[Rom. 13.7. Render therefore to all their Dues, Tribute to whom Tribute is due, Custom to whom Custom, Fear to whom Fear, Honour to whom Honour. Prov. 3.27. With-hold not good from them to whom it is due, [Hebr. from the Owners thereof] when it is in the power of thine hand to do it. Gal. 6.10. As we have opportunity, let us do good unto all Men, especially to them that are of the Household of Faith. 1 Thess. 5.15.

I would have you wise unto that which is Good, and simple unto that which is Evil. 1 Pet. 3.13.]
