Use 1 Here is a good direction for Magistrates that have a charge over people committed unto them, that they content not themselves with defending such as are under their government from idolaters,1 heretics, atheists, worldlings, and the like enemies, but that they cut off and destroy those dangerous and mischievous enemies. For this purpose the sword of God is committed into their hands: andk They are the Ministers of God, to take vengeance on such as do evil. lThus did that good King Josiah, and other good Kings.
