thus
made

so

the

The

And
,
If
the

much

in
he
wasted

that
were
his
,
with
sword
and
fire
,
and
so
of
a
rich
man
,
made
him
poor
and
indigent
.
In
the
very
holy-dayes
,
there
was
a
grievous
warre
kindled
against
the
King
and
his
evill
Counsellors
.
For
Richard
Suard
conjoyning
other
Exiles
to
him
,
entred
the
Lands
of
Earl
of
the
Kings
brother
,
lying
not

from
and
burned
them
,
together
with
the
Houses
,
and
the
Corne
,
the
Oxen
in
the
Ox-stalls
,
the
Horses
in
the
Stables
,
the
Sheep
in

:
they
likewise
burned
the
native
soyl
of
Justiciar
of
with
very
sumptuous
Houses
,
Oxen
,
and
Corne
;
and
likewise
brought
away
many
horses
of
great
price
,
returning
thence
with
spoils
,
and
other
things
.
They
likewise
burned
down
a
certain
village
of
the
Bishop
of
not
farre
from
thence
,
and
took
away
the
spoils
,
with
other
things
there
found
.
But
the
foresaid
Warriers
had
constituted
this
laudable
generall
rule
among
themselves
,
that
they
would
do
no
harme
to
any
one
,
nor
hurt
any
one
by
whom
they
were
banished
;
and
those
things
that
were
theirs
,
they
burnt
with
fire
,
extirpating
their
Woods
,
Orchards
,
and
such
like
by
the
very
Roots
.
This
they
did

I
dare
not
approve
it
,

;
The
King
keeping
his
Christmas
with
the
Queen
,
King
of
and
many
others
at
the
Captain
of
the
Barons
at
the

time
,
preyed
upon
the
Goods
of
these
who
adheared
to
the
King
,
and
especially
those
of
the
Queens
retinue
,
brought
by
her
into
whom
they
called
Aliens
.
Among
others
,
some
of
the
Barons
forces
took
Bishop
of
in
his
Cathedrall
Church
,
and
led
him
prisoner
to
the
Castle
of
and
divided
his
treasure
between
themselves
;
and
took
divers
others
of
the
Kings
partie
prisoners
.
Who
thereupon
fearing
least
he
should
be
besieged
in
the
Tower
by
the
Barons
army
,
by
the
mediation
of
timorous
men
,
he
made
peace
with
the
Barons
for
a
time
;
promising
inviolably
to
observe
the
Provisions
of
that
all
the
Kings
Castles
thoroughout
should
be
delivered
into
the
custody
of
the
Barons
;
that
all
Aliens
within
a
certain
time
should
void
the
Realm
,
except
those
who
should
be
thought
faithfull
thereunto
by
the
unanimous
consent
of
the
Kingdom
,
and
that
faithfull
and
profitable
natives
of
the
Realm
,
should
thenceforth
dispose
of
the
affairs
of
the
Kingdoms
under
the
King
.
But
instigated
with
foeminine
malice
,
contradicted
it
all
she
could
,
which
made
the
people
revile
,
and
cast
dirt
and
stones
at
her
,
as
she
was
going

IT
ALWAYES
HATH

By
whose
words
it
is
cleare
,
that
the
ancient

inferiour
in
Jurisdiction
to
their
whole
kingdomes
and
Parliaments
,
yea
censurable
by
them

Yet
that

,
Nobles
,

so
not
responsible
to

by
them
for
the
grossest
misdemeanours

But
if
this
their
absolute
Monarchy

usurpation

it

they
are

in

,
of
no
greater
Authority
,
nor
no
more
exempted
from
iust
censures
,
then
their
predecessours

Now
it
is
clear
,
that

lost

After

an
accord
was
made
betweene
them

but
the
king
continued
his
old
courses
,
delighting
more
in
the
company
of
lewd
,
irreverent
persons
,
to
eate
and
drink
with
them
,
and
to
heare

after
many
excuses
,
which
might
not

they
lastly
denyed

Wherewithall
he
being
grievously
discontented

removed
divers

put
many
of
the
richest
and
head
men
of

to

upon
surmised
causes

To

the
Inhabitants
of

of
some

there

by

of

respited
,
till
they
had
further
knowledge
of

who
comming
out
of
after
diuers
Skirmishes
,
the
King
and
Lords
fell
to
a
Treaty
of

