1But with what punishments this wicked crime is to be punished, it is easily gathered, both out of the laws of God, and the laws of man. God punished Dathan and Abiran with the opening of the earth, upon Core and his fellows he sent fire, sometimes also he used the stinging of Serpents, and at length for this wicked crime above all other of the number of the Israelites, which were six hundred, three score and six thousand, when they came out of Egypt, there diminished so many in the space of .40. years, that two only, namely Joshua and Caleb entered into the land of Canaan. Also by the judgement of God Absalom came unto an evil end, and Sheba the son of Bichry, and Adonias, which moved sedition against David. But the Romans, as far as we can gather out of Livi and Plutarch, did put to death the tenth man of seditious Soldiers. The Civill laws, as it is had in the Code, in the title De Sedicionibus, l. 1. punished this wicked crime with extreme punishment, that is to say, with cutting of the head: or if they had a respect unto the dignity or condition of the person, they that were seditious, were sometimes hanged on a fork, and sometimes thrown to wild beasts, or banished into an Island, as it is written in the Digestes, De paenis, in the law Si quis aliquid.
1But with what punishmentes this wicked crime is to be punished, it is easely gathered, both out of the lawes of God, and the lawes of man. God punished Dathan and Abiran with the opening of the earth, vpon Core and his fellowes he sent fyre, sometimes also he vsed the stinging of Serpentes, and at length for this wicked crime aboue al other of the number of the Israelites, which wer sixe hundred, three score and sixe thousand, when they came out of Egipt, there diminished so many in the space of .40. yeares, that twoo onely, namely Iosua and Chaleb entred into the land of Chanaan. Also by the iudgement of God Absolon came vnto an euyl ende, and Syba the sonne of Bichry, and Adonias, which moued sedicion agaynst Dauid. But the Romanes, as farre as we can gather out of Liui and Plutarch, dyd put to death the tenth man of sedicious Soldiours. The Ciuill lawes, as it is had in the Code, in the title De Sedicionibus, l. 1. punished thys wycked cryme with extreme punishment, that is to saye, with cutting of the head: or if they had a respect vnto the dignity or condicion of the person, they that were sedicious, were somtymes hanged on a forke, and somtimes throwne to wylde beasts, or banished into an Ilande, as it is written in the Digestes, De paenis, in the law Si quis aliquid.
