But this is to be understand as touching his own Citizens, his native ⟨image 62⟩country men and Denizens, which enjoy the right of the City or province. Otherwise I do not think that he ought to use any violence toward strangers that pass to and fro, and which do occupy the trade of Merchandise, either inward or outward. Although also as touching those men, I think that he must diligently beware that they infect not the people with wicked doctrine.1 Wherefore I suppose that the steppes of the Israelites are to be followed, who made none a Jew or a Proselyte, neither endowed any with the right of their people, except first he circumcised himself, received the law of Moses, and communicated with their sacrifices. And seeing that that was so diligently observed of them, there is no cause, why our Princes ought not to do the like, namely to suffer none to be of their City, or as one of them, or a stranger to be made free, but first they should constrain him to services and ceremonies agreeing with the word of God.
But this is to bee vnderstande as touching his owne Citizens, hys natiue ⟨image 62⟩countrey men and Denizens, whiche enioye the ryght of the Citye or prouince. Otherwyse I do not thinke that he ought to vse any violence towarde straungers that passe to and fro, and whiche doo occupye the trade of Marchaundize, either inwarde or outwarde. Althoughe also as touching those men, I thynke that he must diligently beware that they infect not the people with wycked doctrine.1 Wherefore I suppose that the steppes of the Israelites are to be followed, who made none a Iewe or a Proselite, neyther endewed any with the right of their people, except first he circumcised hymselfe, receaued the lawe of Moyses, and communicated with their sacrifices. And seing that that was so diligently obserued of them, there is no cause, why our Princes ought not to doo the lyke, namely to suffer none to be of their City, or as one of them, or a straū ger to be made free, but first they shoulde constrayne hym to seruices and ceremonies agreing with the woord of God.
