Secondly, they may be ours in way of policy between man and man, that we may not have them by violence; not to have another mans riches and honour, but that we may have a politic right: this a wicked man may have by a politic right, to have it by the sweat of our brows, now this we crave also. Now the difference between the politic right of a natural man and spiritual man is this, the Lord doth only Lease out by his politic right these things to the wicked, but they sit at a rack-rent: But they are not so to the godly, they have them for their fee-simple by a politic right between man and man.
