But will it not yet seem more strange and incredble, that even our Spirituall builders too, those that pretended, to be joynt labourers with Christ for the aedification of his heavenly kingdome upon earth, should make it their Pulpit and their Lecture trade, to mete out to their auditors such large measure of factions and seditious doctrine each Market day, and like the Jewish High-priests move and incense the People to run raging up and down the streets with a Crucifie him, Crucifie him, and never cease watching at the doors, with their trayterous Petitions in their hands, till they had obtain'd their request, the Murder of their King, and the ruine of his Kingdom? And yet such unskilfull builders had unfortunate England on all sides set on work, who had a farre greater longing to grow rich upon the ruines, |