,
whereupon
Commissioners
on

the

being

spirtuall

in
the
which
the
demands
of

offers
of
the

were
shewed

And
after
the
said
Councell
had
at
length
reasoned
the
said
demands
and
offers
,
it
was
finally
determined
,
To
all
which
the
king
agreed

to
pardon
the
Duke
of
offences
against
his
Majestie

all
such

A

of
Divine
justice

murthered

had
his

shed

spurred
him
on

O
the
admirable
passages

those
two

humour
the
Iesuites

to
secure
their

should
thus
fatally
perish

those
of

Religion

their
unlawfull
revolts

all
allurements
menaces

Where
God
himself
by
way
of
prophesie
of
what
afterwards
should
come
to
passe
,
expresly
declares
,
first
,
that
the
primary
motion

authority

the

into

,
to
creat

make

in

and
the
authority
of

proceeded
meerly
from

the
words

(
four
times
recited
in

Verses
;
)
manifest
beyond
dispute
.
Thirdly
,
that
all

who
had
Kings
,
had
the
like
power
to
create
and
make
their

as
the
words

All
which
is
evi●ently
confirmed
by
on
this
Text
:
The
History
of
the
change
of
their
State
into
a
Kingdom

and
of
their
Iudges
into

added
to
this
Prophesie
and
precept
,
will
leave
no
place
for
any
scruple
.
We
read
in
the
that
the
people
growing
weary
of

judged
them

reason
of
the
ill
government
of

All
these
concurring
sacred
Texts
will
infallibly
demonstrate
,
that
this
change
of
the
Iudges
into
Kings
,
and
the
originall
creation
of
their
Kings
and
kingdoms
proceeded
only
from
the
importunity
and
authority
of
the
people
,
who
would
not
be
gainsaid
herein
,
not
from
Gods
institution
,
or
approbation
,
who
censured
and
disavowed
this
their
motion
,
though
they
at
last
condescended
to
it
;
all
which
is
elegantly
related
,
confirmed
by
By
all
this
it
is
apparent
,
that
the
congregation
and
people
of
the
Iews
had
the
Soveraign
power
in
themselves
,
as
well
as
other
Nations
,
because
the
authoritie
to
alter
the
whole
frame
of
their
former

