Who was like to Nebuchadnezzar, King of Babylon? he was the rod of the Lords wrath, he oppressed the people of God: fired and razed their City, sacked their Sanctuary,1 and spoiled their Ten ple, yet are the people commanded to pray for the life of Nebuchadnezzar King of Babylon, and for the life of Baltazar his son, that their days may be upon earth as the days of heaven. And ⟨p. 100⟩again God speaketh by the Prophet Jeremiah: I have caused you to be carried away Captives from Jerusalem unto Babylon. Seek the prosperity of the city, whether I have sent you away Captives, and pray unto the Lord for it: for in the peace thereof shall you have peace. If the Apostle withdrew not the Romans from the subjection of Nero, if the Prophets willed the children of Israel to pray for Nebuchadnezzar, who were wicked Princes, will Pope Pius tell the Subjects unto a godly and virtuous Lady, that they must not obey her?

And ⟨p. 100⟩againe God speaketh by the Prophet Hieremie: I haue caused you to be caried away Captiues from Ierusalem vnto Babylon. Seeke the prosperitie of the citie, whether I haue sent you away Captiues, and pray vnto the Lord for it: for in the peace thereof shall you haue peace. If the Apostle withdrewe not the Romanes from the subiection of Nero, if the Prophets willed the children of Israel to praye for Nabuchodonosor, who were wicked Princes, will Pope Pius tell the Subiectes vnto a godly and vertuous Ladie, that they muste not obeye hir?
