glorious Lord; though nflflft Chtill the Lord, yet the Lords Chrift, \

Gods annoint=ed.i This is a part-ieide fo heinous, To hortjiblc, that it
cannot be paralled by all the mutthers that ever were committed
finch the world began, but onely in the murthetof Chrifl. And in-
deed the providence of God gave me htft occafiort to inftitute this
parallell: for that day that out gracious Soveraxgnewase murthc-
._rcd, being the goflf lanuaty, a day for ever tO- be noted withaa
black coale, as his Majellie was at divine fcrvice, bcforehe was led
forth unto the fcaffold, the chapter that was read unto. -him-.. was the
feven and twentieth of St. matrbelws gofpell, which containea the
paflion of Chtifig and that chapter was read _not by choifc, but by
the ditefiion of the tubriek, it being the leilor-1 appointed for that
day, fo that we could not but conceive, that the murthcr than :9
be afied , ‘was like bu-into that which invthe chapter is defcribcdx.
And indeed you will finale it very. like unto it, if you will but
eonfider the three circumfianccs whichl before obferved in m
text, the dignity of the perfou mutthercd, the kind of deaththat

t has fuffercd, and the qualitic of the tnurthcrcrs. «

The petfon that was now murthcrcd», was not the Lord of glory 3

’ hum glorious Lord, Chtifts own: Vicar : his lieutenant and vice-

gcrent here on earth, within his dominions. And therefore by all

1”,-cs, divine,and‘humauc,fic was privileged from any pu.nilhment'

that could bee inflicted by men.‘ Albeit heewas as inferiour to
Chr-lg , as man is unto Godgthe creature , unto the immor-

mllctcator ; yet was his privilege of ittviolability farte more clear it

than was Chtifis. For Qhrifi was not a temporall Prince, his King-
dome was not of this world’, and therefore ‘whenihe vouchfafed to

come into the world, and to become the footie of man, he: did i
fubjefic hitnfclfo unto the law; lice. who out-..ly could choofe when
ltmbevbotne, made choife to.-be borne at that ttmetwhen there was at i

‘i they dielal1ovrc,% ‘a1:1d.'had' -fworne-allegience 5 arid therefore he
