vlli
vtilem
:
so
generally
we
may
say
,
A
man
sleepy
and
drowsy
is
a
dead
man
,
nether
profitable
to
himselfe
,
nor
to
others
.
I
omit
other
transgressions
of
the
Land
,
as
periury
,
discord
,
dissentions
,
hypocrisie
in
all
estates
,
and
other
sinnes
,
bicause
they
are
not
touched
in
my
Text.
These
and
such
like
sins
abound
&
raign
in
this
Land
.
The
whole
body
is
thus
diseased
and
sick
from
the
sole
of
the
foot
to
the
head
,
as
Esay
complaineth
ful
of
wounds
and
sores
and
botches
.
Iewes
,
Your
Land
is
wast
,
your
cities
are
burnt
,
straungers
deuoure
your
Lande
,
you
shal
creepe
out
of
corners
like
wormes
out
of
their
holes
,
you
shal
be
troden
down
like
myre
in
the
streetes
.
Now
,
dearly
beloued
,
what
remedy
haue
we
to
cure
our selues
from
these
imminent
daungers
?
Iuda
can
haue
no
help
from
AEgypt
,
if
God
bee

there
are

two
