Hitherto we have showed what this stately and lofty stile of Gods given to Rulers by God himself requireth of them: let us now see what it exacteth of us that live under them. That which the Apostles tell us both Peter and Paul. If Magistrates be Gods, and their power and place be of God, then must uevery soul be subject to the higher power, xnot ⟨p. 30⟩for fear of mans wrath but for conscience of God: Then ysubmit your selves you must to every humane ordinance for the Lords sake; be it unto the King as sovereign, or to Presidents and other inferior Governors, as those that be also sent of him.