a
Monarchy
,
resided
in
them
,
though
they
were
taxed

justly

so
uprightly
judged

no
kings
of
their

nor
any
after
Therefore
I
shall
spend
no
more
waste
paper
to
refute
this
palpable
errour
,
so
confidently
asserted
by
parisiticall
Court
Doctors
,
who
make
no
conscience
of
writing
any
,
though
the
grossest
untruths
,
which
may
advance
the
absolute
Soveraign
Arbitrary
tyrannicall
government
of
kings
,
to
oppresse
and
inslave
the
people
.
where
this
is
largely
manifested
This
is
evident
by
direct
Scriptures
,
Here
is
an
expresse
limitation
and
condition
in
respect
of
the
person
of
the
King
;
the
conditions
in
regard
of
his
royall
administration
follow
,
which
are
partly
Negative
,
partly
positive
,
Here
all
the
kings
of
the
Israelites
when
their
kingdoms
should
be
erected
,
are
strictly
bound
by
God
himself
to
negative
and
positive
conditions
,
upon
performance
whereof
,
they
and
their
children
should
prolong
their
dayes
in
the
kingdom
,
and
perpetuate
their
thrones
in
the
midst
of
Israel
,
and
upon
breach
whereof
they
and
their
posterity
should
lose
both
their
lives
and
kingdom
to
;
as
the
last
clause
insinuates
,
and
the
subsequent
Texts
in
direct
terms
averre
.
But
what
if
the
king
should
violate
these
conditions
,
might
the
people
lawfully
resist
him
?
in
his
paraphrase
on
this
very
text
,
which
I
shall
cite
at
large
,
resolves
they
might
(
or
Aristocraticall
government
AND
LET
HIM
DO
NOTHING
WITHOUT
THE
HIGH
PRIESTS
AND
SENATES
ADVICE
expresly
resolve
,
that
as
I
have
manifested
,
to
which
I
shall
refer
you
.
This
condition
most
clearly
appears
in
other
Texts
;
as
in
the
Where
when
the
first
king
of
the
Israelites
was
crowned
at
their
earnest
importunity
,
against
Gods
and
used
these
speeches
to
them
After
this
being
distressed
by
the
Philistines
,
weary
of
staying
for
and
presuming
to
offer
sacrifice
without
him
,
hereupon
said
to
NOW
THY
KINGDOM
SHALL
NOT
CONTINVE
,
BECAVSE
THOV
HAST
NOT
KEPT
THAT
WHICH
THE
LORD
COMMANDED
THEE
,
Lo
here
the
breach
of
Gods
conditions
by
king
forfeited
his
Kingdom
,
and
disinherited
his
posterity
of
it
.
So
when
he
performed
not
Gods
command
,
sharply
reprehending
him
for
this
offence
,
said
unto
him
,
(
namely
,
king
rebellion
against
Gods
command
,
not
subjects
rebellion
against
their
Prince
,
not
so
much
as
once
dreamed
off
in
this
Text
as
Court
Doctors
grosly
mistake
,
and
so
miserably
pervert
this
Scripture
contrary
to
the
sence
and
meaning
,
translating
it
from
kings
to
subjects
,
from
king
rebellion
against
God
,
to
subjects
rebellion
against
men
)
(
to
wit
,
of
renting
the
kingdom
from
him
)
After
which
I
have
reiected
him
from
Reigning
whereupon
he
went
and
annoynted
who
succeeded
him
in
the
kingdom
,
posterity
being
utterly
disinherited
for
his
recited
sins
.
After
this
when
God
setled
the
kingdom
upon
and
his
seed
after
him
,
it
was
upon
condition
of
obedience
,
and
threatning
of
corrections
even
by
men
,
if
they
transgressed
:
If
he
commit
iniquity
,
I
will
chastife
him
with
the
Rod
of
men
,
the
Stripes
of
the
Children
of
Men
:
(
that
is
,
will
not
chasten
him
immediately
by
my self
,
but
by
men
my
instruments
,
even
by
and
his
own
subjects
the
ten
Tribes
,
or
other
enemies
whom
will
raise
up
against
him
and
his
posteritie
,
yet
still
upon
condition
of
obedience
,
as
is
most
apparent
by
speech
to
king
If
he
continue
constant
to
do
my
Commandments
,
If
thou
seek
him
but
if
thou
forsake
him
,
he
will
cast
thee
off
for
ever
;
notwithstanding
the
former
Covenant
and
establishment
,
which
was
but
conditionall
,
not
absolute
,
as
the
renting
of
the
ten
Tribes
from
his
son
,
and
the
infallibly
evidence
.
Hence
we
read
in
the
that
Solomons
Solomon
;
Wherefore
thou
hast
not
kept
my
Covenant
I
will
surely
rend
the
Kingdom
from
thee
,
In
pursuance
whereof
the
Prophet
Israel
.
(
But
what
,
without
any
limitation
or
condition
at
all
think
you
?
No
such
matter
:
)
Loe
here
both
Kingdomes
of
Iudah
and
Israel
,
are
given
and
entailed
on
onely
upon
condition
of
good
behaviour
;
which
not
performed
,
they
shall
be
rent
from
either
:
And
was
this
only
a
vain
idle
condition
,
as
some
deem
