1But that we may know in what thing the unity of the people consisteth, let us give ear unto Augustine in his seconde book De civitate dei, who in his xxi. chapter bringeth something out of the books of Cicero de Repub. that are worthy to be known, where Scipio thus speaketh: Wise men called not every company a people,2 but a company associated together by consent of the law, and communion of utility. Wherefore there are two hands of the people, one is that they agree in the same laws of things divine and humane: the other is, that they have among themselves a communion of public utility. Whosoever rise up against these things, may justly be called seditious. Such tumults when they happen for doctrines of religion, or Ecclesiastical matters, are wont to be called schisms. And they are more grievous offenders in this wicked crime, namely of sedition, which first have sowed the matter, the cause and seeds thereof, although the other also which are adherents unto the authors thereof, are not unguilty.
1But that we may know in what thing the vnity of the people consisteth, let vs geue eare vnto Augustine in his seconde booke De ciuitate dei, who in hys xxi. chapter bryngeth something out of the bookes of Cicero de Repub. that are woorthy to be knowen, where Scipio thus speaketh: Wyse men called not euery company a people,2 but a company associated together by consent of the law, and communion of vtility. Wherefore there are twoo handes of the people, one is that they agree in the same lawes of thynges diuine and humane: the other is, that they haue among themselues a communion of publike vtility. Whosoeuer ryse vp agaynst these thynges, maye iustlye be called sedicious. Suche tumultes when they happen for doctrines of religion, or Ecclesiasticall matters, are woont to be called schismes. And they are more grieuous offenders in thys wycked crime, namely of sedicion, which first haue sowed the matter, the cause and seedes thereof, althoughe the other also which are adherentes vnto the authours thereof, are not vnguilty.
