ting to every ordinance of man for
the Lord's sake, whether it be to the king as supreme,
or unto governors as unto them that are sent by him,
for the punishment of evil doers, and for the praise of
them that do well; teaching that this submission and
obedience is to be clear, absolute, and without
exception of any state or order of men. Also that they,
according to the Apostle's precept, exhort, that first
of all supplications, prayers, intercessions, and
giving of thanks be made for all men, for the king, and
all that are in authority; that we may lead a quiet and
peaceable life in all godliness and honesty; for this
is good and acceptable in the sight of God our Saviour;
and in especial manner that they press and oblige them
humbly to offer their most ardent and daily prayers at
the throne of grace, for the preservation of our
Sovereign Lord King Charles from the attempts of open
violence and secret machinations of perfidious
traitors; that the defender of the faith, being safe
under the defence of the Most High, may continue his
reign on earth till he exchange it for that of a late
and happy immortality."