the
Covenants
and
Coronation
oathes
of
Kings
to
God
and
their
Kingdoms
?
Surely
no
,
for
we
read
experimentall
verifications
of
them
in
King
(
FOR
THE
CAVSE
WAS
FROM
THE
LORD
,
the
people
answered
the
king
,
saying
For
this
thing
is
done
by
mee
.
Behold
here
an
experimentall
for
feiture
of
a
kingdome
,
and
translation
of
the
major
part
of
it
to
another
family
,
for
idolatry
,
executed
by
the
peple
through
Gods
appointment
;
which
being
fore-threatned
in
the
generall
by
God
himselfe
to
and
by
in
case
he
transgressed
,
predicted
by
way
of
menace
to
himselfe
and
his
Prophets
after
transgression
,
executed
by
the
people
by
Gods
speciall
direction
and
approbation
;
and
thus
owned
and
justified
by
in
the
peoples
behalfe
after
the
execution
,
when
would
have
made
war
against
them
for
this
revolt
,
must
certainly
be
acknowledged
,
not
only
a
iust
and
warrantable
action
in
respect
of
himselfe
,
but
likewise
of
the
people
,
unlesse
we
will
make
himselfe
the
Author
and
approver
of
rebellion
.
By
all
which
it
is
apparant
,
that
held
their
Crownes
onely
upon
condition
from
the
breach
whereof
might
and
did
forfeit
them
to
the
people
in
some
measure
:
And
so
did
too
,
hold
the
kingdome
of
Israel
newly
erected
by
the
people
after
this
revolt
,
upon
the
conditions
of
obedience
,
already
mentioned
,
which
being
violated
by
committing
idolatry
with
the
Calves
the
Prophet
sent
him
this
sharp
message
by
his
wife
,
Neither
was
this
an
unexcuted
commination
,
for
dying
,
and
(
by
Gods
just
judgement
After
which
which
judgement
was
actually
executed
upon
his
evill
sonne
king
Neither
was
this
a
vain
threatning
,
for
being
slain
at
Naboth
;
and
his
son
succeeding
him
,
both
in
his
Throne
and
sins
,
Iehoram
,
Ahaziah
Because
thou
hast
done
well
which
is
right
in
mine
eyes
,
Ahab
according
to
all
that
was
in
mine
heart
Which
action
of
being
thus
specially
commanded
,
commended
,
and
remunerated
with
such
a
temporell
reward
by
God
himself
,
must
questionlesse
be
lawfull
,
and
no
Treason
nor
Rebellion
in
unlesse
we
will
charge
God
to
be
both
the
Author
,
Approver
and
Rewarder
of
those
sinnes
.
After
this
walking
in
the
sins
of
though
God
deprived
him
not
for
it
,
yet
he
the
last
king
of
Race
,
going
in
his
Ancestors
was
slain
by
three
wicked
idolatrous
kings
of
were
by
Gods
just
judgement
,
successively
and
by
So
that
all
the
Kings
of
who
violated
Gods
Covenants
and
conditions
annexed
to
their
Crowns
,
did
for
the
most
part
lose
their
lives
,
Crownes
,
and
underwent
the
utter
extirpation
of
their
posterities
,
being
totally
cut
off
by
the
sword
,
neither
succeding
their
Parents
in
their
Crowns
nor
inheritances
.
And
though
the
royall
Crown
of
continned
in
Line
till
the
Captivity
of
the
last
king
of
his
Race
;
yet
when
ever
they
infringed
the
conditions
which
God
annexed
to
their
Crownes
,
and
turned
presently
(
by
way
of
revenge
)
either
brought
which
mastered
,
conquered
them
,
and
sometimes
deposed
and
carried
them
away
Captives
,
or
made
them
Tributaries
,
as
the
examples
of
King
afflicted
by
King
of
for
his
sinnes
and
idolatry
,
and
by
all
his
dayes
and
others
.
All
which
are
unanswerable
evidences
and
experimentall
demonstrations
,
that
the
Kingdoms
of
Iudah
and
Israel
were
both
held
of
God
upon
conditions
,
and
that
for
the
breach
of
these
conditions
they
might
be
,
and
oft
times
were
(
by
Gods
Iustice
on
them
)
both
lawfully
deprived
of
their
Crownes
,
and
their
posterities
,
disinherited
,
yea
,
totally
cut
off
for
ever
;
and
in
conclusion
,
both
these
most
eminent
Kingdoms
,
for
the
sins
of
kings
and
people
,
were
invaded
,
destroyed
,
and
both
Kings
with
people
carried
away
captives
by
their
enemies
,
into
forraigne
Countries
,
from
whence
the
whole
Nation
never
afterwards
returned
,
nor
ever
after
attained
to
a
king
and
kingdom
of
their
own
:
So
fatall
is
it
for
Kings
,
or
Kingdoms
to
break
those
Covenants
,
Laws
,
Conditions
which
God
himself
hath
prescribed
them
;
and
so
far
are
any
Kings
from
being
exempted
from
all
Laws
,
and
left
at
libertie
to
do
what
they
please
,
that
the
breach
of
them
proves
destructive
to
them
and
theirs
.

this

not
out
of

hatred

but
for
his
impietie
,
whereby
he
violated
the
chiefest
part
of
his
Oath
and
Covenant
;
whereupon
we
read
not

inflicted
on

they
brought

and
where
he
confesseth
and
that
the
Sanhedrin
had
a
power
above

king
in
some
cases
.
This
is
evident
,
not
onely
by
the
premises
,
but
by
sundry
impregnable
Texts
,
As
where
God
himselfe
in

very

,

And
to

as
the

:
From
all
which
,
it
is
irrefragable
;
that
their

were
as
much
,
if
not
more
obliged
to

and

kingdomes

,
as
the
Subjects
;

that
is
,
or
can
be
colourably

to
the
contrary
,
to

of

,
that
passage
of
where
king
confessing
his
sinnes

Adultery
and
Murther
to
God
,
useth
this
expression
Thee

Of

the
censures
of
their
Congregations
,

,
or

To
this
I
answer
first
That
no
doubt
by
his
adultry
and
murther
(
being
sinnes
against
the
second
Table
)
did
sinne
not
onely
against
God
,
but
and
his
wife
too
,
their
children
and

;

were

The
glosse
therefore
of
these
Fathers
,
is
point-blank
against
the
History
,
and
Text
it selfe
;
and
manifested
to
be
apparantly
false
by
all
the
premised
Scriptures
and
Authorities
.
Fourthly
,
the
true
reason
of
this
speech
of
Thée
onely
have
I
sinned
and
others
truly
observe
was
:
1.
Because
the
Prophet
tells
him
being
slain
,
and
his
wife
a
party
consenting
to
sinne
,
his
sinne
now
might
in
this
sence
be
said
,
and
as
it
deserves
eternall
punishment
,
is
properly
committed
against
none
but
therefore
in
this
regard
now
confessing
his
sinne
to
God
himselfe
,
useth
this
expression
and
rhetoricall
ingemination
,
Because
none
was
free
from
sinne
,
and
so
sit
to
be
his
Judge
in
that
respect
but
God
onely
.
is
many
times
taken
for
principally
or
especially
;
as
we
usually
say
,
and
the
Scripture
useth
this
phrase
in
this
sence
in
owne
ease
that
is
principally
for
he
committed
divers
sins
besides
,
as
himselfe
confessing
but
yet
this
was
his
to
wit
,
his
principall
sinne
:
so
in
divers
others
Texts
,
is
used
for
principally
;
as
So
here
that
is
,
I
have
principally
sinned
against
thee
alone
,
not
excluding
his
sinne
against
himselfe
,
and
others
,
whom
he
injured
thereby
.
6.
This
sinne
against
in
this
regard
therefore
these
Fathers
interpretations
may
be
Orthodox
,
that
But
had
he
made
a
common
trade
of
murthering
his
subjects
,
ravishing
their
wives
,
and
the
like
;
or
giving
himselfe
over
to
the
open
practice
of
grosse
Idolatry
,
(
a
sin
onely
against
God
himself
)
and
not
repented
of
,
or
humbled
himself
solemnly
for
it
,
as
he
did
for
these
sins
here
,
no
doubt
the
Congregation
or
might
upon
complaint
,
have
questioned
,
reprehended
,
and
censured
him
for
it
,
as
the
premises
plentifully
manifest
,
notwithstanding
the
priviledge
of
his
regalitie
,
which
,
as
it
exempted
him
not
from
the
guilt
,
so
not
from
the
punishment
due
unto
such
Crimes
,
whether
temporall
or
eternall
:
not
which
is
the
greatest
,
that
is
certain
,
therefore
not
from
the
temporall
,
which
is
the
lesse
.
Finally
,
God
himself
threatens
,
that
the
Rod
of
Men
,
and
the
Stripes
of
the
Children
of
Men
;
whence
the
Therefore
they
might
be
justly
censured
and
punished
by
men
for
their
transgressions
against
God
alone
,
notwithstanding
this
glosse
of
these
Fathers
,
true
only
in
som
sence
in
private
cases
,
and
sins
of
infirmity
against
private
men
,
not
of
publike
habituall
transgressions
.
The
second
Objection
is
that
Speech
of
to
the
people
Therefore
their
Kings
were
absolute
Monarchs
,
not
bound
to
Laws
,
nor
responsible
to
their
subjects
for
their
oppressions
,
nor
yet
resistible
by
them
.
Vttered
purposely
by
to
disswade
the
People
from
electing
a
King
,
&
changing
their
former
Aristocraticall
Government
,
into
a
Monarchicall
This
will
be
the
manner
of
the
King
that
shall
reign
over
you
,
He
will
take
,
and
he
will
do
thus
and
thus
to
judge
their
people
righteously
,
to
do
justice
and
judgement
,
and
not
any
wayes
to
oppresse
or
spoyle

,
his
maidservants
,
his
Oxe
,
or
his
Asse
,
or
any
thing
that
is
his
Neighbours
:
Secondly
,
it
is
Gods
expresse
Edict
,
(
or
expulsions
afterwards
executed
:
Which
punishment
God
would
never
have
inflicted
on
them
,
had
it
been
lawfull
for
the
Kings
of
and
possesse
or
give
them
to
their
servants
,
as
here
tels
them
their
Kings
will
do
:
This
clause
then
of
taking
their
from
them
,
by
the
King
,
without
their
consents
,
being
thus
diametrally
contrary
to
these
Texts
of
and
such
a
capitall
Crime
in
King
(
yea
,
contrary
to
the
practise
of
and
the
Gen.

)
can
no
wayes
be
warranted
as
a
just
royall
prerogative
lawfull
for
their
Kings
to
use
,
but
must
needs
be
branded
for
a
Tyrannicall
Oppression
.
Ye
shall
be
his
servants
And
ye
shall
crie
in
that
day
because
of
your
King
which
ye
have
chosen
you
,
and
the
Lord
will
not
hear
you
in
that
day

The

This
point
of
greatest
difficulty
and
concerment
,
I
have
largely
debated
and
confirmed
already
,
in
the
third
part
of
this
Discourse
,
where
all
contrary
Objections
against
it
,
are
refuted
;
Yet
because
it
still
seemes
a
seditious
unchristian
Paradox
to
many
Malignants
and
Royallists
,
I
shall
ratifie
it
with
such
new
Authorities
,
of
all
sorts
,
which
may
happily
convince
,
if
not
convert
them
from
their
inveterate
wilfull
error
.
My
first
Authority
of
this
kinde
,
is
that
passage
of
(
an
ancient
Ecclesiasticall
Historian
recited
and
approved
where
he
thus
writes
of
the
death
of
(
who
turned
both
a
of
the
Christians
)
reputed
to
be
slaine
by
a
Christian
Souldier
of
his
own
Army
,
for
his
Tyranny
and
impiety
.

A
pregnant
evidence
,
that
even
the
Primitive
Christians
(
on
whose
examples
and
practice
our
Antagonists
so
much
depend
,
though
to
no
purpose
,
as
I
have
elsewhere
manifested
)
held
it
not
only
lawfull
for
them
to
resist
,
but
even
in
some
cases
to
slay
a
persecuting
Apostatized
Tyrant
,
bent
●o

,

;
as
may
be
further
evidenced
by
Maxentius

Maximinus
That
tyrannicall
Princes
who
oppresse
and
invade
their
subjects
persons
,
liberties
,
estates
,
or
religion
,
may
both
lawfully
with
good
conscience
bee
forcibly
resisted

likewise

the
major
part
of

,
for

of
the
Republike
and

,
bee
justly
deposed

justly
deny
